Methods and systems for a vehicle transmission are provided. In one example, a vehicle transmission system includes a first planetary gear set rotationally coupled to a second planetary gear set and a first electrical machine rotationally coupled to a gear in the first planetary gear set. The vehicle transmission system further includes a second electrical machine rotationally coupled to a gear in the second planetary gear set and a first clutch configured to selectively disconnect the first and second planetary gear sets from a drive axle.

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.

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 filling and draining device for filling lubricant into and draining lubricant out of a housing (1), having a lubricant line (2, 21, 22) through which the lubricant passes into the housing (1), during filling, and through which the lubricant passes when the lubricant is drained from the housing (1). The housing (1) has a valve (6) through which the lubricant flows during filling and draining such that, for filling, the valve (6) adopts a first aperture width for the lubricant and, for draining, the valve (6) adopts a second aperture width for the lubricant.

A power shift transmission includes an input shaft and a gear housing including a gear assembly disposed therein. The gear assembly is driven by the input shaft. The transmission also includes an output shaft rotated by the gear assembly. The transmission also includes an auxiliary shaft extending through a portion of the gear housing. The auxiliary shaft is rotated by an internal combustion engine. The transmission also includes a clutch assembly movable from a disengaged position to an engaged position. The clutch assembly includes a first clutch portion coupled to the input shaft and a second clutch portion coupled to the auxiliary shaft. The second clutch portion transmits rotational force to the first clutch portion only with the clutch assembly in the engaged position. The transmission also includes an electric motor including an electric motor shaft in geared relationship with the first clutch portion.

A vehicle transmission (1) which comprises a lubrication system and a connection for attaching a power take-off module (9) to the vehicle transmission. The lubrication system is designed to lubricate the vehicle transmission and the power take-off module (9). The lubrication system has a pressure feed (13) and a lubricant line (12) fed with lubricant from the pressure feed. By way of a first section (12A), the lubricant line (12) leads to at least one lubrication point of the vehicle transmission and, by way of a second section (12B), to a lubricant tapping point (15) of the vehicle transmission for the power take-off module. A throttle (17) and a first valve (18), connected parallel to the throttle, are arranged in the second section (12B). The first valve (18) is designed to open toward the lubricant tapping point if the lubricant pressure rises to a first pressure level.

A transmission includes a transmission main housing, an intermediate plate secured to the transmission main housing; and a rear housing attached to the intermediate plate. An input shaft is connected to an extension shaft including a plurality of splitter gears selectively couple-able to the extension shaft. A main shaft is rotatably supported on the extension shaft and includes a plurality of main box gears selectively couple-able to the main shaft. A range shaft is drivingly connected to the main shaft and provides input to a planetary gear assembly, the range shaft being supported by a first bearing disposed within the intermediate plate and further including a bore disposed within a forward end. The extension shaft is supported at a first end by a bearing assembly within a partition wall and a second end is supported by a bearing assembly disposed within the bore in the range shaft.
