A continuously variable transmission (CVT) may include differential and range modules that include planetary gear arrangements, a plurality of selectively engageable clutch assemblies, and a drop box module with a final output member. First and second power source paths may provide power to a same end of the differential module. The clutch assemblies may be selectively engageable to provide variable rotational power from the differential module to the range module, and from the range module to the drop box module in a plurality of directional ranges. The drop box module may adapt the variable rotational power provided in the selected range for connection in a given application.

A system is disclosed. The system may include a first hydraulic variator including a first hydraulic pump and a first hydraulic motor. A first actuator may be linked to the first hydraulic pump. The first actuator may be associated with a feedback link configured to control pressure supplied to the first actuator, via a control valve, according to the displacement of the first hydraulic pump. The system may include a second hydraulic variator including a second hydraulic pump and a second hydraulic motor. A second actuator may be linked to the second hydraulic pump and configured to control a pressure within the second hydraulic variator to correspond to a pressure within the first hydraulic variator. The system may include a controller configured to provide a first signal to the first hydraulic variator relating to a speed and a second signal to the second hydraulic variator relating to a torque.

A transmission includes an input shaft and an output shaft, the input shaft selectively accepting a torque input from a prime mover, and the output shaft selectively providing torque output to a driveline. A controller determines a shaft displacement angle representing an angle value of rotational displacement difference between at least two shafts of the transmission, and performs a transmission operation responsive to the shaft displacement angle.

A transmission system for a feed mixer including a continuously variable transmission (CVT) is provided. The CVT includes a mechanical loop and a hydrostatic loop. The CVT is operated so that the mechanical portion of the CVT is prevented from overtaking the hydrostatic portion of the CVT at start up of the CVT.

A pump sleeve for an integrated drive generator has a pump sleeve body extending between a first end and a second end. The first end is at a location adjacent a radially enlarged end plate. The body extends to the second end with a generally cylindrical body portion having an inner bore diameter defining a first distance. The body extends between the first and second ends for a second distance. A ratio of the first distance to the second distance is between 0.15 and 0.30. An integrated drive generator and a method are also disclosed.

A hydraulic mechanical transmission includes a first hydraulic unit having a first shaft and a second hydraulic unit having a second shaft. The second hydraulic unit is connected in hydraulic fluid communication with the first hydraulic unit by high and low pressure lines. At least one of the first and second hydraulic units has variable displacement. A mechanical torque transfer arrangement transfers torque between the first shaft and the rotatable component of the second hydraulic unit. One of the first and second hydraulic units operates as a hydraulic pump and the other of the first and second hydraulic units operates as a hydraulic motor.

A transmission for a propulsion system. The propulsion system includes a power unit, a power transfer system, and a propulsion element. The transmission incorporates a summation, a propulsion output, and a power transfer transmission system, which receives power from the power unit and/or the power transfer system of the propulsion system. The power transfer transmission system includes a propulsion output transmission and a summation transmission, where the propulsion output transmission receives power from the summation transmission and directs the power to the propulsion element. The power transfer transmission system provides for transfer of power between the power transfer system and the summation transmission. The power transfer transmission system includes a power transfer shaft and a power transfer coupler and selectively connects the power transfer shaft to a propulsion outlet shaft, such that power is transferred directly from the power transfer system to the propulsion output transmission.

A work vehicle equipped with: a straight-traveling system transmission path including a first stepless transmission device, a turning system transmission path including a second stepless transmission device, left and right traveling units that receive a driving force from an engine and move the work vehicle in forward and in reverse, and a brake operation tool that actuates a brake mechanism. The output of the straight-traveling system transmission path and the output of the turning system transmission path are combined to drive the traveling units. When the operation amount to the brake operation tool exceeds a first predetermined amount, a control section blocks the driving force output from the first stepless transmission device, and at the same time, sets a swash plate of the second stepless transmission device in a neutral state.

A transmission includes an input shaft and an output shaft, the input shaft selectively accepting a torque input from a prime mover, and the output shaft selectively providing torque output to a driveline. A controller determines a shaft displacement angle representing an angle value of rotational displacement difference between at least two shafts of the transmission, and performs a transmission operation responsive to the shaft displacement angle.

A hydraulic mechanical transmission includes a first hydraulic unit having a first shaft and a second hydraulic unit having a second shaft. The second hydraulic unit is connected in hydraulic fluid communication with the first hydraulic unit by high and low pressure lines. At least one of the first and second hydraulic units has variable displacement. A mechanical torque transfer arrangement transfers torque between the first shaft and the rotatable component of the second hydraulic unit. One of the first and second hydraulic units operates as a hydraulic pump and the other of the first and second hydraulic units operates as a hydraulic motor.
