ABSTRACT:
In a planetary geartrain for automotive transmissions, this invention improves a fuel economy by reducing drag resistance caused from non-operating friction elements in the high speed cruising.
In the planetary geartrain composed of planetary gear sets and friction elements, this invention enables a A member fixed to a case in the forward first and the reverse position to be connected selectively to the case or an input shaft through series of a multiplate clutch assembly and a dog clutch.
