Abstract: A drive train, including: a first electric motor; a second electric motor; and a transmission system including a first input shaft driveably connected to the first electric motor, a second input shaft driveably connected to the second electric motor, a first gear train including a first gear element rotatably mounted on the first input shaft and a second gear element rotatably mounted on the second input shaft, a second gear train including a third gear element rotatably mounted on the first input shaft and a fourth gear element rotatably mounted on the second input shaft, a gear selector assembly arranged to selectively lock either the first and third gear elements for rotation with the first input shaft or the second and fourth gear elements for rotation with the second input shaft.

Abstract: A transmission system including a first gear rotatably mounted on an input shaft; a second gear mounted on a lay shaft; a selector that selectively locks first and second gears for rotation with the input shaft and includes a single engagement ring with a first side having a first set of engagement elements each having a drive face that drivingly engages in a first rotational direction a first set of drive formations of the first gear and a non-driving face that slips with respect to the first set of drive formations in a second rotational direction, and a second side having a second set of engagement elements each having a drive face that drivingly engages in the second rotational direction a second set of drive formations of the second gear and a non-driving face that slips with respect to the second set of drive formations in the first rotational direction.

Abstract: A transmission system including a first input shaft (1) that is arranged to receive drive directly from a drive source (80), and a second input shaft (3) that is arranged to receive drive from the drive source via a drive interruption means (86), such as a friction clutch device, a first gear element (15) rotatable relative to the first input shaft (1) and a selector assembly (29) for selectively locking the first gear element (15) for rotation with the first input shaft (1) from operational modes that include the following modes: lock the gear element for rotation with the first input shaft in forward and reverse torque directions, lock the gear element for rotation with the first input shaft in the forward torque direction and not lock in the reverse torque direction; and lock the gear element with rotation with the first input shaft in the reverse torque direction and not lock in the forward torque direction. A method of performing a power on down shift is also provided.
