A turbomachine dual spool differential can include a gear assembly configured to combine a low pressure spool input and a high pressure spool input into a combination output to provide an output speed range smaller than a low pressure spool speed range alone. The gear assembly can include a ring gear, a sun gear, and a plurality of planetary gears disposed between the sun gear and the ring gear and meshed with the sun gear and the ring gear. The planetary gears can be rotationally connected to a carrier.

A control system (10) for controlling the pitch of a propeller (50), the system comprising a propeller shaft (60), a blade swivel device (20) having a rotary control element (22) suitable for placing the blades (52) in an angular position corresponding to a desired propeller pitch, and a transmission (12) presenting an outlet member coupled in rotation with the rotary control element (22) of the blade swivel device (20).

The transmission (12) includes a variable speed drive (70) having drive, control, and outlet rotors that are coupled in rotation respectively with the propeller shaft (60), with a control member, and with the outlet member of the transmission.

By means of the variable speed drive (70), the speed of rotation of the outlet member of the transmission is a predetermined function of the speeds of rotation not only of the propeller shaft, but also of the control member.

A torque converter that is downsized in an axial direction utilizing existing space is provided. A pump impeller, a turbine runner, a lockup clutch, an elastic damper, and a planetary unit are held in a housing. A torsional vibration damping device is arranged concentrically with the lockup clutch. An input element is arranged concentrically with the lockup clutch while being connected to the lockup clutch and a drive member. An output element is connected to a driven member.

A robust ground traction (drive) assembly for remotely controlled vehicles, which not only operates smoothly on surfaces that are flat, but also upon surfaces that include rugged terrain, snow, mud, and sand, is provided. The assembly includes a sun gear and a braking gear. The sun gear is configured to cause rotational force to be applied to second planetary gears through a coupling of first planetary gears. The braking gear is configured to cause the assembly (or the second planetary gears) to rotate around the braking gear when an obstacle or braking force is applied.

A roll stabilizer for a motor vehicle having a housing (137, 237) with a first stabilizer element (110, 210) coupled to the housing and an electric motor (150, 250) located in the housing (137, 237). The transmission (160, 260) is coupled to the electric motor (150, 250) on a drive side, and the output side of the transmission (160, 260) is coupled to a second stabilizer element (115, 215) such that the stabilizer elements are electromechanically rotatable with respect to one another. The electric motor is designed as a Vernier motor.
