Final Stage
When the speed of the shifter (5) becomes the same
as that of the gear (8), the force of the synchronizer ring
(7) in its rotating direction is not applied to the shifter
(5) and the rotation of the synchronizer ring (7) is no
longer transmitted to the shifter (5).
Therefore, the shifter (5) engages with the synchro-
nizer ring (7) and further engages with the gear (8) for
complete connection.
