0. Reaction members are those parts of a planetar" $earset that are held in order to produce an output motion. *ther members of the planetar" $earset react a$ainst the stationar" or held member.
Instructors Guide to Accompany Todays Technician: Automatic Transmissions & Transaxles 3E 61
1. <ecause of the location of the servo and band anchor, the band becomes self#ener$i=ed and wraps itself around the drum in the same direction as drum rotation. +his self#ener$i=in$ effect reduces the force that the servo must produce to hold the band. 2. ' multiple#disc pac also contains one or more return sprin$s, return sprin$ retainers, seals, one or more pressure plates, and snap rin$s. +he seals hold in the h"draulic pressure durin$ application of the pac . ' pressure plate is a heav" metal plate that provides the clampin$ surface for the plates and is installed at one end or both ends of the pac . +he snap rin$s are used to hold the parts in the pac to$ether. !n a t"pical pac , the appl" piston at the rear of the drum is held in place b" the return sprin$s and a sprin$ retainer secured b" a snap rin$. @"draulic pressure moves the piston a$ainst return sprin$ pressure and clamps the plates a$ainst the pressure plate. +he friction between the plates loc s them to$ether, causin$ them to turn as a unit. 3. +he multiple#friction disc pac can be used to drive or hold a member of the planetar" $earset b" connectin$ the member to the transmission9s case or to a clutch drum. 4. +wo t"pes of sin$le#wrap bands are commonl" used in transmissions toda". *ne t"pe is made of li$ht and flexible steel and the other t"pe is made of heav" and more ri$id cast iron. +he heav" bands are t"picall" made with a metallic linin$ material that can withstand lar$e $rippin$ pressures. &i$ht bands are lined with a less#abrasive material that helps limit drum wear. 5. ' <elleville sprin$ acts to improve the clampin$ force of the assembl", and as a piston return sprin$. +he sprin$ is loc ed into a $roove inside the drum b" a snap rin$. 's the piston moves to appl" the pac , it moves the inner ends of the <elleville sprin$ fin$ers into contact with the pressure plate to appl" the assembl". +he sprin$9s fin$ers act as levers a$ainst the pressure plate and increase the application force of the pac . Ahen h"draulic pressure to the piston is stopped, the sprin$ relaxes and returns to its ori$inal shape. +he piston is forced bac , and the pac is released. 6. 'ccumulators rel" on the action of a piston or a valve to dela" the deliver" of hi$h pressure to a clutch or band. 'n accumulator wor s li e a shoc absorber and cushions the application of servos and disc pac s. 'n accumulator cushions sudden increases in h"draulic pressure b" temporaril" divertin$ some of the appl" fluid into a parallel circuit or chamber. +his allows the pressure to $raduall" increase and provides for smooth en$a$ement of a bra e or clutch. 7. B1hift FeelC is controlled b" the pressure at which each reaction member is applied or released, the rate at which each is pressuri=ed or exhausted, and the relative timin$ of the appl" and release of the members. !t is also affected b" fluid t"pe, the momentar" en$a$ement of a component in a different circuit, pulsed pressures, the clearance of the appl" devices, and man" more desi$n features of the various transmission models. 8. ' roller clutch utili=es roller bearin$s held in place b" sprin$s to separate the inner and outer races of the clutch assembl". 'round the inside of the outer race are several cam#shaped indentations. +he rollers and sprin$s are located in these poc ets. Rotation of one race in one direction loc s the rollers between the two races, causin$ both to rotate to$ether. Ahen a race is rotated in the opposite direction, the roller bearin$s move into the poc ets and are not loc ed between the races. ' one#wa" spra$ clutch consists of a hub and a drum separated b" fi$ure# ei$ht#shaped metal pieces called spra$s. +he spra$s are shaped in such a manner that the" loc between the races when a race is turned in one direction onl". <etween the inner and outer races of the clutch are the spra$s, ca$es, and sprin$s. +he spra$s are lon$er than the distance between the two races. +he ca$es eep the spra$s e%uall" spaced around the diameter of the races. +he sprin$s hold the spra$s at the correct an$le and maintain contact of the spra$s with the races for instantaneous en$a$ement. Ahen a race turns in one direction, the spra$s tilt and
allow the races to move independentl". Ahen a race is moved in the opposite direction, the spra$s strai$hten up and loc the two races to$ether. 09. ' band is applied h"draulicall" b" a servo unit. +he servo contracts the band when h"draulic pressure pushes a$ainst the servo9s piston and overcomes the tension of the servo9s return sprin$. +his action moves an operatin$ rod toward the band, which s%uee=es the band around the drum.
