The present disclosure provides a cooling system including a decelerator and a cooling line provided in a gear housing to cool at least one of a gear and a lubricant. The cooling system is configured to control the temperature of the lubricant inside the decelerator by circulating a coolant through the cooling line. The decelerator includes a gear set including the gear and the lubricant for accommodating a backlash and a gear housing configured to surround the gear set for transmitting a torque output from an electric motor through the decelerator to a drive shaft and vehicle wheels.

A method for operating a motor vehicle that has an internal combustion engine and an automated manual transmission, connected between the engine and a drive output. The transmission includes a shifting element group with a plurality of shifting elements. The transmission further includes an oil pump and an electric machine, both of which are integrated in the transmission and coupled to an input shaft of the transmission. The oil pump delivers a flow of transmission oil for cooling the shifting element group and cooling the electric machine, and the shifting elements of the shifting element group are controlled and shifted by an actuator system that is independent of the oil pump. When the motor vehicle is at rest, the oil pump is driven by the electric machine in order to cool the electric machine while the motor vehicle is at rest.

Embodiments of a cold start lubricant distribution system include a lubricant distribution circuit, which fluidly interconnects first and second actively-lubricated work vehicle assemblies onboard a work vehicle. A flow divider section is included in the lubricant distribution circuit and through which lubricant flow is apportioned between the first and second actively-lubricated work vehicle assemblies. A lubricant supply pump is further located in the lubricant distribution circuit upstream of the flow divider section. The cold start lubricant distribution system further includes a lubricant flow modification assembly operably in a cold start mode. When operating in the cold start mode, the lubricant flow modification assembly reduces a volume of lubricant flow supplied to the first actively-lubricated work vehicle assembly through the flow divider section relative to a volume of lubricant flow supplied to the second actively-lubricated work vehicle assembly through the flow divider section.

A method for managing electrical Key Off Load (KOL) and other potentially damaging operational conditions in a vehicle while in a neutral mode setting, comprising: determining a vehicle drivetrain is in the neutral mode setting; determining an operational characteristic that changes with time while the vehicle is in the neutral mode setting; performing, via a vehicle control module and based on the neutral mode setting and the operational characteristic, vehicle actions comprising engaging an automated start powertrain activation while the vehicle is in the neutral mode setting.

A speed reducer according to the present invention includes: at least one gear member for changing a speed of rotations input from a rotary device and outputting the rotations; a case housing the gear member; and a heating unit provided on the case and configured to heat the case or an inside of the case.

The disclosed technology includes a water cooled planetary system comprising a planetary gearing system and a cooling assembly integrated into the planetary gearing system. The cooling assembly further comprises a stationary shaft, a main rotary union housed within the stationary shaft and a coolant tubing disposed on the main rotary union configured to deliver a coolant.

A vehicle drive system includes a first prime mover, a transmission, a power take-off (PTO), a lubrication system for the transmission and the PTO, and a control system. The transmission is powered by the first prime mover. The transmission is configured to rotate a drive shaft of the vehicle. The PTO is connected to the transmission at a first interface. The PTO includes the first interface and a second interface. The control system is configured to control fluid flow through the lubrication system for at least one mode where the input section of the PTO is stationary and the output section rotates.

A motor operating module includes a motor including a rotor and a stator, a gear unit provided on one side of the motor, and being configured to receive torque of the rotor and to transmit the torque to outside, and a housing configured to accommodate the motor and the gear unit in an inner space including a front space formed on a first side, a rear space formed on a second side opposite to the first side, and rear-facing connection flow paths extending from the front space toward the rear space to provide a path for a cooling fluid to flow, such that a motor may be cooled by using a churning effect of an oil caused by rotation of a gear without a separate operating device such as a pump.

A control device for an automatic transmission is provided, which includes a vehicle-propelling friction engagement element configured to be engaged when a vehicle starts traveling, an other friction engagement element, a vehicle-propelling friction engagement element temperature detector configured to detect a temperature of the vehicle-propelling friction engagement element, an other friction engagement element temperature detector configured to detect a temperature of the other friction engagement element, and a processor configured to execute lubricant supply control logic to control supply of lubricant to the vehicle-propelling friction engagement element and the other friction engagement element. The lubricant supply control logic switches the supply amount of lubricant to the vehicle-propelling friction engagement element according to the temperature of the vehicle-propelling friction engagement element, and switches the supply amount of lubricant to the other friction engagement element according to the temperature of the other friction engagement element.

A vehicle includes a motor, a gear mechanism connected downstream of the motor, a box that has a motor chamber that houses the motor, a gear chamber that houses the gear mechanism and lubricating oil, and an exhaust pipe. A first cooling box, in which cooling liquid that cools the motor is introduced, is configured on an outer circumference of the motor. A second cooling box, which is connected so that cooling liquid can circulate between the second cooling box and the first cooling box, is configured on an outer circumference of the box. The motor chamber is arranged at a position spaced further apart from the exhaust pipe than the gear chamber.
