摘要:
A transmission has a manual selector valve which is reciprocally and rotatably mounted in a valve body and operable in a conventional "H" shift pattern to permit selection of first through fifth forward drive conditions, a neutral condition and a reverse drive condition in a planetary transmission. The selector valve has a line pressure chamber formed thereon that remains in fluid communication with a line feed passage in the valve body throughout the "H" pattern. This line pressure chamber is selectively alignable with respective clutch and brake apply passages formed in the valve body to control the flow of pressurized oil for the engagement of respective clutches and brakes. A plurality of exhaust chambers formed therein are also selectively connectible with the clutch and brake apply passages to control disengagement of the respective clutches and brakes not required for the selected drive condition.

A transmission includes an input member, an output member, a plurality of torque-transmitting mechanisms that are selectively engageable to establish at least four forward speed ratios and at least one reverse speed ratio between the input member and the output member, and one or more latches associated with one or more of the torque-transmitting mechanisms. The one or more latches engages the respective torque-transmitting mechanisms during or prior to a start event.

The present invention provides a pressure control system having a control solenoid with plurality of coils disposed therein, and operable to provide a plurality of pressure gain characteristics to a torque-transmitting mechanism. By selectively energizing the individual coils or a combination thereof, multiple pressure gains may be achieved with a minimum of additional system hardware.

A method for controlling a clutch assembly includes controlling an actual clutch fill pressure using open-loop pressure controls when an active fill phase is detected, and using closed-loop pressure controls when the active fill phase is complete or when an overfill condition is detected. The method supplies the actual clutch pressure according to a second set of open-loop pressure controls when a step in commanded clutch pressure is detected. The method monitors a fill pressure and time during the step, and applies the clutch pressure according to the closed-loop pressure controls when either value equals a corresponding threshold value. A clutch assembly has a piston for compressing clutch disks to initiate a shift event, an algorithm for controlling the shift event, and a sensor for determining an actual clutch pressure during the shift phases. The algorithm switches between closed-loop and open-loop pressure controls in response to different shift phases.

An electric motor is connected solidly to the main transmission oil pump shaft on the transmission case. An off-axis chain and gear are connected to the main oil pump shaft via a single freewheeling clutch, so that either source of torque in a hybrid motor can drive the oil pump or the oil pump can be driven by the electric motor or the hybrid motor depending on which motor is traveling at a higher speed.

A method of operating a torque converter clutch in an engine start-stop vehicle improves launch after an auto stop event. During the autostop event, hydraulic fluid is supplied to the torque converter clutch operator through one or more solenoid valves by an auxiliary electric pump. When the prime mover is started at the conclusion of the autostop event, the torque converter clutch is thus locked, assuring rapid and sufficient torque transfer through the torque converter to the transmission and improved acceleration during vehicle launch. As the vehicle accelerates, the hydraulic pressure in the clutch operator is reduced and slip through the clutch increased to achieve a smooth launch and return to conventional torque converter operation.
摘要:
An automatic transmission includes a control system for controlling a clutch of the transmission. The control system includes a first variable flow solenoid and a second variable flow solenoid, each in selective fluid communication with the clutch. The first variable force solenoid provides hydraulic fluid within a first pressure range of 0 and 1,000 kPa. The second variable force solenoid provides hydraulic fluid within a second pressure range of 0 and 2,000 kPa. A transmission controller sends an electrical signal having a current between the range of 0 and 1 amp to one of the first and second variable flow solenoids. The pressure output of each of the first and second variable force solenoids is a function of, within their respective first and second pressure ranges, the amplitude of the current of the electrical signal to provide two distinct power gains to the single clutch.

A hydraulic control system for actuating a torque transmitting device in a transmission includes a sump for receiving a hydraulic fluid and a piezoelectric pump for pumping the hydraulic fluid from the sump to the torque transmitting device. A first fluid flow path communicates the hydraulic fluid from the sump to the piezoelectric pump and a second fluid flow path communicates the hydraulic fluid from the piezoelectric pump to the torque transmitting device. An exhaust means selectively communicates the hydraulic fluid from the torque transmitting device to the sump.
