Various methods and systems are provided for a shift assembly for a vehicle transmission. In one example, a shift assembly for a transmission includes a first barrel cam including a first cam track; a second barrel cam arranged coaxially with the first barrel cam and including a second cam track; a first motor configured to drive the first barrel cam independent of the second barrel cam; and a second motor configured to drive the second barrel cam independent of the first barrel cam.

An oil pressure estimation device for calculating an estimated differential pressure that is an estimated value of a differential pressure between two oil chambers generated in a torque converter including the two oil chambers and a lockup clutch includes a storage device and an execution device. The storage device stores mapping data defining a mapping, the mapping outputting as an output variable an estimated differential pressure variable indicating the estimated differential pressure, in response to input of an input variable, and the mapping having been trained by machine learning. The mapping includes an instruction differential pressure variable indicating the instruction differential pressure as one of a plurality of the input variables. The execution device executes an acquisition process of acquiring a value of the input variable and a calculation process of inputting the value of the input variable into the mapping to calculate a value of the output variable.

A control device for an automatic transmission is provided, which includes a friction engagement element, and a processor configured to execute gear change control logic configured to control a gear change operation by supplying and discharging hydraulic fluid for forming a gear stage to/from the friction engagement element, and lubricant supply control logic configured to control to switching operation of a supply amount of lubricant to the friction engagement element according to an operating state of a vehicle. The processor controls the gear change operation and the switching operation to not overlap with one another.

Systems and methods are provided for controlling a transmission associated with a vehicle. The method includes receiving a neutral range selection for the transmission, and receiving a temperature and a pressure of a lubricant associated with the transmission. The method includes receiving a speed of an input shaft associated with the transmission, and determining, by a processor, based on the temperature and the speed of the input shaft, a pressure threshold value for the lubricant. The method includes outputting, by the processor, one or more control signals to command the transmission to a one clutch neutral state in which one clutch of a plurality of clutches associated with the transmission is engaged based on a comparison of the pressure threshold value to the pressure of the lubricant.

A method for controlling an electric oil pump (EOP) of a hybrid vehicle may include determining whether or not the hybrid vehicle is in a decelerating situation in an EV mode, driving the EOP at an RPM at a point L, corresponding to a minimum RPM of the EOP to form a target line pressure of a transmission, upon determining that the hybrid vehicle is decelerating in the EV mode, determining whether or not an RPM of a turbine is equal to or greater than a predetermined reference RPM, and driving the EOP at an RPM acquired by adding a predetermined additional RPM to secure an additional flow rate of automatic transmission fluid supplied to a balance chamber of an engine clutch to the RPM at the point L, upon determining that the RPM of the turbine is equal to or greater than the predetermined reference RPM.

A transmission, includes a transmission mechanism configured to shift a rotary power input from a power source; an oil pump configured to discharge an oil to be supplied to the transmission mechanism; a lubricating oil pressure control valve configured to adjust a pressure of the oil discharged from the oil pump and supply the oil to a lubrication target portion of the transmission mechanism; and a cooler configured to cool the oil to be supplied to the lubrication target portion of the transmission mechanism by outside air. The lubricating oil pressure control valve adjusts the pressure of the oil supplied to the lubrication target portion in a manner that the pressure of the oil supplied to the lubrication target portion increases as an outside air temperature decreases.
