Abstract
A vehicle transmission has a plurality of gear positions that are to be selectively established, and includes: an input shaft; a first shaft; a second shaft; an output shaft; at least one first drive gear disposed on the first shaft; at least one second drive gear disposed on the second shaft; at least one driven gear disposed on the output shaft; a dog clutch connecting and disconnecting between the input shaft and each of the first and second shafts; and a synchronous meshing apparatus. The synchronous meshing apparatus connects and disconnects between each of the first and second shafts and the output shaft, and, when connecting between each of the first and second shafts and the output shaft, establishes a power transmission path from each of the first and second shafts to the output shaft via a selected one of the at least one first or second drive gear.
