GEAR-SHIFTING DEVICE FOR VEHICLE
A gear-shifting device for a vehicle is provided and includes a guide body that has a first end portion connected to a control shaft, installed so that a second end portion is rotated at the first end portion as an axis in a rotational displacement that corresponds to a selecting path to perform a selecting operation, and installed to be moved in a substantially straight displacement that corresponds to a shifting path along an axis direction of the first end portion to perform a shifting operation. A guide unit is disposed to distinguish each shifting path on the selecting path in which the second end portion of the guide body is rotated and is configured to guide the second end portion of the guide body to be movable along the shifting path.
System and method for synchronizing engine and transmission system operation within an agricultural vehicle
A system and method for controlling a transmission system is provided. One agricultural vehicle includes a vehicle controller configured to instruct an engine controller to maintain an engine at a constant speed and to receive a first signal from a transmission controller indicative of gear shift initiation. The vehicle controller is also configured to instruct the engine controller to maintain the engine at a current torque upon receipt of the first signal and to receive a second signal from the transmission controller indicative of gear shift completion. The vehicle controller is configured to instruct the engine controller to maintain the engine at the constant speed upon receipt of the second signal.

Shift-by-wire selector control system for a motor vehicle transmission
A method for operating a multi-stable shift-by wire selector control system of a motor vehicle transmission. The multi-stable shift-by wire selector control system includes a multi-stable selector which is operable by the driver of the vehicle to select a respective one of the operating modes of the transmission, an arrangement of illuminated labels indicating the selector mode and an indexing mechanism for maintaining the immobilization of the selector in its different positions.

ELECTRIC CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION AND METHODS THEREFOR
In one example, an assembly is provided comprising a transmission at least partially enclosed in a housing. The transmission includes a planetary gear set coupled to a multispeed sub-transmission. The planetary gear set is configured to be coupled to a first electric machine and an internal combustion engine on a first side, and configured to be coupled to a second electric machine on a second side, where the first side and the second are defined by a vertical plane that is perpendicular to a central axis of rotation of the planetary gear set. The first electric machine, the second electric machine, and the internal combustion engine are arranged outside of the housing.

Disconnector for hybrid vehicle
A disconnector for a hybrid vehicle, which can accurately control interruption or transmission of rotary power by accurately measuring and monitoring a transfer distance of a shift fork using a linear sensor while interrupting or transmitting the rotary power of an engine or a motor using the shift fork.

TRANSMISSION SYSTEM AND SHIFTING METHOD
Systems and methods for a transmission. The transmission system operating method includes, in one example, re-estimating a time for each phase of an alternate gear shift in response to determining one or more conditions that are indicative of an operator's intent to implement the alternate gear shift. The method further includes performing one or more gear change phases that reduce a duration to implement the alternate gear shift based on the re-estimated time for each phase of the alternate gear shift.
