Device and method for providing rotational power using power transmission are disclosed. The device enables multi-dimensional and angle-agnostic displacement of the rotational power output with respect to the input location and transference of high-torque and high-speed rotational movement, while preserving maximal efficiency and quick response. The device is a transmission gear that comprises at least two gear-links in a multi-link articulated gear (MLAG). Each of the links comprising at least two gear wheels. The transmission gear further comprising a common axis adapted to allow the links to rotate freely with respect to each other about the common axis and thus to allow change of the angle between the at least two links and thereby to change the distance between the input shaft and the output shaft.

A transmission device 10 coupled to a processor energy source 12 having one or more processor driving rollers 14. The processor 12 provides energy to the transmission device 10. Multiple driven winch drive rollers 32 are supported by the body 18. A vertically-oriented propeller shaft 36 coupled with an implement such as a chipper are attached to the body 18.

Examples in the disclosure relate to an apparatus and method for disassembling automatic transmission shaft assemblies. The apparatus may include a body portion defining multiple gear lands oriented normal to a pressing direction, each gear land having a semi-circular shape partially encompassing a central opening. The apparatus may include a moveable portion limited to movement between generally opposing positions, movement thereof reconfiguring the apparatus to enable positioning of a plurality of transmission shaft assemblies each having a unique configuration. The method may include sequentially placing each transmission shaft on the fixture, pressing the transmission shaft to remove press-fit components, and reconfiguring the fixture to enable positioning of a next shaft assembly, each shaft assembly having a unique configuration of press-fit components.

A roller pinion for rotating about a central axis generally includes a core having an axial bore at its center for mounting on a drive shaft and recesses extending the length of the core. The recesses define faces with a plurality of regularly distributed sectors extending between them. The roller pinion also includes a cage associated with a plurality of rollers. The cage extends around the outer peripheral surface of the core, and presents, facing the outer peripheral surface of the core, a concentric spherical inner surface that faces the recesses of the core. Protuberances are provided that extend into the recesses. The protuberances have faces positioned parallel to and facing the faces of the recesses. Metal strips arranged in bundles with elastomer material interposed between the strips are inserted in a space between the respective faces of one recess in the core and one protuberance of the cage.
