A drum washing machine includes a tub; a drum rotatably arranged in the tub; an agitator rotatably arranged in the drum and having a water spray hole; a drive in transmission connection with the drum via a main shaft which transmits a torque of the driver to the drum; a planetary gear assembly in transmission connection with the main shaft and the agitator and transmitting a torque of the main shaft to the agitator; and a water supply device in communication with one of the tub and a water source as well as the agitator respectively, supplying water in the tub or the water source to the agitator, and spraying the water into the drum through the water spray hole.

An angle calculation unit acquires a motor rotation angle signal, output from a motor rotation angle sensor detecting a rotational position of a motor, and calculates a motor angle. A signal acquisition unit acquires an output shaft signal that is output from an output shaft sensor and has a value changing stepwise in accordance with a rotational position of an output shaft, the output shaft sensor detecting a rotational position of an output shaft to which the rotation of the motor 10 is transmitted. A drive control unit controls the drive of the motor such that the motor angle becomes a target motor angle value corresponding to a target shift range. A range determination unit determines an actual range based on the output shaft signal and the motor rotation angle signal.

Methods and systems are provided for an actuation system for a driveline shifting member in a transmission system of a vehicle. In one example, a system may include an actuator coupled to a lever arm via one or more parallel axis gears, and a shaft connecting the lever arm to a driveline shifting member, the lever arm driven via a rolling element housed within a slot in the lever arm aligned with a center of a parallel axis gear of the one or more parallel axis gears.
