Yeah, same happen to me. I watch so many videos and none was detailed enough to really understand how everything works. Was only after I finish the animation that I trully understood. Is nice to see that i helped. Cheers.
I don't understand how the sun gear turns faster on P2 for gear 6 than it does for gear 5. Are you sure you got this right? Or should the configuration for gears 5 and 6 be switched?
Thanks for this explanation. I do think that it's not the planetary gearing that is difficult to understand but how hydraulic pressure is used to control the clutches and how this interacts with the planetary gear system. The structure of the clutch packs is also complex and worthy of a model.
This is one of the best most simplified animations on RUclips!! You deserve more views! Still very very challenging to understand as you have to imagine multiple things working all together in a 3D multi-layed synergy. Its fascinating.
Brillian explanation for the inner working of a transmition,what a tutorial, master teacher, many people who repair a transmition are barely part changers, only a few know how is working and how the ratios are obtained.
Best animation and illustration seen till now for explaining automatic transmission. You know, it will be even better if you show the same animation while taking a quarter section to show the ring gear movement before showing each section alone. It will make it more understandable. Appreciate your great effort in this video. 👏
Thank you, very well presented. Ever since I had to have my auto transmission rebuilt I've been trying to understand how it works and this has been very useful. Manual transmissions are quite easy for a layman like me to understand but autos are more complex to get my head around.
Thanks for this. You were much more clear than that other automatic transmission video that has over a million views. I'll need to watch it again a few times. I also have a few webpages open that explain the math of planetary gears.
+Soylant I am happy you find it helpful. I agree that there are many videos explaining how automatic transmission works, but they all skip the part on how all those gears actually create all those ratios (power-flow). I didn't go about the math of planetary gears because I didn't want to be too confusing, when already kinda is. Good luck
best combination of visuals and explanation by far. going to rewatch a few videos showing a more realistic transmission now with a much better understanding and get the best of all worlds. cheers mate
***** i read an article at HowStuffWorks. Yes, there are electrical sensors and it's common now. Before they exist, they have a mechanical air-pressure detecting system to detect if the engine works so hard, and detects which clutch gear is hold. If the certain pressure is reached, a valve opens automatically to pump air to make the clutch work, just like how you manually use brakes. Wow I learnt so much starting from this video!
What kind of genius can come up with all of this? The Buick Roadmaster was the first ever car to have an automatic transmission right? That was in the '40s, really impressive.
This explanation is similar to how Lesics also known as Learn Engineering discovered it. Also this is not the number of planet gears per carrier in a real transmission, it actually uses 3 planet gears instead of 4 per carrier in a real transmission.
I rebuilt my first, a Ford 3 speed, in high school. Believe it or not, even the new ones aren't that difficult to build. It's a matter of putting it all back together in the same order as it went in with all parts inspected and troublesome or worn ones replaced, and making sure your clearances are set correctly.Troubleshooting one is more difficult because it takes a greater understanding. This video was a random recommendation and I feel the author did a great job showing the Allison 1000. Take in mind, there are many, many different automatics out there with differing parts and methods.
I don't understand how the sun gear turns faster on P2 for gear 6 than it does for gear 5. Are you sure you got this right? Or should the configuration for gears 5 and 6 be switched?
I must agree with Soylant - your explanation and animation present a genuine learning opportunity. Brownie points earned for not claiming that this is an 'easy to understand' gearbox. However, you did make the 'general concept' easy to understand, whilst at the same time providing the detail, that can be repeat watched. In effect, you managed to kill two birds with one stone. I could watch this one with my son (the benchmark)... whereas the 'learn engineering' vid was a complete fail, as witnessed by the comments (mine included). I think I'll go back and edit my post to add a link to this vid and Thomas Schwenke 's vid (describing a simpler setup).
@Mr Sunshines By that logic, this transmission would be called a gear. It isnt a gear. it's a system of gears working together, as is the hydraulic control - a system of valves working together. if you think it is simple, search up a "valve body".
@@interlinkknight ok I am doing a latex PDF calculating all the ratio ! I was assuming that sun Gear has a radius of r, planetary Gears have a radius of r/2, and of ce the ring Gear a radius of 2r, am I right ?
@@interlinkknight i am curious about the ratio of the various radius (Sun Gear, planetary Gear set, ring Gear) !in order to do the math ! PS if you are not aware, i will deducte from the ratio of the first Gear ! Thanks you again for your video
The gear ratios for my model are: 1st: 3.20 2nd: 1.86 3rd: 1.43 4th: 1 5th: 0.70 6th: 0.60 R: 4.41 There are websites that calculate ratios of gear sets. Just add the ratio of one set to the other, if you really want to do it. By the way, to calculate ratios we use teeth amount, not diameter or size.
#interlinkknight i understand how the internals of an automated gearbox works, you've explained it perfectly, but how exactly does pressing the accelerator transform into shifting gears?
+adrian ionut On the bottom of the transmission there are a set of valves and solenoids that are controlled by a computer that "decide" what gear to put base on the speed of the car, speed of the engine and position of the pedal.
InterlinkKnight Ohh, I thought it was mechanically automatic... I was like what's so special about planetary gears that does that? Now I know that it's just a computer.
I don't understand how the sun gear turns faster on P2 for gear 6 than it does for gear 5. Are you sure you got this right? Or should the configuration for gears 5 and 6 be switched?
