A method of correcting an angular transmission error for a reducer of creating correction data for correction of an angular transmission error of the reducer in a robot system including an arm, the reducer having an input shaft and an output shaft, a motor, an encoder, and an inertial sensor, includes rotating the arm in an input rotation angular range smaller than a necessary input rotation angular range, measuring and recording the angular transmission error, determining whether or not an accumulated value of measurement times is equal to or larger than a predetermined value, when the accumulated value is smaller than the predetermined value, measuring the angular transmission error of the reducer and updating a record, and, when the accumulated value is equal to or larger than the predetermined value, creating the correction data based on the recorded angular transmission error of the reducer.

A vehicle includes an engine and a transmission having an input shaft operably coupled to the engine, an output shaft operably coupled to wheels of the vehicle, a primary pump, and a secondary pump. The primary and secondary pumps are each configured to supply pressurized fluid to a valve body of the transmission. A controller is programmed to, in response to a loss of pressure of the primary pump and a speed of the output shaft exceeding a first threshold, shift the transmission to a neutral state, energize the secondary pump once the transmission is in the neutral state, and command the engine to idle speed.

The disclosure provides a control method, a control device for vehicular automatic transmission, and a recording medium. The control device includes an ON/OFF control solenoid controlling LC to either ON or OFF, and an LC pressure control linear solenoid controlling LC pressure between a released state and a fully engaged state. The control device acquires, when an accelerator pedal opening of a vehicle is on a deceleration side in a fully closed state, a torque converter slip ratio when the ON/OFF control solenoid maintains ON for a predetermined time period and the LC pressure control linear solenoid is controlled such that the LC pressure is OFF, and determines whether or not the second solenoid has a high-pressure fixation failure according to whether or not the slip ratio is within a predetermined range from a slip reference value.

A method for determining an actuating-travel range between two shift-element halves of a form-locking shift element (A, F) during an engagement of the shift element (A, F) and in the presence of a tooth-on-tooth position between the two shift-element halves is provided. An actuating movement of the at least one movable shift-element half with respect to the other shift-element half is monitored by a sensor. A tooth-on-tooth position is detected when it is determined, by the sensor, within an actuating-travel range of the at least one movable shift-element half between a disengaged condition and an engaged condition of the shift element, that the actuating movement of the movable shift-element half in the engagement direction is zero. A ratio between an engagement force applied at the shift element and a radial force acting on the shift-element halves is within a value range, which facilitates a tooth-on-tooth position and an actuating movement of the shift-element half in the engagement direction is detected by the sensor after the reduction of the engagement force and/or after an increase of the applied torque.

A control device for a lock-up clutch includes a control unit, an abnormality determination unit, a release control unit and a prohibition unit. The control unit is configured to control an engagement state of a lock-up clutch, and to perform a slip lock-up control by performing a feedback control of an engagement hydraulic pressure to be a first slip amount during coasting. The abnormality determination unit is configured to determine an abnormality when a state continues with a slip amount being equal to or greater than a second slip amount. The release control unit is configured to release the lock-up clutch when the abnormality is determined. The prohibition unit is configured to allow the control unit to raise the engagement hydraulic pressure by a prescribed pressure, and to prohibit determination by the abnormality determination unit, when the transmission ratio is downshifted during coasting while the slip lock-up control is performed.

A control device for an automatic transmission includes: a failure diagnosis section for diagnosing whether or not a failure has occurred in a shift control system of the automatic transmission; a fail-safe control section for fixing the automatic transmission into a predetermined gear position in response to confirmation of the failure of the shift control system of the automatic transmission; and an oil temperature rise regulation torque reduction control section for outputting a torque reduction request to suppress torque of a vehicle driving source, based on temperature of transmission operating oil of the automatic transmission, and outputting the torque reduction request in response to satisfaction of an oil temperature condition that is set lower in oil temperature when the automatic transmission is fixed in a first gear position by the fail-safe control section than when the automatic transmission is not fixed in the first gear position.

A vehicle control device controls a vehicle control system, which includes a shift range switching system configured to switch a shift range by controlling a drive of a shift actuator, and an electric brake system configured to brake a vehicle by controlling a drive of a brake actuator. The vehicle control device includes a drive control unit, an abnormality monitoring unit, and a presence determination unit. The drive control unit controls a drive of a shift actuator. The abnormality monitoring unit monitors an abnormality of the shift range switching system. The presence determination unit determines whether the driver is in the driver's seat. When the abnormality of the range mismatch, which the actual shift range does not match the target shift range in a state where the driver is absent, the vehicle control device executes the fail safe process different from the fail safe process when the driver is present.

A transmission includes an input shaft that couples to a prime mover, twin countershafts and a main shaft having gears coupled thereon, an output shaft that selectively provides a torque output to a driveline, a first shift actuator that selectively couples the input shaft to the main shaft. The transmission includes a second shift actuator that couples the main shaft to the output shaft with a selected reduction ratio, and a controller including a vehicle state circuit that interprets at least one vehicle operating condition, and a neutral enforcement circuit that provides a first neutral command to the first shift actuator and a second neutral command to the second shift actuator, in response to the at least one vehicle operating condition indicating that vehicle motion is not intended.
