Abstract:
1. A synchromesh device for a transmission comprising: a shaft; a sleeve spline-engaged to the shaft to be movable relative to the shaft in a shift direction of the sleeve; an idler gear provided at the shaft; a gear piece formed at the idler gear; a synchronizer ring synchronizing a rotation of the idler gear and a rotation of the shaft by sliding on the gear piece to generate a friction force in accordance with shifting of the sleeve; a first spline, a second spline and a third spline formed at an inner circumference of the sleeve, an outer circumference of the gear piece and an outer circumference of the synchronizer ring, respectively, the first spline of the sleeve being engageable with each of the second spline of the gear piece and the third spline of the synchronizer ring; and a plurality of first chamfers, a second chamfer and a third chamfer formed at one end of the first spline of the sleeve, one end of the second spline of the gear piece and one end of the third spline of the synchronizer ring, respectively, for a spline-engagement and for a thrust-through operation, wherein each one of the plurality of first chamfers of the sleeve includes a small-diameter side thrusting through the third chamfer of the synchronizer ring at the time of shifting and a large-diameter side thrusting through the second chamfer of the gear piece at the time of shifting, and wherein a chamfer angle of the large-diameter side is smaller than a chamfer angle of the small-diameter side in the same first chamfer.
