 Automatic transmission - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Automatic transmission families are usually based on Ravigneaux, Lepelletier, or Simpson planetary gearsets.
An automatic transmission is an automobile gearbox that can change gear ratios automatically as the car or truck moves, thus freeing the driver from having to shift gears manually.
An exception to this is the Honda automatic transmission, which does not contain any planetary gearsets; It is essentially a robotized manual gearbox with a torque converter in the place of a conventional clutch.

 Automatic transmission
With a fully automatic transmission, this is compensated for by the use of the torque converter - the gear changes are almost imperceptible to the driver and passengers.
Unlike the 5-speed automatic transmission with Touchshift (Tipfunction), AMG Speedshift combines for the first time the convenience of a fully automatic transmission and the dynamism of a manual transmission.
The shift program of the automatic transmission with AMG Speedshift function was configured to match the sporty character of Mercedes-AMG vehicles: the shift points and shift logic are geared to the performance map to the relevant high-performance engine, achieving highly responsive gear changes, up to 35% faster than with the standard automatic.

 Method for controlling engine torque when shifting gears - US Patent 6547697
Now, particularly in conventional automatic transmissions and in semiautomatic transmissions it is necessary, during gearshifts, to couple and uncouple friction members by means of which the motive power of the engine is transmitted to the wheels of the vehicle.
Another type of automatic transmission consists of conventional mechanical transmissions with positive-engagement mechanisms, in which transmissions the ratios are selected and engaged not directly by the driver by means of a lever, but now using actuators managed by a control unit.
When the transmission 16 is a conventional automatic transmission, the connecting member 18 is usually a hydraulic torque converter.

 The legendary torqueflite automatic transmission
In 1956, the pushbutton automatic was introduced with the Torqueflite automatic, but the entire corporate lineup from Valiant to Imperial switched to a column shift in 1965, much to the disappointment of countless Mopar loyalists.
While the transmission is in second gear, governor pressure is present on the 2-3 shift valve, the front clutch retainer is stopped by the kickdown band, and the rear clutch is applied turning the front planetary and, therefore, the output shaft.
The TorqueFlite transmission was Chrysler's mainstay from its introduction in 1956 through the early 1990s, remaining in duty in modified form (for front wheel drive) through 2001 in the Neon, and continuing even today with electronic controls for trucks.

 transmission --  Encyclopædia Britannica
Although all automatic transmissions essentially eliminate the driver's need to shift gears and use a clutch, the design and construction of automatic transmissions may vary with each manufacturer.
Most mechanical transmissions function as rotary speed changers; the ratio of the output speed to the input speed may be constant (as in a gearbox) or variable.
There are two main types of hydraulic power transmission systems: hydrokinetic, such as the hydraulic coupling and the hydraulic torque converter, which use the kinetic energy of the liquid; and hydrostatic, which use the pressure energy of the liquid.

 Mercedes-Benz Ponton Hydrak Automatic Clutch
From the factory's perspective, a distinct advantage of adapting the Hydrak to the Pontons was that it could be used in connection with the already existing 4-speed manual transmission.  While the driver operated the shift lever (standard H-pattern), there were only two pedals (accelerator and brake) in the floor space.
For years, it has been the ideal of many motorists to eliminate the clutch pedal and still retain a full selection of gear ratios that can be selected at will by simply shifting gears.  This enables the driver to use maximum engine power at all times, aiding maneuverability under adverse driving conditions and in traffic.
This is the brake pedal from Graham van Heerden's original, unrestored 1958 Type 220S coupé.  The car has 96,000 miles and is equipped with a Hydrak.  Note the original woolen carpets.  This South African Ponton has a chassis number of 180.037-Z-8501272.
