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.

This application provides a gear shifting mechanism, a gearbox, and a powertrain. The gear shifting mechanism includes a gear, a gear hub, a one-way clutch, and a sliding apparatus. The gear has a first convex wall and a second convex wall that are disposed around a shaft hole. A first toothed structure is disposed at an end of the first convex wall, and a diameter of the second convex wall is less than that of the first convex wall. The gear hub is sleeved on the second convex wall. The one-way clutch is disposed between the gear hub and the second convex wall. The sliding apparatus is sleeved on the gear hub, and the sliding apparatus is capable of sliding in a direction toward or away from the gear. The gear shifting mechanism can improve stability for transmitting a gear shifting power, thereby improving driving performance of an electric vehicle.

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 switching device for a drivetrain of a motor vehicleincludes a housing in which a first and a second driveshaft are rotatably mounted. The first and second driveshafts are arranged coaxially with one another so that they have a common rotation axis; The switching device further including switchable clutch device arranged between the first and the second driveshaft. The clutch device is transferrable into a disengaged open switched position, in which the first driveshaft is freely rotatable relative to the second driveshaft, and into an engaged switched position, in which the first driveshaft is connected to the second driveshaft via the clutch device for conjoint rotation. The control element is formed by a sliding sleeve, with an annular space being formed between each of the clutch elements, the corresponding drive shaft and the control element. The control element is arranged displaceably relative to the clutch element over a delimited axial path of movement, such that the volume of the annular space is variable.

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. The second ring includes a plurality of third teeth, complementary to the first teeth, a second spline for receiving a second shaft, and a plurality of second pockets. The plurality of rockers is disposed in a one of the plurality of first pockets or the plurality of second pockets for selectively engaging with the other one of the plurality of first pockets or the plurality of second pockets to prevent rotation of the first ring relative to the second ring in only one rotational direction.

Methods and systems for a vehicle transmission are provided herein. The vehicle transmission includes an input interface configured to mechanically couple to a motive power source. The vehicle transmission further includes a first disconnect device releasably mechanically coupling a first output to a first drive axle and a second disconnect device releasably mechanically coupling a second output to a second drive axle.

The present invention provides a disconnector apparatus including: a support ring provided in a differential casing and configured to support a pinion gear mounted therein; a clutch ring having one end penetrating the differential casing, provided in the differential casing, and configured to be coupled to or decoupled from the support ring; an actuator configured to press the other end of the clutch ring to couple the support ring and the clutch ring; and an elastic member coupled to an exposed portion of the clutch ring positioned outside the differential casing, the elastic member having one end in contact with the differential casing and the other end in contact with the actuator.

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.
