OPERATION
The driving clutches (Fig. 49) produce a non-posi-
tive locking connection between two elements of a
planetary gear set or between one element from each
of two planetary gear sets in order to transmit the
drive torque.
If the piston (20) on multi-plate clutch K1 (1) is
subjected to oil pressure, it presses the internal and
external discs of the disc set together. The sun gear
(17) is locked with the planetary carrier (15) via the
externally toothed disc carrier (19) and the internally
toothed disc carrier (18). The front planetary gear set
is thus locked and turns as a closed unit.
If the multi-plate clutch K2 (2) is actuated via the
piston (14), the piston compresses the disc set. The
annulus gear (16) of the front planetary gear set is
locked with the annulus gear (11) of the center plan-
etary gear set via the externally toothed disc carrier
(13) and the center planetary carrier (10) on which
the internally toothed discs are seated. Annulus gear
(16) and annulus gear (11) turn at the same speed as
the input shaft (21)
If the multi-plate clutch K3 (5) is actuated via the
piston (7), the piston compresses the disc set. The
sun gear (12) of the center planetary gear set is
locked with the sun gear (9) of the rear planetary
gear set via the externally toothed disc carrier (6)
and the internally toothed disc carrier (8). Sun gear
(12) and sun gear (9) turn at the same speed.
