Reversing gear introduction

Reversing gear introduction

Reverse gear is a kind of driving gear that all cars have. They are usually marked with the capital letter R. After the reverse gear is reversed, the direction of the vehicle will be opposite to that of the forward gear, and the car will be reversed. When the driver moves the gear shift lever to the reverse gear position, the power input wheel direction of the engine end is unchanged, and the reverse output gear inside the gearbox is docked with the output shaft, thereby driving the output shaft to run in the opposite direction, eventually driving the wheel reverse direction. Rotate for reverse. In a manual transmission with five forward gears, the position of the reverse gear is generally at the rear of the fifth gear, which is equivalent to the position of the “six” gear; some are set in the independent gear zone, which is more common in more than six In the model of the block; some will be placed directly below the 1st gear, and the gear lever should be pressed down one layer and then moved to the bottom of the original 1st gear, such as the old Jetta.

In the automatic car, the reverse gear is mostly placed in front of the gear control console, immediately after the P gear, before the N gear; in the automatic car with or without the P gear, the middle of the reverse gear and the forward gear It must be separated by neutral, and the R gear can be hung or removed by pressing the brake pedal and pressing the safety button on the gear handle or pressing the gear lever. These designs of car manufacturers are designed to minimize driver misuse.
