Reduction in Human Effort in Shifting and Selection Forces in Manual Transmission system

Transmission system is important part of automobile. In the current era of automobile, there are two types of gear shifting mechanism: manual and automatic. Manual gear shifting mechanism is complex and require much effort for shifting and selection of gear so to surmount much effort by kinematic analysis of linkages, joints ergonomically. By changing these parameters in gear shifting mechanism it gives flexibility and less effort for shifting and selection of gear. It also reduce feasibility of error of shifting and selection of gear.

Transmission system is modeled in CREO 2.0 and measuring and data analysis of the shift and selection forces of gear was done with the load sensor shown in Figure 6 and programming was done in LABVIEW 2015.

The final cause of this technical paper is to decrease physical effort by driver for shifting and selection of gear.
