A vehicle includes a heat exchanger, a transmission, and a controller. The transmission is configured to transfer power within a powertrain. The transmission has a primary fluid circuit, a secondary fluid circuit, and a valve. The secondary fluid circuit is configured to divert the fluid from the primary fluid circuit and deliver the fluid to the heat exchanger. The valve is configured to control diverting fluid from the primary fluid circuit to the secondary fluid circuit. The controller is programmed to, in response to a temperature of the fluid being outside of a desired range, open the valve to direct the fluid toward the heat exchanger via the secondary fluid circuit. The controller is further programmed to, in response to the temperature of the fluid being within the desired range, close the valve to isolate the fluid from the secondary fluid circuit and the heat exchanger.

A control unit is provided, in particular a transmission control unit, which is designed to be attached to an outer side or to an inner side of a housing, in particular to a transmission housing, wherein the control unit comprises a circuit board as well as at least one plug which is arranged on the circuit board and whose pins are connected to corresponding conducting paths of the circuit board, which is arranged in such a way that it reaches into an opening within the housing and to produce an electrical and/or signal connection between the outer side and the inner side of the housing via conducting paths that are arranged on the circuit board, wherein an overmolding is enclosing at least the circuit board and the plug(s).

An electro-mechanical transmission shifter preferably includes a first actuator, a second actuator, a shift linkage device, actuator mounting bracket, a programmable controller and a gear shift remote. The shift linkage device includes a mounting base plate, a first transmission shifting bracket, a second transmission shifting bracket and a linkage rod. The linkage rod couples the first and second transmission shifting brackets. The actuation rods of the first and second actuators are pivotally connected to the first and second transmission shifting brackets, respectively. A mounting end of the first and second actuators are retained on the actuator mounting bracket with first and second clevis blocks. The programmable controller receives a signal from a gear selector remote to change a gear in a transmission. The programmable controller also monitors the electrical current sent to the first and second actuators.

In a power transmission device for a vehicle, comprising: a transaxle casing in which a motor and a voltage power line are housed; and a cover attached so as to close an opening of the transaxle casing, the cover includes a flange portion provided at an outer edge portion of the cover and connected to the opening of the transaxle casing, a bearing support portion for a bearing that supports a rotary shaft rotatably, and a cover wall provided between the flange portion and the bearing support portion, and a valve body is attached to the cover wall so as to be positioned at a portion of the cover wall at which a direct distance between the bearing support portion and the flange portion surrounding the bearing support portion is longest.

A solenoid assembly includes a solenoid adapted to be coupled to a solenoid connecting member extending from a support member. The solenoid assembly also includes a retaining bracket having a body portion and a securing portion. The body portion is adapted to be removably coupled to the support member. The securing portion is removably coupled to the solenoid. The retaining bracket is moveable between an unsecured position, and a secured position. The securing portion of the retaining bracket provides a spring force to the solenoid when the retaining bracket is in the secured position such that the solenoid is biased toward the solenoid connecting member to secure the solenoid between the solenoid connecting member and the securing portion of said retaining bracket.

A gear assembly has a gear housing. A first component group is arranged in a first partial area within the gear housing. The first component group includes at least one sensor element and/or at least one actuator. A remote control device is coupled to the first component group so that signals can be exchanged by way of a bus system.

Disclosed herein is a gear actuator for a double clutch transmission, which includes a power module (100), including odd and even-numbered stage select solenoids and shift motors, a controller directly connected to them, and select levers connected to select rods of the select solenoids, shift modules (200) for transmitting the rotational forces of the shift motors to a control shaft assembly (300), the control shaft assembly (300) for transmitting the operating force of the power module (100) to a shift lug, and a body housing (400) having the power module (100), the shift modules (200), and the control shaft assembly (300) installed therein. Accordingly, the gear actuator can have a more compact structure and be easily assembled by modularization.

A tree feller-buncher includes a felling head having a saw blade, an engine carried by an undercarriage, a hydraulic system operably connected to the engine, at least one transient operably connected to the hydraulic system, and an electric system operably connected to the engine, the electric system configured to operate the saw blade.

A solenoid assembly includes a solenoid adapted to be coupled to a solenoid connecting member, with the solenoid connecting member extending from a support member. The solenoid assembly also includes a retaining bracket having a body portion and a securing portion extending from the body portion.
