Patent attributes
A power transmission apparatus includes: a planetary gear set configured to output a reduced speed or a same speed as a rotation speed of an engine; a first input shaft selectively connected to an engine output shaft through a first clutch; a second input shaft disposed on the outer circumference of the first input shaft and selectively connected to the engine output shaft through a second clutch; a third input shaft disposed in parallel with the first input shaft; an output shaft disposed in parallel with the first input shaft; an idle shaft disposed in parallel with the first input shaft; and a fixed transmission for selectively shifting torque input according to gear ratios of four speed gear trains. The four speed gear trains are disposed by externally connecting drive gears and driven gears to the first, second, and third input shafts, the output shaft, and the idle shaft.
