Problems solved by technology

However, when arranging a plurality of rotational speed sensors in the power unit, it is necessary to secure a space for arranging these rotational speed sensors, which may lead to enlargement of the power unit, and it is also necessary to consider interference with peripheral parts.

Abstract

A vehicle power unit for which a transmission, which is equipped with a gear transmission mechanism having a gear train of multiple gear ranges that can be established alternately and a gear selection mechanism that enables the gear train to operate so as to establish the multiple gear ranges alternately, is housed in a transmission case. Multiple rotational frequency sensors which separately detect the rotational frequency of multiple rotation members forming a portion of the transmission are attached to the transmission gear case. The multiple rotational frequency sensors (S1, S2, S3) are arranged in a dispersed manner in a projection view on a plane orthogonal to the axial center line (C1) of the crankshaft (27) so as to sandwich therebetween multiple shaft members (81, 82, 83, 84) possessed by the gear selection mechanism (51). Thus, it is possible to provide the multiple rotational frequency sensors on the case without increasing the size of the power unit.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a power unit for a vehicle, which houses a transmission equipped with a gear transmission mechanism and a gear selection mechanism in a transmission case mounted on a vehicle frame. The main shaft can input power from the crankshaft of the internal combustion engine, and the intermediate shaft is arranged parallel to the main shaft at a position offset in the vertical direction relative to the main shaft, and simultaneously with the main shaft. The driving wheels are interlocked and connected, and the gear selection mechanism is configured to have a plurality of shaft members, and the plurality of shaft members are connected to the main shaft and the intermediate shaft on the side opposite to the crankshaft with respect to the virtual plane. arranged in parallel, the imaginary plane passes through the central axis of the main shaft and the central axis of the intermediate shaft, and the gear selection mechanism can work i...
