A power transmission device includes a power transmission mechanism, an oil pump, a first electric wire, a controller and a control unit. The power transmission mechanism is arranged in a first chamber. The oil pump is arranged in a second chamber. The control unit is connected with the controller via the first electric wire. The first electric wire is provided inside the second chamber, and is arranged at a position that does not overlap with the oil pump when viewed along a first direction that is a direction facing from the oil pump to the controller.

A hydraulic assembly with a lubricant output, a control output and a pump which can supply a hydraulic fluid flow to the lubricant output and the control output. A switching valve with structurally predefined hysteresis is arranged between a pump output and the control output of the hydraulic assembly. Depending on the pressure in the branch between the pump output and the control output, the valve can be switched between an open position in which the control output is connected to the pump output, and a blocking position in which the control output is blocked off. The switching valve switches from the open position to the blocking position when the pressure provided by the pump exceeds an upper switching threshold, and returns from the blocking position to the open position when the pressure provided by the pump falls below a lower switching threshold. A clutch can be switched by means of such a hydraulic assembly, and a method for actuating the clutch.

In a hydraulic control device switchable between a first state in which a first oil is supplied from a first pump to a hydraulic operation part via a bypass valve and a second state in which the first oil supplied from the first pump is pressurized by using the second pump and the pressurized first oil is supplied, as a second oil, to the hydraulic operation part, control that adds a correction hydraulic pressure of a predetermined amount to the hydraulic pressure of the oil discharged from a valve for adjusting the pressure of the oil supplied to the hydraulic operation part is performed when the second state is switched to the first state due to a stop or a low rotation state of the second pump.

A hydraulic actuator can be provided for actuating a functional part by a movement of a force transmission element, with a working piston which can be acted upon by a hydraulic pressure of a pressure supply and is movable thereover between a first extreme position and a second extreme position in a piston/cylinder unit, wherein two chambers separated from one another by the working piston are present and a first chamber is formed as a first working chamber with a pressure inlet and a hydraulic pressure applied to the first pressure inlet urges the working piston in the direction of the first extreme position in order to enlarge the first working chamber. At least one retaining means is provided which is capable of automatically locking the working piston in one of the extreme positions when this extreme position is reached, even without any hydraulic pressure being applied.

Various implementations described herein are directed to an emergency lubrication system for a tiltrotor aircraft. The emergency lubrication system includes a pressurized material chamber, a lubrication chamber, a first valve between the pressurized material chamber and the lubrication chamber, a gearbox, and a second valve between the lubrication chamber and the gearbox. The first valve is configured to operate in a first mode when the emergency lubrication system is in a first configuration and a second mode when the emergency lubrication system is in a second configuration.

A transmission includes an oil sump and at least one oil bunker arranged separated from the oil sump within the transmission. The transmission includes a valve having a channel body, at least one sump port, at least one bunker port, and a mechanical actuating element. The channel body has at least one oil duct. The at least one oil duct connects the at least one bunker port to the at least one sump port. The mechanical actuating element is configured for temperature-dependently deforming to transfer the valve out of a closed position into at least one open position. The at least one oil bunker is connected to the oil sump via the valve when the valve is in the at least one open state. The at least one oil bunker is not connected to the oil sump via the valve when the valve is in the closed state.

The invention relates to a pressure oil filter system for a hydraulic transmission, in particular for a motor vehicle transmission, comprising at least one oil pump which can be actuated as required and which has a pressure side and a suction side, a pressure line to a consumer and at least a first oil filter which is arranged at the pressure side of the oil pump in the pressure line, wherein means for damping pressure surges during intermittent operation of the oil pump are provided in the pressure line upstream of the first oil filter in the flow direction of the oil.

A hydraulic circuit for a vehicle driving device includes an oil pump, a clutch oil passage, a cooling oil passage, a pressure regulating valve, and a shift valve. The cooling oil passage guides oil to a cooled portion of a vehicle. Supply of oil to the clutch oil passage and the cooling oil passage is switched by switching of the pressure regulating valve and the shift valve. The cooling oil passage includes: a shaft center cooling oil passage which supplies cooling oil to a shaft center of a rotation shaft of an electric motor mounted on the vehicle; and a cooling oil passage shift valve which switches presence/absence of supply of oil to the shaft center cooling oil passage.

A vehicle drive system includes a first prime mover, a transmission, a power take-off (PTO), a lubrication system for the transmission and the PTO, and a control system. The transmission is powered by the first prime mover. The transmission is configured to rotate a drive shaft of the vehicle. The PTO is connected to the transmission at a first interface. The PTO includes the first interface and a second interface. The control system is configured to control fluid flow through the lubrication system for at least one mode where the input section of the PTO is stationary and the output section rotates.
