Types of rear axle gearbox gas 3307. Gearbox: a simple way to change the movement

The use of a gearbox in cars, or a device that provides transmission and conversion of torque, is quite justified and is a standard way of regulating the rotation of car wheels.

This is what the rear axle gearbox of a GAZ 3309 looks like

The design of the rear axle of the GAZ-3309 also provides for the installation of this device. Not only comfortable movement by car, but also traffic safety largely depends on its proper operation. Therefore, knowledge of the main design points, signs of malfunction and repair methods will greatly help the driver to promptly notice problems in the operation of the gearbox and eliminate any malfunctions that have arisen.

The rear axle of the GAZ-3309 car contains a pre-installed gearbox, identical to that used on the previous model of this line, GAZ-3307.

Rear axle gearbox design

It consists of the following main parts:

  1. Cast iron crankcase, connected to the rear axle housing by means of a bolted connection; To ensure tightness, a paranitic gasket is used.
  2. The drive gear is complete with couplings, bearings and flanges, directly connected to the driveshaft.
  3. The main transmission gears are of the hypoid type, with a deviation from the drive axis of 32 mm.
  4. A differential assembly, including tapered bearings, installed and bolted in the crankcase sockets under the covers, as well as an axle gear with four satellites located on the spider spikes.

One of the characteristics of a gearbox is the gear ratio, or the ratio of the number of teeth in the driven gear to their number in the drive gear.

The standard rear axle gearbox of the GAZ-3309 has a ratio of 6.83, that is, the number of teeth in a pair is 41 and 6, respectively. Some configurations of this vehicle have pre-installed models with a gear ratio of 4.55 (pair 41 to 9), which provides a higher speed mode module operation.

To ensure reliable operation of the gear mechanism and better movement of all parts, oil is poured into the crankcase through a special hole. When filling with oil, the following points must be taken into account:

The process of changing the oil in the gearbox

  • The volume of oil to be filled is 8.2 liters.
  • It is recommended to use TSp-14gip or SAE 85W-90 oil for refueling.
  • The frequency of oil changes is 50 thousand kilometers or more often in case of intensive operation with maximum load.
  • When pouring or adding oil, the quantity is controlled visually, that is, you need to pour oil until it begins to flow out over the edge.

GAZ-3309 gearbox repair

Since the gear unit is a rather complex mechanism that involves the interconnected movement of many components at high speeds, mechanical wear of its parts is inevitable. Correct operation and timely diagnostics will help to avoid premature failure of gear parts when the vehicle is moving.

Diagnostics of malfunctions of the gear mechanism of the rear axle of GAZ-3309

The initial diagnosis of the gear unit, as well as the rear axle as a whole, is to determine the presence of extraneous sounds when driving by ear.

Depending on the type and nature of newly appeared sound changes, possible faults can be assessed and localized in advance. You can identify some typical sounds of a faulty gear unit and determine the stages of repair.

View of the rear axle GAZ-3309

  • Sound characteristic Cause
  • Loud noise coming from the gearbox
  • Poor fastening of the drive gear
  • Incorrect setting of the nominal distance in the differential module or it has reached the output limit value
  • Bearing failure
  • Excessive howling at a high pitch,
  • accompanied by bridge overheating

This is what the rear axle gearbox looks like

  • Reduced lubricant level in the crankcase
  • Incorrect installation of internal contacts in the main gears
  • Whistling sound Lack of lubrication in the cardan connection module
  • Appearance of a noise effect with periodic occurrence
  • The driven gear is poorly secured
  • Misalignment in the installation of this part
  • Continuous grinding and crunching
  • Chips in gear teeth
  • Bearing failure
  • Excessive noise when cornering
  • Incorrect operation of the differential module, in particular, satellites
  • Violation of the gap setting in the differential module
  • Noise when starting to accelerate
  • The life of the differential module is exhausted or the gaps are set incorrectly
  • Noise when the engine is braking
  • Excessive backlash vibrations in the drive gear bearings or their service life.
  • The presence of foreign particles in the oil
  • Excessive knocking noises when starting to move
  • Differential module fault
  • Presence of greater clearance in gears

The appearance of these sounds requires immediate repairs, usually accompanied by dismantling the rear axle to remove the gear unit.

