CONSTRUCTION AND FUNCTION 7A1-41
1st Gear in D, 3, 2 Position
The driving force from the input shaft is transmitted to the rear sun gear and reverse & high clutch drum. As
the low clutch is engaged, the movement of the rear internal gear is restricted. Since the low one-way clutch
acts at the same time, counterclockwise rotations of the rear internal gear are locked. As a result, the driving
force transmitted to the rear sun gear rotates the rear planetary carrier clockwise, then the rotation speed is
decreased and multiple force is transmitted to the output shaft.
When decelerating, the rotating speed of the rear planetary carrier (rear pinion gear) is higher than that of the
rear sun gear and the rear internal gear attempts to rotate clockwise. At this time, the low one-way clutch
does not act but races, and therefore the rear internal gear rotates clockwise. The reverse torque from the
driving shaft is not transmitted to the engine side and the engine brake does not act.
