Methods and system for controlling engine stop position

A method and system for controlling a stop rotation position of an engine is described. In one example, the system includes an integrated starter/generator that may be selectively coupled to the engine. The integrated starter/generator may rotate the engine in a first direction (e.g., reverse direction) or a second direction (e.g., a forward direction) in response to a position at which the engine stops rotating following cessation of combustion in the engine.

Control method for ISG of vehicle provided with manual transmission and vehicle of which the control method is applied

A control method of controlling an idle stop-and-go (ISG) function of a vehicle provided with a manual transmission includes: determining, by a controller, whether an ISG function activation condition is satisfied based on vehicle running state information of the vehicle; stopping an engine, by the controller, when the ISG activation condition is satisfied; determining, by the controller, whether a first starting condition in which a shift stage of the manual transmission is a neutral stage is satisfied; determining, by the controller, whether a second starting condition in which a shift stage of the manual transmission is a driving stage is satisfied; and restarting, by the controller, the engine when the first starting condition or the second starting condition is satisfied. The vehicle running state information includes: an operation information of the manual transmission and a clutch pedal, and current and recorded vehicle speeds of the vehicle.

HIGH TORQUE BRAKING SYSTEM
20230391335 · 2023-12-07 ·

A method of automatically activating a high-torque braking system in a heavy-duty vehicle configured to operate in at least one low speed, high torque mode and at least one higher speed, lower torque mode is disclosed. The method includes determining a speed-controller device such as a joystick or lever of the vehicle is in a first position which results in the vehicle travelling in a higher-speed, lower-torque mode, and, responsive to detecting braking and a change in position of the speed-controller from the first position to a second, neutral, position, activating a low-speed high torque mode of operation for braking the vehicle.

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. An integrated actuator housing includes a single external power access for the shift actuator. A controller interprets a shaft displacement angle, determines if the transmission is in an imminent zero or zero torque region, and performs a transmission operation in response to the transmission in the imminent zero or zero torque region.
