Somebody spent many careful hours designing and machining all the different parts for each iteration of the model. A big tip of the hat to him! I learned about differential gears from The Way Things Work as a kid. This is hands-down the best explanation I've ever seen, and I really enjoyed it. I'm certain that this video clip can help non-mechanically-inclined people understand lots of other mechanisms more easily by showing how to visualize machine components in their most basic forms.
All the old instructional/educational videos are very well explained and great visuals to go along with them, not high picture quality, but they make it easier to understand
The reason those explicatory videos were so good is they were not made by some eloquent TH-camr but by a team of highly educated and skilled professionals ranging from engineers and artists to film-makers and narrators.

I'd love to have the history of car assembly summed up in this manner. It explains how things work through the history and order of logic which formed them, and I can much more easily understand logic than I can memorize a bunch of facts.
As a mechanical engineer and teacher - This is the best explanation of how a piece of technology works that I've ever had the privilege of watching. Thank you in the name of all those people who want to know and understand. Old School....New school ==>> The right kind of school !! For the person who said they couldn't remember the explanation...I wish I knew how to help you remeber. I think the best thing would be to build the model yourself possibly using the wheels of a toycar some matches paper glue and plastelina. A total of $5 dollar investment and a couple of hours of fun. Get others to do it with you. It can be a great project to do with kids.
That was seriously amazing. Very easy to follow and I feel like the instructor was on perfect pace. Definitely recommending to anyone interested in how gears work.
Great explanation - now I know how it works with my wife and I, when one's slow other got to be fast, and also when both pull together we go straight ahead instead of circles!
Those that disliked this video belong in the lower 1 percentile of human intelligence and are still having problem comprehending the concept of how differential gear works.....
I bet most people under 35 don't know what a differential is or where to find it on a vehicle... before anyone flips out and gets butthurt, the key word was " MOST ". AS IN 99.999999999%
Great .. great and amazing... in those days such a film was made.. hats off for those makers... very simple and easy to understand.. nice models, editing and nice commentary..
Problems then desire to solve then concepts then practices then development of the practices then achivement This show was a good example of every achivement
starts with the basics and proceeds towards the complex part. excellent video for educational purpose, it is so good that we can make ourselves one model to demonstrate the mechanism
I have been watching more and more of these old clips , Cox engines as well. and have to say we are really missing out some great teaching aids for our future engineers . Who remembers the Tufftey ads or safetey at sea clips . Once seen always remembered

Karts don't have a rear differential and so to overcome the problem of wheel sliding, when going round corners, they have a flexible chassis that twists and raises the rear-inside wheel off the ground when steering.

I love it when I stumble upon a video that explains something that seems complicated but it turns out to be pretty simple...now, throw in an ARB air locker and explain how that fits into the equation ;)
ha when i first saw it was black and white and heard the guys voice i thought "oh my god this is going to be rubbish" but then i saw it, and hey, it is a really good and really simple explanation. Thanks!
This video is amazing. Every time I forget (and it really happens!) how does differential work, I watch this and every time I wait until he gets to the point. I guess I must have a very little imagination to figure it out by myself :/
@ahmadclk while its off ,move one wheel, if the opposite wheel is rotating in the OPPOSITE direction so the answer is yes it has a differential, otherwise no. or to be more sure, turn the car on then hold ONE of the rotating wheels u should be able to stop ONE of them while the other should continue rotating .. but if u stopped one and the opposite one stops, so it has NO differential.
Fiat automobil released 2 years ago a car in Brazilian market witch has an option to block the differential automatic. Pushing just one button at the panelthe system is activate. This solution was adopted to provide to commons 4X2 front traction cars a cheap improvement behavior on off roads terrains. However this solutions is just efficient when the car is atol with one wheel in the air.
I learned how a differential worked when i got a Lego technic set. the car had working yellow pistons and a drive shaft. the differential had 3 small gears in similar arrangement and i remember being amazed how i could turn one wheel and hold the other and the engine still moved. the toy was a Lego Turbo command 8428
To this date, no video explanation could ever top this... What a WONDERFUL explanation of this concept!

This is why I prefer older videos - They convey a concept with working examples, and don't patronize the viewer.

