Furthermore, the ultrasonic flow rate measurement device includes a suppressing member formed at each of the openings, for suppressing the fluid to be measured from intruding into each of the sensor fixing cavities, wherein the suppressing member is molded integrally with the sensor fixing casing.
摘要:
A control system and method for controlling a multiple gear ratio automatic transmission in a powertrain for an automatic transmission having pressure activated friction torque elements to effect gear ratio upshifts. The friction torque elements are synchronously engaged and released during a torque phase of an upshift event as torque from a torque source is increased while allowing the off-going friction elements to slip, followed by an inertia phase during which torque from a torque source is modulated. A perceptible transmission output torque reduction during an upshift is avoided. Measured torque values are used during a torque phase of the upshift to correct an estimated oncoming friction element target torque so that transient torque disturbances at an oncoming clutch are avoided and torque transients at the output shaft are reduced.

摘要:
In an ultrasonic flow meter device of the present invention, a compressive conductive fastener member including conductive parts is retained between a casing having a fluid passage in which a fluid which is a measurement target flows; ultrasonic transmitters/receivers mounted to the casing, and a control printed board disposed to face the ultrasonic transmitters/receivers, and in this state, the control printed board is fastened. Thereby, the ultrasonic transmitters/receivers are electrically connected to the control printed board without the use of lead wires. A cost increase can be suppressed, and an influence of an outside noise can be mitigated because of omission of the lead wires. Therefore, reliability of the ultrasonic transmitters/receivers can be improved.
