Torque transmitting device
A torque transmitting device for transmitting torque between a first drive element and an output element, having a torque transmitting unit with a housing delimiting a first fluid chamber filled with a liquid, and a separating clutch arranged outside of the torque transmitting unit and the first fluid chamber in a second fluid chamber separated from the first chamber and which selectively transmits torque between the first drive element and the torque transmitting unit. The separating clutch has a clutch output that is connectable to a clutch input via a friction device and a clutch actuator that comprises a pressing element and an actuation element to which fluid pressure can be applied to move the actuation element. The pressing element is arranged within the second fluid chamber, and the actuation element is at least partly arranged within the first fluid chamber so that pressure is applied thereto by fluid pressure.
Control of a continuously variable transmission in a mixer
A transmission system for a feed mixer including a continuously variable transmission (CVT) is provided. The CVT includes a mechanical loop and a hydrostatic loop. The CVT is operated so that the mechanical portion of the CVT is prevented from overtaking the hydrostatic portion of the CVT at start up of the CVT.
System for a power take off mechanism for a powertrain system
A system for a power take-off mechanism for a powertrain system is provided. The system includes an electrically powered torque generating device including a torque generating device output shaft and a transmission output shaft receiving mechanical power from the torque generating device output shaft. The system further includes a clutch selectively disengaging the transmission output shaft from the torque generating device output shaft and a power take-off module receiving mechanical power from the torque generating device.
Hydrodynamic torque converter
A hydrodynamic torque converter (1) with a pump wheel (3) and with a turbine wheel (4), and with a torsion damper (8) and with an intermediate space (12) located between the turbine wheel (4) and the torsion damper (8), and with a torus formed by the pump wheel (3) and the turbine wheel (4) for hydraulic fluid. A flow-guiding wall (14) is provided, which deflects a radially outward flow of hydraulic fluid coming from the torus, back radially inward to the intermediate space (12).
Torsion spring using tensile stress
A torsion damper includes an input carrier and an output carrier. The input carrier is configured to rotate about an axis and receive an input torque from a prime mover, such as an engine. An output carrier is spaced along the axis from the input carrier and is configured to transfer an output torque to a transmission component. The torsion damper includes two rings, namely a first ring connected to the input carrier and a second ring connected to the output carrier. The first and second rings are spaced apart from one another. A plurality of rolling elements are disposed between and connect the first and second rings. Rotation of the input carrier relative to the output carrier causes the rings to rotate, forcing the first ring to be in compression and the second to be in tension.
TORQUE TRANSMISSION APPARATUS HAVING DRY-OPERATED SEPARATING CLUTCH
A torque transmission apparatus for transmitting a torque between a first drive element and an output element, including a torque converter, having a torque converter input, which is rotatable about a rotation axis (A) and is coupled to the first drive element, and a torque converter output, which can be connected to the output element. A separating clutch arranged outside of the torque converter and effectively between the first drive element and the torque converter, having a clutch input and a clutch output, which can be connected thereto by the action of a clutch actuating apparatus The clutch actuating apparatus having a pressure means chamber and a pressure means channel (K4) supplying said pressure means chamber with pressure means, and the separating clutch being dry-operated and the pressure means channel (K4) extending through the torque converter at least in portions.
P2 MODULE ARCHITECTURE
A device for power transmission between an output of a drive engine and an input of a transmission. The device includes a torque converter, an electric motor at least partially axially overlapping the torque converter, a damper system having an input adapted to be driven by the output of the drive engine, and a clutch coupled between the damper system and the torque converter and configured to connect and disconnect the damper with the torque converter.
INTEGRATED TORQUE CONVERTER AND P2 MODULE
An assembly for power transmission between an output of a drive engine and an input of a transmission. The assembly includes a torque converter and a P2 module that are axially engage and retained for flexibility in assembling of the assembly. The P2 module including a clutch and an electric motor.
Compact torque converter assembly for hybrid module
A hybrid module comprising a rotor assembly including a rotor carrier and a torque converter completely disposed radially inside of the rotor carrier is provided. The torque converter assembly includes an impeller having an impeller shell fixed to the rotor carrier such that the impeller shell and the rotor carrier form a housing of the torque converter.
DRIVE UNIT FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLE
A motor generator including a rotor and a motor output shaft that rotates integrally with the rotor, a connecting shaft capable of rotating coaxially with the motor output shaft, a hydraulic clutch interposed between the rotor and the connecting shaft, the hydraulic clutch switching transmission and non-transmission of torque between the rotor and the connecting shaft, and an auxiliary to be driven by rotation of the input shaft are provided. The input shaft of the auxiliary is mechanically linked with the connecting shaft.