External view of the rear axle GAZ 3309

It should be noted that before proceeding with a major overhaul of the mechanism, it is advisable to additionally make sure that the disturbing sound comes directly from this part of the car.

Similar noises can accompany wear on the wheel bearings. To eliminate this possibility, you need to use a jack to hang the rear wheels one by one and spin them. If a characteristic sound appears, replace the hub bearings and re-check the rear axle gearbox of the GAZ-3307/3309 for the presence of extraneous sounds.

It is possible to eliminate some types of sound deviations without resorting to complete disassembly of the module.

Troubleshooting without disassembling the gearbox

Some deviations from the normal operation of the gear module are associated with a lack of oil in its block, its leakage or its poor quality, so the preliminary, simplest action would be to change the oil and provide the structural parts with constant high-quality lubrication.

When replacing, you need to pay attention to the following points:

The condition of the breather, a device that ensures equalization of internal and external pressure, as well as preventing contamination of internal surfaces. Contamination of the breather itself will cause oil leaks caused by excess internal pressure.

Therefore, periodic cleaning, checking its functionality or replacing it with a working one are among the activities carried out as part of the maintenance of the rear axle.

The tightness of the connection between the crankcase and the gearbox housing and the rear axle; When loosening the fastening, the bolts must be tightened. The tightening force is 10–12 kgm. If oil leakage continues through this connection, the oil seal, gasket and mounting bolts must be replaced.

Another module that requires lubrication is the drive gear oil seal bore. To check this unit, it is necessary to disconnect the propeller shaft with preliminary installation of connecting marks, unscrew the fastening nut and flange, and lubricate the hole. If during this procedure it turns out that the shank of the gear module has traces of oil, then it is necessary to additionally replace the oil seal.

It should be noted that the driveshaft must be disconnected with the rear part of the car suspended until the wheels rotate freely and the gear is set to neutral.

If such actions do not lead to the elimination of unnecessary sounds, it is necessary to disassemble the gear unit itself.

Adjusting the final drive of the rear axle GAZ-3307, 3309

The bearings and gearing of the main gears of GAZ-3309, 3307 are adjusted at the factory and, as a rule, do not require adjustment in operation. Their adjustment is necessary only after reassembling the bridge and when replacing any parts or when there is significant wear on the bearings.

The lateral clearance in the meshing of the main gears, which has increased due to tooth wear, cannot be reduced by adjustment, as this will lead to a disruption of the meshing of the teeth. This will result in increased noise or tooth breakage.

Play in tapered bearings should be eliminated without disturbing the relative position of the driven and drive gears. Below is the procedure for making various adjustments.

Adjusting the preload of the drive gear bearings of the GAZ-3307, 3309 gearbox

The need for bearing adjustment can be determined by the presence of axial play in the drive gear shaft.

Axial play is measured using an indicator device (the flange adapter is removed) when moving the drive gear shaft from one extreme position to another, and in the absence of a device, by rocking the flange by hand.

If there is axial play of the drive gear in tapered bearings of more than 0.03 mm, you must first tighten the flange nut. To do this, unscrew the nut and tighten it to a torque of 280-400 Nm (28-40 kg/cm).

If, after tightening the nut, the moment of resistance to rotation of the drive gear of the main drive of the rear axle is greater than the norm specified below, it means that the ends of the inner rings of the bearings and the adjusting ring are heavily worn.

In this case, to adjust the bearings, it is necessary to select a thicker ring. Adjusting rings, produced in thicknesses of 12.10-12.94 mm, are divided into 22 groups. The thickness of the rings of adjacent groups differs by 0.04 mm.

If the thickness of the adjusting ring exceeds the required one, then tightening the nut will not eliminate the backlash and increase the resistance when the drive gear rotates in the bearings.

