    Abstract: A gearbox comprising a main unit comprising a first casing and a first hollow shaft, and a secondary unit comprising a second casing and a second hollow shaft, and a drive shaft comprising a first clutch portion and a second clutch portion, which engage the first and second hollow shafts in an angularly fixed and axially sliding manner. The gearbox further including an axial retaining device comprising an axial shoulder supported in a fixed potion by an axial end on one of the first or second hollow shafts, and an external radial projection arranged in an intermediate position, and an external radial projection arranged in an intermediate position along the drive shaft between the first and second clutch portions.

    Abstract: An axially hyperstatic system softener for a transmission comprising a static component and a rotatable component mounted to each other by a double ball bearing having an outer race and an inner race includes first and second biasing elements in a rigid sleeve with the outer race disposed between the first and second biasing elements. The rotatable component includes two shafts splined together with the static component mounted to one of the shafts by the bearing double ball bearing. A shim between one of the biasing elements and the sleeve enables tuning the softener.
