An electric axle is provided. The electric axle includes, in one example, a first electric machine directly coupled to a first planetary gear set, a second electric machine directly coupled to a second planetary gear set and a housing. The housing includes a first section that encloses the first electric machine and the first planetary gear set, a second section that encloses the second electric machine and the second planetary gear set, and a decreased diameter section that extends between the first section and the second section.

Electric axle with compact electric machine and gearbox arrangement

Systems are provided for a differential carrier assembly for a vehicle. In one example, a system includes a planet carrier coupled to a differential carrier and a planet carrier comprising a plurality of planet shafts including a cutout interfacing with a pilot interface of the differential carrier.

Systems for differential assembly

An electric drive axle of a vehicle includes an electric motor having an output shaft. A compound idler assembly is connected to the electric motor. The compound idler assembly includes at least one gear-clutch assembly in driving engagement with the output shaft of the electric motor. A differential is connected to the compound idler assembly, and in selective driving engagement with the compound idler assembly.

Multi-speed gearbox with a gear-clutch assembly

Systems are provided for an integrated oil shroud and pump oil pickup. In some examples, an assembly may include an oil shroud element configured to enclose a lower portion of at least one rotating gear of a gearbox, and an oil intake element with an oil filter and an oil outlet configured to couple to a pump of an oil recirculating circuit, where the oil intake element is in face-sharing contact with the oil shroud element.

Integrated gear oil shroud and pump oil pickup

An electric drive axle of a vehicle includes an electric motor having an output shaft. An idler assembly is drivingly coupled to the electric motor and a differential. The idler assembly includes a first gear-clutch assembly to facilitate a first gear ratio and a second gear-clutch assembly to facilitate a second gear ratio.

Multi-speed gearbox and the drive axle made therewith

A high ratio traction drive transmission includes a sun roller, a traction ring, a plurality of traction planets in contact with the sun roller and the traction ring, at least one reaction roller in contact with at least one of the traction planets, and a carrier assembly coupled to at least one of the traction planets and the at least one reaction roller. The sun roller has a first longitudinal axis and the traction ring is aligned coaxially with a second longitudinal axis, wherein the first longitudinal axis is radially offset from the second longitudinal axis.

High ratio traction drive transmission

The present disclosure discloses a child safety seat comprising: (a) a supporting base structure adapted to be secured to a vehicle seat; (b) a child seating surface wherein the seating surface comprises a seat bottom and a seat back, and wherein the seat back has disposed therein at least one pair of laterally spaced shoulder belt restraints; (c) a child harness wherein the harness comprises a pair of shoulder belts running from the restraints in the seat back to a seat bottom locking tongue, each shoulder belt having a restraint engaging means affixed to an extreme end of the belt for insertion into the laterally spaced pair of restraints in the seat back, and a buckle affixed to the front center portion of the seat bottom for receiving the seat bottom locking tongue; and (d) an emergency means of disengaging at least one of shoulder belts from at least one of the restraints in the back of the seat, the disengaging means being actuated from the rear face or side of the seat.
