Transmission apparatus of hybrid vehicle
09835231 · 2017-12-05 · ·

A transmission apparatus of a hybrid vehicle is provided. The apparatus includes a planetary gear set including a first rotation element connected to an engine, a second rotation element connected to a first motor/generator, and a third rotation element connected to a second motor/generator. An output gear is connected to any one of the second and third rotation elements and a two-way clutch is mounted at the first rotation element. The clutch limits D stage rotation in a first side direction or limits R stage rotation in a second side direction selectively based on a position of a lever. Accordingly, the clutch performs a failsafe function by preventing a shifting stage from being applied to the R stage when the engine is driven.

SHIFTING APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE
20170335958 · 2017-11-23 · ·

The present disclosure relates to a shifting apparatus for a vehicle which includes a transmission realizing series of multi shift stages so that shift stages are sequentially increased as shift ratios are decreased. The shifting apparatus may include a shift limit means designating a lowest shift stage having a largest shift ratio to a shift stage for climbing and limiting so that a driver may select the shift stage for climbing in an only case that the vehicle satisfies a predetermined climbing condition; a gradient angle sensor for measuring a climb gradient of the vehicle; a vehicle speed sensor for measuring a vehicle speed; and a controller determining the climbing condition based on signals of the gradient angle sensor and the vehicle speed sensor so as to control the shift limit means.

Electro-mechanical actuator for automatic transmission

The present disclosure relates to a vehicle transmission system that includes a transmission component and an electro-mechanical actuator coupled to the transmission component. The electro-mechanical actuator includes an electric motor and a solenoid that are configured to maintain the transmission component in one of a park position and a non-park position upon receipt of a command. The electric motor and the solenoid are also configured to prevent the transmission component from returning to the park position upon receipt of the command. Further, the electric motor and solenoid are configured to receive the command from a vehicle control system.

AN ATTACHMENT FOR THE SHIFTER OF A GEARBOX OF A VEHICLE

The invention is a shift lockout guide for a vehicle equipped with a manual gearbox. It includes a user-operable means that, in preferred embodiments, is mounted to the shifter of the gear box and is linked to an engagement portion that interacts with guide plates defining a path of travel for the shifter. A biasing means urges the engagement portion into the guide plates but this can be overridden by the driver through the user-operable means. The invention provides the driver of a vehicle fitted with the invention in the selection of specific gears while also preventing certain other gears from being selected. This reduces the risk of inadvertent overrevving of the vehicle's engine through inappropriate gear selection.

HAND LEVER TO PROVISIONALLY DISENGAGE A PARKING LOCK BY HAND

A lever (3) for the temporary disengagement of a parking lock (2) of a vehicle drive unit (1). The lever (3) comprises a fixing piece (31) for fitting the lever (3) onto a parking lock shaft (26), which extends inside the vehicle drive unit (1) and serves to actuate the parking lock (2). The lever (3) is a hand lever with a gripping handle (32). The gripping handle (32) is designed to enable a user to apply a manual force for manual actuation of the lever (3). When the lever (3) is fitted on the parking lock shaft (26) and moved, the parking lock shaft (26) is moved from an engagement position to a disengagement position,. In the disengagement position, by further movement of the gripping handle (32) into a locking position, the lever (3) is blocked against a reverse movement out of the disengagement position.
