| 20130112522 | CLUTCH DEVICE - The clutch device comprises a first clutch element and a second clutch element, which are each supported in a rotational manner on a common axis of rotation. In an engaged state, the clutch elements are coupled to one another in a form-locking manner by a sliding sleeve. The sliding sleeve is attached to the first clutch element in a rotationally fixed and axially displaceable manner. A peripheral surface of the sliding sleeve is provided with at least one step, having a first step flank and extending with a first step course on the peripheral surface of the sliding sleeve, wherein the first step course also has, at least in sections, at least one axial directional component in the direction of the axis of rotation. A placement agent can be displaced radially back and forth between an engaging placement agent position and a disengaging placement agent position, and is otherwise stationary. | 05-09-2013 |
| 20130240318 | DOG CLUTCH FOR AUTOMATED TRANSMISSION - A dog clutch for an automated transmission includes a rotary shaft rotatably connecting to one of an input shaft and an output shaft of the automated transmission, a clutch ring rotatably supported by the rotary shaft and rotatably connecting to the other of the input shaft and the output shaft, a clutch hub fixed to the rotary shaft, a sleeve including first teeth and second teeth, an axial driving device moving the sleeve, and a dog clutch portion arranged at the clutch ring, the dog clutch portion including: clutch forward teeth each having an engagement portion contactable with each of the first teeth, and inclined surfaces extending from the engagement portion toward both sides in a circumferential direction and inclined toward a rear end position of the dog clutch portion; and a clutch rearward tooth portion engageable with the second teeth and including clutch rearward teeth. | 09-19-2013 |
| 20130256080 | CLUTCH ASSEMBLY WITH A TAB RIVET CONNECTION AND METHOD THEREOF - A clutch assembly, including: a hub including a first radially disposed portion with a plurality of circumferentially aligned slots passing though the first radially disposed portion; and a ring gear carrier including a plurality of protrusions disposed in the plurality of circumferentially aligned slots and in compressive engagement with the hub to fixedly connect the hub to the carrier. Each slot in the plurality of circumferentially aligned slots extends further in a circumferential direction than in a radial direction. Each protrusion in the plurality of protrusions extends further in the circumferential direction than in the radial direction. | 10-03-2013 |
| 20130277164 | COUPLING AND CONTROL ASSEMBLY - A coupling and control assembly includes a coupling subassembly and a control subassembly integrated with the coupling subassembly. The control subassembly has a reciprocating member and actuators operatively connected to the reciprocating movement for controlled reciprocating movement therewith to move or pivot respective struts received within pockets of a coupling member of the coupling subassembly. The reciprocating member converts a pressure of a working fluid at its working face to move linearly together with the actuators from its first position which corresponds to a first operating mode of the coupling subassembly to its second position which corresponds to a second operating mode of the coupling subassembly. | 10-24-2013 |
| 20130327610 | DRIVING FORCE TRANSMISSION APPARATUS - A driving force transmission apparatus includes: a housing having an inner peripheral spline portion; an inner shaft having an outer peripheral spline portion; a main clutch including first outer and inner clutch plates respectively engaged with the inner and outer peripheral spline portions; a cam mechanism generating pressing force for pressing the main clutch by relatively rotating a pair of cam members; and an electromagnetic clutch mechanism including an armature engaged with the inner peripheral spline portion and applying rotation force to the cam mechanism for relatively rotating the cam members through energization of an electromagnetic coil. An end face facing the armature is formed in the inner peripheral spline portion between a first region engaged with the first outer clutch plate and a second region engaged with the armature. Movement of the armature toward the first region is regulated by contact of the armature with the end face. | 12-12-2013 |
| 20140008171 | DRIVING DEVICE AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - A clutch mechanism used in a system in which first and second driven members are driven using one driving source. The mechanism includes a driving member, a driving side engaging member, an idler side engaging member, an urging unit, a releasing member provided with a cam surface configured to cause the driving side engaging member to move axially, and to perform engagement or release of the driving side engaging member with or from the idler side engaging member, and a cam member provided with a cam surface configured to engage with the cam surface of the releasing member. In at least one of the releasing member and the cam member, at least a portion where collision occurs when the releasing member has moved in an axial direction to approach the cam member, is formed of an elastic member. | 01-09-2014 |
| 20140144744 | Clutch Controller - A claw clutch includes first and second rotors disposed coaxially with each other, and is switched between an engaged state engaging teeth of the rotors and a disengaged state releasing the engagement. An actuator moves either one of the rotors in an axial direction to switch the clutch between the states. A synchronization controlling unit controls an electric motor coupled to the second rotor to cause its rotation number to approach the rotation number of the first rotor when the clutch is switched to the engaged state. An engagement controlling unit that controls the actuator moves either one of the rotors to a position where the teeth are engaged before a difference in rotation speed between the rotors falls within a predetermined range and the rotation number of the second rotor reaches that of the first rotor when the clutch is switched to the engaged state. | 05-29-2014 |
| 20140326569 | Concealing Device - The invention relates to a concealing device for the separable connection of the at least one loose drum rotatably mounted on the main shaft ( | 11-06-2014 |
