Patent ID: 7252184

Claim:
A transfer case ( 12 ) for distributing a driving torque of an input shaft ( 19 ) between a first and a second drivable output shafts ( 22 , 29 ), the transfer case ( 12 ) comprising a first and a second controllable and adjustable frictionally engaged clutches (k_VA, k_HA) U each being arranged between the input shaft ( 19 ) and the respective first and second drivable output shafts ( 22 , 29 ) and whose transfer capabilities can be independently adjusted via separate actuating devices ( 10 , 11 ), a driving torque can be distributed between the two drivable output shafts ( 22 , 29 ) in dependence upon set transfer capabilities of the clutches (k_VA, k_HA) and a first clutch (k_VA) is radially enclosed by a second clutch (k_HA).
