Study Notes

Planetary Carrier

  • Largest component in a planetary gearset.
  • Acts as an essential support structure for gears within the assembly.

Direct Drive

  • Occurs when two members of a simple planetary gearset are locked together.
  • Results in direct coupling between input and output, enhancing efficiency.

Reverse

  • Output direction is achieved when the planetary carrier is held stationary.
  • This mechanism allows for vehicle movement in the opposite direction.

Speed and Direction Relationship

  • An increase in speed output typically leads to a reversal of direction.
  • Key dynamic in understanding transmission functions in automotive systems.
