A modular gearbox assembly for a wind turbine having improved up-tower serviceability includes a low-speed gear stage module, a separate, intermediate-speed gear stage module adjacent to the low-speed gear stage module, and a separate high-speed gear stage module adjacent to the intermediate-speed gear stage module. The gearbox assembly also includes a first flange removably connecting the intermediate and high-speed gear stage modules and a second flange removably connecting the intermediate and low-speed gear stage modules. Thus, the low-speed gear stage module converts a low-speed, high torque input from a rotor shaft of the wind turbine to a high-speed, low torque output for a generator of the wind turbine via the intermediate and high-speed gear stage modules. In addition, the first and second flanges allow for easy disassembly of the gear stage modules such that the various stages can be easily repaired, replaced, and/or inspected.

A hybrid transmission device, comprising an electric machine, wherein the electric machine has an externally situated stator and an internally situated rotor shaft, wherein the hybrid transmission device furthermore comprises a transmission in a transmission housing and a clutch in a clutch housing, wherein the stator is fastened in the transmission housing, wherein the rotor shaft has, at a first end, a pinion that meshes with an intermediate gear of the transmission, wherein the rotor shaft is mounted in the region of the first end and in the region of the oppositely situated second end of the rotor shaft by means of a first and a second bearing, wherein an intermediate plate fastened to the stator is arranged axially in the region of the first end of the rotor shaft, wherein the second bearing for the mounting of the second end of the rotor shaft is fixed directly in the clutch housing, and the first bearing for the mounting of the first end of the rotor shaft is fixed to the transmission housing or is fixed to the intermediate plate, and a method for assembling a hybrid transmission device of said type.

A line of vehicle transmissions is provided. The vehicle line includes a first multi-stage gear train assembly with at least two stages, a second multi-stage gear train assembly with at least three stages, and a housing including a first section removably attached to a second section. The second housing section is configured to receive the first and second multi-stage gear train assemblies in different product arrangements.

A transmission includes a fork mechanism in which a plurality of fork rods to which a plurality of shift forks are connected are each attached to a pedestal so as to be moveable in an axial direction. An assembly guide portion is disposed on the pedestal and a guide pin is erected on a clutch housing. As a result, even in cases where an input shaft and a main shaft, on which driving and driven gears and synchro devices are assembled, are assembled on the clutch housing in a state that the driving and driven gears are engaged and, thereafter the fork mechanism is assembled on this clutch housing, the assembly of the fork mechanism on the clutch housing can be easily performed.

An operation device includes a main body, a lifting and lowering mechanism unit movably supported with respect to the main body and including a driven portion configured to receive driving force for movement of the lifting and lowering mechanism unit, a driving unit attached to the main body and configured to drive the lifting and lowering mechanism unit by a driving pin provided on a rotation gear. The lifting and lowering mechanism unit includes a groove portion into which the driving pin is accommodated by rotation of the rotation gear when the driving unit is mounted on the main body.

A method for producing a bearing assembly for mounting a control shaft, for example a camshaft, may include: providing a bearing; arranging at least two rings on respective axial front sides of the bearing; pushing the bearing together with the at least two rings onto an assembly mandrel; pre-tensioning the at least two rings against the respective axial front sides of the bearing; at least one of (i) pushing a shrink hose over the bearing and the at least two rings and heating the shrink hose, and (ii) winding a film strip over the bearing and the at least two rings; and withdrawing the assembly mandrel.

A motor reducer of the at least an embodiment of the present invention includes a reduction gear train that decelerates rotation input from a motor, and a reducer casing that accommodates the reduction gear train. An input cover that seals a motor-side end face of the reducer casing is provided, and the input cover is provided separately from the motor casing.

A line of vehicle transmissions is provided. The vehicle line includes a first multi-stage gear train assembly with at least two stages, a second multi-stage gear train assembly with at least three stages, and a housing including a first section removably attached to a second section. The second housing section is configured to receive the first and second multi-stage gear train assemblies in different product arrangements.

A method of assembling a vehicle driveline component that includes: positioning a rotary component and first race member on a fixture such that the first race member is concentric with a first race of the component; offsetting the first race member along the rotational axis relative to the first race; providing an annular bearing arrangement having balls and spacers; positioning the arrangement such that the centers of the balls are along a loading cylinder disposed concentrically about the rotational axis; moving the arrangement so the balls seat in the first race and the centers are distributed along an installation circle that is: a) larger in diameter than the loading cylinder if the first race is an outer race of a bearing assembly; or b) smaller in diameter than the loading cylinder if the first race is an inner race of a bearing assembly. A related tooling system is also provided.

An actuator unit for a shiftable transmission, in particular a transmission of an electrically driven utility vehicle, has an actuating element which is designed to adjust at least two shift positions in the transmission. The actuator unit is designed to be provided as a separate unit at least partially within the transmission. A transmission having such an actuator unit is disclosed.
