Abstract:
A transmission comprising,an input shaft, an output shaft, and a first clutch including a first upstream rotary member to be driven by the input shaft, and a first downstream rotary member to be driven by the first upstream rotary member and rotationally connected to the output shaft to drive the output shaft and to be driven by the output shaft, wherein the first upstream and downstream rotary members are adapted to be selectively engaged with each other and disengaged from each other, wherein further comprising, an output shaft driving device for applying a torque to the output shaft at least when the first upstream and downstream rotary members are disengaged from each other, wherein the first upstream and downstream rotary members are disengaged from each other after the torque applied by the output shaft driving device to drive the output shaft is gradually increased.
