A control system includes a transmission with a directional clutch and control assembly clutches coupled together and configured for selective engagement to transfer power. A controller is configured to selectively actuate the directional clutch and the control assembly clutches with clutch commands to implement a first split mode in which combined power is transferred to drive the output shaft, a first direct drive mode in which power from only the engine to drive the output shaft, and a first series mode in which power is transferred from primarily the at least one motor to drive the output shaft. The controller is further configured to implement a transient boost function within at least a portion of the first series mode in which the at least one directional clutch is partially engaged to supplement power from the at least one motor with power from the engine to drive the output shaft.

A shift-by-wire shift unit for shifting a transmission of a vehicle between R, N, D and P states includes a mono-stable selector element that can be moved in opposite directions. The transmission states R and D can be reached by moving the selector element horizontally from the mono-stable position in a first and a second, opposite direction, respectively. The shift unit also includes a separate input element for changing to transmission state N. The transmission state is changeable from D to R directly by moving the selector element in the first direction, and from R to D directly by moving the selector element in the second direction. The selector element also includes a button element, and the shift unit is arranged such that, when the vehicle is at rest and the transmission is in D or R, actuating the button element effects a change to the transmission state P.

The present disclosure relates to a driving arrangement for a construction machine, such as an excavator, comprising a hydraulic pump for powering a working equipment and/or locomotion of the construction machine through a hydraulic circuit, an electric motor for driving the hydraulic pump, and a supporting device for mounting the driving arrangement to the construction machine, the supporting device comprising a plate-like mounting portion with two opposing mounting surfaces, wherein the hydraulic pump is mounted to one of the mounting surfaces and the electric motor is mounted to the other mounting surface, and wherein power of the electric motor is transferable to the hydraulic pump via a mechanical connection means extending across the mounting portion of the supporting device.

Some implementations can include a supplemental regenerative braking system comprising a power take-off section to receive mechanical energy, and an electric clutch to engage the power take-off section and transfer mechanical energy from the power take-off section to an output of the electric clutch. The system can also include a roller stop assembly coupled to the output of the electric clutch and constructed to transfer mechanical energy from the output of the electric clutch, and a generator coupled to the roller stop assembly. The system can further include a flywheel coupled to the generator.
