Patent abstract
A transmission is provided that utilizes a unique packaging scheme for torque-transmitting mechanisms and gear drive members in order to minimize the overall axial length of the transmission. Specifically, the transmission may include a clutch housing that is connected for common rotation with a transmission input member. A rotatable hub member may be connected for common rotation with both the clutch housing and a gear member, thereby connecting the gear member for common rotation with the input member. Preferably, the rotatable hub member is connected to the clutch housing by the reaction plates that extend from the clutch housing. First and second torque-transmitting mechanisms may be packaged within the clutch housing.
