Abstract
A transmission for a motor vehicle is provided. The transmission has a hydraulically or electrically operable gearshift sleeve, a clutch pack, an input shaft, and an output shaft, a gearshift sleeve, a gearshift sleeve claw, and an opposing output claw associated with the output shaft. The gearshift sleeve can be moved from an initial position into a first position, in which the gearshift sleeve transfers an axial force by way of the first ramp element and the second ramp element to the clutch pack for synchronization of the disks, and into a second position, in which the gearshift sleeve claw is connected to the output claw interlockingly in the direction of rotation and thus the input shaft and the output shaft are interlockingly coupled. A method for shifting such a transmission is also provided.
Claims19
A transmission, comprising:
- a hydraulically or electrically operable gearshift sleeve;
- a clutch pack;
- an input shaft;
- an output shaft which is rotatably mounted about an axis of rotation;
- a first ramp element;
- and
- a second ramp element,
- wherein
- the gearshift sleeve has a gearshift sleeve claw, the output shaft has an output claw, which is arranged so as to lie opposite the gearshift sleeve,
- the input shaft and the output shaft are concentrically arranged with the input shaft being at least partially radially within the output shaft,
- the gearshift sleeve is movable axially in a direction parallel to the axis of rotation from an initial position into a first position in which the gearshift sleeve transfers an axial force by way of the first ramp element and the second ramp element to the clutch pack for synchronization of disks of the clutch pack while remaining disconnected from the output sleeve, and
- the gearshift sleeve is movable axially further in the same direction parallel to the axis of rotation into a second position in which the gearshift sleeve claw is connected to the output claw interlockingly in a direction of rotation and thus the input shaft and the output shaft are interlockingly coupled.
