increased speed to the sun gear (22) due to the con-
nection with the sun gear (23). The planetary pinion
gears (18) turn between the annulus gear (10) and
the sun gear (22). The speed of the planetary carrier
(14) and the output shaft connected to the planetary
carrier (5) lies between that of the annulus gear (10)
and the sun gear (22). This provides a step-up ratio.

Torque from the torque converter is increased via
the input shaft (25) and all three planetary gearsets
and transferred with reversed direction of rotation to
the output shaft (26). (Fig. 12) (Fig. 13)
Front Planetary Gear Set
The annulus gear (8) is driven by the input shaft
(25). The sun gear (21) is held against the housing by
the locked freewheel F1 (20) during acceleration and
via the engaged multiple-disc holding clutch B1 (4)
during deceleration. The planetary pinion gears (17)
turn on the fixed sun gear (21) and increase the
torque from the annulus gear (8) to the planetary
carrier (13). The planetary carrier (13) moves at a
reduced speed in the running direction of the engine.Rear Planetary Gear Set
The planetary carrier (15) is held against the hous-
ing by the engaged multiple-disc holding clutch B3
(5). The annulus gear (11) turns at a reduced speed
due to the mechanical connection to the front plane-
tary carrier (13). The planetary gears (19) turn
between the annulus gear (11) and the sun gear (23).
The direction is reversed by the held planetary car-
rier (15) so that the sun gear (23) turns in the oppo-
site direction to the running direction of the engine.

The annulus gear (10) is held against the housing

The end face of the command valve (5) (Fig. 16) is
kept unpressurized via the solenoid valve for 1-2 and

valve (4), the working pressure (p-A) is present at
the multiple-disc holding clutch B1 (7). Clutch K1 (6)
is unpressurized.
