    摘要: To improve the comfortability in riding by discriminating sudden acceleration upon startup before connection of a centrifugal clutch and limiting the engine output power. A supervision starting condition discrimination section discriminates whether or not an engine satisfies a supervision starting condition for starting discrimination of satisfaction of a starting control condition. The supervision starting condition is discriminated based on a vehicle speed, a throttle opening and an engine speed. Particularly, a condition at least of the engine speed from among the parameters such as the vehicle speed is set to a value lower than a speed at which a centrifugal clutch is connected. If the supervision starting condition discrimination section discriminates that the condition is satisfied, then a startup control condition discrimination section discriminates whether or not the vehicle is in a sudden acceleration state based on whether or not the throttle opening has a magnitude (for example, 50%) corresponding to a sudden opening of the throttle. If sudden opening of the throttle is detected, then an ignition retard section issues an instruction to an ignition timing control section to retard the ignition timing in order to limit the output power.

    摘要: To improve the maintainability of a vehicle by properly identifying a worn endless belt in a belt-type automatic transmission and informing a driver of the proper belt replacement interval. The belt replacement timing annunciator relies upon the radii of the endless belt wound around a drive pulley and around a driven pulley that vary to produce shifting change gear ratios. Various operating conditions and the actual change gear ratio for the specific operating condition are detected, and a comparison between a reference change gear ratio and the actual change gear ratio is made to determine if belt replacement is necessary. A timer device provides a predetermined observation interval for avoiding erroneous readings and a display is also provided for indicating the necessity of belt replacement.

    摘要: A centrifugal clutch includes a clutch weight in a plane perpendicular to a rotation axis of an input member for enabling friction fitting to an inside of a clutch housing. The clutch weight is turnably supported by a drive plate. A grooved portion is provided on a clutch weight in a position that is opposite to a drive plate. At least one end of grooved portion is closed and is formed in a turning direction of the clutch. A damping rubber supported by the drive plate abuts against an inside face of the grooved portion. The damping rubber is held in the grooved portion in a compressed state by being compressed between the drive plate and the clutch weight. The centrifugal clutch so configured effectively inhibits vibration of a clutch weight when the clutch is let in, and minimizes both the parts required and man-hours for assembly.

    摘要: A continuously variable transmission is mounted on a vehicle capable of selecting plural drive modes and changes a target engine speed between drive modes. A pulley ratio is controlled by a motor. An ECU for transmission control includes a calculation section which outputs a target engine speed as a function of throttle opening and vehicle speed, and a motor control value determination section which outputs a control value for controlling the motor based on the target engine speed and an actual engine speed. In a case where, when a drive mode is selected, the current target engine speed changes by an amount exceeding a predetermined judgment value according to vehicle speed, the motor control value determination section updates the current target engine speed in a stepwise manner. The resulting configuration reduces a shift shock caused by a drive mode change.

    摘要: A power transmission system for a snowmobile reduces the weight thereof, and allows a streamlined body to be obtained. A drive side pulley of a V-belt transmission is mounted on a right end of a crankshaft of an engine. A gear box is disposed on the right side of a driven side pulley of the V-belt transmission at a position near the driven side pulley. The driven side pulley is fastened to an input shaft. Thus, the V-belt transmission and gear box are disposed on the same right side of the engine, so that the connecting shaft for connecting the V-belt transmission to the gear box is shortened and the weight thereof is reduced. Further, the V-belt transmission and the engine are disposed between a pair of right and left main frames, and the gear box is disposed outside of the right main frame, to thereby shorten a distance between the right and left main frames.
