AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing five-speed manual transmissions for commercial vehicles, the intermediate shaft is usually assembled using an interference fit or welding process, which results in low assembly efficiency or high cost, and poses risks of slippage and slippage.

Method used

It adopts an integral intermediate shaft design, with the central main gear, central third gear, central second gear, central first gear, and central reverse gear being integrally machined with the shaft body. It combines oblique gear shaping and gear hobbing into one piece, uses spline grooves and spline holes for connection, and is equipped with tapered bearings to avoid additional fixing measures such as welding.

Benefits of technology

It improves the strength and service life of the intermediate shaft, avoids slippage and uneven movement, enhances shifting smoothness and comfort, and reduces labor costs and deformation risk.
