Projections protruding towards a cam plate and a disc are provided on both axial side surfaces of the retainer at a plurality of positions at which phases of the projections in the circumferential direction are offset from pockets. One axial direction surface of the cam plate and the disc are formed with concave portions at portions facing the respective projections. The concave portions have an axial depth deepest at a center portion thereof in the circumferential direction and becoming shallower towards both end portions thereof.

Some embodiments are directed to a gearing assembly including a rotary input member, a rotary output member and a gearing arrangement between the input member and the output member selectively engageable to effect a driving engagement between the input member and the output member through at least a first torque connection having a first gear ratio and a second torque connection having a second gear ratio. One of the rotary input member and the rotary output member includes a first shaft and the first torque connection includes a first dog clutch including a dog hub having a hub set of teeth and a surrounding dog ring including a ring set of teeth. The hub and ring sets of teeth are radially projecting and mutually engageable. The dog hub is mounted on the first shaft so as to allow axial movement of the dog hub relative to the shaft.

A gear shifting device, by which an axial shift movement of a shift element into a shift position is triggered through interaction of a shift pin with an associated groove-like shift gate that changes in an axial direction. The shift element features the associated shift gate, while the respective shift pin is arranged in a radially displaceable manner on a transmission component adjacent to the shift element.

A transmission includes a fork mechanism in which a plurality of fork rods to which a plurality of shift forks are connected are each attached to a pedestal so as to be moveable in an axial direction. An assembly guide portion is disposed on the pedestal and a guide pin is erected on a clutch housing. As a result, even in cases where an input shaft and a main shaft, on which driving and driven gears and synchro devices are assembled, are assembled on the clutch housing in a state that the driving and driven gears are engaged and, thereafter the fork mechanism is assembled on this clutch housing, the assembly of the fork mechanism on the clutch housing can be easily performed.

An acuator for a shift-by-wire system includes a drive motor installed inside a motor housing, the drive motor having a drive shaft, and a decelerator inside a decelerator housing coupled with the motor housing, the decelerator coupled to the drive shaft. The decelerator includes a sun gear connected to a first side of an eccentric part of the drive shaft, a ring gear engaged with the sun gear and fixed to the decelerator housing, an output shaft connected to a second side of the eccentric part, a first bearing coupled to one side of the eccentric part and supporting the sun gear, a second bearing coupled to the other side of the eccentric part and supporting the output shaft, and a power delivery unit coupled to the sun gear and the output shaft in a center region between the first and second bearings.

A transmission unit for a motor vehicle transmission includes a spur gear (6) which is arranged rotatably on an intermediate shaft (5) and which can be fixed to the intermediate shaft (5) for the transmission of drive power via clutch means. On one side flank (9) of the spur gear, a first freewheel gear portion (10) is provided which can be connected to a corresponding shaft-side second freewheel gear portion (11) via an internally toothed sliding sleeve (12). On the opposite side flank (13) of the spur gear, a parking lock gear portion (14) is provided for engaging a pawl (15) to block the transmission unit when the vehicle is at a standstill.

A shift control apparatus of an automatic transmission includes: an input detecting unit configured to detect a real rotational speed of the input shaft; an output detecting unit configured to detect a real rotational speed of the output shaft; an estimating unit configured to estimate an estimated rotational speed of the input shaft, which corresponds to a shift request, by multiplying the real rotational speed of the output shaft by a target gear ratio; and a control unit configured to control the rotation of the input shaft based on a detection result from the input detecting unit. The control unit controls the rotation of the input shaft such that an upper-limiting rotational speed of a variation in real rotational speed of the input shaft is lower than the estimated rotational speed.

A brake device of a transmission according to the present invention includes: a rotary-side holding member including an inner peripheral surface having a cylindrical surface shape about an axis extending in a forward/rearward direction and configured to hold a rotary-side friction plate on the inner peripheral surface; a fixed-side holding member including an outer peripheral surface having a cylindrical surface shape about the axis extending in the forward/rearward direction and configured to hold a fixed-side friction plate on the outer peripheral surface; and a lubricating oil supply portion supplying lubricating oil to the fixed-side friction plate and the rotary-side friction plate. The fixed-side holding member is provided in a transmission casing so as not to rotate. The rotary-side holding member is provided in the transmission casing at a radially outer side of the fixed-side holding member and is rotatable about a central axis of the inner peripheral surface.
