METHOD FOR CONTROLLING ELECTRIC OIL PUMP
The present disclosure provides a method for controlling the electric oil pump for a vehicle having an idle stop and go system. The system includes a control device for controlling the operation of the electric oil pump when the vehicle is stopped and restarted again. In the system, the operation of the electric oil pump is performed by an actual RPM control applying a target RPM of the electric oil pump and a torque or a current value of the electric oil pump.
Engine-off auxiliary hydraulic pressurization system and method for a transmission
An auxiliary hydraulic pressurization system for use with a vehicle including a transmission having a hydraulic reservoir, a hydraulic circuit, and a main pump may include an auxiliary pump and a controller. The auxiliary pump has a low side adapted to be coupled to the hydraulic reservoir and a high side adapted to be coupled to the hydraulic circuit. The controller is electrically connectable to the auxiliary pump and is configured to turn on the auxiliary pump in response to receipt of a signal indicating that the vehicle is in a stop condition to maintain hydraulic pressurization of the hydraulic circuit of the transmission when the vehicle is in the stop condition.
Hybrid vehicle
A hybrid vehicle is equipped with a drive unit, and an automatic transmission. The automatic transmission includes engagement elements that can transmit power between the drive unit and driving wheels. The drive unit includes an engine, a first motor generator, a second motor generator, and a planetary gear mechanism. The hybrid vehicle is further equipped with a mechanical oil pump and an electrical oil pump, and a controller. The controller continues operating the electrical oil pump while the internal combustion engine is not in operation after the internal combustion engine is stopped as a result of a system stop operation by a user while the vehicle is running at a vehicle speed equal to or higher than a predetermined value.
Hydraulic control system of automatic transmission for vehicle provided with idle stop and go system
A hydraulic control system of an automatic transmission for a vehicle provided with an ISG system is disclosed. The hydraulic control system supplies hydraulic pressure to first and second friction members operated at a gear stage where starting control is performed. In particular, the hydraulic control system includes: a mechanical hydraulic pump; an electric hydraulic pump; first and second linear solenoid valves to control hydraulic pressure generated by the mechanical pump; first and second switch valves to selectively supply the controlled hydraulic pressure to the first and second friction members, respectively; and a third switch valve to selectively supply a portion of the hydraulic pressure of the first friction member to the second friction member.
Systems and methods for controlling a transmission and an engine with a combination park and ignition switch
A drive control system of a vehicle includes a vehicle speed module configured to determine whether the vehicle is moving and set a state of a signal based on the determination. A shift control module is configured to shift a transmission of the vehicle based on a signal from a range selector. Independently of the signal from the range selector, the shift control module is configured to selectively shift the transmission of the vehicle based on a signal from a combination park and ignition switch and the signal from the vehicle speed module. An ignition control module is configured to selectively shut down an engine of the vehicle based on the signal from the combination park and ignition switch and the signal from the vehicle speed module.
CONTROL DEVICE OF CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION, CONTROL METHOD THEREOF, AND CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION AND VEHICLE USING THE SAME
Provided are a control device and a control method of a continuously variable transmission capable of preventing an endless member from slipping even when a parking lock is released. On a condition that a vehicle is in an idling stop state and a parking lock mechanism is in a parking lock state, rotation speed increase control configured to increase a rotation speed of an electric oil pump is executed so that the endless member can be prevented from slipping with respect to a driven pulley even when the parking lock mechanism is switched to a parking lock released state.
Method for operating an automatic gearbox of a motor vehicle
A method for operating an automatic transmission (1) of a motor vehicle in which a hydraulic pump, associated with a hydraulic system, for supplying pressure in the hydraulic system is driven by a drive engine and in which hydraulic shifting elements (B1, B2, B3, C1, C2) are actuated to engage gear steps. According to the method, before the drive engine is turned off for a short duration of time, at least one non-actuated shifting element (B1, B2, B3, C1, C2) of the automatic transmission (1) is actuated or filled with pressure oil.
Method for operating a multispeed transmission in a motor vehicle
A method for operating a multispeed transmission in a motor vehicle, provided with planetary gearings which can be switched with four switching elements to different gear ratios, and which can be connected by input elements and output elements to a driven input shaft and to an output shaft. The reaction elements can be coupled or locked with a brake, wherein the four planetary gearings can be switched by two brakes and by three shifting clutches to eight forward gear ratios. In the higher gear ratios, at least one first shifting clutch is connected to produce a force flow in the transmission, and in the lower gear ratios, at least a second shifting clutch is connected to produce a force flow in the transmission.
Method for operating an automatic start/stop system in a vehicle utilizing a torque converter
A system and method for operating an automatic start/stop system in a motor vehicle having an internal combustion engine, an automatic transmission and a torque converter with an impeller disconnect clutch is disclosed. A controller may implement an engine start/stop system by, at appropriate times, stopping engine by halting fuel and restarting engine when propulsion is needed. During an engine start/stop event, the engine is automatically shut down and the impeller clutch of the torque converter may be disengaged to decouple the impeller and the engine to provide for fuel and emissions savings.
Power transmission control device, and power transmission or vehicle including the same
A power transmission includes a first brake, a pressure regulating valve, an accumulator, an oil temperature sensor, a second electromagnetic valve allowing supply of working oil to a piston, and a power transmission control device. The power transmission control device includes a memory relating and storing a working oil temperature and a permission time configured to allow release of the accumulator, and a receiver unit receiving a starting request. The accumulator is connected such that the working oil, in which the pressure is accumulated, can be supplied to the first brake and the piston. The power transmission control device sets a permission time corresponding to a temperature of the working oil on the basis of the memory. The working oil, in which the pressure is accumulated, is supplied to the first brake only during the permission time when restart information is received, while a vehicle performs idling stop control.
