Abstract To eliminate or reduce torque interruption and driveline jerk for traditional automated manual transmission (AMT), AMT with a gearshift assistant mechanism (GAM) is originally proposed in this paper. The GAM consists of a torque complementary motor and an epicyclic mechanism with a synchronizing clutch. During gear upshift, the electrical motor provides complementary torque to primary (output) shaft after synchronizer discharges, then the synchronizing clutch will work to synchronize primary shaft with anticipated gear. The lockup of the synchronizing clutch will ensure the synchronization of primary shaft and anticipated gear. After finishing synchronizing, synchronizer will lock up the anticipated gear and engine recovers torque supply to finish gearshift. Based on the mathematical model of the proposed transmission, its detailed structure, kinematic character and dynamic behavior are discussed. Controllers are designed to achieve presumed gearshift performance, and simulation results show its effectiveness. Problems may be encountered in engineering application and possible application on electrical vehicle (EV) of the proposed transmission are also discussed. Finally, this paper summarized the merits and further research targets of the proposed transmission, which is a promising structure to achieve swift and smooth gearshift.
