A hydraulic type scissors gear removes factors that generate a backlash due to reduction of tension of existing springs by generating a relative motion between gears using oil pressure. The hydraulic type scissors gear includes: a first gear having an operation chamber and supplied with oil in the operation chamber; a second gear coaxially disposed on a side of the first gear to be rotate relative to the first gear; and a piston configured to rotate the second gear by applying force that pushes the second gear in a rotational direction opposite to a rotational direction of the first gear by being moved in the operation chamber by oil pressure supplied to the operation chamber.

A controller determines a compensation factor from an operating amount of an accelerator operating member and a hydraulic pressure of at least one of a first circuit and a second circuit. The controller determines a target vehicle speed from the operating amount of the accelerator operating member. The controller determines at least one of a target displacement of a travel pump and a target displacement of a travel motor from the target vehicle speed and the compensation factor.

An arrangement including a bushing having a bushing hub, a bushing flange, a housing containing a uni-directional bearing, an axle extending outward from the uni-directional bearing, and a stationary torque arm attached to the axle of the bushing. The bushing hub is inserted into a recessed hub section of a sprocket, and securely connected to the sprocket. The arrangement may also include a driven device attached to the bushing hub, and an endless drive belt and motor.

As viewed from a side, an output shaft is disposed rearward of a crankshaft, and an odd-numbered stage shaft and an even-numbered stage shaft are disposed rearward of the crankshaft. Moreover, the odd-numbered stage shaft is provided on a side opposite to the even-numbered stage shaft relative to a line connecting the crankshaft and the output shaft, and a shift drum is disposed on a side opposite to the output shaft relative to a line connecting the odd-numbered stage shaft and the even-numbered stage shaft. This structure reduces dimensions of the power unit for the saddled vehicle.

An electric machine and method for operating an electric machine are provided. The electric machine includes a first rotational component and a second rotational component rotationally engaging the first rotational component via a splined interface. The electric machine further includes a first lash reducing spring radially positioned between a first set two adjacent splines in the splined interface.

An anti-backlash structure for a scissors gear is provided including a scissors gear and a cam gear which are coaxially connected to rotate relative to each other, an end piece which has one side which is press-fitted into a cam shaft so that the end piece rotates together with the cam shaft, the other side which is in surface-to-surface contact with the scissors gear, and a circumferential surface with which the cam gear is press-fitted; a bolt which is coupled to an inner diameter portion of the scissors gear, penetrates the end piece, and is inserted into the cam shaft; and a scissors spring which has one side coupled to the end piece, and the other side coupled to the bolt. When the end piece rotates, the scissors spring rotates the scissors gear relative to the cam gear through the bolt and allows the scissors gear to come into close contact with the cam gear.

A variation reduction mechanism of a stop position of a pointer includes a return gear that is driven in conjunction with a time display mechanism, a slip torque spring (friction member) that contacts the return gear to apply a friction force to the return gear to be driven, and a return spring (return spring member) that applies, to the slip torque spring, a torque of the return gear in a direction (dashed line arrowR direction) opposite to a normal hand movement direction (arrow R direction).
