A control device for a power transmission mechanism includes a controller. The power transmission mechanism includes an engagement mechanism and an operation mechanism including a movable member and a guide member. The guide member includes a plurality of guide areas being configured to move relative to the movable member to guide the movable member to an engaging position or to a disengaging position. The controller is configured to switch, when determining that a predetermined condition related to traveling of the vehicle is satisfied, a contact guide area that is in contact with the movable member to guide the movable member to the engaging position or to the disengaging position, from a first guide area to a second guide area that are included in the plurality of guide areas.

An electric vehicle includes a disc fixed to a housing. The electric vehicle also includes a first shaft connected to a motor and rotatable by the motor, and a second shaft connected to a wheel and spaced apart from the first shaft. Further, the electric vehicle includes a hub press-fitted to an outer circumference of the second shaft, and a sleeve spline-coupled with an outer circumference of the hub. The sleeve is slidable between the first shaft and the disc. The electric vehicle operates in any one of a driving mode, a neutral mode, and a parking mode according to a position of the sleeve.

A clutch assembly comprises an input shaft and an output shaft, co-axially arranged relative to the input shaft. The clutch assembly further comprises an input clutch drum, fixed to the input shaft, and an output clutch drum, translatable relative to the output shaft. The clutch assembly further comprises a clutch pack and a clutch piston that is translatable relative to the output shaft between, inclusively, a frictionally disengaged clutch-pack position and a frictionally engaged clutch-pack position. The clutch assembly additionally comprises a clutch-pack engagement spring. The output clutch drum is translatable between, inclusively, a fully disengaged position and, inclusively, a positively engaged position. When the clutch piston is in the frictionally disengaged clutch-pack position, the internal splines of the output clutch drum are not in mesh with the external splines of the input clutch drum.

A transmission gear synchronizer includes a sliding sleeve a hub and a blocker ring. The sliding sleeve has an inner surface defining a sleeve spline. The hub is received within the sliding sleeve. The hub has a plurality of gear teeth extending radially outward from a root diameter of the hub. The plurality of gear teeth are configured to engage the sleeve spine. A notch is disposed proximate the root diameter of the hub and spaced apart from the plurality of gear teeth. The blocker ring comprises a thermoplastic material. The blocker ring comprises a thermoplastic material. The blocker ring has a plurality of molded clutch teeth extending radially outward from a root diameter of the blocker ring. The plurality of molded clutch teeth are configured to engage the sleeve spline in response to the sliding sleeve engaging the blocker ring during a transmission shift event.

A clutch assembly for a lock includes a driver (1), having a driver shaft (9); a coupler (3); and a follower (2). The driver (1), the coupler (3) and the driver shaft (9) are configured to rotate concentrically together. The coupler (3) is configured to move along the central axis of the driver shaft (9) to couple to or decouple from the follower (2).
