摘要:
A system and method of dithering speed and/or torque for shifting a transmission of a vehicle having an engine, a reversible, variable displacement hydraulic motor/pump which can be driven by the engine, a hydraulic accumulator supplied by said motor/pump, and at least one reversible hydraulic driving motor for propelling the vehicle supplied with fluid by the hydraulic accumulator and/or by said motor/pump operating as a pump. A transmission unit connects the engine with the variable displacement hydraulic motor/pump during a first mode of operation (city mode) and connects the engine to a vehicle drive wheel during a second mode of operation. The system utilizes stored hydraulic energy to dither the output of the driving motor in order to achieve quick and smooth shifts between city and highway mode, or between various ranges within the city mode.
摘要:
An automatic transmission system for a vehicle having a plurality of drive gears mounted on an input shaft, a plurality of driven gears mounted on an output shaft and meshing with the drive gears, a torque converter disposed between a crankshaft of an engine and the input shaft, synchromesh mechanisms for synchronously engaging the drive gears with the driven gears and a shift controller for automatically actuating the synchromesh mechanisms so as to obtain a required gear ratio, includes a lock-up clutch incorporated in the torque converter for connecting a turbine shaft of the torque converter with the crankshaft, an electronically controlled throttle valve for automatically operating to reduce a rotation speed of the crank shaft when the gear is shifted, a bypass clutch for transmitting torque from the input shaft to the output shaft when the gear is shifted while the electronically controlled throttle valve operates to reduce a rotation speed of the crankshaft, and an input clutch provided between an output element of the torque converter and the input shaft for selectively controlling a torque transmission from the crankshaft to the input shaft when the gear is shifted.
