A parking lock in a vehicle transmission includes a locking mechanism for locking and releasing a parking interlock gear (1) and an actuating unit. The actuating unit is coupled via a coupling mechanism to the locking mechanism in order to actuate the locking mechanism between an interlock position and a release position of the parking interlock gear (1). The parking lock is arranged on an intermediate plate (2) in a housing of the vehicle transmission.

A bicycle braking and parking device includes a casing, two brake pads, a locking pin, and an electromagnetic driver. The casing has an accommodation space and two pistons located at two opposite sides of the accommodation space. The accommodation space can accommodate part of a brake disk. The brake pads are located at the accommodation space and located between the pistons. The pistons can push the brake pads, and the brake pads can clamp the brake disk. The locking pin is movably disposed on the casing. The electromagnetic driver can force the locking pin to move between a released position and a locked position. when the locking pin is in the released position, the locking pin is separated from the brake disk. When the locking pin is in the locked position, the locking pin is inserted into the brake disk to limit a motion of the brake disk.

A transaxle includes a planetary gear reducer and a differential device. The planetary gear reducer includes a stepped pinion, a first needle bearing, a second needle bearing, and a carrier. The stepped pinion includes a pinion shaft with which a large diameter pinion and a small diameter pinion are integrated. The first needle bearing is fitted to a part of the pinion shaft outside the large diameter pinion. The second needle bearing is fitted to a part of the pinion shaft outside the small diameter pinion. The carrier is configured to support the stepped pinion via the first needle bearing and the second needle bearing such that the stepped pinion is rotatable with respect to the carrier, and to couple the stepped pinion and the differential device.

A vehicle parking lock mechanism includes a parking gear, a parking pawl, a lock member, and a support member. The parking pawl is meshed with the parking gear to hinder rotation of the parking gear. The lock member moves the parking pawl closer to the parking gear via a cam mechanism as the lock member is moved toward the locked position, to establish a parking locked state in which rotation of the parking gear is hindered by the parking pawl. The support member is provided with a guide portion guiding movement between a locked position and an unlocked position. The cam mechanism moves the parking pawl closer to the parking gear to be meshed therewith. A stopper is disposed on the lock member, to be engaged with the support member by taking a projecting posture in which the stopper projects toward the support member in the parking locked state.

A vehicle includes friction brakes, an electronic park brake system, and controllers. The controllers, responsive to the vehicle coming to a stop, and the vehicle being on plug, a driver door of the vehicle being open, or a driver seatbelt being unbuckled, issue a standstill friction brake request for the friction brakes and an electronic park brake request for the electronic park brake system. The controllers also, responsive to engagement of the electronic park brake system, discontinue the issue of the standstill friction brake request.

There is disclosed an aircraft engine assembly including an engine having an engine shaft; an output shaft; a clutch in driving engagement between the engine shaft and the output shaft. The clutch has a first component in driving engagement with the engine shaft and a second component. The clutch is operable between first and second configurations. In the first configuration, the first component is rotatable relative to the second component and the engine shaft is rotatable relative to the output shaft. In the second configuration, the first and second components are engaged with one another and the engine shaft rotates with the output shaft. A mechanical lock is operable between first and second positions. In the first position, the mechanical lock is disengaged from the first component. In the second position, the first and second components are secured for joint rotation one relative to the other.

A brake device including a first device having a shaft; a brake element having a first frictional brake surface and an engageable structure; a second device rotatable relative to the first device about a rotation axis, the second device including a second member having an opening, a second frictional brake surface, and a forcing member pre-tensioned to force the second frictional brake surface against the first frictional brake surface; and an actuator connected to the first device, the actuator including an engaging structure movable between a disengaged position, and an engaged position to brake relative rotation between the first device and the second device about the rotation axis; wherein the shaft is concentric with the rotation axis and passes through the opening.

The invention relates to a power-shift multi-speed transmission (10) provided in the power train of a vehicle, comprising at least one sun gear (14, 80), at least one stepped planetary gear (16, 22), at least one ring gear (34, 36), and an input shaft (12) and an output shaft (40). The power-shift multi-speed transmission (10) can be shifted into a shift mode of a first speed or into a shift mode of a second speed and vice versa by means of the at least one stepped planetary gear (16, 22). A first brake (30) is associated with a first ring gear (34) and a second brake (32) is associated with a second ring gear (36). Depending on the actuation of these brakes, in the shift modes there is at least one torque flow under acceleration, or at least one torque flow on overrun, through the power-shift multi-speed transmission (10).

A toothed holding brake for a vehicle door has a shaft, an armature plate, a magnet device and a detection device. The armature plate has a first and second main surfaces arranged opposite one another, wherein an armature-plate toothed rim having a plurality of armature teeth is arranged on the second main surface. The armature plate is arranged in a locking position such that the armature teeth mesh in the carry-along teeth to prevent rotation of the shaft in at least one direction, and is arranged in a release position such that the armature teeth are arranged at a distance from the carry-along teeth to enable rotation of the shaft in both directions. The magnet device has a magnet main surface arranged facing the armature plate, wherein the magnet device is designed to move the armature plate between the locking position and the release position.

A parking lock includes a locking pawl (2) and an interlocking element (7). The locking pawl (2) is pivotably mounted on a pawl pin (1) and engageable with a parking interlock gear (3). The interlocking element (7) is arranged on a connecting bar (4) to a selector disk (5), spring-loaded with a spring element (6), and clampable between the locking pawl (2) and a guiding plate (8). An end of the connecting bar (4) facing away from the interlocking element (7) is articulatedly connected to the selector disk (5). An engaging piece (16) of the selector disk (5) is operatively connected to a parking lock actuator (12). The connecting bar (4) is arranged below the locking pawl (2) such that a motion plane of the connecting bar (4) is parallel to a motion plane of the locking pawl (2) and perpendicular to the pawl pin (1).
