Abstract:
1. A double-clutch transmission, comprising: an input system provided with drive gears of a first gearshift level group of a plurality of gearshift levels divided into two groups, a first input shaft to which the drive gears of the first gearshift level group are installed, drive gears of a second gearshift level group, a second input shaft to which the drive gears of the second gearshift level group are installed, a first clutch which conveys the rotational force of an engine to the first input shaft, and a second clutch which conveys the rotational force of the engine to the second input shaft; an output system provided with driven gears of a first gearshift level group engaged with the drive gears of the first gearshift level group, driven gears of the second gearshift level group engaged with the drive gears of the second gearshift level group, an output shaft unit by which the driven gears of the first gearshift level group and the driven gears of the second gearshift level group are rotatably supported, the output shaft unit including at least one output shaft by which at least one of the drive gears is rotatably supported, a first synchromesh mechanism which is installed to the output shaft unit, and achieves synchronous rotation between the first input shaft and the output shaft unit, and a second synchromesh mechanism which is installed to the output shaft unit, and achieves synchronous rotation between the second input shaft and the output shaft unit; a first detection unit which measures a rotational speed of the first input shaft; and a second detection unit which measures a rotational speed of the second input shaft, a control unit that connects the clutch of one of the first input shaft and the second input shaft which is not synchronously rotated with the output shaft unit to synchronize the speed of rotation of the one of the first input shaft and the second input shaft with that of the engine, and utilizes the measured rotational speed of the one of the first input shaft and the second input shaft as the engine rotational speed, and selectively controls the clutch of the other of the first input shaft and the second input shaft based on the measured rotational speed of the one of the first input shaft and the second input shaft.
