摘要:
A vehicular transmission system is disclosed that includes an engine, a transmission having an input shaft, a master friction clutch for drivingly connecting the engine to the transmission, an inertia brake for selectively controlling rotation of the input shaft, and at least one control unit. The control unit includes logic rules that selectively disable operation of the inertia brake in response to a system operating condition during at least one mode of operation of the vehicular transmission system. The system also includes at least one input corresponding to a system operating condition and at least one output corresponding to a command to log a fault or disable operation of the inertia brake in response to the system operating condition during the at least one mode of operation. A control system and method for operating the vehicular transmission system are also disclosed.
摘要:
A system/method of resetting the value of a control parameter (GCW.sub.CP) indicative of vehicular gross combined weight and determined as a filtered/averaged value, to a predetermined default value upon sensing vehicle operating conditions deemed indicative of a change in vehicle loading. A vehicle automated mechanical transmission system is controlled as a function of the value of the control parameter. The default value is relatively high compared to the expected range of actual vehicle gross combined weight. Large skip upshifts, greater than 50% ratio step, are prohibited after a reset until the control parameter value is verified.
摘要:
A control system/method to minimize unwanted shifts in an automated mechanical transmission system (12). Initiation of shifts are prohibited unless throttle position (THL) has achieved a substantially steady-state value (|(d/dt(THL))|

An improved vehicular automated splitter-type mechanical transmission system. The splitter section is retained engaged in its currently engaged splitter ratio at power-down until vehicle speed falls below a reference (OS
摘要:
A control strategy for an electronically controlled X-Y shifting mechanism for a vehicle transmission which takes advantage of the extra supply voltage available on European vehicles while maintaining commonality with U.S. shifter systems. A variable voltage pulse width modulated duty cycle percentage is maintained at or below a 50% nominal value to make the 24V source appear as a 12V source, allowing commonality in X-Y shifting mechanism hardware and basic control algorithms for both 12V and 24V vehicle systems. However, this percentage is increased to greater than the nominal 50% limit when the available supply voltage drops below 24V, as well as between an initial movement of the shift finger and engagement of the finger with a shift block, in order to provide faster motor acceleration to obtain top speeds quicker and during low force but top speed movement conditions.
摘要:
A vehicular transmission system is disclosed that includes a prime mover, a transmission having at least one mode of operation where the transmission is selectively shifted into a lower gear ratio as vehicle speed decreases, a master friction clutch for drivingly connecting the prime mover to the transmission, and at least one control unit. The control unit includes logic rules that selectively prohibit the transmission from being shifted into a lower gear ratio in response to a system operating condition during the at least one mode of operation. The system also includes at least one input corresponding to a system operating condition and at least one output corresponding to a command to prohibit the transmission from being shifted into a lower gear ratio in response to the sensed system operating condition. A control system and method for operating the vehicular transmission system are also disclosed.
摘要:
A method/system for controlling downshifting in an automated mechanical transmission system (10) utilized on a vehicle. When a downshift from a currently engaged ratio (GR) is required (ES 1) and then single downshifts (GR.sub.TARGET =GR-1) are evaluated in sequence.
摘要:
A degraded mode of operation (FIG. 7) for a partially automated mechanical transmission system (92) having a splitter-type mechanical transmission (10) with a splitter section (14) automatically shifted in only certain ratios (ninth/tenth). Upon sensing certain system faults when in this automatic splitter shifting mode, the splitter section is retained, as is, until main section neutral can be confirmed, at which time the splitter section is returned to manual control for all transmission ratios.
摘要:
A control for confirming disengagement of a disengaging gear ratio (GR). Signals indicative of input shaft speed (ES or IS) are compared to signals indicative of output shaft rotational speed (OS) to determine if the quotient of input shaft rotational speed to output shaft rotational speed (IS/OS) remains outside an increasing-sized window (GR.+-.error, GR.+-.2*error, GR.+-.3*error).
摘要:
A partially automated mechanical transmission system (92) having a mechanical transmission (10) with a lower group (first-eighth) of manually shifted ratios and an upper group (ninth-tenth) of ratios with automatic shifting between ratios in the upper group and requiring manual shifting between groups. Control logic is provided to sense a driver intention to shift into the automated upper group of ratios and to initiate automatic engine synchronizing for engagement of one of said ratios in said upper group.
