Abstract

Transmissions, park systems, and methods of operating transmissions are disclosed herein. A transmission includes an input shaft to receive torque from a drive unit, an output shaft to transmit torque to a load, and a park system to selectively brake the output shaft. The park system includes a park actuation assembly having a park gear in direct contact with the output shaft, an actuator to supply rotational power, and an actuation linkage coupled between the actuator and the park actuation assembly.
