In reverse gear, it is necessary to reverse the direction of the mainshaft (output shaft). This is done by introducing a reverse idler gear into the power flow path. The idler gear is located between the countershaft reverse gear and the reverse gear on the mainshaft ... The reverse gear is actually the external tooth sleeve of the first/second synchronizer.

OBS

reverse gear: term officially approved by the Lexicon Project Committee (New Brunswick).

En marche arrière, le pignon de marche arrière de l'arbre de sortie est solidaire de celui-ci[, mais] la transmission passe par un [troisième] pignon, ce qui a pour effet d'inverser le sens de rotation de l'arbre de sortie par rapport aux [quatre] vitesses de marche avant.

OBS

pignon de marche arrière : terme uniformisé par le Comité du projet de lexiques (Nouveau-Brunswick).
