A roller cage assembly for an overrunning clutch is provided. The roller cage assembly includes a roller cage, a plurality of rollers and a plurality of roller spring assemblies. The roller cage includes a plurality of spaced support members axially extending between disk shaped first and second end portions. The plurality of rollers are positioned within the roller cage. The plurality of roller spring assemblies engage the roller cage. The plurality of spring roller assemblies are configured to provide a bias force on each roller away from the roller cage. Each roller cage assembly extends between the first and second end portions of the roller cage. Each roller spring assembly further includes at least one pair of attachment members configured to engage a support member of the roller cage.

A two-tracked vehicle is powered by an electric machine which operates as a motor to rotate output shafts via an axle differential with each of the output shafts coupled to a vehicle wheel. One of the output shafts is subdivided into a wheel-side shaft portion and an electric-machine-side shaft portion which can be drivingly coupled to each other by a form-fit coupling to bring the electric machine into driving connection with the vehicle wheels during driving operation. The wheel-side shaft portion and electric-machine-side shaft portion can be decoupled from each other to prevent drag losses during driving operation when the electric machine is deactivated.

A wheel end disconnect assembly includes a housing, a shift ring, a shift fork and an actuator. The shift ring is supported for axial translation relative to the housing between a connected position in which the shift ring couples an input member to a wheel hub for rotation therewith and a disconnected position in which the input member and the wheel hub are rotatable relative to each other. The shift fork includes a first arm portion, a second arm portion, and an input portion extending from a junction of the first and second arm portions. The shift fork is pivotably coupled to the housing at the junction of the first and second arm portions. The actuator is configured to move the input portion to pivot the first and second arm portions such that the first and second arm portions translate the shift ring between the connected and disconnected positions.

Methods and systems are provided for controlling a multi-axle assembly in a vehicle. The multi-axle assembly may be operated according to a requested mode, where the mode includes providing torque at one, two, or no axles of the multi-axle assembly, and the requested mode may be selected based on vehicle speed. In this way, operation of the multi-axle assembly may be adjusted according to a fuel efficiency of the vehicle while the vehicle is in motion.

A transfer for a four-wheel drive vehicle, the four-wheel drive vehicle configured to disconnect a propeller shaft from a power transmission path between an auxiliary drive wheels and a driving power source when the four-wheel drive vehicle travels by two-wheel drive, includes a second output rotating member and an oil pump. The second output rotating member is configured to output a driving power to the propeller shaft. The oil pump is configured to rotationally drive in conjunction with rotation of the second output rotating member via a first one-way clutch. The first one-way clutch is configured such that the oil pump supplies a lubrication oil to a wet clutch when the four-wheel drive vehicle travels forward by the four-wheel drive. The oil pump is configured to stop supplying the lubrication oil to the wet clutch when the four-wheel drive vehicle travels forward by the two-wheel drive.

Methods and systems are provided for an electromagnetic pulse disconnect assembly. In one example, an electromagnetic disconnect assembly includes an electromagnetic coil assembly including an electromagnetic coil, an armature cam including an annular ring and a plurality of bidirectional cam ramps extending in an axial direction from the annular ring, where the annular ring is adapted to have face-sharing contact with the electromagnetic coil assembly when the electromagnetic coil is energized and be spaced apart from the electromagnetic coil assembly when the electromagnetic coil is de-energized, and a cam follower a plurality of radially extending guides arranged around a circumference of the cam follower and spaced apart from one another via a plurality of elongate apertures, each of the plurality of elongate apertures adapted to receive one of the plurality of bidirectional ramps of the armature cam. The assembly may further include a latching system.

A wheel end disconnect assembly includes a housing, a shift ring, a shift fork and an actuator. The shift ring is supported for axial translation relative to the housing between a connected position in which the shift ring couples an input member to a wheel hub for rotation therewith and a disconnected position in which the input member and the wheel hub are rotatable relative to each other. The shift fork includes a first arm portion, a second arm portion, and an input portion extending from a junction of the first and second arm portions. The shift fork is pivotably coupled to the housing at the junction of the first and second arm portions. The actuator is configured to move the input portion to pivot the first and second arm portions such that the first and second arm portions translate the shift ring between the connected and disconnected positions.

A sensorless clutch state feedback method is provided including a driveline disconnect. To engage the sensorless disconnect, respective speeds of a motor assembly and the sensorless disconnect are synchronized to within a speed delta threshold of each other, a control system facilitates the engagement of the motor assembly and the sensorless disconnect, and the control system determines the success of the engagement by the motor speed response of the motor assembly (e.g., whether the presence of a load is detected).

An agricultural machine transmission has a powershiftable main group arranged upstream or downstream of a powershiftable split group in the direction of force transfer. The split group has an input shaft, an output shaft, and powershift elements, which when selectively actuated permit configurations of at least six different forward gears and at least three different reverse gears between the input shaft and the output shaft of the split group. A driveshaft of the main group is connectable by a first powershift clutch to a first input shaft and is connectable by a second powershift clutch to a second input shaft of the main group. Spur gear stages of the main group can be integrated into the force transfer path by actuating an associated shift element, coupling an associated input shaft to the drive shaft of the main group by configuring a respective gear of the main group.

A wheel unit for an electric vehicle with a disengageable drive includes a wheel support, a wheel hub rotatably supported by the wheel support, and a wheel pin carried by a member driven by the electric motor and rotatably mounted within the wheel hub, by means of two rolling bearings. A coupling device connects in a releasable way the driven member to the wheel hub. The two rolling bearings that support in rotation the wheel pin have respective outer rings mounted by interference fit within a cylindrical wall of a central opening of the wheel hub, and respective inner rings rigidly connected together by means of a spacer sleeve having a predetermined length. The wheel-hub unit with the two rolling bearings and the spacer sleeve can be assembled before being mounted on the wheel pin.
