A multi-stage transmission for a vehicle may include an input shaft, an output shaft, first, second, third, and fourth planetary gear devices disposed between the input shaft and the output shaft to transmit rotary force, each of the first, second, third, and fourth planetary gear devices having three rotary elements, and at least six shifting elements connected to the rotary elements of the planetary gear devices.

A transmission (G) is provided with four planetary gear sets (P1, P2, P3, P4), several shafts (W1-W8) and a first, second, third, fourth and fifth shift element (B1, B2, K1, K2, K3), the selective meshing of which brings about different transmission ratio relationships between a transmission input shaft (GW1) and a transmission output shaft (GW2). The second shift element (B2) and/or the fifth shift element (K3) is arranged, in a series at a sixth shift element (K4), in the power flow between the fifth shaft (W5) and a sun gear (So-P4) of the fourth planetary gear set (P4).

A planetary gear train of an automatic transmission for a vehicle may include an input shaft receiving torque of an engine, an output shaft outputting changed torque, a first planetary gear set, a second planetary gear set, a third planetary gear set, a fourth planetary gear set, a first rotation shaft selectively connected to a transmission housing, a second rotation shaft, a third rotation shaft selectively connected to the transmission housing, a fourth rotation shaft directly connected to the input shaft, a fifth rotation shaft selectively connected to the second rotation shaft, a sixth rotation shaft, a seventh rotation shaft selectively connected to the input shaft, and selectively connected to the fifth rotation shaft or the sixth rotation shaft, and an eighth rotation shaft directly connected to the output shaft.

The present disclosure provides a multiple speed transmission having an input member, an output member, a plurality of planetary gearsets, a plurality of interconnecting members and a plurality of torque-transmitting mechanisms. Each of the plurality of planetary gearsets includes a sun gear, a ring gear, and a carrier member with pinion gears. The input member is continuously interconnected with at least one member of one of the plurality of planetary gear sets, and the output member is continuously interconnected with another member of one of the plurality of planetary gear sets. At least ten forward speeds and one reverse speed are achieved by the selective engagement of the plurality of torque-transmitting mechanisms.

Ten forward speeds and one or more reverse speed are achieved by a planetary gear train of an automatic transmission for a vehicle including an input shaft, an output shaft, four planetary gear sets respectively having three rotational elements, and six control elements for selectively interconnecting the rotational elements and a transmission housing.

A planetary gear train of an automatic transmission for the vehicle may include: an input shaft receiving torque of an engine; an output shaft outputting torque; a first planetary gear set including first, second, and third rotation elements; a second planetary gear set including fourth, fifth, and sixth rotation elements; a third planetary gear set including seventh, eighth, and ninth rotation elements; and a fourth planetary gear set including tenth, eleventh, and twelfth rotation elements.

A clutch that includes a friction plate; a separator plate; a clutch hub; and a piston that presses the friction plate and the separator plate, wherein the clutch hub includes a hub on which an inner peripheral portion of the friction plate or the separator plate is fitted, a tubular shaft that movably supports the piston, and an engagement oil chamber defining wall that together with the piston defines an engagement oil chamber to which an engagement oil pressure is supplied, the hub is spline-fitted on a gear of a planetary gear so as to rotate with the gear, and the tubular shaft is rotatably supported by a central shaft and is fitted by a spigot joint in the gear.

A planetary gear train of an automatic transmission for a vehicle having an input shaft for receiving torque of an engine; an output shaft for outputting torque; a first planetary gear set including first, second, and third rotation elements; a second planetary gear set including fourth, fifth, and sixth rotation elements; a third planetary gear set including seventh, eighth, and ninth rotation elements; and a fourth planetary gear set including tenth, eleventh, and twelfth rotation elements, improves power delivery performance and fuel economy by achieving at least ten forward speed stages.

An automatic transmission, which is configured such that there is no difference of rotation between a third sun gear and an intermediate shaft in a state where a second clutch is brought into a release state and a seventh speed stage is established, is provided. In the automatic transmission, at the time of a gear shift from a tenth speed stage where second and third clutches and a first brake are brought into an engagement state to a seventh speed stage where first, third, and fourth clutches are brought into an engagement state, the fourth clutch is engaged and the first brake is released to establish the seventh speed stage with the second clutch in the engagement state. Then, the first clutch is engaged and the second clutch is released to make transition to the seventh speed stage with the second clutch in the release state.

A hybrid drive train (10) for a motor vehicle, includes a dual clutch assembly (14) with a first clutch (K1) and a second clutch (K2) having a shared input element (EG) connectable to an internal combustion engine (12). The first clutch (K1) includes a first output element (AG1), and the second clutch (K2) includes a second output element (AG2). A transmission arrangement (16) includes a first sub-transmission (32) and a second sub-transmission (34). An input shaft (24) of the first sub-transmission (32) is connected to the first output element (AG1), and an input shaft (26) of the second sub-transmission (34) is connected to the second output element (AG2).
