Abstract: An oil lubrication system for a bearing positioned between two rotatable shafts, especially a pilot bearing (1) for a main shaft (3) in a transmission. The lube oil is fed predominantly radially inwardly on one side (11) of the pilot bearing (1) and is radially drained outwardly on the other side (12) via an annular drainage passage (8) located between the two shafts. An elastic rubber seal (4) is situated in the drainage passage (8) which, during operation, is opened by the centrifugal force or by the pressure of the lube oil pumped through the system and closes the drain passage (8) during downtime of the transmission. The elastic rubber seal (4) can be fastened to the input shaft (2) via a body (44) especially when the sealing lip (41) is to be opened by the centrifugal force. In addition, fastening to the main shaft (3) is also possible when the sealing lip is to be predominantly opened by the oil lube pressure pumped to the pilot bearing (1).

Abstract: A mechanical remote shift arrangement for shifting gears of a motor vehicle transmission with a remote shift bracket fastened to the vehicle, equipped with a shift lever, a shift rod array consisting of shift rods and articulations in the form of universal joints which transmit the shift motions to the shift mechanism. By supporting the shift rod array in the vehicle frame by means of idler arms, a shift mechanism with a high degree of efficiency is attained despite multiple deviation of the shift rod array from a straight line. The idler arms of the idler arm bearing are fastened to the vehicle frame either journaled in ball bearings via a bearing bracket, or via tie rod ends, and have, for incorporation into the shift rod array, either on a fastening flange of a universal joint or on the fastening flange of a shift rod, a tie rod end, which enables the oscillating motion of the idler arm as well as the rotary motion of the shift rod array.

Abstract: A lock synchronizer for gearing has a sleeve coupled to the synchronizing body which is engaged with a shaft by tiltable pressure pins which can entrain a synchronizing ring toward the gear whose side coupling teeth are engageable with inner coupling teeth of the sleeve. In addition a friction ring is provided in frictional engagement with the synchronizing ring and with face gearing engageable with face gearing of the gear. The friction ring, however, is free to rotate and to shift axially relative to the synchronizing body in both the neutral and fully coupled positions and is rotatably entrained with the gear only when the face gearings mesh.
