Abstract

Provided is a vehicular continuously variable transmission in which a forward second speed and a reverse first speed are realized in a forward / reverse control mechanism of a vehicular continuously variable transmission, whereby power performance and fuel economy improvement effect can be obtained.

Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a continuously variable transmission for a vehicle,

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a continuously variable transmission for a vehicle, and more particularly to a vehicular continuously variable transmission in which two simple forward planetary gear sets are combined to realize forward forward second speed and reverse first speed, will be.

Generally, a continuously variable transmission used in a vehicle is constituted by a continuously variable transmission belt mechanism and a forward / reverse control mechanism.

In the step-variable shifting mechanism, the rotational power of the engine is inputted to the primary pulley and output through the secondary pulley. In this case, the continuously-variable shifting is realized by varying the radiuses of the primary pulley and the secondary pulley.

The forward and backward control mechanism includes a single or double pinion planetary gear set and a plurality of friction elements for controlling the planetary gear set so that the rotational power is switched in the forward or reverse direction under the control of the friction element.

The forward and backward control mechanisms may be configured so that only forward and backward control can be performed. However, in order to improve the power performance and fuel economy, the forward and reverse control mechanisms are configured to be controlled to the forward second speed reverse speed.

In the continuously variable transmission, the conventional forward and reverse control mechanisms of the forward second speed and reverse first speed according to the present invention are configured as shown in FIG.

The planetary gear set PG constituting the forward and backward control mechanism is a Ravigne type complex planetary gear set, which is a combination of a single pinion planetary gear set and a double pinion planetary gear set, and shares the planetary carrier with the ring gear, The first sun gear S1 and the second sun gear S2, and the planetary carrier PC and the ring gear R. [

The second sun gear S2 is directly connected to the input shaft IS to operate as an input element. The planetary carrier PC is directly connected to the output shaft OS to operate as an output element.

The first sun gear S1 is connected to the transmission housing H through the first brake B1 to operate as an optional fixed element and the ring gear R is driven via the second brake B2 The planetary gear set PG is selectively connected to the transmission housing H so that the planetary gear set PG is operated as an optional fixed element. The ring gear R selectively connects the planetary carrier PC to the planetary carrier PC, So that the whole can be directly connected.

Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 2, the second brake B2 is operated in the reverse gear range REV, the first brake B1 is operated in the first forward speed, and the clutch C1 is operated in the second forward speed .

However, in the Ravigneaux type complex planetary gear set applied to the forward and reverse control mechanisms of the continuously variable transmission, in order to reduce the gear ratio difference between the first forward speed and the second forward speed, the number of teeth of the first sun gear S1 is the number of teeth of the second sun gear S2 The first sun gear S1, the second sun gear S2, the second pinion gear P2 and the ring gear R are designed while sharing the first pinion gear P1 of the second gear It is difficult to reduce the gear ratio difference between the first forward speed and the second forward speed to 2 or less while considering the limited package space for the vehicle and the vehicle.

In this case, the gear ratio difference between the first forward speed and the second forward speed is set to 2 or less because the larger the gear ratio difference during shifting, the less the transmission feel is. In order to reduce the gear ratio difference between the forward forward speed and the forward forward speed, .

In order to reduce the gear ratio difference between the first forward gear and the second forward gear while using the three friction members C1, B1, and B2, the first pinion gear P1 includes a first sun gear S1, The number of teeth of the second sun gear S2 must be different from that of the second sun gear S2 and the number of teeth of the second sun gear S2 must be changed into two stages. However, there is a problem that productivity is lowered due to extremely difficult processing due to generation of interference with gears having large outer diameters.
At the second forward speed, the planetary carrier PC and the ring gear R are connected while the clutch C1 is operating. At this time, since the torque sharing ratio of the planetary carrier PC is large and the transmission torque of the clutch is large, This large clutch is required. The use of a clutch having a large capacity as described above is very disadvantageous in terms of size and weight, and there is a problem in that the freedom of design is lowered.
The second pinion gear P2 supported on the planetary carrier PC does not rotate and the second sun gear S2 and the ring gear R rotate in the forward second speed because the planetary gear set PG rotates 1: ), The power is transmitted through the tooth surface and tooth surface mutually interposed between the tooth surface and the tooth surface. As a result, an excessive load is continuously applied to the contact tooth surface, And there is a risk of breakage.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, the present invention has been made keeping in mind the above problems occurring in the prior art, and it is an object of the present invention to improve the transmission feeling by reducing the difference between the first forward speed and the second forward speed gear ratio, The present invention provides a continuously variable transmission for a vehicle that prevents wear and corrosion due to continuous overload action on the engaged tooth surfaces of the pinion gears, thereby increasing power performance and fuel economy, .

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a continuously variable transmission comprising a continuously-variable shifting belt mechanism and forward and reverse control mechanisms,

The forward and backward control mechanisms are composed of a compound planetary gear set PG and a combination of three friction members C1, B1, and B2, each of which is composed of a combination of the first and second planetary gear sets PG1 and PG2, The compound planetary gearset PG is connected to the transmission housing H through a first brake N2 and a first rotary element N1 directly connected to the input shaft IS and operating as an input element, A second rotary element N2 that operates as an optional fixed element and a third rotary element N2 that is directly connected to the output shaft OS and is variably connected to the input shaft IS via the first clutch C1, And a fourth rotary element N4 which is variably connected to the transmission housing H via the first brake B1 and operates as an optional fixed element.

The first and second planetary gear sets PG1 and PG2 may be a single pinion planetary gear set.

The compound planetary gearset PG is configured such that the first planetary carrier PC1 and the second ring gear R2 are directly connected by the first rotary member M1, and the first ring gear R1 and the second planetary carrier The first planetary carrier PC1 and the second ring gear R2 are connected to each other by a first rotary element N1 directly connected to the first rotary member PC2 by the second rotary member M2, A third rotary element N3 composed of the first ring gear R1 and the second planetary carrier PC2 and a third rotary element N3 composed of the second sun gear S2, (N4).

The friction member can be shifted by operating the second brake B2 at the reverse shift stage and operating the first brake B1 at the first forward speed and operating the first clutch C1 at the forward second speed .

According to the present invention configured as described above, by using two simple planetary gear sets and three friction members that are advantageous in the degree of freedom in designing gear ratios for each stage, the difference between the forward first gear and the forward second gear ratio is reduced, .

The input shaft IS is directly connected to the output shaft OS by the operation of the clutch C1 in the forward second speed mode so that the transmission torque of the clutch C1 is not required to be large so that the clutch having a small capacity can be applied. Accordingly, the clutch C1 is advantageous in size and weight in comparison with the prior art, and the design freedom can be enhanced.
In addition, the first sun gear S1 and the second sun gear S2 are disposed on one output shaft OS to solve the noise problem that may occur due to eccentricity during operation of the two planetary gear sets.

As in the prior art, the power transmission is made directly to the output shaft through the clutch C1 in the second forward speed, and the acting load on the contact tooth surface due to the fixed planetary gear unit 1: 1 acts only on the inertia of the rotating member Therefore, the size of the tooth surface is very small, so that tooth surface abrasion or erosion does not occur, and generation of gear noise due to damage of the tooth surface can be fundamentally prevented.
