Abstract
A method for power transmission method includes providing first and second shafts, first and second gear assemblies between the first and second shafts, and first and second coupling assemblies. The first coupling assembly coupling the first shaft to the first gear assembly, and the second coupling assembly coupling the first shaft to the second gear assembly. The speed of the first shaft varies, wherein the deployment of a locking element of the second coupling assembly is based on the speed of the first shaft.
