The invention concerns a multi-step transmission with at least 7 forward
gears, with which transmission on the input drive shaft (1), two
non-shiftable input-side gear sets (RS1, RS2) are provided, which, on
their output-side produce two speeds of rotation (n1, n2), which, besides
the speed of rotation of the input drive shaft (1), by selective closure
of the shift elements (A, B, C, D, E) are shiftable in such a manner to
one of the output-side planetary gear sets (RS3, RS4) which upon the
output drive shafts (2), that for the shifting from one into the
respective next following higher or lower gear of the two activated shift
elements, respectively, only one shifting element must be open and a
further element closed.
