Provided is a drive transmission switching mechanism that can switch and drive two circulation units by one motor in response to a switching operation of a paper sheet transport direction. A paper sheet storage unit includes a first circulation unit 100 and a second circulation unit 200 that respectively receive transported paper sheets upon reception of a drive force from a single motor 302 and feed paper sheets stored therein, a sorter 310 that sorts paper sheets to either one of the circulation units, and a drive transmission switching mechanism 400 that transmits a drive force from the motor to either one of the circulation units. The drive transmission switching mechanism is activated in conjunction with an operation to change the posture of the sorter, thereby switching and transmitting the drive force to either one of the circulation units.

A reduction clutch for positioning an inner tub has an input shaft connected to an output shaft. An input shaft sleeve is connected to an output shaft sleeve. A clutch shaft sleeve slides axially downward to connect to a driving device and slides upward to connect to a fixed disk at one position in the circumferential direction. The positioning of the input shaft sleeve, the output shaft sleeve and an inner tub in the circumferential direction is achieved by the connecting position. A first water drainage hole is arranged at the bottom of the inner tub. An included angle between a protrusion on the upper portion of the clutch shaft sleeve and the first water drainage hole of the inner tub is equal to an included angle between a recess on the fixed disk fitting with the protrusion and the water drainage control mechanism on the outer tub.

A clutch arrangement for between an engine and a propeller of a drivetrain of a roadable aircraft. The arrangement includes an engine shaft, a propeller shaft, a stationary clutch arrangement housing, and an engagement member which is rotationally locked to and axially slidable relative to propeller shaft. The engagement member includes a first engagement structure for engaging a corresponding engagement structure associated with the engine shaft for setting the clutch arrangement in a propeller propulsion mode, in which rotational propulsion torque is transmitted from the engine shaft to the propeller shaft via the engagement member. The engagement member further includes a second engagement structure for engaging a corresponding engagement structure associated with the clutch arrangement housing for setting the clutch arrangement in a propeller locked mode, in which the propeller shaft is rotationally locked to the clutch arrangement housing by means of the engagement member.

A drive device includes: an actuator rotating, around a rotation axis, a shift drum having a lead groove formed on an outer peripheral surface; and an angle correction unit correcting a detection value of a rotation angle sensor that detects a rotation angle of the shift drum. The angle correction unit calculates the rotation angle of the shift drum at a reference position as a learning angle based on a correspondence between a displacement amount of a first engaging portion and a change amount of the rotation angle of the shift drum per a predetermined time of rotation of the shift drum at a predetermined speed. Then, the angle correction unit corrects the detection value of the rotation angle sensor based on an amount of deviation between the learning angle and a design angle.

In some implementations, the device may include a first member having a locking structure and a second member having a receiving area. The device may include a locking element supported in the receiving area of the second member, the locking element moving between an engaged position where the locking element holds or transfers torque between the first and second members and a disengaged position where the locking element holds or transfers no torque between the first and second members. The locking element includes a socket. Moreover, the device may include a reciprocating member in the socket when the locking element is in the disengaged position.

A dog clutch with ratcheting one-way clutch includes an axis, a dog clutch ring, a first ring, a second ring, and a plurality of rockers. The dog clutch ring has a plurality of first teeth. The first ring includes a plurality of second teeth, complementary to the first teeth, a first spline for receiving a first shaft, and a plurality of first pockets.
