In 1992, Lepelletier proposed three degrees of freedom epicyclic gear mechanisms. [1] These are now called Lepelletier gear mechanisms . [ 2 ] The Lepelletier gearbox is constructed by connecting a planetary gear to a Ravigneaux gear .
It uses a Lepelletier gear mechanism, [2] an epicyclic/planetary gearset, which can provide more gear ratios with significantly fewer components. This means the 6HP 26 is actually lighter than its five-speed 5HP predecessors.
A conventional planetary gearset and a compound Ravigneaux gearset is combined in a Lepelletier gear mechanism, [1] to reduce both the size and weight. It was first realized with the 6HP from ZF Friedrichshafen. Like all transmissions realized with Lepelletier transmissions, the 6L also dispenses with the use of the direct gear ratio, making it ...
A conventional 5-pinion planetary gearset and a compound Ravigneaux gearset is combined in a Lepelletier gear mechanism, [5] to reduce both the size and weight. It was first realized in 2000 with the 6HP from ZF Friedrichshafen. Like all transmissions realized with Lepelletier transmissions, the AWTF-80 SC also dispenses with the use of the ...
The approach of the all new Lepelletier gear mechanism from the later 6HP-family, requiring only 8 main components for 6 gears, reflects the progress that this new paradigm represented. 1990: 5HP 18 · 1997: 5HP 19 · Ravigneaux Planetary Gearset Types
This planetary gear train consists of a sun gear (yellow), planet gears (blue) and carrier (green) inside a ring gear (red) An epicyclic gear train (also known as a planetary gearset) is a gear reduction assembly consisting of two gears mounted so that the center of one gear (the "planet") revolves around the center of the other (the "sun").
Beginning with the AW F8 transmission Aisin and Toyota derived a transverse engine variant [b] [2] by adapting this globally patented gearset concept to fit into the same space as the previous generation U6xx Lepelletier gear mechanism-based 6-speed transmissions to increase the overall ratio spread, reduce gear steps, and increase the torque ...
The 6R is a 6-speed automatic transmission for longitudinal engine placement in rear-wheel drive vehicles. It is based on the ZF 6HP26 transmission [1] and has been built under license by the Ford Motor Company at its Livonia Transmission plant in Livonia, Michigan.
