  • Modulatable marine transmission clutches including fluid-operated nonrotating pistons for clutch engagement
    Patent number: 8066107
    Abstract: A marine reverse and reduction transmission with modulatable marine transmission clutches including fluid operated nonrotating pistons for effecting clutch engagement by compression of the plates, the pistons generating thrust that is transferred through bearings between the pistons and the rotating clutch packs and gears to the transmission housing parts.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 23, 2009
    Date of Patent: November 29, 2011
    Inventor: George Reisch Aschauer
  • Motor driven ball and ramp clutching system for a marine transmission
    Patent number: 7793768
    Abstract: An electric motor applies torque to a ball and ramp actuator element generating thrust that is transferred through a bearing from the stationary actuator to the rotating clutch pack elements of a marine transmission.

  • Wet friction device with inward and outward circulating cooling means
    Patent number: 7055657
    Abstract: An interleaved friction plate braking device having a multiplicity of confined curved or slanted vanes on the outside diameter of the rotating driven plates to impact a stationary fluid reservoir and impart inward flow thru passages to more completely cool and lubricate the sliding surfaces.

  • Interleaved multi-disc friction device using a fan to generate a vaporous air/oil mixture for cooling means
    Patent number: 6880679
    Abstract: An interleaved friction plate device in which the plates can be clampingly engaged to synchronize, accelerate or decelerate a load, means for cooling and lubricating the surfaces of the friction plates which includes a centrifugal fan that acts as a support and drive for the friction discs and discharges a vaporous air/oil mix uniformly through a multiple plate stack, to more completely cool and lubricate the friction surfaces.
