Abstract:

A clutch assembly includes a housing, a rotational member configured to rotate relative to the housing about an axis, and a clutch pack coupled between the housing and the rotational member. The clutch pack is configured to regulate movement of the rotational member relative to the housing. The clutch pack includes a speed sensor ring coupled to the rotational member such that the speed sensor ring is configured to rotate with the rotational member about the axis. The clutch assembly includes a sensor in communication with the speed sensor ring. The sensor is configured to measure an angular velocity of the rotational member relative to the housing.

Abstract:

A combination starter-generator device is provided for a work vehicle having an engine. The starter-generator device includes an electric machine; a gear set configured to couple the electric machine and the engine in first and second power flow directions, the gear set configured to operate in one of at least first, second, and third gear ratios in the first power flow direction and at least a fourth gear ratio in the second power flow direction; at least one clutch selectively coupled to the gear set to effect the first, second, and third gear ratios in the first power flow direction and the fourth gear ratio in the second power flow direction; and an actuator assembly including at least one electromagnet configured to selectively shift the at least one clutch between disengaged and engaged positions.
