Vehicular transmission device
A transmission device of a vehicle that can use a manual transmission. The transmission is provided with shift blocks for regulating shifting between gear positions so as to achieve automatic gear shifting. This vehicle transmission device includes the shift block for a reverse-1st speed, a 4th speed-5th speed, a 2nd speed-3rd speed, and a 6th speed arranged in this order in a selection operation direction. The vehicle transmission device also includes first through fourth shift levers that engage respectively with the shift blocks, a first select actuator that moves the first or second shift lever for a select operation, a first shift actuator that moves the first or second shift lever for a shift operation, a second select actuator that moves the third or fourth shift lever for the select operation, and a second shift actuator that moves the third or fourth shift lever for the shift operation.
Smart touch type electronic auto shift lever
An electronic auto shift lever, and more particularly, a smart touch type electronic auto shift lever configures a shift operating unit of the auto shift lever. The auto shift lever includes a touch screen and provides a predetermined shift pattern to a user to perform a shift operation by an input through the touch screen, in which the user is allowed to arbitrarily change the shift pattern to provide various shift patterns corresponding to a user's taste, in an auto shift lever of an automatic transmission vehicle.
Bicycle component operating apparatus
A bicycle component operating apparatus is basically provided with a controller. The controller is configured to electrically adjust an input position of at least one operating member for starting operation of at least one bicycle component.
Shift-by-wire selector control system for a motor vehicle transmission
A method for operating a multi-stable shift-by wire selector control system of a motor vehicle transmission. The multi-stable shift-by wire selector control system includes a multi-stable selector which is operable by the driver of the vehicle to select a respective one of the operating modes of the transmission, an arrangement of illuminated labels indicating the selector mode and an indexing mechanism for maintaining the immobilization of the selector in its different positions.
METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A TRANSMISSION OF A MOTOR VEHICLE
A method for controlling a motor vehicle transmission (11) is disclosed in which a sensor (18) used to produce an indication of position of a selector (17) is calibrated such that positioning the selector (17) at a peak force feedback position produced by a peak and trough force feedback mechanism (24) connected to the selector (17) will always result in the selection of a drive mode of the transmission (11).
Gear-shift lever module
A gear-shift lever module with various sensors integrated on one circuit board may include a module housing, the integrated circuit board disposed in the module housing, a position sensor, a manual mode switch and a connector. The position sensor senses a shift position of a gear-shift lever and is disposed on the integrated circuit board at a position corresponding to a hinge portion at a lower end of the gear-shift lever. The manual mode switch is disposed on the integrated circuit board at a position corresponding to a manual mode of the gear-shift lever and senses the manual mode by being pressed by the gear-shift lever when the gear-shift lever is positioned for the manual mode. The connector is electrically connected with the position sensor and the manual mode switch.
Sliding operation type electronic auto shift lever
A sliding operation type electronic auto shift lever may include a console part disposed on a console of a vehicle, provided with a quadrangular recess, and provided with a slot portion dented inside the quadrangular recess, and a lever part slidably coupled to an upper portion of the quadrangular recess, wherein the lever part includes a magnetic lever pin part, which protrudes downwardly and includes a magnet, on a lower surface thereof, and the magnetic lever pin part is inserted into the slot portion.
Shifting range sensing apparatus
A shifting range sensing system, may include a shift lever pivotally connected to a vehicle body, a shift range sensing apparatus to sense a pivotal movement of the shift lever, an inhibitor switch mounted in a transmission, and a controller taking an emergency measure when a signal of the inhibitor switch and a signal of the shifting range sensing apparatus do not indicate the same shifting range.
Electronic shifting systems and methods
The invention provides a wireless control system for a bicycle, including at least one shift actuator generating an input signal when actuated and a master control unit transmitting a shift signal responsive to the input signal. At least one electromechanical gear changer is provided and includes a gear changer control unit. The gear changer control unit receives the shift signal from the master control unit and controls the at least one electromechanical gear changer corresponding to the received shift signal. The gear changer control unit listens for the shift signal during a part of an awake mode cycle time, the master control unit transmitting the shift signal for a message duration time which is greater than the awake mode cycle time.
ELECTROMECHANICAL SHIFTING SYSTEMS AND METHODS
The invention provides a wireless control system for a bicycle, including at least one actuator having at least a pressed state and a released state, and a control unit configured to generate a first control signal responsive to the pressed state and a second control signal responsive to the released state, and to transmit the first control signal and the second control signal to at least one bicycle component.
