One embodiment relates to a hybrid vehicle drive system for a vehicle including a first prime mover, a first prime mover driven transmission, a rechargeable power source, and a PTO. The hybrid vehicle drive system can include a control system for reducing or eliminating regenerative braking during a traction control or anti-lock braking event.

Generator unit and working machine

A generator unit to be attached to a traveling vehicle that has a prime mover and a PTO shaft to transmit power from the prime mover, includes: a generator; an input shaft having: a first connector portion configured to be connected to the PTO shaft; and a second connector portion configured to be connected to a working device to be connected to the traveling vehicle; a transmitter mechanism to transmit, to the generator, power supplied from the PTO shaft, the power being inputted from the first connector portion to the input shaft; and an attachment frame having: an attachment portion to which the generator, the input shaft, and the transmitter mechanism are attached; and a mounting portion configured to be mounted to the traveling vehicle.

Power take-off shaft system and agricultural vehicle

A power take-off shaft system includes an output shaft with a socket for a power take-off shaft stub located at one end of the output shaft. A control valve is arranged in the output shaft and includes a valve bore extending axially from the socket into the output shaft. A first piston is adjustably arranged inside the valve bore in the output shaft, and a shifting element is adjustably controlled by the first piston. A first gearwheel and a second gearwheel are disposed in engagement with the output shaft via the shifting element such that the first piston moves between a first position and a second position. The control valve includes a second piston arranged on the first piston, and the second piston is adjustable such that movement of the first piston into the second position is blocked by the second piston.
