<p>A dual clutch transmission (1) that includes an engine coupling (2), a first input shaft (3) with at least one first ratio defining gear (30a, 30b, 30c, 30d), a second input shaft (5) with at least one second ratio defining gear (50a, 50b, 50c, 50d), first and second clutches (4, 5 6) and an override (75h). The first input shaft (3) is connected to the engine coupling (2) via the first clutch (4), while the second input shaft (5) is connected to the engine coupling (2) via the second clutch (6). The first clutch (4) is connected to the second clutch (6) such that an actuation force exerted, in use, by a clutch actuator (52a, 53a, 54) to the second clutch (6) disengages the first clutch (4) and engages the second clutch (6). The override (75h) is operable to cause both of the first and second clutches (4, 6) to be disengaged at the same time.</p> |
