ABSTRACT:
An automatic transmission includes a fluid torque converter and a first and a second gear transmission mechanism each of which has two coaxial drive members - a power input member and a power output member - and is selectable to any one of several speed ratios. Rotational power is output from the fluid torque converter to the first gear transmission mechanism. The torque converter, and the first gear transmission mechanism including the power input and output members thereof, are all coaxial on a first axis. A through lay shaft extends along a second axis parallel to the first axis, and passes through the second gear transmission mechanism, whose power input and output members are also coaxial on the second axis, so as to support these. A rotational power transfer mechanism transfers rotational power between the power output member of the first gear transmission mechanism and the power input member of the second gear transmission mechanism.
