A shifting assembly for a transmission at least has a first component, a second component, and a third component, the components interacting according to the shift state in that a friction clutch is arranged between the first component and the second component, a positively-locking clutch is arranged between the second component and the third component, and a freewheel unit is arranged between the second component and the third component. A connection means is provided which connects a clutch part of the friction clutch to a clutch part of the positively-locking clutch.

An actuation mechanism including one or more motors having an output shaft with a sun gear. A sun gear of a non-back drivable planetary gear assembly is drivingly connected to at least a portion of one or more planetary gears. The one or more planetary gears are drivingly connected to at least a portion of the sun gear, a carrier, a fixed non-rotating ring gear and a selectively rotatable output ring gear. The disclosure further relates to a method of operating an actuation mechanism that is drivingly connected to at least a portion of a vehicle parking mechanism. The method includes providing an actuation mechanism, providing a parking mechanism and one or more sensors that are operably configured to collect an amount of data to be analyzed. Based on the data analyzed, one or more failures within the parking mechanism may be determined and an alert may be sent.

A compact utility loader compact utility loader comprising a frame, and a pair of loader arms supported by the frame. The frame includes a right side, a left side, and a bottom side extending between the right side and the left side. The compact utility loader additionally includes an engine mount secured to the bottom side of the frame and spaced apart from each of the left side and the right side of the frame. The compact utility loader further comprises an engine supported on the engine mount.

The centrifugal positive locking brake works inversely, that means, locking upon stopping and decoupling on start-up. When the drive motor is de-energized, the fixed ratchet(s) hit against at least one locking abutment on a locking disc positively fixed to the frame and lock the shutter. When voltage is applied, and with the associated quick start-up of the drive motor , the ratchet(s) disengage because of their inertia. This centrifugal positive locking brake for shutter drives is operated with a specially designed control method. After the power supply is interrupted, the ratchet(s) are drawn inward by the reloaded spring(s) so that they run against the locking abutment(s) and the shutter reliably locks in this position.

A rotary lock system includes a gear configured to be driven to rotate via an engine. The rotary lock system includes a rotatable starter component configured to engage the gear via an interface. The interface includes a circumferential gap to enable the gear to rotate through an angle before contacting and driving the rotatable starter component.

An electrohydraulic transmission control system having a parking lock valve by which a parking lock cylinder of a parking lock device can be charged with an actuation pressure adjustable in an operating-state-dependent manner by at least one pilot pressure adjustable in the region of an electrohydraulic pressure adjuster and/or one pressure source. Above a defined actuation pressure level, the parking lock valve can be held in a defined operating state in which the actuation pressure can be applied to the parking lock cylinder. The actuation and pilot pressures can be applied to a valve device such that when the actuation and pilot pressure levels approximately correspond to one another, the region of the control system which conducts the actuation pressure is operatively connected, upstream of the parking lock valve, to a pressure region in the region of the valve device with a pressure lower than the defined actuation pressure level.

An electrohydraulic transmission control system (1) includes a parking lock valve (2). The electrohydraulic transmission control system (1) is configured such that, during normal operation of the electrohydraulic transmission control system (1) in which at least one electrohydraulic pressure adjuster (EDSSYS) is actuatable with current, the parking lock valve (2) can be held in a defined operating state in which an actuation pressure (p_sys) acts on a parking lock cylinder (3) above a normal pressure level. The electrohydraulic transmission control system (1) is configured such that, during emergency operation of the electrohydraulic transmission control system (1) in which the at least one electrohydraulic pressure adjuster (EDSSYS) is not fed with current and the actuation pressure (p_sys) is at least temporarily set to an emergency pressure level higher than the normal pressure level by the at least one pressure source (7), a pressure level of the actuation pressure (p_sys) that holds the parking lock valve (2) in the defined operating state corresponds at least approximately to the emergency pressure level.

A brake system for maintaining an angular position of a spindle assembly. A pump-powered motor drives rotation of a spindle on the machine. When no rotation is desired, the spindle will slow, then stop at a desired angular orientation. A rotational sensor will determine the clock position, and a controller compares that to a desired angular orientation. If an error tolerance is exceeded, the motor will rotate the spindle back to the desired orientation.

A wheel locking mechanism, suitable for locking a wheel of a pushchair, the mechanism comprising: a rotatable member, adapted to be mounted on the hub of a wheel, whereby the rotatable member is co-rotatable with, and by rotation of, the wheel, said rotatable member comprising a locking surface, and a non-rotatable member, comprising a locking pin adapted to selectively cooperate with the locking surface of the rotatable member, whereby the relative positions of the rotatable and non-rotatable members are lockable. Also disclosed is a pushchair comprising a chassis having a rear axle, at each end of which a wheel is mountable, wherein each end of the rear axle is provided with such a wheel locking mechanism.

A number of variations may include a product comprising an output shaft having a radial flange comprising a plurality of teeth; a range shifter operatively connected to the output shaft constructed and arranged to selectively shift a vehicle between a low range, high range, and neutral mode; a mode shifter operatively connected to the output shaft constructed and arranged to shift the vehicle between a four-wheel and two-wheel drive mode; a dual drive gear operatively attached to the output shaft between the range shifter and the mode shifter constructed and arranged so that rotation of the dual drive gear drives the range shifter and the mode shifter; and at least one plunger radially displaced around the output shaft which is actuated by the dual drive gear to engage a slot between the plurality of teeth on the output shaft to prevent rotation of the shaft during a range shift.
