ABSTRACT:
A transmission including a first and a second single-pinion planetary gear unit and a third double-pinion planetary gear unit, which are coaxially disposed so as to provide different speed reduction ratios. The three gear units have respective first, second and third sun gears, respective first, second and third planetary gears, respective first, second and third ring gears, and respective first, second and third carriers. The first and second sun gears are fixed to each other for rotation as a unit, or connectable to each other by a coupling device. The first carrier and the second ring gear are fixed to each other or connectable by a coupling device. The first and third ring gears are fixed to each other or connectable to each other by a coupling device. The second and third carriers are fixed to each other or connectable by a coupling device. This arrangement allows shifting operations of the transmission, without racing of the engine or locking of the transmission.
