Embodiment Construction
[0022] Referring to the drawings, there are shown different embodiments of a vehicle transmission having a clutch assembly with improved howl reduction capability, like symbols designating like or corresponding parts throughout the views. Significant noise reduction is achieved through the use of a set of mass dampers in the clutch assembly. In one embodiment, for example, the damper is a sprung mass damper coupled to a clutch gear. The mass damper changes the vibration pattern of the clutch gears during engagement, thereby reducing the noise output during shifting. The two runners (also called receivers or grooves) are 180 degrees apart on the clutch gear. Both dampers are press fit into the slots to connect the dampers to the clutch gear. This manufacturing method yields the added lubricating advantage that when the mass damper is coupled in the clutch gear, a lubricant seal is formed between one side of the clutch gear and the other side of the clutch gear.
