複式プラネタリギヤ機構5は、第1プラネタリギヤ機構6と第2プラネタリギヤ機構7とで構成されている。第1プラネタリギヤ機構6は、サンギヤSmと、リングギヤRmと、互いに噛合すると共に一方がサンギヤSmと噛合し他方がリングギヤRmに噛合する一対のピニオンPm,Pm´を自転及び公転自在に支持するキャリアCmとから成るダブルピニオン型のプラネタリギヤ機構で構成される。   The double planetary gear mechanism 5 includes a first planetary gear mechanism 6 and a second planetary gear mechanism 7. The first planetary gear mechanism 6 includes a sun gear Sm and a ring gear Rm, and a carrier Cm that supports a pair of pinions Pm and Pm ′ that mesh with each other and one meshes with the sun gear Sm and the other meshes with the ring gear Rm. It consists of a double pinion type planetary gear mechanism.

第2プラネタリギヤ機構は、サンギヤSrと、リングギヤRrと、サンギヤSrとリングギヤRrとに噛合するピニオンPrを自転及び公転自在に支持するキャリアCrとから成るシングルピニオン型のプラネタリギヤ機構で構成されている。   The second planetary gear mechanism is constituted by a single pinion type planetary gear mechanism including a sun gear Sr, a ring gear Rr, and a carrier Cr that supports the pinion Pr meshing with the sun gear Sr and the ring gear Rr so as to rotate and revolve.

減速機構4は、サンギヤSfと、リングギヤRfと、サンギヤSfとリングギヤRfとに噛合するピニオンPfを自転及び公転自在に支持するキャリアCfとから成るシングルピニオン型の第3プラネタリギヤ機構で構成されている。   The speed reduction mechanism 4 includes a single-pinion type third planetary gear mechanism including a sun gear Sf, a ring gear Rf, and a carrier Cf that supports the pinion Pf meshing with the sun gear Sf and the ring gear Rf so as to rotate and revolve. .

本実施形態では、リングギヤRfを入力軸2に連結される入力要素とし、サンギヤSfを変速機ケース1に固定される固定要素として、キャリアCfが出力要素になるようにしている。図2の上段に示す減速機構4の速度線図(サンギヤ、キャリア、リングギヤの3個の要素の回転速度を直線で表すことができる図)から明らかなように、入力軸2の回転が減速されてキャリアCfから出力される。   In the present embodiment, the ring gear Rf is an input element connected to the input shaft 2, and the sun gear Sf is a fixed element fixed to the transmission case 1, so that the carrier Cf is an output element. As is apparent from the speed diagram of the speed reduction mechanism 4 shown in the upper part of FIG. 2 (the speed at which the three elements of the sun gear, the carrier, and the ring gear can be represented by straight lines), the rotation of the input shaft 2 is decelerated. And output from the carrier Cf.

尚、速度線図において、下の横線と上の横線は夫々回転速度が「0」と「1」(入力軸2と同じ回転速度)であることを示している。また、各縦線は左側から順にサンギヤSf、キャリアCf、リングギヤRfを表しており、これらの間隔は減速機構4のギヤ比i(リングギヤの歯数/サンギヤの歯数)に応じて定められている。即ち、サンギヤSfとキャリアCf間の間隔とキャリアCfとリングギヤRf間の間隔との比がi:1になるように設定されている。そして、減速機構4の出力速度(キャリアCfの回転速度)N1はi/(i+1)になる。   In the velocity diagram, the lower horizontal line and the upper horizontal line indicate that the rotational speeds are “0” and “1” (the same rotational speed as the input shaft 2), respectively. Further, each vertical line represents the sun gear Sf, the carrier Cf, and the ring gear Rf in order from the left side, and the distance between them is determined according to the gear ratio i of the speed reduction mechanism 4 (the number of teeth of the ring gear / the number of teeth of the sun gear). Yes. That is, the ratio between the distance between the sun gear Sf and the carrier Cf and the distance between the carrier Cf and the ring gear Rf is set to i: 1. The output speed (rotational speed of the carrier Cf) N1 of the speed reduction mechanism 4 is i / (i + 1).

