Methods and systems for a vehicle transmission are provided. In one example, a vehicle transmission system includes a first planetary gear set rotationally coupled to a second planetary gear set and a first electrical machine rotationally coupled to a gear in the first planetary gear set. The vehicle transmission system further includes a second electrical machine rotationally coupled to a gear in the second planetary gear set and a first clutch configured to selectively disconnect the first and second planetary gear sets from a drive axle.

A vehicle includes an engine, an electric generator, a power transmission device, a clutch, and a power generation controller. The electric generator is coupled to the engine. The power transmission device is configured to transmit driving power of the engine to a vehicle's driving wheel. The clutch is provided in the power transmission device and switchable between an engaged state in which the driving power of the engine is transmitted to the driving wheel and a disengaged state in which the driving power of the engine is not transmitted to the driving wheel. The power generation controller is configured to drive the engine and cause the electric generator to generate electric power by using the driving power of the engine. The clutch is switched to the disengaged state when a driver who drives the vehicle is determined to intend to stop the vehicle for a predetermined period or longer.

A system includes a PTO device that selectively couples to a driveline of a vehicle, a motor/generator electrically coupled to an electrical power storage system, and a shared load selectively powered by one of the driveline or the motor/generator. The PTO device further includes a coupling actuator that couples the shared load to the motor/generator at a first selected ratio in a first position, and couples the shared load to the driveline at a second selected ratio in a second position.

Disclosed is a modular transmission platform for a vehicle. The modular transmission platform comprises a first transmission shaft with at least one input shaft configured to be connected to at least one propulsion unit, a second transmission shaft rotatably connected to the first transmission shaft via a first transmission unit, and a third transmission shaft with a first output shaft configured to be connected to a propeller shaft. The third transmission shaft is rotatably connected to the second transmission shaft via a second transmission unit. The modular transmission platform comprises at least one second output shaft, configured for providing torque to equipment connected to the at least one second output shaft. The at least one input shaft and the first output shaft extend from the modular transmission platform in the same direction.

A vehicle drive device includes: a first oil passage that supplies oil discharged from the first hydraulic pump to the second transmission system; a second oil passage that supplies oil discharged from the second hydraulic pump to the first transmission system; a third oil passage that supplies the oil discharged from the second hydraulic pump to the first rotating electrical machine; and a fourth oil passage that supplies the oil discharged from the second hydraulic pump to the second rotating electrical machine.

An auxiliary generator drive for a belt driven generator being powered by an internal engine, the auxiliary generator drive including a hydraulic motor, wherein the hydraulic motor is arranged and adapted to drive the generator and to be driven via a hydraulic pump powered by the internal engine.

A drive axle system having at least one differential assembly, a first electric motor, and a second electric motor. The first electric motor and the second electric motor may be selectively connectable to the differential assembly. The first electric motor, the second electric motor, or both may provide torque to the differential assembly.

A transmission arrangement for a hybrid drive of a motor vehicle, in particular a utility vehicle. The transmission arrangement has a change-speed transmission (1), in particular a group transmission (1) with a drive output side (1b), a drive output flange (2) and a countershaft (VW). An add-on transmission (3) is arranged on the change-speed transmission (1) and has at least one electric machine (EM) and at least one gear ratio step (Ü1). The at least one electric machine (EM) is connected to the countershaft (VW) by way of the at least one gear ratio step (Ü1) and can be engaged as an additional electric drive.
