APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING A PLURALITY OF SYNCHRONIZERS IN A MANUAL PLANETARY TRANSMISSION

摘要

A planetary transmission has a plurality of torque-transmitting synchronizer mechanisms that are controlled to engage and disengage positions. The control of the torque-transmitting synchronizer mechanisms is accomplished through a plurality of cam slots and control rods that are disposed between a control mechanism and each of the torque-transmitting synchronizers to enforce engagement and disengagement of the synchronizers.
