Popis: | 99 An epicyclic gear mechanism for automobile transmissions is a device which is connected from engine to driving wheels, and the main purpose is to maintain the revolution speed of engine to be in a desired working range while accelerating or decelerating the automobile. The epicyclic gear mechanisms for automobile transmissions in production are mostly Ravigneaux-type, Parallel-connected type and Lepelletier epicyclic mechanisms, and the Lepelletier epicyclic gear mechanisms is a device which is connected with a simple epicyclic gear mechanism besides the input end to increase the total number of speed ratios of an automatic transmission. For the incompletion in the relative design methodology, a systematic methodology of designing Lepelletier epicyclic gear mechanisms for automobile transmission is described. At first, fundamental and gear-shifting operations of the Lepelletier-type automatic transmissions is introduced, and the basic principles of lever analogy is explained, the gear ratio’s analysis for Lepelletier epicyclic gear mechanisms is illustrated to establish the design requirements. Secondly, gearing-sequence is devised base on the lever analogy diagrams, and a systematical procedure to arrange desired clutches and brakes into epicyclic gear mechanisms is provided, then the number of the teeth of all gears can be calculated. At last, the six-speed and eight-speed Lepelletier automatic transmissions are designed base on the above design procedure. The results of this work obtain 19 types of automatic transmission which could reach six-speed. |
