Wheel loader
To curb temperature rises in a control device for a supercharger and extend the life of the control device for the supercharger, a work vehicle includes a variable geometry supercharger with variable boost pressure, and a working device driven by pressure oil discharged from a working hydraulic pump, the work vehicle further including: a supercharger control device adapted to control the supercharger; a temperature detection device adapted to detect temperature of the supercharger control device; and a main control device adapted to limit at least one of maximum rotational speed of an engine and maximum vehicle speed of the work vehicle in case the temperature of the supercharger control device is above a predetermined temperature as compared to case the temperature of the supercharger control device is below the predetermined temperature.
Vehicle transmission
A vehicle transmission includes a shift lever including a receiving unit formed therein, a bullet in which at least a portion thereof is inserted and disposed within the receiving unit of the shift lever, and a detent groove unit which allows the bullet to advance or retreat depending on a profile of a contact surface in contact with the bullet as the shift lever rotates. The bullet includes a guide aperture formed longitudinally along an advancement-retreat direction of the bullet, and a fixing pin having at least one end thereof fixed to the receiving unit is inserted into the guide aperture.

Shifter mechanism with manual shift function
An automatic transmission shifter mechanism that is selectable between an automatic transmission mode and a manual shifting mode, including a shifter assembly configured to move in a first range of movement to be positioned in the automatic transmission mode, and to move in a second range of movement to selectively shift gears up and down in the manual shifting mode, a first sensor configured to sense that the shifter assembly is in the automatic transmission mode in response to the shifter assembly being in the first range of movement, and at least a second sensor configured to sense gear changes in the manual shifting mode, wherein the shifter assembly is configured to be selectively moved laterally from the first range of movement to the second range of movement when in a drive mode in the first range of movement.
DETENT DEVICE AND TRANSMISSION
A detent device for a transmission, having a shifting element, first and second end-position retaining configurations arranged at first and second positions, respectively on the shifting element, the second position is different from the first, and a neutral retaining configuration arranged on the shifting element at a third position different from the first and second positions. A latching first detent element which, depending on the position of the shifting element, latches either at the first or second end positions in the first or second end-position retaining configurations, respectively, and another latching detent element, which latches in the neutral retaining configuration when the shifting element is in its neutral position. The neutral retaining configuration has a retaining contour which is designed and/or orientated differently on the shifting element from the first end-position retaining configuration and from the second end-position retaining configuration. A transmission with a detent device.
Transmission parking system including neutral state maintaining lock and release device
A transmission parking system is provided. The system includes a parking gear and a parking rod that is connected with the parking gear. Additionally, a parking lever has a first end that is connected with the parking rod and the parking lever is installed rotatably around a control shaft. A detent return spring is wound around an exterior circumference of the control shaft, supports the parking lever, and provides elastic force to rotate the parking lever and return to an original position. A control lever is installed rotatably around the control shaft and is installed at an exterior side of the parking lever to allow user operation. A neutral state maintaining lock and release device is connected with the control lever and is changed to a neutral state lock or a neutral state release based on operation of the control lever.
Interrocker assembly
An interrocker assembly for a transmission includes at least two shift forks for actuating gears in the transmission, each of the at least two shift forks being pivotal and having an end offset relative to each other, at least two actuators cooperating with the at least two shift forks, one of the at least two actuators cooperating with one of the at least two shift forks, and an interrocker being pivotally movable and cooperating with each of the at least two shift forks to securely prevent two gears from being engaged at the same time.
Device for preventing inadvertent selection of a parking lock function in a transmission
A device and method for preventing inadvertent selection of a parking lock function in a 2-ratio transmission. Here, the shift positions of the transmission and the parking lock function thereof can be selected by way of a shift drum. A mechanically acting apparatus is provided which, in the event of rotation of the shift drum in a first direction of rotation, blocks the selection of a parking lock position of the shift drum, subsequently, in the event of rotation of the shift drum in a second direction of rotation opposite to the first direction of rotation, releases the blocking, and subsequently, in the first direction of rotation opposite to the second direction of rotation, permits selection of the parking lock position. The device does not require a separate parking lock wheel.
DRIVE UNIT
Torque is transmitted from an electric motor to an output unit through different gear trains depending on direction of rotation of the electric motor. The drive unit includes an electric motor, a first gear train, a second gear train, a third gear train, and a moving mechanism. The first gear train includes a first drive gear, a first driven gear, and a clutch member. The clutch member moves inside the first driven gear and receives torque transmitted from the first driven gear. The second gear train transmits to an output unit the torque transmitted from the first gear train. The third gear train transmits to the output unit the torque transmitted from the first gear train. The moving mechanism axially moves the clutch member toward the second drive gear when the electric motor is forwardly rotated and toward the third drive gear when the electric motor is reversely rotated.
Device for inhibiting selection of one or more operative positions of a selector of an automatically operated gearbox, for example a parking position
A selector for an automatically operated gearbox is provided and includes: a casing; a control member mounted within the casing in an oscillating manner around a first axis of rotation, the control member being movable through a plurality of operative positions associated to respective operating conditions of the gearbox; a prevention device of the selection of an undesired operative position of the selector, wherein the prevention device includes a rocker mounted within the casing in a rotatable manner around a second axis of rotation; the rocker being operable in rotation around the second axis of rotation by an actuator member between a resting position and a working position in which it is configured to inhibit the selection of the undesired operative position. The prevention device is configured for enabling, in certain conditions, selection of the undesired operative position even when it is currently inhibited.
