FOURTH GEAR POWERFLOW
Speed and torque are not converted by the direct
gear ratio of the 4th gear. Power is transferred from
the drive shaft (25) to the output shaft (26) via three
locked planetary gearsets (Fig. 8) and (Fig. 9).
Front Planetary Gear Set
The planetary carrier (13) and sun gear (21) are
connected via the engaged multiple-disc clutch K1
(7). The planetary gearset is therefore locked and
turns as a closed unit at the input speed due to the
mechanical connection of the annulus gear (8) and
the drive shaft (25).
