8/7/2015 Directshift gearbox Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Directshift gearbox From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A directshift gearbox (German: DirektSchaltGetriebe[1]), commonly abbreviated to DSG,[2][3] is an electronically controlled dualclutch[2] multipleshaft manual gearbox, in a transaxle design – without a conventional clutch pedal,[4] and with full automatic,[2] or semimanual control. The first actual dualclutch transmissions derived from Porsche inhouse development for 962 racing cars in the 1980s. Partcutaway view of the Volkswagen In simple terms, a DSG is two separate manual gearboxes (and Group 6speed DirectShift Gearbox. [2] clutches), contained within one housing, and working as one unit. The concentric multiplate clutches [3][5] It was designed by BorgWarner,[4] and is licensed to the have been sectioned, along with the Volkswagen Group, with support by IAV GmbH. By using two mechatronics module. This also independent clutches,[2][5] a DSG can achieve faster shift times,[2][5] shows the additional power takeoff and eliminates the torque converter of a conventional epicyclic for distributing torque to the rear axle automatic transmission.[2] for fourwheel drive applications.

The first DSG transaxle that went into production for the Volkswagen Group mainstream marques had six forward speeds (and one reverse),[6][7] and used wet/submerged multiplate clutch packs[2][4] (Volkswagen Group internal code: DQ250, parts code prefix: 02E).[7][8] It has been paired to engines with up to 350 N·m (260 lb·ft) of torque,[6][7] and the twowheeldrive version weighs 93 kg (205 lb). It is manufactured at Volkswagen Group's Kassel plant,[2] with a daily production output of 1,500 units.[6] At the start of 2008, another world first,[6] an additional 70 kg (150 lb) sevenspeed DSG transaxle[6] (Volkswagen Group internal code: DQ200, parts code prefix: 0AM)[8][9][10] became available. It differs from the sixspeed DSG, in that it uses two singleplate dry clutches (of similar diameter).[10] This clutch pack was designed by LuK Clutch Systems, LLC.[11] This sevenspeed DSG is used in smaller frontwheel drive cars with smaller displacement engines with lower torque outputs,[6][7][10] such as the latest Volkswagen Golf,[6][10] Volkswagen Polo Mk5,[10] and the new SEAT Ibiza.[7] It has been paired to engines with up to 250 N·m (180 lb·ft).[12] It has considerably less oil capacity than the sixspeed DQ250; this new DQ200 uses just 1.7 litres (0.37 imp gal; 0.45 US gal) of transmission fluid.[6] In September 2010, VW launched a new sevenspeed DSG built to support up to 650 N·m (480 lb·ft), the DQ500. Its first use was in the Audi TTRS.[13] Audi longitudinal DSG https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directshift_gearbox 2/13 8/7/2015 Directshift gearbox Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In late 2008, an allnew sevenspeed longitudinal[7][14] S tronic[14] version of the DSG transaxle went into series production (Volkswagen Group internal code: DL501, parts code prefix: 0B5).[8] Initially, from early 2009, it is only used in certain Audi cars, and only with longitudinally mounted engines. Like the original sixspeed DSG, it features a concentric dual wet multiplate clutch.[14] However, this particular variant uses notably more plates — the larger outer clutch (for the oddnumbered gears) uses 10 plates, whereas the smaller inner clutch (driving evennumbered gears and reverse) uses 12 plates.[14] Another notable change over the original transverse DSGs is the lubrication system[15][16] — Audi now utilise two totally separate oil circuits.[14] One oil circuit, consisting of 7.5 litres (1.65 imp gal; 1.98 US gal), lubricates the hydraulic clutches and mechatronics with fully synthetic specialist automatic transmission fluid (ATF),[14] whilst the other oil circuit lubricates the gear trains and front and centre differentials with 4.3 litres (0.95 imp gal; 1.14 US gal) of conventional hypoid gear oil.[14] This dual circuit lubrication is aimed at increasing overall reliability, due to eliminating crosscontamination of debris and wear particles.[14] It has a torque handling limit of up to 600 N·m (440 lb·ft),[7] and engine power outputs of up to 330 kW (450 PS; 440 bhp).[7] It has a total mass, including all lubricants and the dualmass flywheel of 141.5 kg (312 lb).[7] This was initially available in their quattro allwheeldrive variants,[8] and is very similar to the new ZF Friedrichshafensupplied[17] Porsche DoppelKupplung (PDK).[18][19] List of DSG variants name speeds max. torque (N·m) type DQ200 7 250 dry DQ250 6 350 wet DQ380[20] 7 380 wet DQ500 7 550 wet DQ511 10 550 wet DL501 7 550 wet Operational introduction The internal combustion engine drives two clutch packs.[2][4][5] The outer clutch pack drives gears 1, 3, 5[2] [4] (and 7 when fitted), and reverse[2] — the outer clutch pack has a larger diameter compared to the inner clutch, and can therefore handle greater torque loadings. The inner clutch pack drives gears 2, 4, and 6.[2][4] Instead of a standard large dry singleplate clutch, each clutch pack for the sixspeed DSG is a collection of four small wet interleaved clutch plates (similar to a motorcycle wet multiplate clutch). Due to space constraints, the two clutch assemblies are concentric, and the shafts within the gearbox are hollow and also concentric.[5] Because the alternate clutch pack's gearsets can be preselected[2][4][5] (predictive shifts enabled via the 'unused' section of the gearbox), unpowered time while shifting is avoided[2][5] because the transmission of torque is simply switched from one clutchpack to the other.[2] This means that the DSG https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directshift_gearbox 3/13 8/7/2015 Directshift gearbox Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia takes only about 8 milliseconds to upshift.[3][4] In comparison, the sequential manual transmission (SMT) in the Ferrari F430 Scuderia takes 60 milliseconds to shift,[21] or 150 milliseconds in the Ferrari Enzo.[3] The quoted time for upshifts is the time the wheels are completely nonpowered. DSG controls The directshift gearbox uses a floormounted transmission shift lever, very similar to that of a conventional automatic transmission.[10] The lever is operated in a straight 'fore and aft' plane (without any 'dogleg' offset movements), and uses an additional button to help prevent an inadvertent selection of an inappropriate shift lever position. "P" P position of the floormounted gear shift lever means that the transmission is set in "Park". Both clutch packs are fully disengaged, all gearsets are disengaged, and a solid mechanical transmission 'lock' is applied to the crown wheel of the DSG's internal differential. This position must only be used when the motor vehicle is stationary. Furthermore, this is the position which must be set on the shift lever before the vehicle ignition key can be removed. "N" N position of the floormounted shift lever means that the transmission is in "neutral". Similar to P above, both clutch packs and all gearsets are fully disengaged; however, the parking lock is also disengaged. "D" mode Whilst the motor vehicle is stationary and in neutral (N), the driver can select D for "drive" (after first pressing the foot brake pedal). The transmission's reverse gear is selected on the first shaft K1,[3] and the outer clutch K2 engages at the start of the 'bite point'. At the same time, on the alternate gear shaft, the reverse gear clutch K1 is also selected[2][3] (preselected), as the gearbox doesn't know whether the driver wants to go forward or reverse.
