What is the function of a car transmission?
1 Answers
The functions of a car transmission are: 1. To change the transmission ratio, expanding the range of torque and rotational speed variations of the driving wheels to adapt to frequently changing driving conditions, while allowing the engine to operate under favorable conditions (higher speed with lower fuel consumption); 2. To enable the car to reverse while maintaining the same engine rotation direction; 3. To interrupt power transmission using neutral gear, allowing the engine to start, idle, and facilitating gear shifting or power output. The car transmission is a mechanical or hydraulic device for mechanical power conversion and is one of the main components of the vehicle's drivetrain. The transmission consists of a gear transmission mechanism and a control mechanism, and a power take-off can be added when necessary.
