<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a dual clutch type transmission having two input shafts connected to clutches respectively, and an intermediate shaft, which transmission can avoid an excessive agitation of lubricating oil in the transmission and an increase of noises by preventing the idle running of the intermediate shaft in high-speed running, etc. of a vehicle. <P>SOLUTION: A direct connection clutch C3 is arranged between one input shaft S2 and an output shaft S4 of the dual clutch type transmission, and further an intermediate shaft connecting clutch C4 for carrying out and stopping the transmission of power is arranged between the intermediate shaft S3 and the output shaft S4. When the power is directly transmitted from the input shaft S2 to the output shaft S4 via the direct connection clutch C3, the rotation of the intermediate shaft S3 is stopped by disengaging the intermediate shaft connecting clutch C4 in order to prevent an excessive agitation of lubricating oil due to the idle running of the intermediate shaft S3. Further, the length of the transmission can be shortened by omitting one gear train by configuring speed changing stages by disengaging the intermediate shaft connecting clutch C4 and by utilizing the gear trains between two input shafts and the intermediate shaft S3. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT</p> |
