Product Description
The semi-axle refers to the transmission shaft connecting the transmission and the wheels, also known as the drive shaft. It belongs to the driving system of automobile.
In automobile operation, the semi-axle plays an important role in transmitting power from the transmission to the wheels. When the engine generates power, the power is transmitted to the half shaft through the transmission, and the half shaft transmits the power to the wheels. In this way, the wheels can turn and push the car forward.
Half-axle usually consists of a hollow metal shaft and two CV(Constant Velocity) joints connected at both ends of the shaft. CV joint can make the axle shaft keep constant transmission efficiency when turning, and at the same time allow the axle shaft to keep certain elasticity during the movement of suspension system.
Because the semi-axle is in the driving system of the automobile and undertakes high-load work, it needs to have sufficient strength and durability. At the same time, the axle shaft needs to be flexible to adapt to the suspension movement and steering operation of the wheel.
In a word, the semi-axle plays a key role in transmitting power from the transmission to the wheels in automobile operation and is an important part of the drive system.
