Abstract: A toothed selector clutch is provided to operate in a hydrostatic/mechanical, split-torque power-shift transmission comprising a four-shaft epicyclic-gearwheel transmission and an infinitely variable hydrostatic transmission arranged in parallel. The selector clutch is associated with a particular gearwheel stage and is operated to select a particular gear. Gear changes take place at synchronous speeds without loading the engaging gear during the change and without interruption of the transmission of torque from the rotating shaft to the gear being disengaged. The toothed selector clutch is a coaxial double differential clutch with a clutch carrier that is arranged in a rotationally and axially fixed manner on a clutch shaft. A double piston, which can be subjected to a pressure medium on both sides, is provided as a shift bridge and is operatively connected to the clutch carrier by toothing thereby permitting torque transmission and axial displacement.

Abstract: A propulsion unit, preferably a propulsion unit for a utility vehicle, as well as a method for controlling same are disclosed. The propulsion unit comprises an engine, a transmission and a power take-off unit having a power take-off shaft. A first fraction of the engine output power is directed to the transmission, whereas a second fraction is directed to the power take-off shaft. At least one of the power fractions is detected by means of measuring units. The power fraction transmitted to the transmission is limited to a predetermined limit value. It is, therefore, possible to install a propulsion unit with an engine, the output power of which being higher than the admissible input power of the transmission.

The hydrostatic adjusting mechanism is connectable through the reverse transmission and the coupling to the drive.

Abstract: A process and device for controlling a hydrostatic positioning mechanism (HG) of a hydrostatic/mechanical, continuous output-distributing power shift gear in which after an engagement of a clutch (K2, K3) of a new gear in a load-free synchronous condition, the positive displacement volume is respectively continuously triggered for a change until the gear branch, which is still running, is released triggering by the clutch (K2, K3) to be disengaged respectively in the disengaging direction and by monitoring a setting signal of a clutch setting sensor (KS2, KS3) of the clutch (K2, K3) to be disengaged until a setting change is signaled.

Abstract: A process for controlling a hydrostatic adjustment gear (HG) of a hydrostatic-mechanical, continuous, split-output torque shift transmission, where a displacement volume (V.sub.new) is controlled following the engagement of a clutch (K2, K3) of a new gear, taking into consideration a leakage volume (DV.sub.old) in respect to a theoretical displacement volume (V.sub.th), after which the clutch (K2, K3) of the respective previously operating gear, which is still turning, is disengaged, where each new displacement volume (V.sub.new) is determined from the prior leakage volume (DV.sub.old) in accordance with different hydraulic pressure conditions in the adjustment gear (HG) prior to and following the shifting operation, where the setting of the new displacement volume (V.sub.new), which is determined in accordance with the hydraulic pressure conditions from the prior leakage volume (DV.sub.old), takes place in respect to the theoretical displacement volume (V.sub.th) in accordance with a new leakage volume (DV.

Abstract: A power transmission having a four-shaft double planetary gear (I, II), which is driven on the one hand via a turning gear (WG) and on the other via a variable-displacement gear (HG) and is connectable on the power take-off side via selectable ratio gears via controllable clutches (K1A-K7A) to a power take-off shaft (AW3) and is connectable on the power take-off side retroactively via two of the selectable ratio gears (G4, G5) by means of a startup clutch (K0B), as a result of which with the turning gear (WG) disengaged, a fully hydraulic startup range is provided, and the other gear ranges are mechanically-hydraulically split in terms of power when the turning gear is engaged.All the clutches are double claw clutches.The startup clutch has a special construction, with a sliding sleeve.The transmission is especially suitable for agricultural machines, because it is fully reversible. Other versions are shown.

Abstract: A power transmision with a hydrostatically branched variable-displacement gear (HG), a two-stage epicyclic gear (I, II) and a mechanical 8-speed transmission that can be operated in forward and reverse, and with a control system (ST) that triggers the clutches (VV, VR, V0-V8) of the mechanical gear means such that for starting, the variable-displacement gear (HG) is shifted unbranched to the output shaft (ASW) and the clutches are each shifted in a load-free manner, and only on shifting up to 6th gear via the clutch (K5) of the 5th gear and on downshifting to a selectable 4th gear via the 4th-gear clutch (K4) a synchronization of the intermediate shaft (ZW) is effected. Starting and reversing are done by hydrostatically; the efficiency is high; the mechanical transmission factor is approximately 60; synchronization wear is low; and there are only two synchronizing clutches (K4, K5).
