Abstract:
A double clutch transmission (DCT) provides eight forward speeds and one reverse speed while minimizing the number of gear trains used for changing speed and the whole length thereof. In particular, the DCT has a simple structure using four or five gear trains and four synchro devices and is capable of providing eight forward speeds and one reverse speed while reducing the entire weight thereof. In a conventional DCT, when a gear train is added to increase the number of speed stages, the whole length thereof is increased. The provided DCT can minimize the whole length and the weight thereof, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost, the number of parts, and the fuel efficiency.
