Axle

Axle Wheel
The automobile axle is a small wheel which is attached to a bigger wheel to work together. It is a central shaft for a rotating wheel or gear.

Characteristics of Axle
  • The wheel and axle must be put together and rotate about a common axis.
  • It is a small circular metal object. It attaches the wheel to the object it is moving.
  • To protect the axle it can be enclosed in a housing.
  • Axle may be fixed in position with a bearing or bushing sitting inside the hole in the wheel or gear so that the wheel or gear can rotate around the axle.
  • In other cases, the wheel or gear may be fixed to the axle, with bearings or bushings provided at the mounting points where the axle is supported.
Functions of Axle
  • Motorcycle axle maintains the position of the wheels, relative to each other and to the vehicle body.
  • Axle has to bear the weight of the vehicle because the wheel is the only part of the vehicle which is touching the ground.
  • Axle can also help to serve the purpose of driving, braking and steering.
