Transmission system based on shift by wire and method for controlling the same

A shift by wire-based transmission system and a method for controlling the same, may include a transmission lever, a main controller that determines a target gear stage and a current control delay time of an actuator based on a manipulation signal received from the transmission lever and controls driving of the actuator based on the determined target gear stage and the current control delay time to determine a gear stage position in a response to the driving of the actuator, and a transmission control unit that controls a hydraulic pressure based on the gear stage position determined by the main controller.

High efficiency, high output transmission

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. The shift actuator is mounted on an exterior wall of a housing including the countershaft and the main shaft. A shift control circuit operates a shift actuator using a first opposing pulse command and a first actuating pulse command, and releases pressure with shift actuating and opposing volumes of the shift actuator upon determining a shift completion event.

Shift control device for vehicle

A shift control device for a vehicle, includes: a minimum vehicle speed calculator that, when it is determined that a vehicle on traveling needs to decelerate before the vehicle arrives at a forward predetermined point, calculates a minimum vehicle speed using the periphery information; a shift position determination unit that determines a target shift position; and a downshift controller that, when the minimum vehicle speed is calculated, commences a downshift from a current shift position to the target shift position. Further, the downshift controller implements first control of performing multiple downshifts from the current shift position to the target shift position such that shift timing is provided at regular intervals, or second control of performing multiple downshifts such that rotational speeds of the engine after the respective downshifts become equal to each other.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING FRICTION ELEMENTS

A vehicle includes a transmission having a plurality of friction elements selectively engageable to establish power flow paths within the transmission. A controller of the vehicle is programmed to, during a boost phase of a shift, command a first hydraulic boost pressure for a plurality of control loop cycles to an oncoming one of the friction elements (oncoming friction element) and subsequently command a second hydraulic boost pressure less than the first hydraulic boost pressure for only a single control loop cycle that defines an end of the boost phase to the oncoming friction element.

System, method, and apparatus for operating a high efficiency, high output transmission

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. A controller controls the shift actuator utilizing an actuating pulse and an opposing pulse.
