A method for operating a drivetrain of a motor vehicle including at least one drive motor, a transmission device and at least one wheel which can be driven by the drive motor via the transmission device, in which respective actuations of respective shifting elements of the transmission device are brought about in order to influence thereby a transfer of a torque provided by the drive motor from the drive motor to the wheel via the transmission device, whereinthe torque provided by the drive motor is set as a function of a transfer function which indicates a factor by which the torque is to be multiplied, in order to calculate a wheel torque resulting from the torque and from the transfer and acting on the wheel.

A rotational angle sensor detects the rotational position of a motor and outputs a motor rotational angle signal corresponding to the rotational position of the motor. An output shaft sensor detects a change in the magnetic field of a target that rotates integrally with an output shaft to which the rotation of the motor is transmitted, and outputs an output shaft signal according to the rotational position of the output shaft. A shift range control unit includes a motor control unit.

A hydraulic work machine is provided in which left and right hydraulic motors are driven independently of each other by two hydraulic pumps and in which an anomaly of any of the left and right track devices can be detected with high accuracy. The hydraulic work machine includes a first pressure sensor 13 configured to detect a first pump pressure that is a delivery pressure of a first hydraulic pump 11 and a second pressure sensor 23 configured to detect a second pump pressure that is a delivery pressure of a second hydraulic pump 21. When a controller 2 decides, from detection results of a travel operation detector 5 and work operation detectors 3 and 4, that a work implement 103 is not operated but travel operation devices 6 and 7 are operated and besides left and right track devices 50 and 60 are straightly traveling, the controller 2 calculates an anomaly decision evaluation value based on a pressure difference value obtained by subtracting one from the other of the first pump pressure and the second pump pressure and decides, based on a result of comparison between the anomaly decision evaluation value and a predetermined decision reference value 84, that one of the left and right track devices has an anomaly.

A method for controlling a motor vehicle having at least one park lock. A drive train of the motor vehicle has a drive motor, wheel, and a transmission. An operating element actuates the park lock, which can assume a blocking position, in which the park lock blocks the drive train and/or a part of the drive train, and a release position. After actuation of the operating element, the park lock is switched from the release position into the blocking position (or vice versa). Here, the speed of the motor vehicle is determined. After actuation of the operating element and if the park lock assumes the release position beforehand, it is checked whether the speed is greater than a predefined first threshold value. If this check was successful, a first warning signal is produced; and the switching of the park lock into the blocking position is performed.

The present invention relates to a method for determining an operative shift configuration of a drive mechanism (1) of a gearbox (G) of a saddle-ride type vehicle (4). In particular, this method is applied to a drive mechanism (1) comprising a pedal shift lever (12) and a quick-shifter device (5) that connects, directly or indirectly, the lever to the gearbox, where this device includes a rod (10) and first sensor means (SM0, SM1-SM2) that detect the variation of the tension state of said rod (10) following a gear shifting. The method according to the invention includes acquiring a first signal (S1) generated by said first sensor means and determining, based on said first signal, whether the rod is in a traction tension state or in a compression tension state. The method also includes acquiring at least a second signal (S2) generated by second sensor means (SM3) and determining, based on this second signal (S2), the gear engaged following said gear shifting and/or the direction of said gear shifting. Finally, the method includes determining the operative shift configuration of the drive mechanism based on the tension state determined in the step B) and the gear engaged and/or based on the direction of said gear shifting determined in the step D).

The present disclosure provides a method for preventing interlock of a transmission. The method may include: sensing, with a controller, target currents of a plurality of solenoid valves, where each solenoid valve of the plurality of solenoid valves is connected to corresponding friction element; and when it is determined that target currents of at least two solenoid valves of the plurality of solenoid valves are equal to or greater than a predetermined current, interrupting, with the controller, a supply of power to the plurality of solenoid valves based on a degree of deviation of an actual speed of a transmission output shaft from a target speed for a predetermined time.

A straddled vehicle includes a gear position sensor abnormality detector which is configured to detect an abnormality of a gear position sensor which is provided at a crankshaft-supporter-integrated transmission supporter. The gear position sensor abnormality detector determines that the gear position sensor has an abnormality when the shift of a straddled vehicle from a stopped state to a running state is detected based on a signal from a rotation speed sensor while the gear position detected by the gear position sensor is included in a high-speed gear position class. Furthermore, the gear position sensor abnormality detector determines that the gear position sensor has an abnormality when the gear position detected by the gear position sensor is included in a low-speed gear position class and is different from a gear position estimated based on a signal from a crankshaft sensor and a signal from the rotation speed sensor.

There is provided a shift control system for a saddle-type vehicle. A gear shift lever is configured to be operated by a driver. A gearshift sensor is configured to detect an operation on the gear shift lever. A shift cam is configured to rotate according to the operation on the gear shift lever. A gear position sensor is configured to detect a rotation angle of the shift cam. In the case where the gearshift sensor does not detect a detection result according to a detection result of the gear position sensor, or in the case where the gear position sensor does not detect a detection result according to a detection result of the gearshift sensor, a control device determines abnormality occurrence, and stops engine operation control based on the detection results of the gearshift sensor and the gear position sensor on the basis of the abnormality occurrence.

A continuously variable powertrain device for a work vehicle includes a continuously variable transmission to output a continuously shifted motive power while continuously varying a speed of a motive power received from an engine, a planetary transmission to receive the motive power from the engine and the continuously shifted motive power and to output a compound motive power, a planetary clutch to switch a shift level of the planetary transmission a forward-reverse direction switch to receive the compound motive power and to output either a forward motive power or a reverse motive power, rotation detectors, and a powertrain controller.

A pressure sensor rationality diagnostic for a dual clutch transmission includes a series of sensor tests. One such test includes charging an oil accumulator to a maximum pressure and storing the maximum pressure value. After performing a discharge pressure event and measuring the pressure value, the difference between the max pressure value and the discharge pressure value is calculated to determine if the difference is less than a predetermined threshold. If the difference is less than the predetermined threshold then at least one remedial action is performed which may include a driver alert or default charging mode. Additionally, similar sensor tests are performed to determine if faults exists and, if true, at least one remedial action is performed.
