A method is provided for configuring different numbers of gearshift variants in a stepped powershift transmission for an agricultural working machine. The method includes providing a transmission unit, a front-mounted range unit, a gear reduction unit, a rear-mounted range unit, a housing, a drive shaft, a lay shaft an output shaft, and a hydraulic control arrangement. The same transmission unit is used for all the numbers of gearshift variants while an identical spatial orientation of the shafts is maintained for all the numbers of gearshift variants. The method further includes adapting exclusively the gearshift variants by varying the front-mounted range unit or the rear-mounted range unit.

In a planetary gear device series composed of eight kinds of planetary gear devices with gear reduction ratios of 3 to 10, the planetary gear device of each gear reduction ratio uses an internal gear with 108 teeth or a slightly different number of teeth, and the module is common among the planetary gear devices of all gear reduction ratios. The combinations of the sun gear teeth number Za and the internal gear teeth number Zc in the planetary gear device of each reduction ratio are given in Table 1 of this application.

A manual transmission includes a housing having a longitudinal axis and an aperture, and a shift lever assembly comprising a shift lever having a pivot ball. At least three shift lever sockets are coaxially disposed along the longitudinal axis and within the aperture, with each of the at least three shift lever sockets being configured to receive the pivot ball therein when the shift lever is disposed at a corresponding, different discrete longitudinal position along an axis parallel to the longitudinal axis of the housing. A first shift lever assembly comprises a cover plate and a shift tower supporting the shift lever, wherein the shift tower is substantially centered within a periphery of the cover plate. A second shift lever assembly has a shift tower offset from a center of the periphery of the cover plate.

The present disclosure is directed to a gas turbine engine, wherein the gas turbine engine defines a longitudinal direction, a radial direction, and a circumferential direction, and an axial centerline extended along the longitudinal direction, and an upstream end and a downstream end along the longitudinal direction. The gas turbine engine includes an annular stationary turbine frame centered around the axial centerline; an engine shaft extended generally along the longitudinal direction; an input shaft extended generally along the longitudinal direction; and a gear assembly including a first gear coupled to the input shaft, a second gear coupled to the turbine frame, and an inner spool coupling the first gear and the second gear, in which the inner spool defines a gear axis extended therethrough. The inner spool, the first gear, and the second gear are together rotatable about the gear axis. The gear axis is rotatable about the axial centerline of the engine. The gas turbine engine further includes a housing coupled to the inner spool and the engine shaft.

A UTV portal axle system is disclosed, including a spindle with a housing for housing input and output drive gears coupled by one or more idler gears. The output drive gear is disposed lower than the input drive gear to provide additional ground clearance to the UTV. The king pin axis angle is substantially the same as that of a stock UTV, while maintaining a scrub radius of substantially one inch or less. This is accomplished by the lower control arm ball joint being located within a recess of the output drive gear. This allows the UTV to be properly controlled when driven at high speeds over rough or uneven terrain. The gears may be interchangeable to allow the gear ratio to be adjusted to be more suitable for use at various driving speeds. A method of changing the gear ratio is also disclosed.

The present invention relates to the field of linear actuators, and in particular, to a modular electric linear actuator facilitating assembly and disassembly. The modular electric linear actuator of the present invention mainly includes components such as a motor group, a screw group, an inner tube group, an outer tube group, and pins. The components are fixed through clamping or the pins, so that installation using screw bolts is avoided. By adopting the modular assembly manner, the disassembly is convenient, and the assembly is fast, so that less labor is required, and the production cost is reduced. Moreover, the pins are used for fixing in the end, so that the stability of the entire structure is ensured.

An inline gearbox for a land vehicle that includes an engine having a clutch housing for the transmission of rotational force from the engine to one or more wheels for propelling the land vehicle, wherein the inline gearbox includes a gearbox housing having a front end, a side and a rear end, with the front end adapted to be joined to the clutch housing. There is an input shaft contained at least in part within the gearbox housing proximate to the front end of the gearbox housing, and a primary gear train that includes (a) a lay shaft; (b) a drive shaft; and (c) a plurality of selectively engaged meshed gear pairs respectively mounted on the lay shaft and the drive shaft for transmitting rotational force from the lay shaft to the drive shaft. The inline gearbox also includes an output shaft contained at least in part within the gearbox housing proximate to the rear end of the gearbox housing, with the output shaft rotationally coupled to the drive shaft. The inline gearbox features a fast-change gear assembly contained within the gearbox housing, where the fast-change gear assembly is positioned proximate the front end of the gearbox housing and interposed between the input shaft and the lay shaft, with the fast-change gear assembly comprising a first fast-change gear and a second fast-change gear meshing with the first fast-change gear, and with the first fast-change gear and the second fast-change gear each having an axis generally parallel to the axis of the input shaft. The first fast-change gear is rotationally coupled to the input shaft so as to rotate with the rotation of the input shaft, and translationally uncoupled to the input shaft to permit removal of the first fast-change gear from the gearbox housing; and the second fast-change gear is rotationally coupled to the lay shaft so as to rotate the lay shaft upon rotation of the second fast-change gear, and translationally uncoupled to the lay shaft to permit removal of the second fast-change gear from the gearbox housing.

A gearbox for vehicles that includes a split gearbox, a main gearbox and a range gearbox, which is shiftable into a low range gear position and a high range gear position. The range gearbox includes a planetary gear with a ring gear wheel, a sun gear wheel and a planet carrier, on which at least one planet gear wheel is rotatably mounted. A gearbox housing surrounds the planetary gear. A first axially movable coupling sleeve engages the planet carrier with the gearbox housing.
