A Feed Mixer Drivetrain provided with a transmission and control method therefor, wherein a controller is so configured as control a sequence of operation phases of the feed mixer; each operation phase defining a predetermined speed of the input shaft of the feed mixer via the transmission and a predetermined duration.

A work management system includes a generator attached to a structure body that is provided to a transmission case of a working machine, configured to be driven by power transmitted from a PTO shaft, and configured to transmit power to a working device provided in the working machine, an information obtaining portion configured to obtain operation information representing operation of the working device that is activated by the power from the generator, a work management portion configured to manage working of the working device based on the operation information obtained by the information obtaining portion, and a controller portion configured to control the working device based on the operation information obtained by the information obtaining portion.

A drive device for a PTO shaft includes a parking switch to detect a parking state of a vehicle body, a permission switch constituted of a self-returning switch and connected to the parking switch, the permission switch being configured to be switched to permit driving a PTO shaft, the PTO shaft being configured to be driven by a power of a prime mover disposed on the vehicle body, and a first switch device to be switched to enable the PTO shaft to be driven when the permission switch is switched to permit driving the PTO shaft under a state where the parking switch detects the parking state of the vehicle body.

A system is described, as well as methods of using the system. The method includes: determining an error within the vehicle driveline system; following the error, determining that a state of a power take-off unit (PTU) within the system is determinable; and then transferring a normal torque from the PTU to a secondary drive unit (SDU) during the error.

A method for operating a working vehicle-working device combination having a part system for adjusting the working vehicle-working device combination includes determining a motor torque of a motor of the working vehicle-working device combination based on a motor parameter, determining a first loss torque based on at least one motor loss parameter of the motor, determining a second loss torque based on at least one load parameter of a load system of the working vehicle-working device combination, determining an output torque of the working vehicle-working device combination based on the motor torque and the first and second loss torques, and performing a control operation on the working vehicle-working device combination or on the part system based on the output torque.

A plug-in hybrid electric vehicle system employs an improved integrated propulsion device, a drive system and battery management system that is operable to be used in the commercial vehicle business. The vehicle system is operable to provide optimal performance for particular fleet applications by taking into consideration driving patterns and load demands. The vehicle system also provides a drive for auxiliary equipment for work vehicles and driver selectable driving modes for when a vehicle encounters different driving demands.

A haptic feedback system for a work vehicle includes at least one controller that may control haptic feedback through a steering controller, determine a status change associated with the work vehicle, and output a command indicative of instructions to a haptic feedback actuator configured to provide haptic feedback to the steering controller to indicate the status change.

A tractor includes an engine, a transmission coupled to the engine, a hydraulic pump driven by the engine, at least one of a tractor implement, attachment, or control moved by the hydraulic pump, a sensor, and a controller coupled to the transmission. The controller is configured to downshift the transmission based on a signal from the sensor.

A transmission includes input and output shafts, a hybrid module coupled to the input shaft and a gearbox coupled to the module and output shaft. The hybrid module includes a first electric motor under driven by a gearset; a second electric motor coupled to a module output, a disconnect clutch coupled to the gearset and selectively to the input shaft; and a launch clutch coupled to the disconnect clutch and selectively to the module output. The gearbox includes three gearsets and five torque transmitting devices operable to generate six forward speeds. One torque transmitting device is a clutch brake applied with a piston that reaches over a park gear, and one is a selectable one way clutch. Two of the torque transmitting devices are radially stacked rotating clutches. The transmission includes and/or facilitates an engine only mode, an electric only mode, a hybrid mode and a battery charging mode.

A method for starting a combustion engine fitted to a hybrid or dual-mode motor vehicle includes starting an additional motor upon a setpoint torque demanded by a driver of the vehicle, with a view to accelerating the vehicle beyond a threshold speed at which the combustion engine is driven beyond a stalling speed threshold when the combustion engine is mechanically coupled to wheels of the vehicle.
