A transmission for a vehicle may include a first input shaft continuously receiving rotational power from a power source; a second input shaft selectively receiving the rotational power of the power source through a clutch; a first counter shaft and a second counter shaft connected to the first input shaft and the second input shaft through a transfer gear pair, respectively; a controlling device selecting the transfer gear pair to transfer the rotational power from the first input shaft and the second input shaft to the first counter shaft and the second counter shaft; a one-way clutch allowing the rotational power provided to the first input shaft to be transferred only from the first input shaft toward the first counter shaft.

Transmission for vehicle

A transmission for a vehicle is provided to reduce a full length and a weight of the transmission. The transmission includes: first and second input shafts, output and transfer shafts disposed in parallel with the first and second input shafts; a transfer idler shaft to reduce rotational power transmitted to the transfer shaft and transfer the reduced rotational power to the output shaft via a gear structure; and a shaft gear apparatus. The shift gear apparatus selects a gear pair suitable for a traveling speed by a synchronizer by meshing gear pairs with: the first input shaft and the output shaft, the second input shaft and the output shaft, and the first input shaft and the transfer shaft. In particular, the gear pairs include a gear pair to form a lowermost stage, a gear pair forming an upper most stage, and a gear pair for forming a reverse stage.

A transmission for a hybrid vehicle may include a first input shaft continuously provided with power from an engine, a second input shaft selectively provided with power from the engine via a clutch, a counter shaft coupled to the first input shaft, an output shaft coupled to the second input shaft, a first one-way clutch disposed on a path along which power is transferred from the engine to the output shaft, a motor input shaft provided with power from a motor, a motor-side shift unit comprising a plurality of pairs of gears having different gear ratios, in which one pair of the plurality of pairs of gears suitable to a traveling speed is selected by an engager/disengager, and a second one-way clutch disposed on a path along which power is transferred from the motor to the output shaft.

An automated manual transmission includes: a first input shaft configured to receive rotation power from a power source via a main clutch and a second input shaft configured to always receive the rotation power from the power source. A gearbox part is configured to have a plurality of shifting gear pairs having different gear ratios engaged with the first input shaft and an output shaft and select the shifting gear pair suited for a driving speed by a synchronizer. A counter shaft is configured to be disposed in parallel with the output shaft, and an assist input gear is configured to be coupled with the counter shaft via an assist clutch and engaged with an output gear provided at the output shaft to form a gear ratio of a specific shifting stage.
