* Chapter 3 power train SEA * Review 1: What’s the function of drive shaft and UJ? To transmit the drive from the transmission mainshaft to the final drive pinion; To have some allowance for motion between the final drive and transmission. 1) The suspension connects the final drive assembly to the car body. The final drive moves up and down in relation to the engine and transmission. A coupling is needed that permits movement between the final drive and transmission. The universal joints (U-joints) and sliding joints provide this coupling. 悬架连接着主减速器总成和车身。主减速器相对于发动机和变速器上下运动，这样就需要一个连接器来允许主减速器和变速器之间相对运动。万向节和滑动联轴节提供了这种连接作用． Review 2: List the types of UJ (Universal joints). Non-constant Velocity Universal Joint Constant Velocity Universal Joint Near-constant Velocity Universal Joint Cardan (Hooke’s) Universal Joint （十字轴式万向节） Double Cardan Universal Joint （双联式万向节） Rzeppa Universal Joint （球笼式万向节） Tripod Universal Joint （三销轴式万向节） Weiss Universal Joint （球叉式万向节） Flexible Universal Joint （挠性万向节） 2) Here two U-shaped pieces are placed perpendicular to one another and joined with a simple cross [Fig. 3-16]. The U-shaped pieces are called yokes. The cross that connects them is called a spider. The arms that extend from the spider are called trunnions. The two yokes are at a 90o angle to one another. Most cars have two universal joints, one at each end of the propeller shaft. 两个U形片垂直布置，通过十字叉连接在一起。U形片称为万向节叉，连接万向节叉的十字叉叫作十字轴，从十字轴延伸出的臂叫作耳轴，两个万向节叉成90o布置。多数汽车采用两个万向节，在传动轴的每一端各有一个万向节。 3) A shaft which receives the drive from a cross type joint varies its speed during rotation; the greater the drive angle the greater the speed variation. A constant rotational speed can be restored by fitting a second joint in a way such that when the first joint increases its speed the second joint decreases its speed. 传动轴接收十字轴式万向节传来的动力，转动时其速度发生变化。传动角越大，速度变化越大。要实现等速，必须以某种方式安装第二个万向节，这样第一个万向节使转速增大，第二个万向节就使转速减少。 Review 3: List the main parts o
