Massey Ferguson 6445 Tractor Gearbox Dynashift

The Dynashift unit is mounted between the reverse clutch of the power shuttle and the mechanical unit consisting of the drive pinion. It is a hydraulically operated gear shift mechanism which provides the MF 6445 tractor gearbox with four input ratios.

The function is ensured by two epicyclic gear trains linked to two hydraulic clutches. Dynashift design enables selection of four ratios, without declutching, using a lever located under the steering wheel.

The Dynashift unit is controlled by two solenoid valves mounted on the clutch unit located on the front right-hand side of the gearbox. The two solenoid valves are controlled by the electronic system of the Massey Ferguson 6445 tractor.

The Dynashift input unit comprises two epicyclic gear trains:

- the primary epicyclic gear train, the main part of the input unit, used to transmit the movement from the engine to the gearbox,

- the secondary epicyclic gear train controls the speed of the primary sun gear.

Primary epicyclic gear train

The movement enters via the primary ring gear which is splined onto the transmission shaft. It rotates at engine speed.

The movement exits via the planet carrier which is splined onto the secondary shaft.

The primary sun gear is driven by the secondary epicyclic gear train.

The speed of this sun gear determines the drive unit ratio of the MF6445 tractor gearbox.

Secondary epicyclic gear train

This epicyclic gear train is controlled by hydraulic clutches and brakes.

The secondary ring gear is:

- either locked on the primary shaft by three clutch discs and the Belleville washer located in the front part of the unit,

- or immobilised in relation to the housing by three brake discs and a piston.

When there is no pressure, the piston is pulled back by the twelve springs and the Belleville washer by means of the thrust plate.

When the 17 bar pressure is built up in the circuit, the piston moves forward and locks the brake discs while pushing the thrust plate that compresses the Belleville washer.

The speed of the secondary ring gear is established as follows:

- speed equals engine speed if the front piston is not under pressure,

- speed nil when the front piston is under pressure.

The secondary sun gear is either:

- locked on the secondary shaft with four clutch discs and a Belleville washer located on the rear part of the unit,

- or immobilised in relation to the housing by means of three brake discs and a piston.

When there is no pressure, the piston is pushed forward by the Belleville washer and six springs. The 17 bar pressure moves the piston back and locks the brake discs.

It compresses the Belleville washer by means of the thrust plate which releases the clutch discs of the secondary shaft.

Immobilisation of either the secondary ring gear or the secondary sun gear modifies the speed of the secondary planet carrier.
