Vehicle transmission
View Patent ↗A vehicle transmission includes an input shaft and an input side fifth speed gear that is relatively rotatably mounted on the input shaft. Axial one end face of the fifth speed gear is so disposed as to neighbor a stepped face between a large and reduced diameter portions in the input shaft. At a root portion continued to the stepped face in an outer peripheral surface of the input shaft, an escapement is formed so as to be recessed radially outwardly. A chamfered portion is formed in an angled portion at one end on the stepped face side in the inner peripheral surface of the fifth speed gear. The axial distance (b) from one end of the fifth speed gear to a terminating end of the chamfered portion is chosen to be greater than the axial distance (a) from the stepped face to the terminating end of the escapement.
1. A vehicle transmission which comprises:
a rotary shaft, the rotary shaft also having a large diameter portion and a reduced diameter portion; and
a rotary gear relatively rotatably mounted on the rotary shaft, the rotary gear having an axial end face disposed to neighbor a stepped face in the rotary shaft, which lies between the large diameter portion and the reduced diameter portion so as to face in an axial direction, in which:
an escapement is formed at a root portion continued to the stepped face in an outer peripheral surface of the rotary shaft, which escapement is radially inwardly recessed;
a chamfered portion is formed in an angled portion at one end on the stepped face side in an inner peripheral surface of the rotary gear; and
the axial distance b from one end of the rotary gear to a terminating end of the chamfered portion is chosen to be greater than an axial distance a from the stepped face to a terminating end of the escapement.
2. The vehicle transmission as claimed in claim 1 , wherein an angle of inclination of the chamfered portion relative to a rotary axis of the rotary shaft is chosen to be within the range of 6.8 to 11.0°.
3. The vehicle transmission as claimed in claim 1 , which is a dog transmission, wherein an end face of the other end of the rotary gear opposite to such one end thereof is formed with a recess for engagement with a dog that is axially movably meshed with the rotary shaft.
4. The vehicle transmission as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a fixed gear formed integrally with the rotary shaft, wherein
the stepped face is defined by one end face of the fixed gear, which faces the rotary gear.
5. The vehicle transmission as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the large diameter portion and the reduced diameter portion, both in the rotary shaft, are formed integrally with the rotary shaft.
