PLANETARY GEAR [ET6A-EL (US)]

PLANETARY GEAR [ET6A-EL (US)]

id0517n13518x5



Purpose/Function

• The planetary gear is a mechanism which shifts the drive force from the engine. The planetary gear consists of multiple gears which rotate individually while revolving. By controlling the individual rotation and revolving of the gears, the transaxle performs gear shifting at the optimum gear speed according to the driving conditions.



Construction

• The planetary gear is positioned in the order of the front planetary gear, rear planetary gear, and reduction planetary gear from the torque converter side.
• The front planetary gear and rear planetary gear are a single- type, and the reduction planetary gear is a double pinion gear-type.
• For the component parts of each planetary gear, refer to the following figure.

• The planetary gear is composed of the sun gear, pinion gear, planetary carrier, and internal gear as shown in the figure.
am3zzn00007319
• There are two types of pinion gear rotation, rotation (rotation) on an axis of the center for each pinion gear and rotation (revolution) on an axis of center for the planetary carrier. The planetary gear operates shifting function by switching the input, fixed, or output of the internal gear, pinion gear, and planetary carrier.

• The relation of rotation speed of each element for the planetary gear set is generally indicated as follows: (Z R + Z S) N C = Z R N R + Z S N S: (1)
