ABSTRACT
A dual clutch transmission (DCT) can shift more quickly than cars equipped with manual transmissions or single-clutch automated-manual transmissions (AMTs). However, DCTs have complicated structures because two clutches are arranged concentrically. In this study, we develop a novel shift mechanism based on a barrel cam to enhance the shifting efficiency of DCTs. We have analyzed the multi-body dynamics of the shift mechanism including barrel cam, per-select synchronizer and fork for various cam-profiles such as cycloid, polynomial and modified sine curves. Simulation results show that the angular velocities of engagement and disengagement of the shift mechanism and contact force. In addition, the proposed shifting mechanism is shown to reduce the shift shock and response time during the shift process.

Optimisation of cam-follower motion using B-splines
This paper proposes design of cam-follower velocity curve by using B-spline polynomials. B-spline polynomials are smooth curves defined by control points. Curve shape can be modified by changing the control points. The traditional design method for ...
Effects of clearance on dynamics of parallel indexing cam mechanism
ICIRA'11: Proceedings of the 4th international conference on Intelligent Robotics and Applications - Volume Part IIndexing cam mechanisms are widely used in some kinds of light-industry machineries. They have great effects on dynamic performance of the machines. Some faults like clearance can not only worsen dynamic properties but also damage key components in the ...
Development of a biped walking robot actuated by a closed-chain mechanism
We developed a new type of a human-sized BWR (biped walking robot) driven by the closed-chain type of a joint actuator. Each leg of the BWR is composed of three pitch joints and one roll joint. In all, a 12 degree-of-freedom robot, including four arm ...
