Abstract
A power transmitting apparatus for a vehicle, includes a variable connecting device, an input device, a speed output device having first and second synchronizer modules, and a reverse speed device. An even-numbered highest speed gear is disposed at one of synchronizer modules related to even-numbered speeds among the synchronizer modules. An odd-numbered highest speed gear is disposed at one of synchronizer modules related to odd-numbered speeds among the synchronizer module.
Claims8
A power transmitting apparatus for a vehicle, comprising:
- a variable connecting device including a first clutch and a second clutch and configured to selectively output torque of a power source through the first clutch and the second clutch;
- an input device including a first input shaft and a second input shaft, the first input shaft being selectively connected to the power source through the second clutch and having first, second, and sixth input gears fixedly disposed on an exterior circumference thereof, the second input shaft being selectively connected to the power source through the first clutch and having third, fourth, and fifth input gears fixedly disposed on an exterior circumference thereof;
- a speed output device including a first output shaft disposed in parallel with the first and second input shafts, a first speed output unit disposed on the first output shaft and having a first synchronizer module for achieving two speeds among first, third, fifth and sixth forward speeds and a second synchronizer module for achieving two speeds among second and fourth forward speeds, the sixth forward speed and a reverse speed, a second output shaft disposed in parallel with the first and second input shafts, and a second speed output unit disposed on the second output shaft and having a third synchronizer module for achieving the other two speeds among the second, fourth and sixth forward speeds and the reverse speed and a fourth synchronizer module for achieving the other two speeds among the first, third, fifth and sixth forward speeds;
- and
- a reverse speed device including a reverse speed shaft and an idle gear and a reverse input gear fixedly disposed on the reverse speed shaft, wherein the idle gear is engaged with one input gear on the first and second input shafts and the reverse input gear is engaged with the second synchronizer module disposed on the first output shaft,
- wherein one sixth speed gear for achieving the sixth forward speed is disposed at the third synchronizer module and another sixth speed gear for achieving the sixth forward speed is disposed at the fourth synchronizer module.
