A power train for an electric vehicle may include a planetary gear set including three rotation elements having a first rotation element, a second rotation element and a third rotation element, wherein the first rotation element is connected to a first shaft, the second rotation element is connected to a second shaft, and the third rotation element is connected to a third shaft; a first motor mounted to selectively supply power to the first shaft in two or more gear ratios; and a second motor mounted to selectively supply power to the first shaft in two or more gear ratios. The third shaft is configured to be fixed to a transmission housing, and any two of the first shaft, the second shaft, and the third shaft are configured to be coupled to each other.

A transmission comprises a moving mechanism to generate axial force to move the one rotary member and releases the axial force according to generation of coasting torque, an urging mechanism to urge the one rotary member with force being poorer than the axial force being generated by the moving mechanism so that the meshing teeth mesh, the contact body of the urging mechanism arranged in a supporting hole formed on the torque transmission member in a radial direction, and an urging and converting part provided to receive the contact body being urged in the radial direction by the urging functional part and convert a direction of the urging to the axial direction to urge the axial movement of the one rotary member.

A hybrid vehicle includes: an engine including a crankshaft; an electric motor including a motor drive shaft; a power transmission shaft to which a total of drive power from the engine and drive power from the electric motor is transmitted; and a switching dog clutch located on a power transmission route from the crankshaft to the power transmission shaft, the switching dog clutch including a switching dog structure slidable to cut off the power transmission route.

An axle assembly that includes a sector cam. The sector cam may be rotatable about a sector cam axis and may be operatively connected to first and second shift collars. Rotation of the sector cam about the sector cam axis may control movement of the first and second shift collars.

A method of operating a shifting system for a vehicle transmission includes engaging a clutch to operatively couple one of first and second gear ratios to an input member, and moving a disconnect from a first disconnect position where a disconnectable component is disengaged from the disconnect, to a second disconnect position where the disconnectable component is engaged with the disconnect to operatively couple the other of the first and second gear ratios to the input member through a shifting assembly. Engaging the clutch and moving the disconnect are performed such that the clutch is operatively coupled to one of the first and second gear ratios at the same time that the shifting assembly is operatively coupled to the other one of the first and second gear ratios, thus preventing torque from being transmitted through either the first and second gear ratios of the vehicle transmission to park the vehicle.

A control device of a gear transmission-equipped vehicle includes a power controller that starts power reduction control when it is determined that a start condition is satisfied, the power reduction control being control of reducing power transmitted from a driving source to a gear transmission. The start condition includes: a condition that a detection value of a gear position sensor that detects a current gear position of the gear transmission falls within a transition region between engagement regions corresponding to respective gear positions; and a condition that a speed difference obtained by subtracting a rotational speed of an output shaft of the gear transmission from a rotational speed of an input shaft of the gear transmission is a threshold or more.

A drive train, including: a first electric motor; a second electric motor; and a transmission system including a first input shaft driveably connected to the first electric motor, a second input shaft driveably connected to the second electric motor, a first gear train including a first gear element rotatably mounted on the first input shaft and a second gear element rotatably mounted on the second input shaft, a second gear train including a third gear element rotatably mounted on the first input shaft and a fourth gear element rotatably mounted on the second input shaft, a gear selector assembly arranged to selectively lock either the first and third gear elements for rotation with the first input shaft or the second and fourth gear elements for rotation with the second input shaft.
