Transmission arrangement and method for load equalization in a transmission arrangement

Abstract

A transmission arrangement (1) with at least two countershafts for a vehicle, in particular a utility vehicle, comprises an auxiliary drive output (10) that is coupled by way of a torque-transmitting element (11) to a first countershaft (7) and a second countershaft (8) can be coupled with a transmission brake device (12) to bring about load equalization between the countershafts (7, 8) when the auxiliary output (10) is coupled to the first countershaft (7). A method for load equalization between the countershafts (7, 8) of a transfer transmission when an auxiliary output (10) is engaged such that, in a first shift position of a main group (2) of the transfer transmission, in which the countershaft (7) not coupled to the auxiliary output (10) is free from load, and a load torque is applied to the load-free countershaft (8) for load equalization.
