Anomaly determination apparatus
An anomaly determination apparatus for a vehicle that includes a transmission includes an execution device and a memory device. The memory device is configured to store map data that defines pre-trained map, which has been trained through machine learning. When a variable representing time-series data of a rotation speed of a gear is fed to the map as an input variable, the map outputs a state variable representing a state of the gear as an output variable. The execution device is configured to execute: an obtaining process that obtains the variable representing the time-series data as a value of the input variable; and a determination process that determines whether there is an anomaly in the transmission based on a value of the output variable that is output by the map when the value of the input variable is fed to the map.
Vehicle gear-shifting control apparatus
A vehicle gear-shifting control apparatus is equipped with an engine, an automatic transmission, and a controller which changes a shift stage by outputting a gear-shifting signal in accordance with the rotation speed of an input shaft to the automatic transmission. The controller executes a torque-regulating control of temporarily increasing or decreasing an input torque input to the input shaft during a shift-change, and when executing the control, determines whether or not a target increase/decrease amount of the input torque can be realized based on calculation results of a target output torque and a target gear-shifting time, executes the control to realize the target amount when it is determined that the target amount can be realized, and executes the control based on an allowable gear-shifting time set in advance to be longer than the target gear-shifting time when it is determined that the target amount cannot be realized.
System, method, and apparatus for operating a high efficiency, high output transmission
A transmission includes an input shaft and an output shaft, the input shaft selectively accepting a torque input from a prime mover, and the output shaft selectively providing torque output to a driveline. A controller determines a shaft displacement angle representing an angle value of rotational displacement difference between at least two shafts of the transmission, and performs a transmission operation responsive to the shaft displacement angle.
SPEED CONTROL DEVICE
A speed control device includes: a vehicle information output unit that outputs at least two, as vehicle information, of measurement information on forward/backward acceleration of a vehicle measured by an acceleration sensor, forward/backward actual acceleration of the vehicle obtained from an output rotation of an automatic transmission, and a traveling driving force based on a driving force output by a driving source and an air resistance acting on the vehicle; and a setting unit that selects a shift mode by comparing the vehicle information with a predetermined selection threshold and sets a shift point for controlling the automatic transmission provided in the vehicle based on the shift mode.
ALL-WHEEL-DRIVE-VEHICLE CONTROLLER
An all-wheel-drive-vehicle controller includes: a drive gear coupled to a driving source; a driven gear meshed with the drive gear and coupled to main and sub driving-wheel axle shafts transmitting torques to main and sub driving wheels, respectively; a transfer clutch interposed between the driven gear and the sub-driving-wheel axle shaft and adjusting the torque transmitted to the sub driving wheel; a first determination unit determining whether a first condition in which a torque applied to the drive gear is substantially zero is satisfied; a second determination unit determining whether a second condition in which hydraulic pressure is applied to the transfer clutch and a torque applied to the driven gear is substantially zero is satisfied; and a control unit controlling a torque adjuster to adjust the torque applied to either one of the drive gear and the driven gear if the first and second conditions are satisfied.
Control device for vehicle, and control method for vehicle
An electronic control unit is configured to control a hydraulic pressures of engaging element and disengaging element in accordance with a preset target output shaft torque during a power-on downshift. The electronic control unit is configured to delay a start of decrease in the hydraulic pressure of the disengaging element from a start of a torque phase while maintain the hydraulic pressure of the disengaging element at the start of the torque phase. The electronic control unit is configured to start decreasing the hydraulic pressure of the disengaging element when the electronic control unit determines that overspeed of an input shaft is occurring during the torque phase and a predetermined condition is established.
CONTROL METHOD OF CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSIONS
A control method of a continuously variable transmission mounted on a vehicle includes performing advance compensation in a speed ratio control system of the continuously variable transmission, and making an advance amount according to a vibration frequency of torsional vibration of an input shaft of the continuously variable transmission which is the advance amount of the advance compensation variable in accordance with an operation state of the vehicle. A feedback gain of speed ratio control of the continuously variable transmission performed in the speed ratio control system is variable in accordance with an operation state of the vehicle. When the advance amount is made variable, the advance amount is made variable in accordance with the feedback gain.

A method (200) for the open-loop control of a gearbox (100) that includes a first and a second proportionally controllable shift element (A-F) is provided. The method includes disengaging (215) the first shift element (A-F) according to a first control profile and engaging (220) the second shift element (A-F) of the gearbox (100) according to a second control profile.

Control system of power transmission system
A control system controls a power transmission system located between a motive power source and drive wheels. The power transmission system includes a fluid coupling and an engagement device. The control system includes an electronic control unit configured to: obtain information concerning vibration of the power transmission system; determine whether the vibration of the power transmission system is in a resonance region of the power transmission system; control the engagement device so that the engagement device slips, when the electronic control unit determines that the power transmission system is in the resonance region; and control the motive power source when the electronic control unit determines that the power transmission system is in the resonance region, so that a rotational speed of the motive power source increases as compared with a case where the power transmission system is not in the resonance region.
Transmission control method of belt type continuously variable transmission
In a first process, a tangential friction coefficient of a non-slippage side pulley of a drive pulley and a driven pulley is estimated from a tangential friction coefficient and a winding diameter of a slippage side pulley. In a second process, torque transmitted by a metal belt is calculated from the tangential friction coefficient and the winding diameter. In a third process, a required axial thrust of the non-slippage side pulley is calculated from the torque and the winding diameter. In a fourth process, the gear ratio is changed by reducing a ratio holding axial thrust of the non-slippage side pulley toward the required axial thrust. Therefore, the gear shifting can be performed merely by reducing the axial thrust of the non-slippage side pulley, and thus it is possible to improve the durability of the pulleys or the metal belt and to reduce a load of a hydraulic pump.
