Abstract: A two speed transmission system particularly for marine use includes a first clutch for connecting an input shaft to a co-axial output shaft, a lay shaft typically parallel to the input and output shafts, a first gear train for connecting the input shaft to the lay shaft for driving the same via the input shaft, and a second gear train connecting the lay shaft to the output shaft. The first clutch connects the input shaft to the output shaft; and a second clutch connects the input shaft to the output shaft via the lay shaft giving a gear ratio other than one to one. The gear trains are selected to provide a higher gearing i.e. faster spinning of the lay shaft when the second clutch is engaged. A control system receives inputs from various sensors including clutch pressure sensors, sensors measuring the speed of the input shaft and output shafts respectively and sensors providing information relating to the position of gears in the gear trains and controls the first and second clutches. Control valves and electro-hydraulic solenoids may be used to provide controlled clutch slip for docking and other functions where very low speeds of the order of a few knots may be desired. The control system may also be used to control the solenoid to allow slipping of the clutch when initiating movement of the watercraft to avoid the problem of “clunking” as the boat is put into, or taken out of, gear.

Abstract: Mutual interference between rotation and turning drive forces is prevented by a simple structure. A transmission shaft and a turning body are supported at a housing so as to be relatively coaxially rotatable. An input shaft is connected to the transmission shaft, and a first sun gear is fixed thereon. First planetary gears meshing with the first sun gear are supported at a rotating body, which is connected to an output shaft. A second sun gear is provided on a hollow-cylindrical shaft fixed to the housing. Second planetary gears supported at the turning body mesh with the second sun gear. A first and second inner gears mesh with the first and second planetary gears respectively. They are corotatably connected by a connection ring. A rotating shaft is perpendicularly connected to the output shaft through bevel gears. A casing supporting the output and rotating shafts and is joined to the turning body.

Abstract: A two-speed transmission (30) with reverse gearing for a watercraft (10). The transmission is disposed in the gimbal housing (25) passing through the transom (14) of the watercraft. A pair of planetary gears (46,80) share a common ring gear (40) to provide both forward-reverse and first-second gearing in a very compact package. The transmission housing may be formed in two portions, a first housing (32) containing the forward-reverse gear mechanisms and a second housing (62) containing the first-second gear mechanism. The transmission output shaft (64) is connected to the drive shaft (122) of a vertical drive unit (24) by a double universal joint (74) that may be replaced without disassembling the transmission components.