図2の下段に示す複式プラネタリギヤ機構5の速度線図を参照して、第1プラネタリギヤ機構6のサンギヤSm、キャリアCm及びリングギヤRmから成る3個の要素を、速度線図におけるギヤ比に対応する間隔での並び順に左側から夫々第1要素、第2要素及び第3要素とすると、第1要素はサンギヤSm、第2要素はリングギヤRm、第3要素はキャリアCmになる。尚、サンギヤSmとキャリアCm間の間隔とリングギヤRmとキャリアCm間の間隔との比は、第1プラネタリギヤ機構6のギヤ比をjとして、j:1に設定される。   Referring to the velocity diagram of the double planetary gear mechanism 5 shown in the lower part of FIG. 2, the three elements including the sun gear Sm, the carrier Cm, and the ring gear Rm of the first planetary gear mechanism 6 correspond to the gear ratio in the velocity diagram. If the first element, the second element, and the third element are arranged from the left side in the order in which they are arranged at intervals, the first element is the sun gear Sm, the second element is the ring gear Rm, and the third element is the carrier Cm. The ratio between the distance between the sun gear Sm and the carrier Cm and the distance between the ring gear Rm and the carrier Cm is set to j: 1 where j is the gear ratio of the first planetary gear mechanism 6.

また、上記複式プラネタリギヤ機構5の速度線図を参照して、第2プラネタリギヤ機構7のサンギヤSr、キャリアCr及びリングギヤRrから成る3個の要素を、速度線図におけるギヤ比に対応する間隔での並び順に左側から夫々第4要素、第5要素及び第6要素とすると、第4要素はリングギヤRr、第5要素はキャリアCr、第6要素はサンギヤSrになる。尚、サンギヤSr(縦線Y4)とキャリアCr(縦線Y2)間の間隔とキャリアCr(縦線Y2)とリングギヤRr(縦線Y1)間の間隔との比は、第2プラネタリギヤ機構7のギヤ比をkとして、k:1に設定される。   Further, referring to the speed diagram of the compound planetary gear mechanism 5, the three elements including the sun gear Sr, the carrier Cr and the ring gear Rr of the second planetary gear mechanism 7 are arranged at intervals corresponding to the gear ratio in the speed diagram. If the fourth element, the fifth element, and the sixth element are respectively arranged from the left side in the arrangement order, the fourth element is the ring gear Rr, the fifth element is the carrier Cr, and the sixth element is the sun gear Sr. The ratio between the distance between the sun gear Sr (vertical line Y4) and the carrier Cr (vertical line Y2) and the distance between the carrier Cr (vertical line Y2) and the ring gear Rr (vertical line Y1) is the same as that of the second planetary gear mechanism 7. The gear ratio is set to k: 1 with k being the gear ratio.

ここで、本実施形態では、第1プラネタリギヤ機構6のサンギヤSm(第1要素)と第2プラネタリギヤ機構7のリングギヤRr(第4要素)とを連結して連結体Sm−Rrを構成し、第2プラネタリギヤ機構7のキャリアCr(第5要素)を出力ギヤ3に連結している。   Here, in the present embodiment, the sun gear Sm (first element) of the first planetary gear mechanism 6 and the ring gear Rr (fourth element) of the second planetary gear mechanism 7 are coupled to form a coupled body Sm-Rr. The carrier Cr (fifth element) of the two planetary gear mechanism 7 is coupled to the output gear 3.

The second clutch CD2 is configured to be switchable to any one of the states in which the fixing of the second clutch CD2 to the transmission case 1 is released.

上記の如く第1プラネタリギヤ機構6のサンギヤSmと第2プラネタリギヤ機構7のリングギヤRrとを連結して連結体Sm−Rrを構成することにより、図2の下段に示す複式プラネタリギヤ機構5の速度線図において、第1プラネタリギヤ機構6のサンギヤSmは、第2プラネタリギヤ機構7のリングギヤRrと同一の縦線Y1上に常時位置する。   As described above, the sun gear Sm of the first planetary gear mechanism 6 and the ring gear Rr of the second planetary gear mechanism 7 are connected to form the coupling body Sm-Rr, whereby the velocity diagram of the double planetary gear mechanism 5 shown in the lower part of FIG. The sun gear Sm of the first planetary gear mechanism 6 is always located on the same vertical line Y1 as the ring gear Rr of the second planetary gear mechanism 7.

