Abstract
A transmission for motor vehicles having a conical-disc band transmission placed in a casing, a reduction gear and, if necessary, a differential. In order to achieve an optimum transmission-ratio range for motor vehicles and good efficiency, the reduction gear contains two forward speeds and is connected to a fixed gear on the power take-off shaft by means of an additional fixed gear. The driving disc pairs of the conical-disc band transmission are located directly on a section of the drive shaft and on the power take-off shaft. The reduction gear and the conical-disc band transmission can be actuated by means of conventional synchronous clutches. The transmission case is longitudinally fitted with a center wall which subdivides the space into two compartments, one of which is closed by a front cover and the other by a rear cover. While one compartment contains the reduction gear and, if necessary, the differential, the other compartment contains the conical-disc band transmission.
