MULTIPLE RATIO MANUAL TRANSMISSION

摘要

A manual transmission mechanism adapted for use in an engine-driven automotive vehicle comprising a mainshaft and a countershaft, gearing arranged on each of said shafts, and synchronizer clutch structure which is arranged to accommodate a shift linkage mechanism for actuating the synchronizer clutch sleeve so the synchronizer clutch arrangement makes possible a location of the driver-operated shift linkage in close proximity to the synchronizer clutch sleeves and permits an efficient shift pattern for the driver-controlled shifter and a simplified assembly of the linkage mechanism.
