Transmission Synchronizer
Item Name Code (INC) 36254
 |
A device used in manual automotive transmissions, designed to equalize the speed of the mating parts before they engage. Common types such as block type, disk and plate type, plain type or pin type use friction to synchronize the mating parts. the main function is to help in engaging gears by synchronizing the speeds of the gear and the shaft before the connection is made.
Additional Information for Transmission Synchronizer
Transmission synchronizers are components used in vehicular power transmission systems to facilitate smooth and efficient gear shifting. They are part of the supply class Vehicular Power Transmission Components, which falls under the supply group Vehicular Equipment Components.
Transmission synchronizers play a crucial role in ensuring that the gears engage smoothly and without any grinding or clashing. They work by equalizing the speed of the input and output shafts before the gears are engaged. This synchronization process allows for seamless gear shifting, reducing wear and tear on the transmission system and providing a more comfortable driving experience.
The synchronizer consists of several components, including friction rings, blocking rings, and shift sleeves. When the driver selects a different gear, the synchronizer uses these components to match the rotational speed of the input and output shafts. This allows the gears to engage smoothly, preventing any jolts or jerks during gear shifting.
In addition to facilitating gear shifting, transmission synchronizers also help to protect the transmission system from damage. By synchronizing the speeds of the rotating shafts, they prevent excessive stress and strain on the gears, shafts, and other transmission components.
Overall, transmission synchronizers are essential components in vehicular power transmission systems. They ensure smooth and efficient gear shifting, improve driving comfort, and help to prolong the lifespan of the transmission system.
