    摘要: A method for operating a dual clutch transmission of a motor vehicle having a first partial transmission, a second partial transmission, and a transmission output shaft common to the partial transmissions and drivable both by the first partial transmission and by the second partial transmission, in which the dual clutch transmission is in a parking lock state in which two gears of one of the partial transmissions are engaged simultaneously. The following steps are carried out to exit the parking lock state: Introducing a torque caused by a drive element of the motor vehicle via the transmission output shaft common to the one partial transmissions into the one and/or other partial transmission while the gears of the partial transmission are engaged; and disengaging at least one of the gears of the one partial transmission engaged simultaneously in step a).

    摘要: A line pressure control method for a double clutch transmission (DCT) includes estimating a line pressure, which decreases with stoppage of an electric oil pump, based on a linear regression model using state variables of the DCT that are related to a line pressure change, and driving the electric oil pump when the line pressure estimated based on the linear regression model reaches a predetermined lower limit.

    摘要: A method of operating a shifting system for a vehicle transmission includes engaging a clutch to operatively couple one of first and second gear ratios to an input member, and moving a disconnect from a first disconnect position where a disconnectable component is disengaged from the disconnect, to a second disconnect position where the disconnectable component is engaged with the disconnect to operatively couple the other of the first and second gear ratios to the input member through a shifting assembly. Engaging the clutch and moving the disconnect are performed such that the clutch is operatively coupled to one of the first and second gear ratios at the same time that the shifting assembly is operatively coupled to the other one of the first and second gear ratios, thus preventing torque from being transmitted through either the first and second gear ratios of the vehicle transmission to park the vehicle.

    摘要: A system, method and apparatus are disclosed for a clutch assembly for an automated manual transmission. The clutch assembly includes a dual power path. One power path connects a prime mover to the automated manual transmission via a wet clutch, and a second power path connects one of the prime mover and the automated manual transmission to a grounded connection for synchronizing the speed thereof for a gear change.

    摘要: A hydraulic system for an automatic transmission of a motor vehicle. A high-pressure circuit, in which a pressure accumulator, at least one clutch, and gear selectors and a hydraulic pump, which can be operated by an electronic control unit and by which the accumulator pressure in the high-pressure circuit can be increased in charging operation. A clutch valve that can be operated by the control unit is arranged in a clutch path between the pressure accumulator and a clutch hydraulic cylinder of the clutch, using which clutch valve a hydraulic pressure applied to the clutch hydraulic cylinder can be adjusted, and a safety valve that can be operated by the control unit is arranged upstream of the clutch valve.
