Abstract:
A transmission includes a sub-transmission mechanism (30), a variator (20) having lower shift responsiveness than the sub-transmission mechanism (30), and a controller (12) configured to carry out a coordinated shift for changing a speed ratio of the variator (20) in a direction opposite to a changing direction of a speed ratio of the sub-transmission mechanism (30) as the sub-transmission mechanism (30) is shifted so that a through speed ratio reaches a target through speed ratio. The controller (12) sets a target speed ratio of the sub-transmission mechanism (30) on the basis of the target through speed ratio and an actual speed ratio of the variator in carrying out the coordinated shift.
Abstract:
A continuously variable transmission for a vehicle according to the present invention includes a transmission controller (12) configured to perform a variator (20) and an auxiliary transmission (30), a line pressure regulating valve (11a), a primary pressure regulating valve (11b), and a secondary pressure regulating valve (11c). The transmission controller (12) includes a line pressure control section ( FIG. 4 ) configured to increase a line pressure (PL) to be greater than the line pressure before the generation of the oil vibration when the oil vibration is generated in at least one of the primary pressure (Ppri) and the secondary pressure (Psec). When the auxiliary transmission mechanism (3) is shifted in a state where the line pressure (PL) is increased, the line pressure section ( FIG. 4 ) is configured to continue the increase of the line pressure (PL) until the auxiliary transmission mechanism (30) is finished for attaining the stable shift.

In the present invention, there are provided with an auxiliary transmission mechanism (30) disposed in series with a variator (20), and having at least two or more forward gear stages; and a transmission controller 12 configured to increase the belt capacities to be greater than the belt capacity set when the accelerator opening degree (APO) is zero, at least in a time period from a timing when the accelerator opening degree APO becomes zero, to a timing when a braking force is generated by a depression of a brake pedal. The transmission controller (12) is configured to set an increase amount with respect to the belt capacity set when the accelerator opening degree (APO) is zero, to a smaller value as a transmission gear ratio of the auxiliary transmission mechanism (30) is higher.
Abstract:
In a control apparatus for an automatic transmission including a continuously variable transmission mechanism continuously modifying speed ratio and a stepped transmission mechanism that is disposed on a downstream side of the continuously variable transmission mechanism and being switched between a plurality of gear positions by engaging and disengaging a plurality of frictional engagement elements, the control apparatus comprises a control unit that performs a coordinated shift by shifting the stepped transmission mechanism and simultaneously shifting the continuously variable transmission mechanism in an opposite direction to a shift direction of the stepped transmission mechanism in order to suppress variation in a through speed ratio, which is an overall speed ratio of the automatic transmission, when the stepped transmission mechanism is upshifted and the control unit predicts, on the basis of an increase in an accelerator opening, that judder will occur in the frictional engagement element during the upshift, the control unit reduces a shift speed of the continuously variable transmission mechanism while shudder is predicted to occur in the frictional engagement element in comparison with a shift speed of the continuously variable transmission mechanism during the coordinated shift, the coordinated shift being executed at an accelerator opening corresponding to the increased accelerator opening.

Abstract:
A transmission controller executes synchronization shift of shifting a variator in a direction opposite to a speed ratio change direction of a sub transmission mechanism when shifting a sub transmission mechanism. When a gear position of the sub transmission mechanism is at the second gear position and an output increase request of a power source is made, the transmission controller prohibits the synchronization shift and shifts only the sub transmission mechanism from a second gear position to a first gear position.

Abstract:
A gear-shifting mechanism for vehicles has a crankcase (10), a gearbox (20) and a reserved room (30). Because the reserved room (30) is formed between a first case (11) of the crankcase (10) and a body (21) of the gearbox (20), a shift lever (14) can protrude out of the first case (11) and is mounted into the reserved room (30) to connect to a transmission between the crankcase (10) and the gearbox (20). Besides, the shift lever (14) also can protrude out of a second case (12) to connect to a transmission opposite to the gearbox (20). As a result, the shift lever (14) can output in two directions, applicable for the gearbox (20) in left or right of the crankcase (10). An engine connected to the gear-shifting mechanism can be adapted for various vehicles.
