Vehicle
A vehicle includes an engine, a front frame, a rear frame, an intermediate frame, a front propeller shaft, a rear propeller shaft, and a wet oiling brake. A pair of right and left front lower arms are swingably mounted to the front frame. A pair of right and left rear lower arms are swingably mounted to the rear frame. The intermediate frame is located between the front frame and the rear frame. The front propeller shaft extends forward from the engine and the rear propeller shaft extends rearward from the engine. The wet oiling brake is located within a region defined by the intermediate frame in the front-rear direction and brakes a rotation of the front propeller shaft.
Transfer for four-wheel drive vehicle
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.
Clutch and vehicle motive power transmission structure
Provided is a clutch that is able to not only transmit torque smoothly even when an input shaft and an output shaft significantly differ in relative speed and phase, but also reduce an energy loss during torque transmission. The clutch (10) includes a dog clutch (40) for transmitting forward or reverse torque from the input shaft (11) to the output shaft (12), and a friction clutch (20) for transmitting torque from the input shaft (11) to the output shaft (12) and disposed in parallel with the dog clutch (40), and selectively transmits or interrupts torque between the input shaft (11) and the output shaft (12).
AGRICULTURAL MACHINE TRANSMISSION, IN PARTICULAR FOR A FARM TRACTOR
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.
Gear Assembly for Use in Electric Drive Transmissions
A gear assembly including: a drive gear adapted to be connected to an output shaft of an electric motor and being rotatable around a transmission axis; a planetary gear assembly including at least one sun gear, two or more planetary gear members rotatably supported on a carrier about respective planetary gear axes and meshing with the at least one sun gear and optionally a ring gear, an input stage connected to the drive gear, and an output stage adapted to be connected to a drive member for rotation of the drive member about the transmission axis; a clutch member adapted for slippingly connecting the ring gear with the carrier or with the drive member; and a brake member adapted for fixedly engaging a part of the planetary gear assembly with a locking part of the gear assembly.
Hybrid drive train
A hybrid drive train for a motor vehicle having an internal combustion engine, an electric machine, a first clutch, which is provided for coupling a crankshaft of the internal combustion engine to the rotor, and a second further clutch, which is designed as a wet clutch and which has a clutch cover. A screw connection is provided for non-rotatably connecting the rotor to the clutch cover, which screw connection includes a screw, which is substantially arranged in an axial direction and which at least partially penetrates a connecting piece non-rotatably fastened to the clutch cover.
VEHICLE FINAL DRIVE UNIT (FDU) WITH WET CLUTCH(ES)
A vehicle final drive unit (FDU) of a vehicle driveline. The vehicle FDU includes one or more wet clutches that provide disconnect capabilities in the vehicle FDU, and includes a final drive gearset. Different techniques are provided for discontinuing lubricant supply to the wet clutch(es) when the wet clutch(es) are disconnected in order to preclude unwanted rotations that can be the consequence of adhesion among clutch plates in the wet clutch(es). One technique actively brakes the final drive gearset in the vehicle FDU so that the final drive gearset no longer rotates and no longer throws lubricant to the wet clutch(es). Another technique involves closing an entrance that leads lubricant to the wet clutch(es).
TORQUE TRANSMISSION DEVICE, IN PARTICULAR FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE
The invention relates to a torque transmission device (1), having torque input means (2, 24) intended to be rotationally coupled to a crankshaft of an internal combustion engine (7), and torque output means (8) intended to be rotationally coupled to an input shaft (10) of a gearbox (36) and to a rotor (34) of an electric machine, the torque input means (2, 24) being capable of pivoting with respect to the torque output means (8) around an axis (X).
HYBRID DRIVE DEVICE
A hybrid drive device includes: a rotor; a transmission; and a case, in which a rotor support member that supports a rotor of the rotary electric machine includes an annular member that faces an end wall portion of the case, the end wall portion includes a first tubular portion that protrudes in an axial direction from an inner periphery toward the transmission, and a second tubular portion that protrudes in the axial direction toward the transmission so as to surround the first tubular portion, the annular member includes a tubular portion that protrudes in the axial direction from an inner periphery toward an engine, an inner side radial bearing is disposed between the first transmitting shaft and an inner peripheral surface of the first tubular portion of the end wall portion, a clearance is formed between an outer peripheral surface of the first tubular portion of the end wall portion and an inner peripheral surface of the tubular portion of the annular member, and an outer side radial bearing is disposed between an outer peripheral surface of the tubular portion of the annular member and an inner peripheral surface of the second tubular portion of the end wall portion. As a result, the durability of the bearing for supporting the rotor of the rotary electric machine in the radial direction can be further improved.
