The coolant line system (8) fluidically connects at least the second coolant pump (5.2) to the heat exchanger (7) and, at least indirectly, fluidically connects the heat exchanger (7) to multiple coolant outlets (11.1, 11.2, 11.3, 11.4, 11.5) for spraying coolant (6) onto components in the housing (3) that require cooling and lubrication.

A transmission includes an input shaft coupled to a prime mover, a countershaft, main shaft, and an output shaft, with gears between the countershaft and the main shaft. A shift actuator selectively couples the input shaft to the main shaft by rotatably coupling gears between the countershaft and the main shaft. The shift actuator is mounted on an exterior wall of a housing including the countershaft and the main shaft. An integrated actuator housing includes a single external power access for the shift actuator. A controller interprets a shaft displacement angle, determines if the transmission is in an imminent zero or zero torque region, and performs a transmission operation in response to the transmission in the imminent zero or zero torque region.

A transmission mechanism device of an aspect of the present invention includes a motor, a transmission mechanism including a plurality of gears, a first shaft and a bearing supporting the first shaft and transmitting power of the motor, a housing that accommodates the transmission mechanism and holds the bearing on an inner face, oil that collects in a lower region inside the housing, a catch tank that is disposed inside the housing and opens upward, an oil passage through which the oil passes, and an oil pump provided in the oil passage. The oil passage has a first path connecting the oil pump and the catch tank and a scooping path for scooping the oil by rotation of the gear to guide the scooped oil to the catch tank. The catch tank includes a feed portion for supplying the oil to the gear or the bearing.

A power transmission device includes a bearing, a differential mechanism, a case that houses the differential mechanism, a pinion gear supported by the case, a wall part that overlaps the case in an axial direction, a plate that is provided between the wall part and the case in the axial direction, and that supports the case with the bearing being interposed, and a parking pawl that is rotatably fixed to the plate in a position that overlaps the plate in the axial direction.