In this case, it is necessary to adjust the preload of the axle main drive bearings by reducing the thickness of the adjusting ring installed between the inner rings of the tapered bearings.

To do this you need to do the following:

Remove the drive gear assembly;

Unscrew the flange mounting nut;

Remove the flange, oil seal cover, oil sump ring, outer bearing inner race and adjusting ring. Select an adjusting ring with a thinner thickness.

The reduction in ring thickness should be equal to the sum of the axial play measured by the indicator and the value of 0.05 mm (bearing preload).

Reassemble the coupling in reverse order and tighten the nut. When tightening the nut, it is necessary to rotate the drive gear of the main gear reducer GAZ-3309, 3307 for proper installation of the rollers in the bearings. Tighten the nut with the torque specified above, and one of its slots should coincide with the hole for the cotter pin.

You cannot even turn the nut back a little so that the hole for the cotter pin matches the slot of the nut, since insufficient tightening may cause the inner ring of the outer bearing to rotate, wear out the adjusting ring, and, as a result, increase the backlash of the drive gear.

Check the tightness of the bearings. With proper adjustment, the moment of resistance to rotation of the drive gear should be in the range of 1.5-3.0 Nm (0.15-0.30 kg/cm). The test should be carried out using a dynamometer.

To do this, clamp the coupling in a vice, hook the dynamometer hook onto the flange hole and smoothly turn the gear. The readings on the dynamometer scale should be in the range of 29-51 N (2.9-5.1 kgf).

If the moment of resistance to rotation of the bearings is within the normal range, you need to tighten the nut and install the drive gear assembly into the rear axle housing, otherwise you need to repeat the adjustment.

If it turns out that the torque resistance to rotation is less than the required one, it is necessary to reduce the thickness of the adjusting ring, and if it exceeds the required one, then it is necessary to select a ring of greater thickness.

Cars of the GAZ-53 family have not been produced since 1993, but they are still widely used in various fields. This is largely due to the simple design and reliability of its systems, units and mechanisms. This fully applies to the transmission, which will be discussed in this article.

s; . GAZ-53-12 (1983 - 1993) with a carrying capacity of 4.5 tons. In 1993, the GAZ-53 niche was occupied by more modern trucks of the GAZ-3307 (produced since 1989) and GAZ-3309 (since 1994) families, which, however, are conceptually and fundamentally no different from the GAZ-53 family. All trucks, regardless of modifications, have fundamentally the same transmission. They are built according to the classic design - these are rear-wheel drive cars (4x2 wheel arrangement) with a front-mounted engine, a manual transmission and a conventional dry single-plate clutch. The transmission structure of the GAZ-53 family of cars is quite simple, let’s look at it in more detail. The structure of the GAZ-53 transmission and the purpose of its components The transmission of GAZ-53 trucks is traditional for two-axle rear-wheel drive vehicles; it includes several components: .

Gearbox: an easy way to change motion

A device for converting and transmitting torque - a gearbox - is very widely used in technology. There was a place for the gearbox in the car, and not just one, but several at once. Read about what a gearbox is, what gearboxes are used in cars and for what purposes in this article.

Onboard (or wheel) gearboxes are very often used. Special mention needs to be made about each type of gearbox. Drive axle gearbox. This gearbox is necessary to transmit and change torque from the gearbox (via the driveshaft) to the wheels. At the same time, the drive axle ensures that the wheels rotate at different speeds when cornering, on uneven or slippery roads, and in other cases - this is achieved by using a differential based on a planetary mechanism. Onboard (wheel) gearboxes. This gearbox is installed at each wheel; it converts torque from the drive axle gearbox and transmits it directly to the wheel. This solution somewhat complicates the design of the car (since in this case three gearboxes are installed on one axle - a central one and two onboard ones), however, it has several advantages: - Ground clearance increases by reducing the size of the central gearbox; - Can be used in different cars

PAZ buses with automatic transmission: new cars for modern cities

Pavlovsk Bus Plant has been producing its buses since 1952, and all these sixty years PAZs have been faithfully serving in Russian cities and villages. In recent years, PAZ has set a course for modernization and the creation of truly modern machines. Among the plant's new products are PAZ city buses equipped with an automatic transmission. These machines will be discussed in this article.

