摘要:
A control system for a throttle valve in automotive internal combustion engines in which the throttle valve is both mechanically linked with an accelerator pedal and also connected with an actuator such as a pulse motor for fine-adjusting the opening of the throttle valve in the closing direction in accordance with the operating state of the engine after it has been opened through the mechanical linkage. A spring is inserted in the mechanical linkage system between the accelerator pedal and the throttle valve. The provision of the spring substantially isolates the accelerator pedal from forces acting in other parts of the system so that the operator does not feel an unnatural change in the amount of pressure needed to depress the accelerator pedal when the actuator goes into operation.

A hydraulic continuously variable speed transmission comprises a hydraulic closed circuit for hydraulically connecting the hydraulic pump and the hydraulic motor, a direct clutch valve placed in the closed circuit to block it, a speed reduction ratio control actuator to control the speed reduction ratio, a direct clutch actuator for moving said direct clutch valve from a full-open position to a full-closed position, ratio detecting means which detects the speed reduction ratio and valve position detecting means which detects position of the direct clutch valve to find if the direct clutch valve is moved to a slight-open position. The direct clutch valve is moved quickly from the full-open position to the slight-open position when it is found by the ratio detecting means that the speed reduction ratio has become "1", and then the direct clutch valve is moved slowly from the slight-open position to the full-closed position when it is found that the direct clutch valve has been moved to the slight-open position.
摘要:
The speed reduction ratio of a continuously variable speed transmission on a motor vehicle is controlled by continuously varying the speed reduction ratio in a range between a maximum speed reduction ratio and a minimum speed reduction ratio. A top limit speed reduction ratio corresponding to a speed of the motor vehicle and being higher than the minimium speed reduction ratio is set in a low vehicle speed range. The speed reduction ratio is controlled only between the maximum speed reduction ratio and the top limit speed reduction ratio in the low vehicle speed range.

A throttle valve control system for an internal combustion engine sets a target value of a pressure in an intake pipe of the engine for attaining a minimum fuel consumption rate in response to a detected engine rotational speed, and drives the throttle valve to an opening determined so as to reduce the difference between the detected actual pressure in the intake pipe and the target value of the pressure in the intake pipe. When the actual operation position of the throttle valve is not in an allowable range of a target throttle valve opening determined in response to the detected engine speed, the throttle valve is controlled to reduce the difference between the actual operation position of the throttle valve and the target throttle valve opening.
摘要:
An engine throttle valve control apparatus whereby a reference throttle valve degree of the opening is established in accordance with the accelerator pedal actuation position and a reference opening degree characteristic. A boundary throttle valve degree of the opening is established in accordance with the accelerator pedal actuation position and at least one upper limit opening degree characteristic and a lower limit opening degree characteristic. A target degree of the throttle opening is computed from the relationship between the reference degree of the opening and a boundary degree of the opening, in conjunction with the contents of a characteristic command which can be freely selected. Thereby throttle valve is driven to reduce the deviation between the actual degree of the opening and the target degree of the opening.
摘要:
A hydraulic servo unit for changing the swash plate angle of a continuously variable transmission to vary its speed reduction ratio comprises a cylinder whose chamber is divided into a rod-side chamber and a head-side chamber by a piston slidably fitted therein. The rod-side chamber is supplied with working oil under predetermined hydraulic pressure through a first hydraulic pressure supply passage. A second hydraulic pressure supply passage is connected to the head-side chamber through a duty-cycle-controlled first solenoid-operated valve, and a drain hydraulic passage is connected to the second hydraulic pressure supply passage through a second duty-cycle-controlled solenoid-operated valve. The first and second solenoid-operated valves are simultaneously actuated with different duty cycles. The difference between the different duty ratios is varied to vary the rate at which the working oil flows into or out of the head-side chamber through the second hydraulic pressure supply passage, in a wide range from a very low rate to a high rate. The working oil can accurately be controlled especially in a very low rate range for operating the hydraulic servo unit at very low speed. Therefore, continuously variable transmission can precisely and smoothly be controlled for varying the speed reduction ratio.
摘要:
The speed reduction ratio of a continuously variable speed transmission is controlled by setting a reference engine speed according to a parameter representing a driver's intention of acceleration, such as the depression of an accelerator pedal, and controlling the speed reduction ratio so as to equalize the engine rotational speed with the reference engine speed. When the parameter is lowered such as by releasing the accelerator pedal, the process of controlling the speed reduction ratio due to a reduction in the reference engine speed caused by the reduction in the parameter is started after a certain time delay.
摘要:
A method of controlling a speed reduction ratio includes setting a reference engine speed in correspondence with an accelerator opening, measuring the atmospheric pressure, correcting the reference engine speed in correspondence with a change of the atmospheric pressure to compensate for a change in engine output power caused by the change of the atmospheric pressure, and controlling the speed reduction ratio so that the engine speed coincides with the corrected reference engine speed.
摘要:
A continuously variable transmission on a motor vehicle is controlled by establishing a target terminal acceleration GO to be reached according to an indication of the driver's intention for acceleration or deceleration, such as the amount of depression of the accelerator pedal, and also to an indication of the speed of the motor vehicle. A present calculative acceleration G.sub.CAL is calculated on the basis of a marginal power Pa of the engine which drives the continuously variable transmission. A target present acceleration Gon required at the present time to vary the present acceleration up to the target terminal acceleration Go to be reached along a desired characteristic curve is established according to the difference .DELTA.G (=Go-G.sub.CAL) between the target terminal acceleration Go to be reached and the calculative acceleration G.sub.CAL. Then, the throttle valve of the engine on the motor vehicle and the continuously variable transmission are controlled so that the target terminal acceleration Gon will be reached.
摘要:
A time-dependent engine output power characteristic curve for an engine output power to vary therealong to a target value which corresponds to an indication of intention of the driver for acceleration or deceleration (e.g., the amount of depression of the accelerator pedal) is established based on the difference between a target engine output power and an actual engine output power. Then, a target rate of change of the rotational speed of the engine and a target rate of change of an indication of an engine load are established so that the actual engine output power varies along the engine output power characteristic curve, and the throttle valve and the continuously variable transmission are controlled using the target rates thus established.