一方、第1プラネタリギヤ機構6のリングギヤRmとキャリアCmの速度線図上の位置は、第3クラッチCaを係合させた場合と第4クラッチCbを係合させた場合とで異なる。   On the other hand, the positions on the velocity diagram of the ring gear Rm and the carrier Cm of the first planetary gear mechanism 6 differ between when the third clutch Ca is engaged and when the fourth clutch Cb is engaged.

これを詳述するに、第3クラッチCaの係合時には、第1プラネタリギヤ機構6のリングギヤRmが第2プラネタリギヤ機構7のサンギヤSrと同一の縦線Y4上に位置し、第1プラネタリギヤ機構6のキャリアCmは、縦線Y1と縦線Y4間の間隔の1/(j−1)だけ縦線Y4から右側に離れた縦線Y5上に位置する。   More specifically, when the third clutch Ca is engaged, the ring gear Rm of the first planetary gear mechanism 6 is positioned on the same vertical line Y4 as the sun gear Sr of the second planetary gear mechanism 7, and the first planetary gear mechanism 6 The carrier Cm is positioned on the vertical line Y5 that is separated from the vertical line Y4 to the right side by 1 / (j−1) of the interval between the vertical line Y1 and the vertical line Y4.

また、第4クラッチCbの係合時には、第1プラネタリギヤ機構6のキャリアCmが縦線Y4上に位置し、第1プラネタリギヤ機構6のリングギヤRmは、縦線Y1と縦線Y4間の間隔の1/jだけ縦線Y4から左側に離れた縦線Y3上に位置する。   In addition, when the fourth clutch Cb is engaged, the carrier Cm of the first planetary gear mechanism 6 is positioned on the vertical line Y4, and the ring gear Rm of the first planetary gear mechanism 6 has an interval of 1 between the vertical line Y1 and the vertical line Y4. / J is located on the vertical line Y3 that is far left from the vertical line Y4.

第1クラッチCD1と第4クラッチCbと第2クラッチCD2とを係合させると共に、第1シンクロメッシュ機構D1が第1クラッチCD1と連結体Sm−Rrとを連結する状態に切換えられ、及び第2シンクロメッシュ機構D2が第2クラッチCD2を変速機ケース1に固定する状態に切換えられると、縦線Y3での回転速度が「0」、縦線Y1での回転速度が減速機構4の出力速度N1になり、出力ギヤ3に連結される第2プラネタリギヤ機構7のキャリアCrが位置する縦線Y2での回転速度は「1st」になって1速段が確立される。   The first clutch CD1, the fourth clutch Cb, and the second clutch CD2 are engaged, and the first synchromesh mechanism D1 is switched to a state in which the first clutch CD1 and the connecting body Sm-Rr are connected. When the synchromesh mechanism D2 is switched to a state in which the second clutch CD2 is fixed to the transmission case 1, the rotational speed at the vertical line Y3 is "0", and the rotational speed at the vertical line Y1 is the output speed N1 of the speed reduction mechanism 4. Thus, the rotational speed of the second planetary gear mechanism 7 connected to the output gear 3 at the vertical line Y2 where the carrier Cr is located is “1st”, and the first gear is established.

第1クラッチCD1と第3クラッチCaと第2クラッチCD2とを係合させると共に、第1シンクロメッシュ機構D1が第1クラッチCD1と連結体Sm−Rrとを連結する状態に切換られえ、及び第2シンクロメッシュ機構D2が第2クラッチCD2を変速機ケース1に固定する状態に切換えられると、縦線Y4での回転速度が「0」、縦線Y1での回転速度が減速機構4の出力速度N1になり、出力ギヤ3に連結される第2プラネタリギヤ機構7のキャリアCrが位置する縦線Y2での回転速度は「2nd」になって2速段が確立される。   The first clutch CD1, the third clutch Ca, and the second clutch CD2 can be engaged, and the first synchromesh mechanism D1 can be switched to a state in which the first clutch CD1 and the connecting body Sm-Rr are connected. When the 2 synchromesh mechanism D2 is switched to a state in which the second clutch CD2 is fixed to the transmission case 1, the rotational speed at the vertical line Y4 is “0”, and the rotational speed at the vertical line Y1 is the output speed of the speed reduction mechanism 4 The rotational speed of the second planetary gear mechanism 7 connected to the output gear 3 at the vertical line Y2 where the carrier Cr is located is “2nd”, and the second speed stage is established.

