Abstract: A control apparatus for a vehicular transmission including at least one dog clutch each having a first dog member mounted on a first shaft such that the first dog member is rotated together with the first shaft, and at least one second dog member each mounted to be axially adjacent to the first dog member and rotatable relative to the first shaft, first gears each mounted to be rotatable relative to the first shaft and provided with the second dog member, second gear which are mounted such that the second gears are rotated together with a second shaft parallel to the first shaft, and which mesh with the respective first gears, and a shifting mechanism for selectively placing each dog clutch in an engaged or released state.

Abstract: A vehicle transmission has a plurality of gear positions that are to be selectively established, and includes: an input shaft; a first shaft; a second shaft; an output shaft; at least one first drive gear disposed on the first shaft; at least one second drive gear disposed on the second shaft; at least one driven gear disposed on the output shaft; a dog clutch connecting and disconnecting between the input shaft and each of the first and second shafts; and a synchronous meshing apparatus. The synchronous meshing apparatus connects and disconnects between each of the first and second shafts and the output shaft, and, when connecting between each of the first and second shafts and the output shaft, establishes a power transmission path from each of the first and second shafts to the output shaft via a selected one of the at least one first or second drive gear.

Abstract: A first dog ring and a second dog ring are biased toward each other by means of springs. When the first dog ring and the second dog ring are moved away from each other, bias force produced by the springs is applied to the second dog ring in a direction to draw the second dog ring toward the first dog ring. Accordingly, when the first dog ring is moved away from the second dog ring during shifting, the second dog ring is drawn toward the first dog ring under the bias force, and third engaging teeth of the second dog ring and meshing teeth of a first-speed gear are promptly disengaged from each other.

Abstract: A transmission includes a gear shift set including a shift gear and a switching mechanism, and another gear shift set including a shift gear and a switching mechanism. At a side face of the lower shift gear, dogs are provided to protrude. The switching mechanism includes a first ring configured to rotate integrally with a shaft, a second ring configured to rotate integrally with the first ring, and an elastic member connecting the first ring and the second ring. The first ring includes first projection portions, and a first abutment portion allowing a shift member to abut thereon. The second ring includes second projection portions, and a second abutment portion allowing the shift member to abut thereon.

Abstract: The invention describes powders for use in the production of spatial structures, i.e. molded bodies, using layer build-up methods, as well as methods for their efficient production. The powders have the special feature that they have good flow behavior, for one thing, and at the same time, have such a composition that the molded body that can be produced with the powder, using rapid prototyping, has significantly improved mechanical and/or thermal properties. According to a particularly advantageous embodiment, the powder has a first component that is present in the form of essentially spherical powder particles, which is formed by a matrix material, and at least one further component in the form of stiffening and/or reinforcing fibers, which are preferably embedded in the matrix material.

Abstract: Described are powders for use in the production of three-dimensional structures or molded bodies by means of layered manufacturing methods, and methods for the economical production thereof. The powders have the particularity that they have a good flow behavior, on the one hand, and that they are simultaneously configured such that the molded body produced with the powder in rapid prototyping has substantially improved mechanical and/or thermal characteristics. In accordance with a particularly advantageous embodiment, the powder comprises a first fraction that is present in the form of substantially spherical powder particles and that is formed by a matrix material, and at least one further fraction in the form of strengthening and/or reinforcing fibers that are preferably embedded into the matrix material.
