Disclosure to Promote the Right To Information

Whereas the Parliament of India has set out to provide a practical regime of right to
information for citizens to secure access to information under the control of public authorities,
in order to promote transparency and accountability in the working of every public authority,
and whereas the attached publication of the Bureau of Indian Standards is of particular interest
to the public, particularly disadvantaged communities and those engaged in the pursuit of
education and knowledge, the attached public safety standard is made available to promote the
timely dissemination of this information in an accurate manner to the public.

This standard is one of the series of Indian

Standards
on the basics of automotive
transmission
systems
and the arrrangement
of gears in the transmissions.
This standard
will help to
standardize
the industry practice and help in clear understanding
of the functional
inter-relations
of the gearing,
clutches, hydrodynamic
drive unit and other transmission
components.
In the preparation
of this standard,
assistance
has been derived
from SAE J 647

1.1 This standard

specifies through
schematic
diagrams,
the gear
arrangements
in transmission systems of automotive
vehicles.
1.2 For the purpose of clarity,
the transmission
in neutral
and in gear have been illustrated.
2 TRANSMISSION

IN NEUTRAL

2.1 Five Speed Countershaft

Transmission

Fig. 1 illustrates
five speed countershaft
transmission which is constant
mesh in all forward
. Each gear is identified
according
to the
~~f~cular
transmission
speed it provides
when
engaged,
for example,
first, second, third, etc.
The numl>cr of teeth in each gear is indicated.
Synchsonized
and
positive

are
schematically
represented
with a drive dog and

plates and one driven
plate are used to designate the plate clutch asseml,ly.
The reverse
idler gear is shown out of position for clarity.

Transmission

Fig. 4 illustrates

the two axes ( differential is not illustrated
).
3 TRANSMISSION

IN GEAR

3.1 Five Speed Countershaft

Transmission
Fig. 5 illustrates
the countershaft
transmission
in gear with the torque path denoted by straight
bold arrows.
Curved arrows indicate
direction
of shaft rotation.
Active members are designated with sections cross-hatched.
For example,
for engagement
in the third
gear, the main
shaft third gear is clutched
to the output
shaft.
This is schematically
illustrated
by means of the
drive dog engaging
the slot in the gear.
3.2 Four Speed Planetary
Transmission

Gear

Fig. 6 illustrates
the four speed planetary
gear
transmission
in gear with the torque path
denoted 1)~ straight lmltl arrows.
Curved
arrows
indicate
direction
of shaft
rotation.
Active
memhcrs
are designated
with sections
crosshatched.
For example,
second gear is illustrated
in Fig. 4. The pertinent
brake hand is crosshatched to denote brake application.
Additional
information
added to this diagram
is optional,
Ihe speed of the sun gear,
ring
gear
and
carriers
is designated
for 100 rev/min
input
speed; clutch plate speed differential
is designated for 100 rev/min input speed; and torque of
the sun gear, ring gear and carrier
is designated fur 100 T input torque.
