Abstract
Methods and systems for a hydromechanical transmission are provided herein. In one example, the transmission operating method includes asynchronously shifting between a first pair of drive ranges in the transmission via operation of two clutches and a variable displacement hydraulic pump in a hydrostatic assembly. In the method, asynchronously shifting between the two drive ranges includes a plurality of phases that include a swiveling phase where a speed of the hydrostatic assembly is inverted.
