Patent ID: 8142332

Claim:
A transmission device ( 5 ) with at least two change-under-load shift elements ( 6 , 7 ), the transmission device comprising: the at least two shift elements having transmission capacities that are varied by an actuation device ( 8 ) such that a first of the at least two shift elements ( 6 , 7 ), which is engaged in a force flow when a shift is initiated, is disengaged from the force flow by the actuation device ( 8 ) and a second of the at least two shift elements ( 6 , 7 ), which is to be disengaged when the shift is initiated, is engaged in the force flow by the actuation device ( 8 ); the actuation device ( 8 ) comprises a coupling device ( 10 ) for actively coupling an actuator ( 9 ) with the at least two shift elements ( 6 , 7 ), the actuator ( 9 ) applying a variable amount of actuating force on the at least two shift elements ( 6 , 7 ) to facilitate engagement and disengagement of the at least two shift elements ( 6 , 7 ); and the actuator ( 9 ) applying a variably decreasing amount of actuating force on the first of the at least two shift elements ( 6 , 7 ) while the actuator ( 9 ) simultaneously applying a variably increasing amount of actuating force on the second of the at least two shift elements ( 6 , 7 ).
