A vehicle supercharging system and a control method thereof are disclosed. The vehicle supercharging system includes: an engine generating power according to combustion of a fuel; a transmission including at least one friction clutch; an electric supercharger that compresses air by rotational force of a motor; an engine-side supercharging path part branching from an air supplying line that supplies air to the engine, passing through the electric supercharger, and joining the air supplying line; a transmission-side supercharging path part that sucks air separately from the engine-side air supplying line, passes through the electric supercharger, and supplies compressed air to the transmission; and a controller that operates the electric supercharger according to a driving state of a vehicle and that controls the engine-side supercharging path part for boosting the engine and the transmission-side supercharging path part for cooling or warming the transmission through control of valves.

Vehicle supercharging system and control method thereof

Nine forward speeds and one reverse speed are achieved by a power transmission apparatus for a vehicle including a double clutch, a plurality of input, output, and idle shafts, a plurality of gears fixed to or rotatable on the shafts, a plurality of synchronizers selectively synchronizing gears to the shafts.

Power transmission apparatus for vehicle

Ten forward speeds and one reverse speed are achieved by a power transmission apparatus for a vehicle including a double clutch, a plurality of input, output, and idle shafts, a plurality of gears fixed to or rotatable on the shafts, a plurality of synchronizers selectively synchronizing gears to the shafts.

A differential pinion gear has a curved interior surface, defining a hole for a pinion shaft to be disposed therein. The hole is narrower at the center and wider at the ends. The interior surface may have a radius of curvature at the center of the hole that is larger than the radius of curvature at each of the ends of the hole. The hole may also include a chamfered portion at each end.
