The role of the automotive gearbox shift forks

The automotive gearbox shift forks is located in the headstock. Its main function is to transmit torque, so that the transmission can obtain the power of shifting. The advantage is that it can be changed from one speed to another without a series of conversions in the middle. Therefore, the shifting is convenient, and the disadvantage is that it is complicated.

The role of the automotive gearbox shift forks :

The automotive gearbox shift forks is also called the shift fork, which is used to dial the synchronizer ring to realize the combination and separation of the forward gears. The reverse gear has no synchronizer, and the fork directly shifts the reverse gear to achieve the switching reverse gear.

As an important part of the car's gearbox, the fork is connected to the shifting handle, located at the lower end of the handle, and the intermediate shifting wheel is toggled to change the input/output speed ratio. The shifting fork is used for shifting. It is mainly used in the operating mechanism to disengage two snap-in gears and then shift one of the gears that can slide on the shaft to another gear to obtain another speed. That is, the position of the internal gear of the transmission is changed to achieve shifting.
