    Abstract: The invention concerns an electronic controller for a continuously variable transmission of the type having a variator (10) with a rotary variator input (17) coupled to a first variator race (14a) and a rotary variator output (29) coupled to a second variator race (16a). At least one roller (20) runs upon the said races to transfer drive from one to the other. The roller is movable to steplessly vary the variator ratio. The variator further comprises at least one hydraulic actuator (36), (38) which acts upon the roller and through which net torque acting on the variator races is referred via the roller to the variator's casing. A hydraulic arrangement is provided for applying to the actuator at least one hydraulic control pressure which determines force applied’ by the actuator and thus determines the reaction torque. The variator is coupled between a rotary transmission input (17) and a rotary transmission output (714) such that the transmission ratio is a function of the variator ratio. The electronic controller is adapted to cany out the following steps in a loop: measure a speed ratio of the continuously variable transmission; compare the measured speed ratio with a target speed ratio; determine a transmission output torque request on the basis of the said comparison; convert the output torque request to a control pressure request, taking account of the speed ratio; differentiate the control pressure request with respect to lime to obtain a compensation value and apply the compensation value to the control pressure request; and output the resulting compensated control pressure request to the hydraulic valve arrangement.

    Abstract: The invention concerns an arrangement for control of a continuously variable transmission. The transmission includes a variator (10) having a movable torque transfer part (rollers 18) whose position corresponds to a variator drive ratio. A hydraulic actuator (28) is arranged to exert an adjustable force on the torque transfer part. The transmission further comprises a flow control arrangement which is arranged to receive as control inputs (a) the current position of the torque transfer part and (b) a demanded position for it. The demanded position may for example be determined by driver input. The flow control arrangement is adapted to supply through a supply outlet which communicates with the hydraulic actuator a flow of fluid which is modulated in accordance with an error between the two control inputs. The flow of fluid increases with increasing error. A relief passage (110) leads from the said outlet to a pressure sink and is constricted so that fluid flow through it results in a pressure at the hydraulic actuator which is greater than that of the sink by an amount which corresponds to the rate of flow through the relief passage. The result is a mode of control of the transmission which possesses some of the advantages of both torque and ratio control.

The actuator has opposed first and second working chambers. The circuit includes first and second flow lines that are connected to two respective actuator working chambers. The lines feed fluid thereto and therefrom A pressurized supply of fluid urges fluid flow through the flow lines. A variable control valve is incorporated in both flow lines. Each valve generates an adjustable back pressure therein. A further valve is connected between the two flow lines. The further valve has a variable opening and is located upstream of the variable control valve. Opening of the further valve enables flow fluid from one flow line to the other to reduce pressure difference between the lines.

    Abstract: A variator lockout valve system for a continuously variable transmission includes a pair of shift valves. Each shift valve has at least one port that is fluidly coupled to a variator of the continuously variable transmission. Electro-hydraulic actuators control the position of each of the shift valves. When the shift valves are in one position, pressure control valves supply fluid pressure to the variator. If one of the shift valves is in another position, one of the pressure control valves is blocked from supplying fluid pressure to the variator.