第1クラッチCD1と第3クラッチCaと第4クラッチCbとを係合させると共に、第1シンクロメッシュ機構D1が第1クラッチCD1と連結体Sm−Rrとを連結する状態に切換えられ、及び第2シンクロメッシュ機構D2が第2クラッチCD2を入力軸2及び変速機ケース1の何れにも非連結とする状態に切換えられると、第1と第2の2つのプラネタリギヤ機構6,7の各要素が相対回転不能なロック状態となる。そして、第1と第2の2つのプラネタリギヤ機構6,7の各要素の回転速度が減速機構4の出力速度N1となり、縦線Y2での回転速度もN1である「3rd」になって3速段が確立される。   The first clutch CD1, the third clutch Ca, and the fourth clutch Cb are engaged, and the first synchromesh mechanism D1 is switched to a state in which the first clutch CD1 and the connecting body Sm-Rr are connected. When the synchromesh mechanism D2 is switched to a state in which the second clutch CD2 is disconnected from both the input shaft 2 and the transmission case 1, the elements of the first and second planetary gear mechanisms 6 and 7 are relative to each other. It becomes a locked state that cannot be rotated. Then, the rotational speed of each element of the first and second planetary gear mechanisms 6 and 7 becomes the output speed N1 of the speed reduction mechanism 4, and the rotational speed on the vertical line Y2 becomes "3rd", which is N1, and the third speed. A stage is established.

The mechanism D2 is pre-shifted to a state in which the second clutch CD2 is fixed to the transmission case 1 to enter a standby state. Conversely, when the TCU predicts an upshift to the fourth gear, the second synchromesh mechanism D2 is preshifted to a state in which the input shaft 2 and the second clutch CD2 are connected to enter a standby state.

第1クラッチCD1と第3クラッチCaと第2クラッチCD2とを係合させると共に、第1シンクロメッシュ機構D1が第1クラッチCD1と連結体Sm−Rrとを連結する状態に切換えられ、及び第2シンクロメッシュ機構D2が入力軸2と第2クラッチCD2とを連結する状態に切換えられると、縦線Y4での回転速度が「1」、縦線Y1での回転速度が減速機構4の出力速度N1になり、出力ギヤ3に連結される第2プラネタリギヤ機構7のキャリアCrが位置する縦線Y2での回転速度は「4th」になって4速段が確立される。   The first clutch CD1, the third clutch Ca, and the second clutch CD2 are engaged, and the first synchromesh mechanism D1 is switched to a state in which the first clutch CD1 and the connecting body Sm-Rr are connected. When the synchromesh mechanism D2 is switched to a state in which the input shaft 2 and the second clutch CD2 are connected, the rotational speed at the vertical line Y4 is "1", and the rotational speed at the vertical line Y1 is the output speed N1 of the speed reduction mechanism 4. Thus, the rotational speed of the second planetary gear mechanism 7 connected to the output gear 3 at the vertical line Y2 where the carrier Cr is located is “4th”, and the fourth speed stage is established.

第1クラッチCD1と第4クラッチCbと第2クラッチCD2とを係合させると共に、第1シンクロメッシュ機構D1が第1クラッチCD1と連結体Sm−Rrとを連結する状態に切換えられ、及び第2シンクロメッシュ機構D2が入力軸2と第2クラッチCD2とを連結する状態に切換えられると、縦線Y3での回転速度が「1」、縦線Y1での回転速度が減速機構4の出力速度N1になり、出力ギヤ3に連結される第2プラネタリギヤ機構7のキャリアCrが位置する縦線Y2での回転速度は「5th」になって5速段が確立される。   The first clutch CD1, the fourth clutch Cb, and the second clutch CD2 are engaged, and the first synchromesh mechanism D1 is switched to a state in which the first clutch CD1 and the connecting body Sm-Rr are connected.

