A transmission includes an input shaft coupled to a prime mover, a countershaft, main shaft, and an output shaft, with gears between the countershaft and the main shaft. A shift actuator selectively couples the input shaft to the main shaft by rotatably coupling gears between the countershaft and the main shaft. The shift actuator is mounted on an exterior wall of a housing including the countershaft and the main shaft. An integrated actuator housing includes a single external power access for the shift actuator. A controller interprets a shaft displacement angle, determines if the transmission is in an imminent zero or zero torque region, and performs a transmission operation in response to the transmission in the imminent zero or zero torque region.

In this vehicle control device (10), which controls operation of a vehicle provided with a transmission including a direct gear and an overdrive gear, which is a gear with a lower gear ratio than that of the direct gear, a travel segment determination unit (15) determines a next travel segment which, forward in the travel direction of the vehicle, has a road slope different from that of the current travel segment where the vehicle is currently traveling. A next gear stage selection unit (16) determines a next gear stage, which will be the gear stage of a transmission in the next travel segment, on the basis of the speed of the vehicle, an equal fuel consumption map of the engine of the vehicle, and the travel resistance of the vehicle in the next travel segment estimated on the basis of the road slope in the next travel segment. The next gear stage selection unit (16) selects the next gear stage referring to different equal fuel consumption maps depending on whether the gear stage of the transmission is the direct gear or whether the gear stage of the transmission is a normal gear.

A control device for a continuously variable transmission performs transmission control so that an actual transmission control value becomes a target transmission control value. The control device includes a lead compensation unit, delay compensation unit, and a setting unit. The lead compensation unit performs lead compensation of the target transmission control value. The delay compensation unit performs delay compensation of the target transmission control value. The setting unit is configured to set as the target transmission control value a post-compensation target transmission control value for which compensation is performed by the lead compensation unit and the delay compensation unit according to at least one of an input side rotation speed of the continuously variable transmission, an input torque to a driven side rotation element of the continuously variable transmission, a transmission ratio of the continuously variable transmission, and a rate of change of the transmission ratio.

A control apparatus for a continuously variable transmission includes a primary-pulley clamping force acquiring unit that acquires a clamping force of a primary pulley, a secondary-pulley clamping force acquiring unit that acquires a clamping force of a secondary pulley, an input torque acquiring unit that acquires a torque applied to the primary pulley, a transmission ratio acquiring unit that acquires a transmission ratio, a learning value acquiring unit, and a controller. When a learning condition is satisfied, the learning value acquiring unit decreases the clamping force of the secondary pulley while the transmission ratio and the input torque are kept substantially constant, and acquires, as a learning value, the clamping force of the secondary pulley at which a clamping force ratio is maximum. The controller adjusts a target clamping force of the secondary pulley on the basis of the learning value.

A transmission control device is used in an automatic transmission device including a transmission gear having friction coupling portions that are changed between a coupled state and an uncoupled state, and configuring transmission stages corresponding to a combination of the coupled state and the uncoupled state, and a hydraulic control device. The device includes: a determination unit determining a change in the transmission stage; and an output unit setting a target value of the hydraulic pressure, and outputting the target value to the hydraulic control device. In a case where one transmission stage is changed to another, the output unit increases the target value to a first value for a first friction coupling portion in the uncoupled state in the one transmission stage, thereafter, to a second value smaller than the first value and maintaining the uncoupled state, and thereafter, to a third value greater than the second value.

A gear shift control device for an automatic transmission device includes a transmission including an output unit setting and outputting a target value of the hydraulic pressure to the hydraulic control device. The output unit, when the shift stage is changed from a shift stage to another, increases the target value for a first friction coupling portion in the decoupled state in the shift stage to a first value, reduces to a second value, increases to a third value after the value is reduced to the second value, sets to a fourth value after the value is increased to the third value, and sets to a fifth value after the target value is set to the fourth value, and the output unit sets the fourth value according to magnitude of input torque to the transmission.
