An epicyclic gear mechanism for automobile transmissions is a device which is connected from engine to driving wheels, and the main purpose is to maintain the revolution speed of engine to be in a desired working range while accelerating or decelerating the automobile. The epicyclic gear mechanisms for automobile transmissions in production are mostly Ravigneaux-type, Parallel-connected type and Lepelletier epicyclic mechanisms, and the Lepelletier epicyclic gear mechanisms is a device which is connected with a simple epicyclic gear mechanism besides the input end to increase the total number of speed ratios of an automatic transmission. For the incompletion in the relative design methodology, a systematic methodology of designing Lepelletier epicyclic gear mechanisms for automobile transmission is described. At first, fundamental and gear-shifting operations of the Lepelletier-type automatic transmissions is introduced, and the basic principles of lever analogy is explained, the gear ratio¡¦s analysis for Lepelletier epicyclic gear mechanisms is illustrated to establish the design requirements. Secondly, gearing-sequence is devised base on the lever analogy diagrams, and a systematical procedure to arrange desired clutches and brakes into epicyclic gear mechanisms is provided, then the number of the teeth of all gears can be calculated. At last, the six-speed and eight-speed Lepelletier automatic transmissions are designed base on the above design procedure. The results of this work obtain 19 types of automatic transmission which could reach six-speed.
