Multistage transmission device
A multistage transmission device includes a plurality of driving gears provided in a countershaft, a plurality of driven gears meshing with the driving gears, respectively, dog rings that switch mechanical connection or disconnection between the drive shaft and each of the driven gears, and one-way clutches arranged between the countershaft and the driving gears. The one-way clutches transmit rotation of the countershaft to the driving gears when the rotation of the countershaft is faster than the rotation of the driving gears.
1. A multistage transmission device comprising:
a countershaft configured to receive a drive force;
a drive shaft configured to output the drive force received from the countershaft;
a plurality of driving gears provided on the countershaft;
a plurality of countershaft-side transmission members configured to switch at least one of mechanical connection and disconnection between the countershaft and each of the driving gears;
a plurality of driven gears respectively meshing with the plurality of driving gears, the driven gears being configured to be rotatable independent of the drive shaft;
a plurality of drive shaft-side transmission members configured to switch mechanical connection or disconnection between the drive shaft and the driven gears;
a plurality of one-way clutches arranged between the countershaft and all of the driving gears to transmit rotation of the countershaft to the driving gear when the rotation of the countershaft is faster than rotation of the driving gear; and
a plurality of one-way clutches arranged between the countershaft and all of the countershaft-side transmission members to transmit rotation of the countershaft-side transmission members to the countershaft when the rotation of the countershaft-side transmission members are faster than the rotation of the countershaft.
2. The multistage transmission device according to claim 1 , wherein, in order to perform a shift-up operation from a gearshift stage having a larger gear reduction ratio to a gearshift stage having a smaller gear reduction ratio, at least one of the drive shaft-side transmission members temporarily has a state that the drive shaft is connected to a driven gear having a smaller gear reduction ration while the drive shaft is connected to a driven gear having a larger gear reduction ratio.
