摘要:
The hydraulic pressure for operating the two wheel drive/four wheel drive switchover clutch in the part-time type four wheel drive device or the central differential lock-up clutch in the full-time type four wheel drive device is produced by a combination of a pressure regulation valve and two switchover valves to be selectable among several substantially different pressure levels so that the four wheel drive device can be quickly switched over between the complete four wheel operation and the complete two wheel operation, including one or more intermediate half clutched incomplete four wheel operation.

An automatic transmission includes a fluid torque converter and a first and second gear transmission mechanisn, each of which has two coaxial drive members--a power input member and a power output member--and is selectable to any one of several speed radios. Rotational power is output from the fluid torque converter to the power input member of the first gear transmission mechanism. The torque converter, and the first gear transmission mechanism including the power input and output members thereof are all coaxial on a first axis. The power input and output members of the second gear transmission mechanism rotate around a second axis parallel to the first axis, and a first lay shaft element is coupled to this power input member and extends along this second axis out from one side of the second gear transmission mechanism and is rotationally coupled to the power output member of the first gear transmission mechanism by a rotational power transfer mechanism, while a second lay shaft element is coupled to the power output member of the second gear transmission mechanism and extends along this second axis out from the other side of the second gear transmission mechanism and is fixedly coupled to a power output gear wheel.

A governor valve for a hydraulic controller in an automatic transmission, which is disclosed herein, comprises an adapter having a line pressure supply bore made therethrough, a cylindrical governor rotary shaft loosely fitted into the adapter sleeve and having a line pressure supply port made therein, the port including notches intersecting the axis at right angles, a centrifugal weight mounted on one end of the governor rotary shaft and having a return spring, and a spool adapted to slide within the governor rotary shaft with the weight being urged against one end thereof. In this governor valve, there are provided dirt and dust collecting means for preventing dirt and dust separated by a centrifugal action from collecting in the line pressure supply port during the stoppage of the governor rotary shaft so as to make the shaft stick.

A vehicular transmission including an underdrive unit and an overdrive unit operatively interconnected by an intermediate shaft, each having at least one planetary gear system including a sun gear, a ring gear, planetary pinions and a planetary carrier wherein an extension member integral with the input gear of the overdrive unit axially extends around the periphery of the intermediate shaft and is operatively spline-coupled to the intermediate shaft. The transmission also includes bearings on the outer periphery of the extension member for supporting an output gear mounted for rotation axially between the underdrive and overdrive units; the output gear conveying transmission rotation to gears for driving the wheels of the vehicle.

In a vehicle in which opening of an intake throttle valve is controlled in accordance with stepping-on amount of an accelerator pedal by way of an electronic throttle opening control device, a hydraulic pressure control device is provided so as to detect a discrepancy between the stepping-on amount of the accelerator pedal and the opening of the intake throttle valve and to automatically cancel supply of hydraulic pressure to a selected one of friction engaging devices of an automatic transmission of the vehicle when the discrepancy exceeds a certain allowable limit value.

A torque converter includes a coaxially mounted pump impeller, turbine, and stator, each of which includes an outer shell, an inner shell, and vanes extending between the outer shell and the inner shell having edges which define an inlet and outlet. The pump impeller outlet is proximate to the turbine inlet, the turbine outlet is proximate to the stator inlet, and the stator outlet is proximate to the pump impeller inlet. The outer and inner shells cooperate to define outer and inner toroidal surfaces, which together define a hollow toroidal hydraulic fluid circulation path. The ratio between the axial extent and the radical extent of a section of the outer toroidal surface is less than approximately 0.9. The axial distance between the general axial position of the edges of the stator vanes which define the stator inlet and the axial position of the edge of the stator inner shell in the direction of the stator inlet is substantially greater than zero, and the stator vanes which define the stator inlet extend more towards the direction of the turbine outlet than does the edge of the stator inner shell in the direction of the stator inlet.

A one-way clutch biasing means for an automatic transmission, comprising: an inner spline formed on a one-way clutch retaining member; an outer spline formed on the outer race of the one-way clutch and loosely meshed with the inner spline; and a resilient member fitted between a side wall surface of the inner spline of the retaining member and an opposing side wall surface of the outer spline of the outer race to urge the outer race constantly in the locking direction of the one-way clutch.

An automatic transmission includes a transaxle casing and an overdrive casing fixed to the transaxle casing. A gear transmission mechanism is housed within the transaxle casing, and an overdrive mechanism is housed within the overdrive casing. Each of these is hydraulically controlled. A first hydraulic fluid accumulator for moderating sudden pressure changes within a part of a control mechanism for the gear transmission mechanism is housed within the transaxle casing, and a second hydraulic fluid accumulator for moderating sudden pressure changes within a part of a control mechanism for the overdrive mechanism is housed within the overdrive casing. Thereby a common type of transaxle casing may be used both for an automatic transmission assembly which incorporates such an overdrive mechanism and for an automatic transmission assembly which does not incorporate such an overdrive mechanism, and in the latter case no waste of space within the transaxle casing due to the unnecessary provision of space for the second hydraulic fluid accumulator need occur.
