MECHANICAL UNLOCKING MECHANISM FOR ELECTRONIC PARKING
A mechanical unlocking mechanism for electronic parking is provided, which comprises a parking cam assembly, a pawl assembly, a parking gear, a pull cord assembly and an actuating assembly. The parking cam assembly comprises a parking guide shaft and a parking cam. The parking cam is sleeved on the parking guide shaft. The outer side of the parking cam is provided with an arc protrusion along a circumferential direction, so that with the rotation of the parking cam, the pawl assembly is in a first position where the parking gear parks in and a second position where the parking gear parks out. One end of the pull cord assembly is connected with the actuating assembly, and the other end of the pull cord assembly is connected with the parking guide shaft. The actuating assembly drives, via the pull cord assembly, the parking guide shaft to translate, thereby driving the pawl to move from the first position to the second position. The mechanical unlocking mechanism according to the present disclosure provides an emergent mechanical unlocking function when the parking motor is powered off, and the driver can perform manual mechanical unlocking in the cab without getting off the vehicle, so it has high safety and good operation comfort.
POWER TRANSMISSION DEVICE
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.
MANUAL TRANSMISSION LOCK FOR PARKING ASSISTANCE
A gearshift lock for a gearbox includes a gearshift cylinder and a pawl wheel with a toothing. The gearshift lock includes a rotatably positioned pawl, and the pawl engages in the toothing of the pawl wheel in a locked position, and is disengaged from the pawl wheel in a freewheeling position. The pawl is pretensioned by a spring element in the direction of the locked position, and an engagement element is connected to the pawl. The engagement element holds the pawl in the freewheeling position by directly interacting with the gearshift cylinder against the effect of the spring element when the gearshift cylinder takes up a rotational position in a freewheeling rotational range, and the pawl can be released from the gearshift cylinder into a locked position by the engagement element when the gearshift cylinder takes up a rotational position in a locked rotational range.
Park system integration with chain drive
A parking mechanism located on a final drive or primary drive of a vehicle to engage or disengage an output shaft connected to wheels of the vehicle. The parking mechanism includes a back drive chain on the final drive or primary drive that engages with a parking pawl. A cam assembly biases the parking pawl to engage with the back drive chain to prevent rotation of the wheels.
Method and device for checking the engagement of a parking brake finger
A method is provided for checking engagement and disengagement of a parking brake finger, which selectively blocks or blocks a shaft of the transmission. A motor-driven rotary selection plate is selectively controlled to butt against the transmission casing at the two ends of its travel, and is immobilized therebetween in a first functional engagement position and in a second functional disengagement position that correspond to the Park and non Park positions of the parking brake finger when the drive motor of the plate stops exerting torque thereon. The angular movements of the plate between its abutment positions are measured and incremented using a computer to determine whether the engagement position and disengagement position of the plate that is reached every time the drive motor is stopped corresponds to a command instruction given to the motor.
Rotary actuator
A rotary actuator is used in a shift-by-wire system for a vehicle. A speed reducer includes a ring gear and a sun gear and reduces a rotational speed of the motor. An output shaft outputs rotation of the motor at a reduced rotational speed by the speed reducer. A regulating pin is disposed in a fixing member and allows the sun gear to revolve around a rotational axis of the motor and to rotate about an eccentric axis. The regulating pin is a separate member from the fixing member. The regulating pin has a strength equal to or greater than a maximum torque reaction force received from the sun gear. A first difference in hardness between an engaging portion and the sun gear is set to be less than a second difference in hardness between the fixing member and the sun gear.
Parking lock for a motor vehicle
A parking lock for a motor vehicle includes a pivotably mounted locking pawl (20), an interlocking element (60), and a guide rod (40). A spring element (80) preloads the locking pawl (20) in a disengagement direction of the parking lock. A first free end (83) of the spring element (80) is supported directly on a support section (24) of the locking pawl (20) and, during the swiveling of the locking pawl (20), rests against the support section (24) in a stationary manner. A second free end (85) of the spring element (80) is supported directly on a support contour (43) of the guide rod (40) and, during an axial movement of the guide rod (40), slides along the support contour (43). The geometry of the support contour (43) is configured such that the preload force of the spring element (80) does not decrease during the disengagement of the parking lock.
Electric parking lock apparatus
An electric parking lock apparatus includes a parking mechanism, an electric actuator, an engagement member, a first urging member, and a first electromagnetic solenoid. The parking mechanism includes a parking gear and a parking pawl. The engagement member includes first and second engagement elements. The first engagement element includes a proximal end coupled to the first urging member. The second engagement element includes a proximal end coupled to a brake pedal of the vehicle. In a state of power supply failure, the first electromagnetic solenoid allows the first engagement element to swing in the direction for engaging with the second engagement element. In the state of power supply failure, the engagement elements engage with each other when the brake pedal is released from a depressed state, and the parking pawl is caused to swing in a direction for engaging with the parking gear as the brake pedal is released.
Parking lock for an automatic transmission in a motor vehicle
A parking lock includes a locking pawl (2) and an interlocking element (6) arranged on a connecting bar (5) to a selector lever (4). The end of the connecting bar (5) facing away from the interlocking element (6) is articulatedly connected to the selector lever (4). A hydraulically actuatable actuator (10) includes two pistons (11, 12) provided for disengaging the parking lock. During normal operation, a detent device (13), which is actuatable by an electromagnet (13a), locks the first piston (11) in a piston position corresponding to an engaged condition (P_ein) or a disengaged condition (P_aus). Without requiring activating the electromagnet (13a) to release the detent device (13), the parking lock, during normal operation, is manually disengagable with an emergency disengagement device (15) acting upon the second piston (12) and is manually engagable with an emergency engagement device (16) acting upon the detent device (13).
Drive apparatus
A drive apparatus includes a power assembly rotatable about a first axis, a transmission to transmit power of the power assembly, and a parking assembly provided in the transmission. The transmission includes a first gear rotatable around a first axis, a second gear to mesh with the first gear and rotatable around a second axis, a third gear to rotate around the second axis together with the second gear, and a fourth gear to mesh with the third gear and rotatable around a third axis. The parking assembly includes a parking gear rotatable around the first axis together with the first gear, a parking pawl that includes a meshing portion and is rotatable around a fourth axis, and a drive assembly to rotationally move the parking pawl around the fourth axis and operate the parking pawl.