When the second synchromesh mechanism D2 is switched to a state in which the input shaft 2 and the second clutch CD2 are connected, the first and second planetary gears are switched. Each element of the mechanisms 6 and 7 is in a locked state where relative rotation is impossible. The rotational speed of each element of the first and second planetary gear mechanisms 6 and 7 is “1”, which is the same rotational speed as the input shaft 2, and the rotational speed at the vertical line Y2 is also “1”. "6th" is reached and the sixth gear is established.

尚、6速段においては、図外のトランスミッション・コントロール・ユニット(TCU)が、車速等の車両情報に基づいて、5速段へのダウンシフトを予測している場合には、第1シンクロメッシュ機構D1を第1クラッチCD1と連結体Sm−Rrとを連結する状態にプリシフトして待機状態とする。逆に、TCUが7速段へのアップシフトを予測している場合には、第1シンクロメッシュ機構D1を第1クラッチCD1と第1プラネタリギヤ機構6のキャリアCm(第3要素)とを連結する状態にプリシフトして待機状態とする。   At the sixth gear, the transmission control unit (TCU) (not shown) predicts a downshift to the fifth gear based on vehicle information such as the vehicle speed. The mechanism D1 is pre-shifted to a state in which the first clutch CD1 and the connecting body Sm-Rr are connected to enter a standby state.

R) ”.

以上、本実施形態によれば、第1実施形態と同様に、4個の摩擦係合機構CD1,CD2,Ca,Cbのうち各変速段において3個の摩擦係合機構が係合するため、各変速段で解放している摩擦係合機構の数は1個になる。噛合機構CD1,CD2は解放されても引き摺りによるフリクションロスは発生しない。従って、上記従来例のものに比し、解放している摩擦係合機構によるフリクションロスを低減でき、変速機の効率が向上する。   As described above, according to the present embodiment, as in the first embodiment, among the four friction engagement mechanisms CD1, CD2, Ca, and Cb, three friction engagement mechanisms are engaged at each shift stage. The number of frictional engagement mechanisms released at each shift stage is one. Even if the meshing mechanisms CD1 and CD2 are released, friction loss due to drag does not occur. Therefore, the friction loss due to the released friction engagement mechanism can be reduced as compared with the conventional example, and the transmission efficiency is improved.

また、本実施形態では、第1クラッチCD1を係合させて、モータMでエンジンを始動させることができる。また、上記のようにモータMでエンジンを始動する場合に、第1シンクロメッシュ機構D1を解放しておくことで、モータMの駆動力が第1及び第2プラネタリギヤ機構6,7に伝達されず、エンジン始動時のモータMの負荷を低減することができる。   In the present embodiment, the engine can be started by the motor M by engaging the first clutch CD1. Further, when the engine is started by the motor M as described above, the driving force of the motor M is not transmitted to the first and second planetary gear mechanisms 6 and 7 by releasing the first synchromesh mechanism D1. The load on the motor M when starting the engine can be reduced.

また、第1シンクロメッシュ機構D1を減速ギヤ列G1を介して第1クラッチCD1と連結体Sm−Rrとを連結する状態とする6速段以外の各変速段では、モータMでエンジンの駆動力をアシストするアシスト走行や、モータMの駆動力のみで走行するEV走行が可能である。更に、上記アシスト走行中又はEV走行中に車両が減速状態にあるときには、モータMで発電し図外の二次電池に充電する回生を行うことができる。   Further, at each speed stage other than the sixth speed stage in which the first synchromesh mechanism D1 is connected to the first clutch CD1 and the coupling body Sm-Rr via the reduction gear train G1, the motor M is used to drive the engine. Assist traveling that assists the vehicle or EV traveling that travels only by the driving force of the motor M is possible. Furthermore, when the vehicle is in a decelerating state during the assist traveling or EV traveling, regeneration can be performed in which the motor M generates power and charges a secondary battery (not shown).

尚、本実施形態では、ハイブリット車両用の自動変速機について説明したが、モータMを省略しても、同様に本発明の効果を得ることができる。   In this embodiment, the automatic transmission for a hybrid vehicle has been described. However, even if the motor M is omitted, the effects of the present invention can be obtained in the same manner.
