A transmission synchronizer that effectively lowers the peak value of the
operation load during synchronization is provided. The transmission
synchronizer is equipped with a coupling sleeve, synchro hub, balk ring
and clutch gear. A synchronizing support force generating mechanism,
during a shift when relative rotation is generated between the synchro
hub and the balk ring by a minute synchronizing torque generated between
balk ring cone surface and clutch gear cone surface, converts a
circumferential force induced by that relative rotation to an axially
applied synchronizing support force, with which the balk ring is pressed
against the clutch gear. A relative rotation regulating structure is
located between the balk ring and the synchro hub, and when in neutral,
it regulates the amount of relative rotation between the balk ring and
the synchro hub so that the synchronizing support force is not generated.
