Abstract

See full text

A split solid axle arrangement for a vehicle is provided that is arranged to impart a downward force on a wheel of the vehicle. The axle arrangement includes an axle member coupled to a wheel hub at one end and an axle gear member at another end. A drive shaft is attached at one end to a torque transfer mechanism and at another end to a shaft gear member. The drive shaft is orientated perpendicular to the axle member and the shaft gear member is arranged to engage the axle gear member so as to transfer torque from the torque transfer mechanism to the axle member and drive the wheel hub. The drive shaft is arranged to rotate in a direction so as to provide a downward force on the wheel through a transfer of torque from the torque transfer mechanism to the wheel hub.
