    摘要: A cone shaped transmission apparatus automatically changes gear ratios for the rear drive wheels. The conical shape of the transmission apparatus enables a pair of wing arms to hingedly articulate, so as to change spacing and position relative to each other. This changing articulation of the wing arms displaces a wing collar that works to drive a plurality of shaft gears along a central shaft into selective mesh engagement with drive gears in the vehicle. Gear ratios between about, 1:1 to 3:1 are achieved. A tapered cylinder forces the hingedly articulating wings to change spacing and position relative to each other to axially displace at least one shaft gear into meshed engagement and disengagement with a plurality of drive gears. The transmission connects to an engine, flywheel, and torque converter to transfer power to the drive wheels. A hydraulic and electrical system enables operation of the transmission apparatus.
