ABSTRACT:
A planetary gear train is arranged to include two planetary gear sets, four clutches and two brakes and to input rotational energy (engine torque) through a relatively large diameter element (in low gears) until a relatively high gear is reached whereafter the input is made through one or both of a smaller diameter element and the previously mentioned larger one. This arrangement inherently avoids energy wasting closed loop transmission paths from being established between the two gear sets.
