ABSTRACT

A differential locking device is provided with a shifting element ( 20, 30 )
comprising a carrier ( 20 ) and a sliding sleeve ( 30 ). The carrier ( 20 )
has two carrier engagement sections ( 21, 22 ) a distance apart from one
another in the axial direction. The sliding sleeve ( 30 ) has two sleeve
engagement sections ( 31, 32 ) a distance apart from one another in the axial
direction. In a locking switched condition, the carrier engagement sections (
21, 22 ) and the sleeve engagement sections ( 31, 32 ) are engaged with one
another. In an unlocking switched condition, one of the carrier engagement
sections ( 21, 22 ) is arranged in the axial direction between the sleeve
engagement sections ( 31, 32 ), and one of the sleeve engagement sections (
31, 32 ) is arranged in the axial direction between the carrier engagement
sections ( 21, 22 ).
