AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: mechanical engineering. SUBSTANCE: transmission has input and output shafts, inertial clutch, three pairs of wheels, and three idle mechanisms. The first central wheel of differential is mounted on the driving shaft of the inertial clutch. The carrier of the differential is mounted on the input shaft. The first pair of wheels connects the inlet shaft with the output shaft. The second pair of the wheels connects the hollow shaft with the output shaft. The third pair connects the hollow driving shaft of the inertial clutch with the output shaft. The first and second wheel pairs are coupled with the output shaft through the idle mechanism. The driven races of the mechanisms are mounted on the output shaft. The third idle mechanism is positioned between the central wheels. The differential and its driving race is coupled with the carrier of the differential. The driven race is coupled with the shaft of the inertia clutch. The inertial clutch is a control link. To change the condition of operation, respective idle mechanisms are connected or disconnected depending on the load on the output shaft and speed of rotation of the output shaft. EFFECT: enhanced reliability. 2 cl, 4 dwg
