Syncronization
Triple cone synchronization is used for reverse, 1st, 2nd and 3rd gear. The use of three friction cones has resulted in a considerable reduction in synchronizing forces. This reduces shifting forces when engaging gears. The first friction cone comprises the friction cone of the clutch hub of the loose gear wheel (2) and the inner cone of the inner ring (4). The second friction cone comprises the outer cone of the inner ring (4) and the inner cone of the intermediate ring (3). The third friction cone comprises the outer cone of the intermediate ring (3) and the inner cone of the synchronizer ring (1). Single cone synchronization is used for 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th gear. The cones from the clutch hub (2) and the cones of the synchronizer rings (1) form the friction cone.
