Аналіз конструктивних особливостей різних типів коробок перемикання передач автомобілів

Abstract

One of the important components of the car design is the gearbox, which is part of the transmission. It is the gearbox that is responsible for changing the direction of the car and its speed. This affects traction and dynamic properties in general. The purpose of this article is to analyze the design features of various types of car gearboxes. The work analyzes the design features of various types of car gearboxes. The purpose of the gearbox, the effect on the traction-speed properties, which are a set of properties that determine the possible speed ranges and the maximum intensity of acceleration when the car is moving in the traction mode in various operating conditions, are given, as well as the main requirements that it should provide. The peculiarities of the construction of mechanical gearboxes, their structure, the principle of operation and the possibility of placement in a car are considered. The structure and main elements of the hydromechanical transmission (HMT) design are presented. It consists of three main parts: a torque converter, a manual gearbox and a control system. The design features of the gearbox with V-belt and toroid variators are considered. The principle of operation of variators, which ensures a stepless change of the gear ratio within the established limits, is presented. The design of the gearbox with a double clutch is considered, which ensures uninterrupted transmission of the power flow to the drive wheels. The gearbox is controlled by an electronic control unit, which receives information from sensors located in the box and is connected by a high-speed bus to the engine's electronic control unit. The main advantages and disadvantages of each type of considered gearboxes are highlighted. The mechanical gearbox has proven itself as a unit that is simple in design and reliable in operation. The prospects for the development of the gearbox are the development of new electronic control systems, the use of modern materials with high performance indicators and the use of high-performance methods of mechanical processing.
