Abstract:
A hydraulic supply system for a hydraulically-operated automatic transmission includes a primary pump that is driven by an internal combustion engine of a vehicle. An electrically-driven auxiliary pump is provided to supply the system with hydraulic pressure when the primary pump is off or to supplement the primary pump when the primary pump does not deliver sufficient pressure. A discharge line from the auxiliary pump is connected to a control line of the hydraulic supply system and to the hydraulic system supply line under system pressure. Check valves are provided in the respective lines from the auxiliary pump. An additional check valve is provided in a line that extends from the control line to a torque sensing chamber of the automatic transmission.
Abstract:
A hydraulic system including a multi-flow hydraulic pressure supply unit, especially a dual-flow hydraulic pressure supply unit, such as a pump, by which a volumetric flow of pressurized fluid is supplied to a hydraulic-fluid-operated device. A valve arrangement is provided either for switching between the individual pump flows or for interconnecting the individual pump flows.
Abstract:
A hydraulic arrangement for controlling a transmission connected downstream of an internal combustion engine having a start-stop device. A hydraulic energy source provides hydraulic energy, an energy accumulator is connected downstream of the hydraulic energy source for storing and dispensing hydraulic energy provided by the hydraulic energy source, and a hydraulic controller is associated with the hydraulic energy source and the energy accumulator for controlling the transmission. The energy accumulator is associated with the hydraulic controller by a branch line to a pilot control circuit.
Abstract:
A hydraulic system having at least one hydraulic valve for controlling a transmission, in particular a continuously variable transmission. The hydraulic valve is controlled by a pilot circuit including at least one control element having a variable flow resistance and one control element having a constant flow resistance. The control element having a variable flow resistance is connected upstream of the control element having a constant flow resistance.
Abstract:
A compressor drive system for driving a compressor of an internal combustion engine contains a variable speed drive unit and a planetary gear set, the planetary gear set being connected to the internal combustion engine and the compressor in such a way that a first output shaft of the planetary gear set is connected to the compressor, a first drive shaft of the planetary gear set is connected to the internal combustion engine, and a second drive shaft of the planetary gear set is connected to the internal combustion engine through the variable speed drive unit.
Abstract:
A clutch control device for controlling the operation of a hydraulically operated clutch with a flow control valve. The control device includes a volume flow regulating valve that enables both volume flow regulated filling and volume flow regulated emptying of a hydraulic clutch positioning element, to provide rapid and precise operation of the clutch.
Abstract:
A pressure limiting valve having a spool with raised spool lands. The spool is slidably received in a spool bore having inflow and outflow grooves that form control edges. The valve has two control edges, and a hydraulic resistance is connected in series with one of the control edges. Increasing static pressure losses at the control edges during flow, so-called flow forces, can be offset by an increasing back pressure on the valve spool, which is produced by the hydraulic resistance.

Abstract:
A volume flow regulating valve for a hydraulic system for controlling a belt-driven conical-pulley transmission. The valve includes a control piston with a pressure surface and an oppositely facing pressure return surface. A supply segment is associated with the pressure surface, and a cooler return segment is connectable with the supply segment by a control edge of the control piston. A pressure return segment is associated with the pressure return surface, and a pressurizing segment is situated between the cooler return segment and the pressure return segment.
Abstract:
A conical pulley assembly with integrated torque sensor. A torque-dependent force is transmitted through a transmitting component to a sensing piston whose position determines the pressure in a sensing chamber. The transmitting member is connected to the movable disk, and is formed in such a way that it transmits the torque-dependent force to the sensing piston in a manner that is dependent on the position of an axially movable disk of the conical pulley.
