摘要:
An interactive cruise control system and method for providing automatic speed control of a vehicle with improved shifting of an automatic transmission. The system and method controls speed of a vehicle equipped with cruise control and minimizes downshifts in an automatic transmission of the vehicle. Vehicle speed is detected and compared with a setpoint speed which is associated with the cruise control system. Transmission gear shifting is determined based on predetermined shift schedule points. Determined transmission gear downshifts are prevented for a kickdown delay period based on vehicle speed loss and the presence of vehicle deceleration. Also provided is an overspeed reduction method for causing a transmission downshift during an overspeed condition with the throttle closed. Further, the system provides hunting prevention between both second gear and third gear as well as between third gear and fourth gear of a four speed automatic transmission.
摘要:
A method of adaptively scheduling an upshift. The method determines whether the vehicle can maintain speed in a high gear and, if it cannot, to inhibit the lower to higher gear upshift. This is accomplished by observing vehicle acceleration in the lower gear, determining whether the vehicle will be capable of providing a predetermined value of acceleration after an upshift of the gear assembly to a higher gear. If the vehicle will not be capable of providing the predetermined value of acceleration, then the upshift will be prevented.

A method of torque phase shift control for an electronic automatic transmission system to determine the apply rate of a fluid actuating device and adjusts the same to match the torque build-up of the apply element to the torque fall-off of the release element during shifting of the transmission.

摘要:
A fluid actuated switch valve in a four-speed transmission to direct fluid flow between solenoid-actuated valves and a clutch apply piston in a low gear position and in a high gear position, while allowing one of the solenoid-actuated valves to also direct fluid flow to the lock-up piston of a torque converter in the high gear position.
