Patent ID: 8690722

Claim:
A transmission comprising: an input member; an output member; a first and a second planetary gear set assembly each having a first, second, third, and fourth rotating members a first torque transmitting device selectively engageable to interconnect the second rotating member of the first planetary gear set assembly with the third rotating member of the second planetary gear set assembly a second torque transmitting device selectively engageable to interconnect the third rotating member of the first planetary gear set assembly with the first rotating member of the second planetary gear set assembly a third torque transmitting device selectively engageable to interconnect the third rotating member of the first planetary gear set assembly with the fourth rotating member of the second planetary gear set assembly a fourth torque transmitting device selectively engageable to interconnect the fourth rotating member of the first planetary gear set assembly with the fourth rotating member of the second planetary gear set assembly a fifth torque transmitting device selectively engageable to interconnect the first rotating member of the first planetary gear set assembly with the stationary member; a sixth torque transmitting device selectively engageable to interconnect the first rotating member of the second planetary gear set assembly with the stationary member; and wherein the torque transmitting devices are each selectively engageable in combinations of at least three to establish a plurality of forward speed ratios and at least one reverse speed ratio between the input member and the output member.
