A baulkring-type synchronizer mechanism (18) includes cone clutch friction surfaces (24,48 and 26,50) and sets jaw clutch teeth (58,28 and 60,30) for frictionally synchronizing and positive connecting gears (14,16) to ashaft (12). Blocker teeth on baulkrings (40,42) pre vent asynchronous engagement of the jaw clutch teeth and transmit operator shift forces (Fo) f rom a shift sleeve (34) to the cone clutches. Angled self-energizing surfaces (72a, 72b, 74a, 74b) are affixed to an outer circumference of a hub (32) and engage angled self-energizing surfaces (76a,76b,76c,76d) affixed to a shift sleeve (34) to provide an additive force (Fa) that is transmitted via the bl ocker teeth to the cone clutches. The jaw clutch teeth include axially movable fi rst and second sets of teeth (58,60) defined by the shift sleeve (34) and axially fi xed sets of teeth (28,30) secured to the gears. When the sleeve is in a neutral position, the first and second sets of the teeth (58,60) are loosely dispose d respectively in portions of grooves in hub (32). When one of the first and second sets of teeth (58,60) are engaged with one of the fixed sets of teeth , the other of the first and second sets is closely received in a portion of its a ssociated groove. |
