摘要:
The family of transmissions has a plurality of members that can be utilized in powertrains to provide at least seven forward speed ratios and one reverse speed ratio. The transmission family members include three planetary gear sets with three fixed interconnections and six torque transmitting mechanisms. The powertrain includes an engine and torque converter that is continuously connected to at least one member of the planetary gear arrangement and an output member that is continuously connected with another of the planetary gear members. The six torque transmitting mechanisms provide interconnections between various gear members and with the transmission housing, the input or output shaft, in some instances, and are operated in combinations of two to establish at least seven forward speed ratios.

A magnetorheological fluid clutch has a pair of radially spaced magnetic core members that cooperate with an input rotor to form a pair of working gaps filled with magnetorheological fluid (MRF). An encapsulated electric coil disposed in a radially inner of the two magnetic cores is energized to establish a magnetic field through the cores, the input rotor and the MRF to establish a torque transmitting relation therebetween. The magnetic cores are secured to a channel ring and a housing in both of which a plurality of cooling channels are formed. The channels in the housing are in fluid communication with an input path to a serpentine flow path formed between the radially outer magnetic core and the housing to direct liquid cooling flow thereto. A return path from the serpentine flow path is in communication with the channels in the channel ring to direct liquid cooling flow therefrom. Further cooling passages are formed in the housing, channel ring, and radially inner magnetic core to direct liquid cooling through an annular chamber containing the encapsulated electric coil. The liquid cooling flow from the annular chamber and the channels in the channel ring are commingled and returned to a reservoir.

A family of transmissions includes three planetary gearsets and five torque-transmitting mechanisms. Each family member may be employed in a powertrain to provide six forward speed ratios and one reverse speed ratio when the torque-transmitting mechanisms are engaged in combinations of two in a selected manner. Each planetary gearset includes three planetary members; namely, a sun gear, a ring gear, and a planet carrier assembly member. The first member of the first planetary gearset is continuously connected with the first member of the second planetary gearset. The second member of the first planetary gearset is continuously connected with a first member of the third planetary gearset. The second member of the second planetary gearset is continuously connected with the second member of the third planetary gearset. An input shaft is continuously connected with one of the members of the planetary gearsets and an output shaft is continuously connected with another member of the planetary gearsets. Three of the torque-transmitting mechanisms are of the selectively engageable stationary type torque-transmitting mechanisms, or brakes, and two of the torque-transmitting mechanisms are rotating type torque-transmitting mechanisms, or clutches.
摘要:
A family of transmissions is incorporated into powertrains to provide six forward speed ratios and one reverse speed ratio between an engine and a final drive mechanism. Each of the family members includes three planetary gearsets, one of which is an input planetary gearset and the other two are interconnected ratio planetary gearsets. Each transmission family member employs three rotating type torque-transmitting mechanisms (clutches) and two stationary type torque-transmitting mechanisms (brakes) to provide the six forward speed ratios and one reverse speed ratio. These torque-transmitting mechanisms are selectively engaged in combinations of two during the establishment of the speed ratios within the family member. Two of the rotating torque transmitting mechanisms are selectively connectable between the faster rotating member of the input planetary gearset and the two interconnected planetary gearsets and the remaining rotating torque transmitting mechanism is selectively connectable between the slower rotating member of the input planetary gearset and at least one member of the interconnected planetary gearsets.

摘要:
A powertrain includes an engine and torque converter, a planetary transmission, and a final drive mechanism. The planetary transmission is selected from a family of transmissions wherein each family member has a first, a second, and a third planetary gear set; and each planetary gear set has a first, a second, and a third member. All of the family members have five torque transmitting mechanisms of the rotating type commonly named clutches. Each of the first members of the first and second planetary gear sets is continuously connected with a stationary portion of the transmission, and each of the first members of the third planetary gear set and the second member of the second planetary gear set are interconnected for common rotation by a connecting member. The input shaft is continuously connected with a member of one of the planetary gear sets, and the output shaft is continuously connected with another member of the planetary gear sets. The five clutches provide selective interconnections between members of the planetary gear sets and also between the planetary gear members and the input and output shaft. The clutches are engaged in combinations of two to establish at least six forward speeds and a reverse speed.