@@dowskivisionmagicaloracle8593 Let me try. In gear 5 and 6, the sun gears turn freely and the planetary gears drive the sun gear. For gear 5 and 6, the output to P3 is the sun gear, not the carrier, and that`s why things change a little. In both cases, the faster the sun gear turns, the faster the final output will be. Imagine that the planetary gears and ring gear are turning at the same speed (like a 4th gear). In this case, the sun gear will spin with the same velocity as the other 2 gears, right? Now imagine that the ring gear is a little bit slower than the planetary gears. In this case, the sun gear need to spin a little bit faster (in relation to the ring gear, since the planetary gears have the same velocity as before) and that`s what happens. Before, the planetary gears were not spinning, just turning. If the ring gets slower, but the planetary gears don`t, they have to start spinning. The bigger the difference in the speed between the ring gear and the planetary gears, the faster the planetary will spin and the faster the sun gear will rotate. In gear 5, since the P2 ring is also rotating in the same direction, the relative velocity between the ring and planetary gears is not that great. In gear 6, the ring is stationary, so the difference between the speeds are bigger...
Sure it (A tLast!!!) is helpful Interlinkknight. (At my pace, I have to comprehend each "gear movement", day by day, but understanding them firmly, and in a deductive form. Thank You Very Much Interlinkknight.
This is such a great video the only issue that I would see is that the transitions are extremely too quick not allowing for anyone to process the information that your providing. Also you are moving too fast from one concept to the other. The one Saving Grace is that I could Slow Down the video on RUclips. But thank you thank you for taking the time I'm making this video my life is a lot more enriched.
Excellent explanation, btw you explained it better than some channels that have millions of subscribers. I have one question concerning the parking pawl, I always shift the gear when at full stop to neutral even if i'm leaving the car with the foot break fully pressed of course to avoid wearing of the parking pawl so is it right doing that ? Thanks
Thanks for your kind words. I always follow whatever the owner's manual says, which in this case they always recommend putting the selector in "park" and apply the handbrake whenever you park your car. The parking pawl is made to be used and should last the life of the vehicle. Don't be afraid of wearing that.
This is old, but no it doesn't. I have thrown old Ford and GM transmissions into park while moving at speed, and could hear the pawl grinding itself down, and that still didn't do enough to destroy it when I opened it up to inspect. That is one part I have never had to replace on a rebuild and I haven't heard of anyone else having to either. My experience is primarily with rear wheel drive American brand transmissions though. Once it's engaged, it's engaged and not going anywhere.
+creamyfilling102 Then you should watch the video call "ZF 8HP 8 Speed Automatic Transmission" by WeberAuto. That is a crazy complicated transmission. Your brain will not only hurt, but it will explode.
I run CNC shaper machines that make these gears. So.......................................................................... I am pretty much the coolest guy in here. 😎😆
Thank you sir, I have a question. 9:13 Applying C5 will only prevent the planet gears of P2 from turning. They can still spin. Since the planetary carrier of P1 is connected to the ring gear of P2, I wonder if the motion of P1 will pass to P2 through that path, making the planet gears of P2 to spin, resulting a reverse gear instead of a neutral one. Please correct me if I am wrong :(
@@interlinkknight Do you mean there are somethings that intercept the power transmission from the P3 carrier to the output shaft during the neutral gear?
The problem with this and most other videos about automatic transmission is that they don't explain why this kind of planetary gear design is more suitible to be automated than the mechanisms of a traditional manual transmission.
Thank you very much for this wonderful animation. I'd have to watch it a few more times to grasp it better but its good that you explained each gear including N & P. #OneMessageFoundation
On the description there is a link to a video showing how the clutches actually work. They use hydraulic pressure to move pistons that push the clutch plates together.
If there was a P4 instead, would the sun hear of P4 also be connected to the sun gear of P3-P2, and the result would give you an eight-speed transmission? If so, does this continue to scale by two’s? Additionally, is P1 special only because you want to gain reverse? If reverse was not desired, would you be able to simplify the design?
wow definitely I have to watch a number of times before I get it, but my question is once in neutral and at high speed when the vehicle is on, is it ok to go back to drive, or will the transmission get damaged?
hi. realy helpful and thank you very much for the video. which software did you use to create this animation. i need to create an educational video for children to promote disability awareness. it will be a great help. thank you
The answer is no. If the C2 clutch is engaged it would make the ring gear of the planetary gear set #3 (P3) turn with the input, and the C5 clutch blocks the ring gear of P3, so if you engage C2 and C5 you would lock/block everything. Is hard to follow the energy path, but watch carefully a few times and you will get it.
thank you for your respond, i still don't understand the whole system by 100 percent, but i see the logic and the harmonic relation between these components, i was falling asleep in the late night, when i watched this video 5th time ever. thank you for your job, this is the only video, that helped me to understand the automatic transmission principle. i would really appreciate if you made similar explanation videos on 7-speed and 8-speed automatic transmissions (such as mb 7-g tronic, gm hydramatic 8l90 or zf 8hp). thank you for your job!
I am glad I could help. Although I doubt I will ever make a video about other transmissions with more speeds because is hard work making the 3D model and the animation. I made this 3D model because I wanted to 3D print it someday to make it work in real life (small scale). After I had the 3D model, I realize I could make the animation and make a video explaining how it works. Also, if we all have a hard time understanding this basic/simple Allison transmission, can you imagine how hard would it be trying to understand the 8th speed transmissions? I've seen them from inside. Those are crazy complex.
I was watching a f.ing bunch of videos to understand the automatic gearbox, and only yours is worked. Good job
