Abstract
Abstract A power train for a power shift transmission, wherein a first input shaft and a first output on the same axis engaged and disengaged through a forward driving first speed clutch and a second input shaft and a second output shaft on the same axis engaged and disengaged through a forward driving second speed clutch are disposed in parallel with a driving shaft on an engine side; a driving shaft is interconnected through transmission gears to the second input shaft and at the same time the second output shaft are interconnected to the driven shaft side such as an axle etc., both the input shafts are interconnected through a forward driving first speed first reduction gear set, and both the output shafts are interconnected through a forward driving first speed second reduction gear set.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
312 words
A power train for a power shift transmission, comprising: a hollow first input shaft coaxially and rotatably disposed on a first output shaft on a first axis therewith, said first input shaft and said first output shaft being selectively engaged and disengaged with each other through a forward driving first speed clutch; a second input shaft and a hollow second output shaft coaxially and rotatably disposed on said second input shaft on a second axis therewith, said second input shaft and said second output shaft being selectively engaged and disengaged with each other through a forward driving second speed clutch; a driving shaft disposed in parallel relation with said first input shaft, said first output shaft, said second input shaft and said second output shaft, said driving shaft being interconnected through transmission gears to said second input shaft; a driven shaft directly interconnected through transmission gears with said second output shaft; a forward driving first speed first reduction gear set interconnecting said first input shaft with said second input shaft; and a forward driving first speed second reduction gear set interconnecting said first output shaft with said second output shaft; whereby, when said forward driving first speed clutch is engaged so as to engage said first input shaft with said first output shift, driving power may be transmitted from said driving shaft to said driven shaft via said second input shaft interconnected with said driving shaft, said forward driving first speed first reduction gear set interconnecting said first input shaft with said second input shaft, and said forward driving first speed second reduction gear set interconnecting said first output shaft with said second output shaft, such that a first reduction in speed is obtained between said first input shaft and said second input shaft, and a second reduction in speed is obtained between said first output shaft and said second output shaft.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
312 words
A power train for a power shift transmission, comprising: a hollow first input shaft coaxially and rotatably disposed on a first output shaft on a first axis therewith, said first input shaft and said first output shaft being selectively engaged and disengaged with each other through a forward driving first speed clutch; a second input shaft and a hollow second output shaft coaxially and rotatably disposed on said second input shaft on a second axis therewith, said second input shaft and said second output shaft being selectively engaged and disengaged with each other through a forward driving second speed clutch; a driving shaft disposed in parallel relation with said first input shaft, said first output shaft, said second input shaft and said second output shaft, said driving shaft being interconnected through transmission gears to said second input shaft; a driven shaft directly interconnected through transmission gears with said second output shaft; a forward driving first speed first reduction gear set interconnecting said first input shaft with said second input shaft; and a forward driving first speed second reduction gear set interconnecting said first output shaft with said second output shaft; whereby, when said forward driving first speed clutch is engaged so as to engage said first input shaft with said first output shift, driving power may be transmitted from said driving shaft to said driven shaft via said second input shaft interconnected with said driving shaft, said forward driving first speed first reduction gear set interconnecting said first input shaft with said second input shaft, and said forward driving first speed second reduction gear set interconnecting said first output shaft with said second output shaft, such that a first reduction in speed is obtained between said first input shaft and said second input shaft, and a second reduction in speed is obtained between said first output shaft and said second output shaft.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
101 words
A power train for a power shift transmission as set forth in claim 1, further comprising a hollow third input shaft coaxially and rotatably disposed on a third output shaft on a third axis therewith, said third input shaft and said third output shaft being selectively engaged and disengaged with each other through a forward driving third speed clutch and disposed in parallel with said driving shaft, said third input shaft being interconnected through a third speed reduction gear set to said second input shaft and said third output shaft being interconnected through a final gear set to said driven shaft.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
82 words
A power train for a power shift transmission as set forth in claim 2, in which a fourth input shaft is disposed in parallel with the driving shaft, interconnected through a fourth speed reduction gear set to the second input shaft, and at the same time interconnected through a forward driving fourth speed clutch, the third output shaft, and the final gear set to the driven shaft in such a manner as to be freely engaged and disengaged in driving connection therewith.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
80 words
A power train for a power shift transmission as set forth in any one of claims 1 to 3, in which a rearward driving input shaft is coaxially disposed on said first axis with the first output shaft, interconnected through a rearward driving gear set to the driving shaft, and at the same time interconnected through a rearward driving clutch to the first output shaft in such a manner as to be freely engaged and disengaged in driving connection therewith.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
33 words
A power train for a power shift transmission as set forth in claim 4, wherein said forward driving first speed clutch and said rearward driving clutch are formed with a common outer member.
