Function of Transmission
1. At low speeds, the torque produced by an IC
engine is very high, which increases with
increase of speed, peaks at some optimum
speed and starts decreasing beyond that.
2. The transmission also provides a neutral
position so that the engine and the road wheels
are disconnected even with the clutch in the
engaged position.
3. A means to back the car by reversing the
direction of rotation of the drive is also provided
by the transmission.
Need of Transmission
• Variation of resistance to the vehicle motion
at various speeds
• Variation of tractive effort of the vehicle
available at various speeds

Sliding Mesh Type Of Gear Box
It is simplest type of gear box out of the
available gear box
Gears are changed by sliding one gear on the
other
At a time only one gear is meshing with
another gear

Constant Mesh Type Gear Box
In this type of gear box, all the gears are in
constant mesh with the corresponding gears
on the lay-shaft
The gears on the main shaft which is splined,
are free
The dog clutches are provided which are free
to slide on the main shaft
The gear on the main shaft are, however, fixed
Constant Mesh Type Gear Box
Double Declutching
For smooth engagement of the dog clutches,
it is necessary that speed of main shaft gear
and the sliding dog must be equal
To obtain lower gear the speed of the clutch
shaft, lay shaft and main shaft gear must be
increased this is done by Declutching
Procedure For Double Declutching
The clutch is disengaged and the gear is brought to
neutral
Then the clutch is engaged and accelerator pedal
pressed to increased the speed of the main shaft
gears
After this the clutch is again disengaged and the
gear moved to the required lower gear and clutch
is again engaged
As the clutch is disengaged twice in this process, it
is called Double Declutching
Synchromesh Gear Box
The working of above gear is similar to constant
mesh type gear, but in the former there is one
definite improvement over the latter
There is the provision of synchromesh device
which avoids the necessity of double de-clutching
The parts which ultimately are to be engaged, are
first brought into frictional contact which
equalizes their speed, after which these may be
engaged smoothly
Synchromesh Gear Box
Epicyclic Gear Box
An epicyclic gear box contains two, three or even
four epicyclic or planetary gear sets.
• A simple gear set has a sun gear, about which
planet turn around.
• These planet gears are carried by a carrier and a
shaft and are also in mesh internally with a ring
gear, which is also called annulus or internal gear
sometimes.
• Different torque ratios i.e. speed ratios are
obtained by making any one of the parts, viz, the
sun gear, the planet gear and the annulus
stationary.
Epicyclic Gear Box
Wilson Gear Box
Wilson Gear Box
• Various gear ratios are obtained as follws:
Direct Gear: This is done by locking S1 to A by
applying the clutch C. In this position we get a
solid drive and direct gear is obtained
Third gear: S1 is held stationary by means of
brake B1. In this position, arm A1 is coupled to
ring R2 and arm A2 is coupled to ring R1
Wilson Gear Box
Second gear: Brake B2 is applied to keep the
ring R2 stationary. The sun gear S2 is already
fixed to the engine shaft A. Arm A2 is also
coupled to the ring R1
First gear: Brake B3 is applied to obtain the
low gear
Reversed gear: Brake B4 is applied which
holds the ring R4 stationary
Borg Warner Gear Box
Borg Warner Gear Box
 It is simply a combination of the torque
converter and epicyclic gear trains
The turbine of the torque converter drives the
ring gear of the first gear train through e free
wheel
The drive to the ring gear of the second gear
train is then taken from the planet carrier of
the first train so that the two act in series
