A power transmission set for tractioned axles of vehicles. The power transmission set includes at least one coupling/uncoupling device, a selector unit, a primary shaft, and a secondary shaft. The shafts are interconnected by the selector unit to select and control a type of motor propulsion applied to a tread axle of a vehicle. The shafts cooperatively with the coupling/uncoupling device are configured to provide a configuration in which only a combustion engine is responsible for propulsion; in which only an electric motor provides propulsion; in which both the combustion engine and the electric motor work together to generate torque; or in which the tread axle is uncoupled from the combustion engine and the electric motor and the combustion engine provides power to the electric motor to generate electricity. A vehicle for the transport of cargo and passengers including the power transmission set.

Power transmission unit for shafts and vehicle for carrying passengers and goods

A wheel hub for tandem axles including a housing, a reduction system, sun gears, planetary gears and a connection sleeve. The housing contains the reduction system, which is formed by the conical sun gears and the conical planetary gears that are accommodated in a supporting structure. The sun gears are mounted in a yoke that is attached to the supporting structure. The conical planetary gears are attached, respectively, to a differential housing in a fixed way and to an end of a semi-draft having free rotation. The connection sleeve is mounted in the end of the semi-draft having concentric mobility in relation to the conical planetary gear through an actuator system placed in an end of the supporting structure. The connection sleeve is formed by a body having a surface with double connection toothing disclosing a toothing of the yoke, and the toothing of the conical planetary gear.
