摘要:
A shift control system of an automatic transmission sets a predetermined gear stage by applying a first frictional engagement element and releasing a second frictional engagement element. A pressure regulating mechanism regulates an oil pressure to be fed to or drained from the first frictional engagement element. A failure detector detects a failure of an apparatus to participate in the regulation and control of the oil pressure which is to be fed to or drained from at least one of the first and second frictional engagement elements. A gear stage inhibitor inhibits the setting of the predetermined gear stage if the failure is detected by the failure detector.

A hydraulic control system for an automatic transmission to establish a predetermined stage by applying a first frictional engagement element and releasing a second frictional engagement element, comprising: a first hydraulic servo for actuating the first frictional engagement element; a second hydraulic servo for actuating the second frictional engagement element; change-over means for switching the feed of an oil pressure to the first hydraulic servo; signal pressure generating means for generating a signal pressure; and a pressure regulator valve for regulating the pressure to be fed to the second hydraulic servo. The pressure regulator valve includes: a first valve member having a first pressure receiving area to be fed with the signal pressure in one direction; a second valve member arranged coaxially with the first valve member and adapted to come into abutment against the first valve member in the other direction, the second valve member having a second pressure receiving area to be fed with the oil pressure to the first hydraulic servo in the other direction, when the oil pressure is fed by the change-over means; and bias means so disposed at the side of the second valve member axially opposed to the first valve member as to bias the second valve member into abutment against the first valve member.

A control system for use in an automatic transmission which includes a gear shift mechanism having first and second frictional engagement elements for establishing: a first gear stage with the first frictional engagement element being applied and the second frictional engagement element being released; and a second gear stage with the first frictional engagement element being released and the second frictional engagement element being applied. The control system, in turn, includes: a first oil passage for feeding an oil pressure to the first frictional engagement element; a second oil passage for feeding an oil pressure to the second frictional engagement element; and a first valve arranged in the first oil passage for regulating the oil pressure of the first oil passage. At the time of a shift from the first gear stage to the second gear stage, the oil pressure of the first oil passage is regulated by the first valve responsive to the oil pressure of the second oil passage. The control system further includes a second valve arranged in the first oil passage for selectively feeding or shutting off the oil pressure of the first oil passage to and from the first frictional engagement element.

A hydraulic control system for an automatic transmission includes a regulator valve in a hydraulic circuit for supplying pressure to a servo of a frictional engagement element. The regulator valve has an input port, an output port and a drain port. A valve member of the regulator valve includes a pressure receiving area fed with a feedback pressure from the portion of the hydraulic circuit between the regulator valve and the servo, and another pressure receiving area selectively fed with pressure from a signal pressure source. A further pressure receiving area, having a surface area different from the another pressure receiving area, is constantly fed pressure from the signal pressure source.

A compact automatic transmission for a vehicle capable of preventing increase in relative rotational speed between shift elements. A planetary gear unit is provided with a sun gear to which rotation of an input shaft is input, a carrier that can be stopped from rotating, and a ring gear for outputting, to a planetary gear set, rotation that is reduced in speed relative to that of the input shaft. A clutch is connected/disconnected, the input shaft and the sun gear are appropriately connected/disconnected, and the carrier is appropriately stopped/unstopped by a brake and a one-way clutch. This prevents relative rotational speed between shift elements of the gear unit that does not participate in a shifting operation from excessively increasing. When the clutch is disposed between the input shaft and the sun gear, the torque capacity of the clutch can be reduced as compared with the case where it is disposed between the gear unit and the gear set. Therefore, the clutch can be formed into a more compact structure and the overall automatic transmission can be made more compact.

The control system comprises: a solenoid valve for outputting a signal pressure when at least the reverse stage and a predetermined one of the forward stages are to be set; a change-over valve for changing the signal pressure selectively into a signal pressure for setting the auxiliary transmission unit to a high gear stage and a signal pressure for controlling an engine braking state; and an engine braking control valve for controlling an engine braking frictional element at the predetermined forward stage into a released state in response to the signal pressure coming from the change-over valve. The acting state of the solenoid valve when the reverse stage is to be set and the acting state of the solenoid valve when the predetermined forward stage for making the engine braking ineffective is to be set are identical to each other.
