    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.

GENERAL MOTORS, INC., Defendant. CLASS ACTION COMPLAINT AND DEMAND FOR JURY TRIAL Plaintiffs Dennis Duffy, Richard Sullivan, Daniel Baptist, Dennis Speerly, Michael Plafker, John Iasiello, and Benjy Tompkins, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, hereby file suit against the Defendant listed above and allege the following: INTRODUCTION 1. Plaintiffs and class members purchased or leased new and used vehicles manufactured by General Motors (“GM”) between 2015 and 2018. Each of these vehicles is equipped with one of two models of eight-speed automatic transmissions, both manufactured by GM: the GM 8L90 or the 8L45.1 2. These transmissions have a common defect. Drivers attempting to accelerate or decelerate their cars feel a hesitation, followed by a significant shake, shudder, jerk, clunk, or “hard shift” when the vehicle’s automatic transmission changes gears. Said shudder, shake and 1 Vehicles equipped with one of these transmissions (the “Subject Vehicles”) include the 2015-2019 Chevrolet Silverado; the 2017-2019 Chevrolet Colorado; the 2015-2019 Chevrolet Corvette; the 2016-2019 Chevrolet Camaro; the 2015-2019 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV; the 2016-2019 Cadillac ATS, ATS-V, CTS, CT6, and CTS-V; the 2015-2019 GMC Sierra, Yukon, and Yukon XL, and Yukon Denali XL; and the 2017-2019 GMC Canyon.

  • Automobile Engineering
    A Course Material on Automobile Engineering By Mr. T.Manokaran ME,MBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR DEPARTMENT OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING SASURIE COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING VIJAYAMANGALAM – 638 056 Author Page At first I like to submit my sincere thanks to GOD, PARENTS and FRIENDS who have helped and encouraged me to prepare this entire course material for the subject of Automobile Engineering. Automobile Engineering is a vast field encompassing different types of vehicles used for transportation of people and materials. It is very difficult to cover all the aspects of automobile engineering in single notes, because vehicles are being refined and improved day by day. However an attempt is made in this course material to give the maximum possible details of fundamentals of the automobile vehicles. It is always challenging to decide whether historical notes should come before or after the description and interpretation of the state of the art. Arguing for the second alternative is the fact that readers should already have understood the motivations that drive a design decision. We begin this chapter with basis of automobile, and through by the transmissions and steering systems, going on later to describe wheels, tires and braking & suspension systems. This emphasis is solely due to the larger impact that suspensions and steering systems have on vehicle architecture and its consequent evolution; steering systems will be described together with suspensions because these two systems are indissoluble from the point of view of designers. Knowing is not enough, We must apply. Willing is not enough, We must do. ALL the BEST T.Manokaran ME,MBA Assistant Professor Department of Mech.Engg.

Kadlag a singular control to effect the speed change, thereby making Abstract— Multispeed right angle friction gear which works the operation of the drive extremely simple. Another on the principle of friction gear. This drives enable us to have a important feature of this drive is its compactness, low weight multi speed output at right angles by using a single output at and obviously its low cost. right angles by using a single control lever. The design of the drive is based on the principle of friction, hence slip is inevitable, but in many cases the exact speed ratio is not of prime importance it is the multiple speed that are available from the II. BACKGROUND & HISTORY drive that are to be considered. In this typical drive the power is transmitted from the input to the output at right angle at multiple speed and torque by virtue of two friction rollers and A. Friction Drive an intermediate sphere. The drive uses a singular control to effect the speed change, thereby making the operation of the drive extremely simple. Another important feature of this drive A Lambert automobile from 1906 with the friction drive is its compactness, low weight and obviously its low cost revealed. A friction Drive or friction engine is a type of transmission that, instead of a chain and sprockets, uses 2 wheels in the transmission to transfer power to the driving Index Terms— slip, friction, gear, lever, multispeed wheels.
