<p>A synchronizer and gear assembly for a power transmission has a split cone ring 24 rotatable with a ratio gear 12 and a split bearing ring 28 rotatable with the synchronizer ring. During ratio change, an axially directed force applied to the synchronizer ring develops axial and radial components at the split cone ring. The axial component imposes a first frictional torque on the cone ring, whereas the radial component causes contraction of the cone ring about the split bearing ring to create a second frictional torque, acting on the cone ring. The contraction of the cone ring causes contraction of the bearing ring, which frictionally engages a hub portion 74 of the ratio gear and thereby creates a third frictional torque, which is transmitted to the hub portion. The three frictional torques are additive to cause the ratio gear to accelerate or decelerate for providing speed synchronization between a shift ring 20, the synchronizer ring and the ratio gear.</p> |
