An actuator system for moving a plurality of pulley segments of a segmented pulley between an engaged region and a disengaged region is provided. The actuator system comprises: a deflector configured to rotate at least between a first position and a second position; and a plurality of followers, each of the followers comprising a protrusion configured to engage the deflector to move the respective one of the pulley segments between the engaged region and the disengaged region, wherein the deflector is configured to move between the first position and the second position to selectively engage the plurality of followers and direct each of the followers between an engaged position and a disengaged position, to move the plurality of pulley segments between the engaged region and the disengaged region. A segmented pulley transmission comprising the actuator system is further provided.

A parking lock for a transmission of a motor vehicle may include a park gear rotatable about an axis of rotation, and an actuation device adjustable into a locking position and an unlocking position radially relative to the axis of rotation. In the unlocking position, rotating of the park gear may be possible, and in the locking position, rotating of the park gear may be prevented by way of positive locking. The actuation device may include a shifting drum and a locking lever, wherein the shifting drum may be rotatable about a guiding axis that is radial relative to the axis of rotation. The locking lever, by way of a guide track formed in the shifting drum, may interact with the guide track so that when the shifting drum is rotated, the locking lever may be guidable by the guide track radially relative to the axis of rotation and parallel to the guiding axis, and thereby the actuation device may be adjustable into the locking position and into the unlocking position.

A driveline component includes a first plate and a second plate. A motor is engaged with the first plate. The first plate and the second plate include ramped grooves that ramp toward the other of the first plate and the second plate. Balls are disposed between the first plate and the second plate and are engaged with the ramped grooves. A shifter is engaged with the second plate. Relative rotation of the first plate and the second plate causes the balls in the ramped grooves to move the first plate and the second plate axially relative to each other. This relative rotation may be used to make one type of mode selection, and operation of the shifter by the second plate may be used to make another type of mode selection. This allows the single motor to make both selections.

Parking lock (1, 19, 24) for a motor vehicle, having a movable locking means for impinging a parking lock wheel (14), disposed in the interior of a transmission housing (2), with a holding force, wherein the movable locking means, by means of a shifting shaft (3) that is rotatable by a drive motor (4) and a cam (7) that is coupled to the shifting shaft (3) is pivotable between a releasing state, in which the parking lock wheel (14) is rotatable, and a blocked state, in which a rotation of the parking lock wheel (14) is blocked, wherein the drive motor (4) is disposed outside the transmission housing (2), the shifting shaft (3) penetrates the transmission housing (2), and the cam (7) is disposed within the transmission housing (2). The invention moreover relates to a transmission having a parking lock (1, 19, 24) of this type, and to a drive installation for electrically drivable motor vehicle.

A compliant shifting mechanism for a power tool includes a selector, a first shift plate rotatable in response to rotation of the selector, a second shift plate rotatable in response to rotation of the first shift plate, a shift member moveable in response to rotation of the second shift plate to shift between a first mode of operation and a second mode of operation, a first torsion spring coupled to the first shift plate, and a second torsion spring coupled to the second shift plate. In response to rotation of the selector in a first direction, the first torsion spring may bias the first shift plate in the first direction for shifting compliance in the first direction. In response to rotation of the selector in an opposite second direction, the second torsion spring may bias the second shift plate in the second direction for shifting compliance in the second direction.

A first slider and a fifth-speed driving gear are arranged along an axial direction on a driving shaft. A shift fork has an end located in a guide groove of a shift drum, and another end connected to the first slider. In gear-shifting to a fifth speed, the first slider moves on the driving shaft so that a plurality of fifth-speed dog projections and a plurality of fifth-speed dog recesses mesh with each other. At least four of the plurality of fifth-speed dog projections and at least four of the plurality of fifth-speed dog recesses mesh within a range of 90 degrees at one side in the circumferential direction of the fifth-speed driving gear and a range of 90 degrees at another side in the circumferential direction of the fifth-speed driving gear with respect to a reference line.

A control system for a power transmission unit configured to shift an operating mode smoothly by manipulating engagement devices, and to simplify a structure of the power transmission unit. The control system is configured to reduce a speed difference between an axially stationary engagement element and a reciprocatable engagement element of a second engagement device when shifting from a first continuously variable mode to a second continuously variable mode by engaging the second engagement device. After the second engagement device has been engaged completely, a first engagement device is disengaged.

A compact and fast-shifting two-speed transmission for an electric drive system, such as an electric vehicle, has two synchronized dog clutches. A sliding sleeve for engaging a first and second gear is actuatable using a single actuator. A substantially load-interruption-free shifting is realized via a friction engagement in the synchronization. A drive system having such a two-speed transmission is capable of achieving at least substantially load-interruption-free shifting.

An actuator arrangement for operating a clutch and a parking lock in a driveline of a motor vehicle comprises: a clutch having a clutch actuating member configured to drivingly connect or disconnect a clutch input part and a clutch output part; a parking lock having a locking element movable to a locking position to lock a ratchet wheel, and to a release position to release the ratchet wheel; and a parking lock actuating member for actuating the locking element; a controllable actuator with a movable actuator setting member which is movable into at least three setting positions and is operatively connected to the clutch actuating member and to the parking lock actuating member such that in a first setting position the parking lock is closed, in a second setting position the clutch is closed, and in a third setting position the clutch and the parking lock are opened.

A transmission including a one-axis shift mechanism is provided. The transmission including a one-axis shift mechanism includes a transmission including a shift mechanism in which a shift fork is slidably coupled to a shift rail, and the shift fork includes a sleeve that allows the shift fork to be meshed with a gear portion coupled to an input shaft, the transmission including a motor, a first shift gear which is connected to the motor and moves according to rotation of the motor, a second shift gear arranged at one end of the shift rail and secured to the first shift gear, and a sliding pin arranged at the other end of the shift rail and configured to slide the shift fork by contacting a sliding protrusion arranged around an insertion hole of the shift fork, into which the shift rail is inserted.
