DEVICE COMPRISING A TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY HAVING AN OVERRIDE CLUTCH WITH A FREEWHEELING MEMBER
A device includes a transmission assembly having a first override clutch. The first override clutch is used especially for transmitting a torque between a first coupling partner and a second coupling partner. The first override clutch engages and disengages in accordance with a change in the load flow between the coupling partners. A freewheeling member which is associated with the first override clutch neutralizes the engagement between the coupling partners. The neutralization is, in particular, temporary.

Charging mechanism for charging a stored-energy spring of a stored-energy spring mechanism
A charging mechanism for charging a stored-energy spring of a stored-energy spring mechanism includes a charging gear coupled to the stored-energy spring, an intermediate shaft coupled to the charging gear, an idler gear that can be driven by a charging motor, a freewheel coupled to the idler gear, and a dog clutch that couples the freewheel to the intermediate shaft in order to charge the stored-energy spring and uncouples same from the intermediate shaft in the charged state of the stored-energy spring. The dog clutch has a first clutch block coupled to the intermediate shaft for conjoint rotation, and a second clutch block connected to the freewheel. The first clutch block can be displaced along an axis of rotation of the intermediate shaft between two end positions and, in an intermediate position between the end positions can be freely rotated only in a direction of rotation with respect to the second clutch block.

Parallel hybrid power transmission mechanism
A parallel hybrid power transmission mechanism includes a crank shaft, a driven device to which a power of an engine and/or a motor generator is transmitted, an input shaft disposed on the driven device, a flywheel connected to the crank shaft, and a rotor disposed on the motor generator, including a first connecting portion connected to an outside of the flywheel. The rotor is configured to supply and receive a rotational power to and from the flywheel through the first connecting portion. The parallel hybrid power transmission mechanism further includes a coupling arranged independently from the rotor, including a second connecting portion connected to an inside of the flywheel, the coupling being configured to receive the rotational power of the flywheel through the second connecting portion, and an intermediate shaft connecting the coupling and the input shaft to each other, the intermediate shaft being configured to transmit the rotational power received by the coupling to the input shaft.

Apparatus utilizing planetary gearset coupled to a constant torsion spring
A gearbox includes a planetary gearset, an input shaft coupled to a sun gear of the planetary gearset, and an output shaft coupled to planet gears of the planetary gearset via a carrier. A constant torsion spring is coupled to a ring gear of the planetary gearset. The constant torsion spring is capable of preventing the ring gear from moving when a torque at the output shaft is below a threshold. The ring gear winds the constant torsion spring in response to the torque exceeding the threshold.
