摘要:
A method for controlling a hydrodynamic retarder in a motor vehicle that can be mechanically disengaged via a disconnect clutch, comprising a drive motor whose power output is controlled via an actuator such as a foot pedal or a lever; whereby in an overrun operation the acceleration of the motor vehicle is collected or detected and compared with a pre-specified acceleration value; and whereby in the non-braking mode the disconnect clutch is engaged, regardless of an initiation of a braking mode by an operator of the motor vehicle or a driver assist system and the working chamber is maintained drained when the acceleration exceeds an acceleration limit.

The invention relates to an actuator comprising a stationary structure and an actuating element that is movable relative to the stationary structure, a device for locking the actuating element in position which is mounted on the stationary structure and has a state for locking and a state for releasing the actuating element. The locking device comprises, successively, a stress limiter and at least one locking element so arranged as to be butting against one surface of the actuating element, in order to oppose a motion of the actuating element in a predetermined direction. The actuator comprises a member for controlling the locking device in the releasing state thereof and a member for resiliently returning the locking device to the locking state thereof.

Provided are half system torque brakes, aircraft utilizing these brakes, and methods of installing these brakes. A half system torque brake includes an input cam assembly slidably disposed on a compression shaft between first and second output cam assemblies. The second output cam assembly is disposed between the input cam assembly and a rotor-stator assembly. When a torque differential between the input cam assembly and either one of the output cam assemblies exceeds its threshold, the same rotor-stator assembly is engaged and prevents further rotation of any cam assembly. Specifically, when the torque differential corresponding to the first output cam assembly exceeds its threshold, this assembly advances away from the input cam assembly and pulls the compression shaft in the same direction, which in turn engages the rotor-stator assembly by advancing the pressure plate to the second output cam assembly. The second output cam engages the rotor-stator assembly directly.

A clutch assembly attachable to a rotational output shaft of the engine, wherein the clutch assembly is configured to drive at least one implement of a lawn maintenance vehicle is provided. The clutch assembly includes a first pulley fixedly attached to the output shaft, a second pulley independently rotatable relative to the first pulley, and a belt extending between the first and second pulleys and an idler pulley that is movable between an engaged position and a disengaged position. The clutch assembly further includes a third pulley directly connected with the second pulley, wherein rotation of the second pulley is directly transferred to the third pulley, and rotation of the third pulley provides an output rotation of the clutch assembly.

A drive arrangement for a shaft has a module carried by the shaft and including a motor, a driven wheel and a drive wheel. The motor, gearbox and drive wheel are carried on a slider plate which can slide transverse to the axis of the shaft. A front plate is fixed transverse to the axis of the shaft. A Bowden cable has its sheath attached to the front plate, and its inner cable attached to the slider plate, so that manipulation of the Bowden cable at a remote location allows force to be applied between the plates either tightening the belt to apply drive from the motor to the shaft, or releasing tension in the belt, to disengage the drive.

A torque limiting device includes a base configured to reside in a fixed position relative to a drive unit, an input shaft assembly configured to receive a torque load from the drive unit, and an output shaft assembly which is capable of rotating about an axis. The torque limiting device further includes detent members disposed adjacent to the input shaft assembly and the output shaft assembly. The detent members are configured to transition the torque limiting device between (i) a drive state in which the input shaft assembly rotates the output shaft assembly about the axis and (ii) a tripped state in which the input shaft assembly does not rotate the output shaft assembly about the axis depending on forces provided to the detent members, by the input shaft assembly, in respective radial directions away from the axis and toward the base.

A shift control apparatus includes an automatic transmission provided with a first friction-engagement element and a second friction-engagement element; and a friction-engagement element control section configured to control the first and second friction-engagement elements. The friction-engagement element control section includes a target-value setting section configured to set a first target differential speed; a first control section configured to bring a rotational speed difference of the first friction-engagement element gradually close to the first target differential speed; and a second control section. The second control section includes a torque-capacity calculating section configured to calculate a total transfer-torque capacity, and a distribution ratio setting section configured to set a distribution ratio between transfer-torque capacities of the first and second friction-engagement elements. The second control section sets transfer-torque capacities of the first and second friction-engagement elements on the basis of the calculated total transfer-torque capacity and the set distribution ratio, and adjusts each of engagement-control parameters for the first and second friction-engagement elements in accordance with the set transfer-torque capacities of the first and second friction-engagement elements.
