    České vysoké učení technické v Praze, Fakulta strojní Czech Technical University in Prague, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering Dr. Ing. Gabriela Achtenová Automatizace převodovky – minulost a budoucnost Gearbox automation – past and future 1 Summary The lecture summarizes known solutions of semi and fully automatised gearboxes from the beginning of their usage in motor vehicles (from approximately 1930‘ies of last century) till nowadays. From recent designs are involved typical representatives from passenger cars and trucks. In the overview we are focusing on typical members from the family of automatised gearboxes only, i.e. on the transmissions where the gearshift occurs with interruption of torque flow. The Direct Shift Gearbox (DSG) – also known as Dual Clutch Transmission − is not included in the description. The lecture ends with description of possible future evolution of automatised gearboxes. Two domains are described: • The adaptation of internal gearshift mechanism intended for automation. • Possible cover of the power gap due to the interruption of torque flow during gear shift. The author’s expectations and research work in this field are discussed. 2 Souhrn Přednáška shrnuje známá řešení částečně nebo plně automatizovaných převodovek od jejich prvního použití v motorových vozidlech (přibližně ve třicátých letech minulého století) po současnost. Ze současných převodovek jsou zahrnuty jak představitelé konstrukcí v osobních, tak nákladních vozidlech. V uvedeném přehledu se zabýváme zejména typickými členy této skupiny převodných ústrojí, tedy automatizovanými převodovkami, kde k zařazení rychlostních stupňů dochází při přerušení toku výkonu. Dvouspojkové převodovky nejsou zahrnuty. Přednáška je uzavřena okénkem do možného směřování dalšího vývoje automatizovaných převodovek. Popsány jsou dva hlavní směry: • Úprava vnitřního mechanismu řazení pro následnou automatizaci.

  • Opel Antara Gtc: Gran Turismo Crossover
    OPEL ANTARA GTC: GRAN TURISMO CROSSOVER Sporty concept of an off-road coupe New SUV interpretation of dynamic Opel design Rüsselsheim/Frankfurt. With its four-wheel drive Antara GTC concept vehicle (Gran Turismo Crossover), Opel demonstrates just how dynamic and athletic an SUV (Sport Utility Vehicle) can actually be. The study has its premiere at the International Motor Show in Frankfurt (IAA) from September 15-25, 2005. With the characteristic three-door design (length/width/height: 4530/1970/1640 mm), Opel shows a particularly sporty interpretation of an SUV and its dynamic design language in this special vehicle format. With the striking LED headlamps that run well into the fenders, and the brand's typical crease in the engine hood, the front of the four-seater accentuates Opel's new design line. Viewed from the side, attention is captured by the frameless windows that drop right down and contribute to the coupe-like silhouette. "The Antara GTC concept vehicle conveys ‘adventure’ – even when standing still. It leverages Opel's current design language and reinterprets it for the SUV genre," explains Bryan Nesbitt, Executive Director, GM Design Europe. "Contrary to traditional off-road concepts, the Antara GTC communicates that its true home is more on the road than on rough terrain." For Alain Visser, Executive Director for European Marketing at Adam Opel AG, the Antara GTC is a convincing ambassador of the brand: "Anyone who has been lucky enough to see the Antara GTC has felt instinctively: 'Here comes a strong Opel.' As a surprisingly sporty SUV concept, the study also symbolizes Opel's innovative strength." With a number of optical and technical details and typical Opel versatility in the interior, the study also sets out to satisfy demanding practical requirements.

  • World Premiere for New Antara and Corsavan Concept
    WORLD PREMIERE FOR NEW ANTARA AND CORSAVAN CONCEPT • New Corsa: Exciting, individual and dynamic • Vectra OPC: Now with 280 hp and modified chassis • New GT: Legendary sports car with modern design • Astra TwinTop: Coupé among cabrios brings breath of fresh air • Vivaro and Movano: New editions consolidate commercial vehicle success Paris. Opel presents two world premieres as well as numerous updated and enhanced models at the Paris Motor Show (September 30 – October 15, 2006). The new Antara makes its first public appearance at the Opel stand in Hall 5.2 of the Paris expo grounds. With the technologically sophisticated and dynamically designed four-wheel drive five-seater, Opel is again staking a claim as leader among volume manufacturers in the SUV and crossover segment. As one of the most important new models of the 2006 car year, the fourth Corsa generation is also on display in Paris parallel to its market launch on October 7. With its sporty, athletic contours, agile handling, roomy interior and feel-good ambience, the popular Opel is perfectly positioned to reach top sales figures again. While the coupé-like three-door and family-friendly five-door Corsa models debuted in London, the sporty CorsaVan concept study, which is based on the three-door Corsa, makes its public premiere in the French capital. The new Opel GT – legitimate heir to the legendary sports car – is contending for the title of public darling in Paris. With its sharply cut lines, rear-wheel drive and 260-hp turbo engine, the new model echoes the successful concept of the original 1970s GT.
