Abstract: The present invention relates to adjustment and/or drive units which can be used in wind power plants for adjusting the azimuth angle of the nacelle of the wind power plant or the pitch angle of the rotor blades, wherein such an adjustment and/or drive unit has at least two adjusting drives for rotating two assemblies which are mounted so as to be rotatable relative to each other, and has a control device for controlling the adjusting drives. The control device controls the adjusting drives in such a manner that the adjusting drives are braced relative to each other during the rotation of the two assemblies and/or when the assemblies are at standstill. The invention further relates to a wind power plant comprising such an adjustment and/or drive unit, and to a method for controlling such an adjustment and/or drive unit.

Abstract: A working machine including a working assembly that can be driven by an engine, with the engine being connectable to the working assembly via a power branching transmission including a first mechanical power branch and a second electric or hydraulic power branch, the first and second power branches being combined by a summation transmission that can be coupled to the working assembly on the output side and provides a variable transmission ratio between the first mechanical power branch and the working assembly that can be adjusted by the rotational speed of the second electric or hydraulic power branch. A blocking device is provided for blocking the variability of the transmission ratio that can be adjusted between the first mechanical power branch and the output side of the summation transmission by the rotational speed of the second electric or hydraulic power branch.
