Transmission arrangement
A transmission arrangement includes a hydrostatic transmission in which a hydrostatic unit functioning as a pump is hydraulically connected to a hydrostatic unit functioning as a motor in order to transfer drive power. The arrangement is configured with structure for damping hydraulic pressure fluctuations. The structure is assigned to a hydraulic line connecting at least one of the hydrostatic units.

Single-axis agricultural machine with continuous speed variation and independent power take-off
A single-axis agricultural machine with continuous speed variation and independent power take-off includes an internal combustion engine, a clutch assembly, wheels, a power take-off for work tools controlled by a gearbox, and a guide handlebar with controls. A primary shaft extends from the clutch assembly and controls a gear reduction, at the output of which a coupling transmits the motion to a shaft of the power take-off. A hydrostatic assembly draws motion from the internal combustion engine through the clutch assembly, a first kinematic chain being coupled thereto, and is connected to a second kinematic chain that retracts in the gearbox and that controls an axle of the wheels through a final reduction. Three shaft assemblies transmit motion respectively from the engine toward the power take-off, from the engine toward the hydrostatic pump, from the hydrostatic motor to the final reduction, and from the final reduction toward the wheel axle, the three shaft assemblies being arranged orthogonal to each other.
HYDROSTATIC TORQUE CONVERTER AND TORQUE AMPLIFIER
An example includes a hydraulically controllable coupling to couple a rotating input and to an output to rotate, or to decouple the input and the output, with coupling and decoupling modes selected by switching a hydraulic device such as a vane pump between a pumping mode and a mode in which it does not pump. In an example, the system cooperates with a transmission to increase the number of possible gear ratios in some examples.

Hydraulic motor-pump with fixed or variable displacement
The fixed or variable displacement hydraulic motor-pump (1) includes a motor-pump central rotor (3) in which a hydraulic cylinder (14) is arranged, the rotor (3) being in sealed contact with an input-output spool valve (43) connecting the cylinder (14) with a motor-pump frame (2) while a hydraulic piston (13) moves in the cylinder (14) to push, using a hydraulic piston guided plunger (18), a tangential arm (22) articulated in the central rotor (3), and a tangential arm antifriction roller (28) on a motor-pump peripheral rotor (29) synchronized in rotation with the motor-pump central rotor (3).

SYSTEM FOR DRIVING A HYDRAULIC MEMBER
System for driving a member (10) by means of a hydraulic circuit, comprising: a hydraulic energy source (100) adapted to deliver a pressure in the hydraulic circuit, a drive member (200), comprising: a casing (210) with a first orifice (212) and a second orifice (214), a primary hydraulic machine (230) housed in the casing (210) and a pressure booster (300) integrated into the casing (210), said pressure booster (300) being adapted to selectively raise the pressure, such that the pressure difference between the two orifices (232, 234) of the primary hydraulic machine (230) is greater than the pressure difference between the two orifices (212, 214) of the casing (210).
