Abstract: A lubricating and cooling epicyclic stepdown gearing, for example in an aeroengine turbomachine, including a cylindrical casing mounted on a planet-carrier of the gearing and forming a centrifugal scoop surrounding stationary oil-delivery strips, the cylindrical casing including radial ducts feeding nozzles pointing towards zones where the planet gears mesh with outer ring(s) of the gearing.

Abstract: A control apparatus of an automatic transmission having first and second frictional engagement elements that achieve higher and lower speed gear stages respectively, includes a target value determination section setting a rotation speed difference between input and output sides of the frictional engagement element, a total torque capacity calculation section calculating a total torque capacity, a distribution ratio determination section setting a distribution ratio of the total torque capacity to the first and second frictional engagement elements, an individual torque capacity calculation section calculating individual torque capacities respectively required of the first and second frictional engagement elements, and an engagement control section controlling engagement conditions of the first and second frictional engagement elements in accordance with the individual torque capacity.

Abstract: The power shift for vehicles has clutches and brakes in the form of multi-disc clutches which consist of disc sets; instead of the multi-disc brake for the reverse drive range, a form-locking clutch such as a disc synchronization is provided which in engaged state transmits the retaining torque via form locking and in disengaged state is freely rotatable and thus free of loss.
