A gearshift actuator configured to be driven by an eccentric electric motor has a rotating nut configured to be driven by the electric motor, an actuation member, and a converter adapted to convert a torque of the rotating nut into a translational force and to provide the translational force as an actuating force for a gear shift.

The invention relates to a switching module for coupling a drive module to an output module in an automatic transmission where the drive module and the output module are rotatably mounted around a common transmission axis. The switching module includes a switching unit rotatably mounted about the common transmission axis and couples with one of the modules in a movable and rotationally fixed manner. The switching unit includes an element for coupling the drive module and the output module in a force-fitting manner and a power transfer element for coupling the drive module and the output module in a form-fitting manner.

A shiftable shaft connector that has a sliding sleeve that can be displaced axially between an engaged position and a disengaged position, a shifting gear (6) with a shifting contour (11) that is connected in an axially fixed manner to the sliding sleeve and can rotate in relation thereto, at least one support element corresponding to the shifting contour (11), and an actuator for rotating the shifting gear (6), in which the shifting contour (11) has a release stop (14) assigned to the disengaged position, and an engagement selection stop (15) and an engagement stop (16) assigned to the engaged position, a method for shifting such a shaft connector, wherein the shifting gear (6) is rotated in a releasing direction in order to displace the sliding sleeve into the disengaged position, until the at least one support element reaches the release stop (14) of the shifting contour (11), and is rotated in an engagement direction in order to displace the sliding sleeve into the engaged position of the shifting gear (6), until the at least one support element reaches the engagement selection stop (15) of the shifting contour (11), and a vehicle transmission that has a drive shaft and an output shaft, wherein the vehicle transmission has a shaft connector of the type described above, that acts between the drive shaft and the output shaft.

A gear transmission device includes a frame, a sun gear, a driven gear, a planetary gear, a contact member, and a guide. The guide guides the contact member as described below. When the planetary gear is at a meshing position, a first tooth portion and a first contact portion of the contact member are away from the planetary gear. When the planetary gear is at a farthest position, the first contact portion is in contact with the planetary gear and the first tooth portion is away from the planetary gear. When the planetary gear is between the meshing position and the farthest position, the first tooth portion moves in mesh with the planetary gear in a direction opposite to a moving direction of the planetary gear around the sun gear, and the first contact portion is switched between a state in contact with the planetary gear and a state away from the planetary gear.

An actuator module for a driveline assembly includes, among other things, a cover housing and a fork driving unit supported by the cover housing. The fork driving unit includes a fork driver and a pusher assembly coupled to the fork driver by spaced apart pusher ends. The fork driving unit also includes a drive assembly carried by the pusher assembly to translate the fork driver relative to the cover housing. The fork driving unit further includes a spring that biases the pusher assembly and fork driver to a neutral position.

A snowmobile has a two-stroke engine having an electronic reverse function so that a crankshaft can be selectively rotated in forward and reverse rotation directions. A gearbox has a first shaft coupled to a countershaft, a second shaft extending parallel to the first shaft, first transmission gears mounted to the first shaft and second transmission gears mounted to the second shaft. The first transmission gears are in constant mesh with the second transmission gears to form high and low gear pairings. A shifter is operable for selectively operating the gearbox in one of a high gear, a low gear and a neutral gear. The engine is selectively operable in the forward and reverse rotation directions while the gearbox is operated in at least one of the high gear, the low gear and the neutral gear.

A gear-shifting device includes a first motor having a first stator. The first stator turns clockwise and counter-clockwise, creating a wobbling action. The device further includes a compound planetary transmission, made up of a transmission ring attached to a ring gear. The compound planetary transmission receives power from the first stator. A second motor having a second stator, turns clockwise and counter-clockwise. The device further includes a shift assembly, made up of a drum, a cap, and a pinion gear. The pinion gear receives power from the second stator. The drum locks with the pinion gear such that the drum rotates with the pinion gear. The transmission ring is attached to the drum, such that the transmission ring moves laterally as the drum rotates. The ring gear locks and unlocks with the cap as the drum rotates. The wobbling action enables the locking.
