CONTROL DEVICE FOR CLUTCH
A control device for a dutch, which is provided between an operating machine and a drive shaft of an engine, controls the operation of a valve member for opening and closing an oil supply hole through which an oil reservoir chamber and a torque transmission chamber communicate. The control device refers to a target rotational speed of a rotational solid of the operating machine and to the acquired rotational speed of the rotational solid of the operating machine, calculates a proportional manipulated variable based on the deviation between the angular acceleration of the rotational solid and a target angular acceleration, and controls the operation of the valve member on the basis of this calculated proportional manipulated variable.
Vehicle transmission device
A clutch disengagement position is detectable with high precision even during speed change. A vehicle transmission device can include a transmission including a main shaft to which rotational power from an engine is inputted via a clutch, and a countershaft, a clutch operation member that is driven by an actuator and performs disengaging and engaging operations of the clutch, and a driving wheel to which rotational power of the countershaft is transmitted via a driving force transmitting device. A damper member deformed by a driving force is provided in the countershaft, the driving force transmitting device or the driving wheel, or among the countershaft, the driving force transmitting device and the driving wheel. A control device learns a clutch disengagement operation amount when the control device detects deceleration of a predetermined value of the rotational frequency of the main shaft.
Method for operating a multi-axle drive device and corresponding multi-axle drive device

Vehicle transmission clutch engagement control system
A vehicle includes a transmission having a torque converter, an oncoming clutch, and a controller. The controller is programmed to, in response to a torque of the oncoming clutch exceeding an estimated average by a threshold during an engagement, increase the torque of the oncoming clutch via a feedforward command and adjust the torque of the oncoming clutch via a feedback command to compensate for deviations in the torque generated by the feedforward command during the engagement.
