A saddle-type vehicle includes a power unit including a multistage transmission having a plurality of gear positions, a transmission actuating mechanism for changing the gear positions, a shift spindle as an input shaft of the transmission actuating mechanism, a crankcase housing therein the multistage transmission and the transmission actuating mechanism, and a crankcase cover covering a side portion of the crankcase. The shift spindle is disposed in the periphery of the crankcase cover and is coupled to a shift actuator mounted on the crankcase cover by a joint rod. Such saddle-type vehicle having a power unit with a shift spindle movable by a shift actuator, in which the shift spindle and the shift actuator are combined with each other in a small-size layout with a joint rod joining the shift spindle and the shift actuator to each other, allows the joint rod to be installed in position with ease.

Split power hydro-mechanical transmission includes an input shaft and an output shaft, a torque converter and a planetary gear set, wherein the input shaft is connected to the turbine rotor and the ring gear or the sun gear, the pump rotor is connected to the sun gear or the ring gear, and the output shaft is connected to the planet carrier. This arrangement introduces strong positive feedback between the pump rotor and the turbine rotor, which results in large maximum torque ratio and large rate of growth of torque ratio, as well as large range of (naturally automatic) torque ratio variation.

A transmission system for a machine is coupled to an engine of the machine that is adapted to generate power. The transmission system includes a hydraulic power path including a variator coupled to the engine. The transmission system also includes a mechanical power path. The mechanical power path includes a first gear arrangement including a plurality of gears. The mechanical power path also includes a second gear arrangement including a plurality of gears. The second gear arrangement is coupled with the first gear arrangement to receive the variable rotational power from the first gear arrangement. The mechanical power path further includes a first clutch assembly and a second clutch assembly. Further, the second gear arrangement directs the variable rotational power received from the first gear arrangement towards a final output member of the machine in a selected direction.

The present invention relates to a water energy cleaner for a pool, including a housing which is provided with a water inlet in the middle position of the bottom; a hydraulic motor used for providing power for the cleaner; travelling mechanisms used for travelling; a reversing mechanism used for changing a travelling direction; and a rotating swing joint mechanism used for connecting an external water outlet pipe and capable of swinging and rotating back and forth relative to the housing, The rotating swing joint mechanism of the present invention can swing and rotate back and forth relative to the travelling direction of the cleaner, which is beneficial for preventing the cleaner from being easily affected by a water pipe when the cleaner climbs up the wall of the pool for cleaning.

A power apparatus including: a first engine (13) and a second engine (14) symmetrically arranged side by side; a first rotating shaft (21) connected to an output end of the first engine; a second rotating shaft (22) connected to an output end of the second engine; and a speed reducer (3) connected to the first rotating shaft and the second rotating shaft, where a side face of the first engine facing away from the second engine and a side face of the second engine facing away from the first engine are each provided with an exhaust port. Further provided is an unmanned helicopter including the power apparatus.

A gearbox for a vehicle includes: a housing; first and second shafts extending parallel to one another; first transmission gears mounted to the first shaft; and second transmission gears mounted to the second shaft. The transmission gears are helical gears. The first transmission gears are in constant mesh with the second transmission gears to form a plurality of gear pairings engageable to operate the gearbox in different gears. A drive gear is mounted to an input shaft extending into the housing. The input shaft is operatively connected to an engine of the vehicle. A driven gear is mounted to the second shaft and is configured to engage the drive gear. The drive and driven gears are spur gears. A flexible driving member is configured to drivingly connect one of the first shaft and the second shaft to an output shaft. A snowmobile including a gearbox is also contemplated.

A snowmobile has a gearbox having a first shaft, a second shaft, first transmission gears mounted to the first shaft and second transmission gears mounted to the second shaft. A driven gear mounted to the first shaft engages a forward drive gear mounted to a countershaft. In a first configuration: the first shaft is coupled to the countershaft; when rotating, a driveshaft rotates in a same direction as the countershaft; and configurable portions of the countershaft and second shaft are free of gears. In a second configuration: the forward drive gear is in selective free-spin engagement with the countershaft; a reverse drive gear mounted to the configurable portion of the countershaft is in driving engagement with the countershaft; an actuator selectively transmits rotary motion from the countershaft to the gearbox; a reverse driven gear mounted to the configurable portion of the second shaft meshes with the reverse drive gear.

A power transmission device for a vehicle includes a first power transmission path that is provided between an engine and a driving wheel, a second power transmission path that is provided in parallel with the first power transmission path, and an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit changes over a secondary clutch to a one-way mode while releasing a first clutch, when a request is made to change over a power transmission path between the engine and the driving wheel from the first power transmission path to the second power transmission path at a time of a predetermined state. The electronic control unit is configured to engage a second clutch when the secondary clutch is changed over to the one-way mode.

A drive-train of an agricultural machine, such as a tractor, has a power-split transmission (1) and a separate transfer case (2). The transfer case (2) can be connected to a drive motor and the gear ratio of the transfer case (2) can be adapted in such manner that the power-split transmission (1) can be used for various drive powers.