Beautiful. I can guarantee that any kid would be fascinated by this or any similar concept if it was explained in such a brilliant way.
This is by far the best thing on youtube.
All of these years later, and this is the best explanation I've ever seen.
Hard to believe it was filmed about 90 years ago, isn't it?
I love how this old video without CGI, is much better at explaining how a differential works compared to the first 5 videos I've found on youtube.
So interesting and so well presented. I wish there were more incredibly-easy-to-follow instructional videos like this in the world!

It's so sad that manufactures no longer care to educate people like this. This video is genuinely good and teaches so much in so little time.
Great video. If you can explain one thing with very simple terms, then you really know that thing very well.

I'm a major motorhead, but I've always wondered how the differential worked. This video is amazing!!!
I want to know how a cam shaft works
Use this to explain simple mechanisms to my Robotics Classes.
Great video, clear and concise.

I always amaze myself on how complicated thing are really a junction of a lot of simple things, this video is awesome thank you

This explained differential better than anything I have seen about mechanics.
Great explanation - now I know how it works with my wife and I, when one's slow other got to be fast, and also when both pull together we go straight ahead instead of circles!
The way this video progresses is genius! Such a great teaching tool.
It is highly relevant the introduction of the lever concept to the gear concept.
Amazing. I've struggled with the concept of the differential for years and this made it impossible not to be able to understand

This video is so much better in explaining than those animations showing the 4 gears connected to each other!! thx.
I understood this very easily.. This is great teaching we need to go back to this style.
Mind Blown at the simplicity!
Differentials for dummies. Makes perfect sense and is a really cool video. I would like to see more like this.
Excellent gradual development of a hard to explain concept. I actually kinda like the first "useless" 4 minutes, too!
Probably the best explaination of something complex I ever had.
this is the best tutorial I have watched in youtube.
100 times better than new videos.perfect explanation of concept

OMG this was amazing!
Those guys way back when are now geniuses in my book...
Great video!
This is alot better then most CG for ease of understanding
Thank you so much! I'm in a basic automotive class and was so confused. Now I understand. Thank you. :)
omg legit i never ever woulda known shit about differentials till i saw this... awesomely helpful thanks!
ha when i first saw it was black and white and heard the guys voice i thought "oh my god this is going to be rubbish" but then i saw it, and hey, it is a really good and really simple explanation. Thanks!
Very simple yet effective way to explain the concept. Great video!
now i understand why i keep doing 1 wheeler peelers on turns LOL...best video explaining this ever
Such simplicity... without cgi.. Awsum
Wow - I had no idea engineering could be so interesting (if explained simply and well).
Thank you for posting - learnt something new today :-)
beautiful explanation sir,
i really had a hard time understanding differentials
but you made it seem very easy
thank you a lot sir
thanks a lot
What a beautiful explanation. Thank you for sharing.

Great video - very well explained - Thanks for posting it
Best explanation I've ever seen.
Just brilliant and simple, as so many old instructional films are.
A very clear explanation of a very interesting piece of machinery
This is good! A vintage tutorial but very good in explaining the concepts.
fantastic…. finally i understand the differential gear. thank you!
WOW!!!! I thought that just rotating the wheel at the same rate would work just fine. I guess there's more to a car than just the motor.
This is superbly demonstrated. Today, I learned.
To the videographer. Thank you for providing this video. Please provide a link to the full video. You cut the end of the video off too soon.
In love with Mechanical Engineering ;-)
If my professors had this type of announcer voice, I'd be so hooked on to every single word.
That was very easy to understand and also interesting. Gonna have to watch the other videos now!
I never thought of that. That the weels don't spin at the same time when you turn , and you can turn because the differentials
How would the basic principle of different speeds play on a very wide tire turning? I couldn't find anything ont this.
part 2? this was really good, but just got cut off lol
This has to be the simplest and most concise explanation of how a differential works. We will add more spokes!
What an amazing explanation. I actually understand it now!

That video really cleared a lot up for me about this. Thank you.
Sorry for my lack of understanding, why is the hinge only on the left side? Does it still work if the vehicle is making a right turn?
Yes.
