以下示意图反映了说明汽车变速器布置的各种方法。开发这些功能是为了便于清楚地了解齿轮传动装置、离合器、液压驱动装置和其他变速箱部件的功能相互关系。使用了两种变速箱示意图:空档（未应用离合器）和档位。出于说明目的，显示了一些典型的传输。

The following schematic diagrams reflect various methods of illustrating automotive transmission arrangements. These have been developed to facilitate a clear understanding of the functional interrelations of the gearing, clutches, hydrodynamic drive unit, and other transmission components.Two variations of transmission diagrams are used: in neutral (clutches not applied), and in gear. For illustrative purposes, some typical transmissions are shown.
