A hybrid module for a motor vehicle for coupling an internal combustion engine includes a disconnect clutch, an electrical machine, a dual-clutch device, a disconnect clutch actuating system, a first actuating system, and a second actuating system. The disconnect clutch is for transmitting a first torque from the internal combustion engine to the hybrid module and disconnecting the hybrid module from the internal combustion engine. The dual-clutch device includes a first partial clutch and a second partial clutch. The disconnect clutch actuating system is for actuating the disconnect clutch. The first actuating system is for actuating the first partial clutch. The second actuating system is for actuating the second partial clutch. The disconnect clutch actuating system, the first actuating system, and the second actuating system are arranged next to one another in an axial direction.

A vessel propulsion apparatus includes a first transmission path that transmits the power of an engine to a propeller shaft, a second transmission path that transmits the power of a motor to the propeller shaft, and a controller. A first clutch cuts off the power transmission of the first transmission path in a first disconnection state, and permits the power transmission of the first transmission path in a first connection state. A second clutch cuts off the power transmission of the second transmission path in a second disconnection state, and permits the power transmission of the second transmission path in a second connection state. The controller executes tuning control of both the engine and the motor when the first clutch is switched between the first disconnection state and the first connection state and when the second clutch is switched between the second connection state and the second disconnection state.

Claw-type shifting mechanism (5) with a first sliding sleeve (17) and a fixed coupling element (19). In order to produce a passage, the first sliding sleeve (17) and the coupling element (19) each respectively have at least one recess (31, 35) and at least one web section (32, 36), in which the first sliding sleeve (17) and the coupling element (19) can be arranged together radially on the outside on a first shaft. The first sliding sleeve (17) can be displaced along the first shaft and the coupling element (19) can be connected firmly to the first shaft. The drive arrangement (1) comprises at least one drive machine, a transmission with a first shaft, a second shaft and a third shaft, a housing, and a claw-type shifting mechanism (5) of this type.

A driving force distribution apparatus distributes and outputs, to a first clutch hub and a second clutch hub, a driving force input from a driving source. The driving force distribution apparatus includes a clutch housing to which a driving force is input, a first multi-disc clutch disposed between the clutch housing and the first clutch hub, and a second multi-disc clutch disposed between the clutch housing and the second clutch hub. A first pressing mechanism that presses the first multi-disc clutch includes an annular pressing portion disposed between a bottom wall portion of the clutch housing and the first multi-disc clutch, legs inserted in insertion holes formed in the bottom wall portion, and a lubricating oil introduction portion that guides lubricating oil supplied from the clearance between the first clutch hub and the bottom wall portion toward the first multi-disc clutch.

A fluid distribution apparatus for an axle assembly, the fluid distribution apparatus including a cylindrical portion rotatably disposed about a bearing race. A conical portion is coupled with the cylindrical portion, and a retaining portion is coupled with the conical portion. A plurality of circumferentially spaced tubes are coupled with the retaining portion, wherein the tubes are at least partially disposed through a rotating component of a clutch.

A collar and a torque transmission apparatus having a collar. The collar may have a set of collar teeth. Each collar tooth may include a first end surface, a second end surface, a first collar side surface, and a second collar side surface. The first and second collar side surfaces may be concave from the first end surface to the second end surface.

A multi-axle drive device and method for operating a multi-axle drive device. The multi-axle drive device is provided with a synchronization clutch present in an operational connection between a first output shaft and a connecting shaft and at least one disconnecting clutch present in an operational connection between the connecting shaft and a second output shaft. The synchronization clutch and the disconnecting clutch are opened in a first operating state and closed in a second operating state. At the same time, with an intended change from the second operating state to the first operating state, the synchronization clutch is maintained at least partially opened and the separation clutch is maintained closed, so that, when a first operating mode is carried out, the disconnecting clutch is opened, and when a second operating mode is carried out, the synchronization clutch is closed again.

A drive mechanism for a skidloader including multiple clutch packs, where each clutch pack selectively connects a drive motor to a corresponding wheel assembly via a unique drive path. More specifically, each drive path produces a unique drive ratio between the drive motor and the corresponding wheel assembly such that the drive mechanism is adjustable between a first drive configuration, in which the motor and wheel assembly are in operable communication via first drive path, a second drive configuration, in which the motor and wheel assembly are in operable communication via a second drive path, and a park configuration, in which the motor and the wheel assembly are in operable communication via both the first drive path and the second drive path.