Cars and buses are traditionally equipped with manual transmissions, since only they are able to provide the necessary dynamic characteristics of heavy vehicles. However, city buses are a completely different matter; they have been equipped with automatic transmissions for quite a long time, although this has never been a mass phenomenon in our country. A big step in this direction was made by the Pavlovsk Bus Plant, which since 2007 began installing automatic transmissions on its small bus PAZ-3237, and in the spring of 2013 introduced a completely new model of the medium-sized city bus PAZ-320412-05 “Vector” with an American automatic transmission Allison. The bus was created on the basis of earlier models, so the PAZ spare parts of the new models are unified with the more common old Pavlovsk buses. Work on medium-sized PAZ city buses with automatic transmission began in 2010; today the plant produces only one model, but this bus has already proven itself well.

When checking the fastening of the rear wheels, first loosen the outer wheel nuts, tighten the inner wheel nuts, and then tighten the outer wheel nuts. All bolted connections must be fully tightened. There should be no loosening of the fuel tank, platform mudguards, or hood. Check the engine mounts on the front and rear mounts and the jet thrust mounts by removing the engine mudguards. If the fastening is weakened, uncotter it, tighten the nuts of the front supports with a tightening torque of up to 8–10 kgm, the rear support with a tightening torque of up to 20–25 kgm and tighten them again. The tension of the threaded connections of the jet thrust fastenings should provide a shock-absorbing effect of the buffer without visible movements of the engine on the frame. Check the fastening of the front suspension shock absorbers and their brackets. The shock absorber mounting pin nuts on the front axle beam and on the frame bracket must be fully tightened; damage to the rubber bushings of the shock absorbers and fluid leakage are not allowed. If a leak is detected through the seals, you need to remove the shock absorber and tighten the reservoir nut with a tightening torque of up to 6 - 7 kgm. The tightening torque of the nut securing the bipod to the shaft should be in the range from 25 to 30 kgm. Check the fastening of the exhaust pipe of the muffler and the muffler to the frame. The passage of gases at the connection points is not allowed. Check the fastening of the front, rear and additional springs, the cab to the frame. The leaf springs must not have cracks or kinks; the fastening of clamps and spring ladders must be reliable. Tighten the stepladder nuts evenly with a tightening torque of up to 25–30 kgm and a tightening torque of the detachable lugs of 5–10 kgm. Rubber buffers limiting the travel of springs and their gaskets must not be damaged or loosened. Make sure that the brackets, gaskets, bolts and nuts securing the cabin to the frame are in good condition.

Introduction

GAZ-3307 And GAZ-3309- Russian trucks in the fourth generation family of medium-duty trucks produced by the Gorky Automobile Plant. The GAZ-3307 flatbed carburetor truck has been in mass production since the end of 1989, and the GAZ-3309 turbodiesel truck has been in production since mid-1994. The GAZ-3307 replaced the third-generation GAZ-52/53 family, which it completely replaced from the assembly line by the beginning of 1993. Trucks GAZ-3307 and GAZ-3309 with a load capacity of 4.5 tons are designed for operation on all types of paved roads and are characterized by high technical and operational indicators. The fourth family of GAZ trucks also included the 5-ton diesel truck GAZ-4301 (1984-1994) and the 3-ton diesel truck GAZ-3306 (1993-1995). Since 1999, the 2- and 2.3-ton off-road truck GAZ-3308 "Sadko" (4x4) has been produced, and since 2005 the 4-ton off-road truck GAZ-33086 "Countryman" has been produced.

Drive axle of a car is a unit designed to increase torque in the cardan, distribute this moment, and also transmit it to the drive wheel axle, which increases the traction forces of the wheels. The increase in torque and its supply at an angle of 90° is ensured by the main gear; torque is distributed between the drive axles of the wheels using a differential, and is transmitted to the drive wheels by axle shafts.
