A continuously variable transmission with both equal-difference output and equal-ratio output includes an input mechanism, a hydraulic transmission mechanism, a planetary-gear-set convergence mechanism, an equal-difference output mechanism, an equal-ratio output mechanism, a clutch assembly, and a brake. The clutch assembly connects an output end of the input mechanism to an input end of the hydraulic transmission mechanism and the planetary-gear-set convergence mechanism and connects an output end of the hydraulic transmission mechanism to the planetary-gear-set convergence mechanism. The clutch assembly connects the planetary-gear-set convergence mechanism to the equal-difference output mechanism and the equal-ratio output mechanism. The clutch assembly connects the equal-ratio output mechanism to the equal-difference output mechanism. A continuously changing transmission ratio between the input mechanism and the equal-difference output mechanism/the equal-ratio output mechanism is provided by adjusting a displacement ratio of the hydraulic transmission mechanism and selectively controlling engagement of the clutch assembly and the brake.

Power takeoff devices (PTOs) are useful for mounting on transmissions and for performing, directly or indirectly, useful work via the mechanical energy generated by the PTO's rotatable output shaft. Systems and methods for reducing PTO gear rattle include an input gear carried on a shaft sleeve mounted on a shaft extending between opposing spaced apart walls of a PTO housing. The shaft sleeve is moveable in an axial direction along the shaft, the travel of the shaft sleeve in each direction being limited by contacting the respective wall. The shaft sleeve is biased to remain spaced apart from the walls, thereby reducing or eliminating gear rattle.

A power take-off (PTO) drive assembly for a transmission includes a shaft defining a shaft axis, a PTO gear defined radially about the shaft axis, and a clutch assembly positioned between the shaft and the PTO gear and having an engaged position and a disengaged position. When the clutch assembly is in the engaged position, torque is transferred from the shaft to the PTO gear. When the clutch assembly is in the disengaged position, torque is not transferred from the shaft to the PTO gear.

A drive axle system having at least one differential assembly, a first electric motor, and a second electric motor. The first electric motor and the second electric motor may be selectively connectable to the differential assembly. The first electric motor, the second electric motor, or both may provide torque to the differential assembly.

A front wheel clutch and a front wheel acceleration clutch are supported to a front wheel transmission shaft. Between the front wheel clutch and the front wheel acceleration clutch, there is provided a holder supporting the front wheel transmission shaft. A first operational oil passage for switching over the front wheel clutch is defined respectively in and between the holder and the front wheel transmission shaft. A second operational oil passage for switching over the front wheel acceleration clutch is defined respectively in and between the holder and the front wheel transmission shaft.

A transmission includes a drive element, a first output element, a primary transmission unit, a reversing unit, and an intermediate gearbox. At least two of the at least five shifting elements of the primary transmission unit, at least one of the at least two shifting elements of the reversing unit, and at least one of the at least two shifting elements of the intermediate gearbox are activatable in combinations of at least four shifting elements so as to establish at least twelve forward gears between the drive element and the first output element.

A traveling transmission device of a tractor including a transmission case to which power from an engine is inputted via an input shaft, a speed changer transmission section provided inside the transmission case and configured to input power from the input shaft and to speed-change the inputted power and output it, and a rear wheel differential mechanism provided inside the transmission case and configured to input power outputted from the speed changer transmission section and transmit the inputted power to left and right rear wheels. The speed changer transmission section includes a plurality of speed changer sections configured to speed-change power from the input shaft by a gear coupling mechanism and a multiple-disc clutch and output it, and, inside the transmission case, an oil feeding pipe extends upwardly of the speed changer transmission section and a discharge nozzle connects to respective portions of the plurality of speed changer sections.

A work machine includes an engine, a hydraulic pump, a work apparatus driver to receive a pressurized fluid, a hydraulic circuit connecting the hydraulic pump with the work apparatus driver, a control valve in the hydraulic circuit, a relief valve connected to a first portion upstream of the control valve, a drain path connected to a second portion upstream of the first portion, an on-off valve to open and close the drain path, and a controller to control the on-off valve based on a state of the engine. The controller is configured or programmed to keep the on-off valve open after detecting an operation to start the engine until detecting a start of the engine and to close the on-off valve in response to detecting the start of the engine.

A transmission includes an input shaft coupled to a prime mover, a countershaft, main shaft, and an output shaft, with gears between the countershaft and the main shaft. A shift actuator selectively couples the input shaft to the main shaft by rotatably coupling gears between the countershaft and the main shaft. The shift actuator is mounted on an exterior wall of a housing including the countershaft and the main shaft. An integrated actuator housing is operationally coupled to the shift actuator and a linear clutch actuator. The linear clutch actuator is a self-adjusting actuator, and the transmission includes a self-adjusting clutch.
