A hydraulic actuation device for a motor vehicle friction clutch has a manually actuatable master cylinder, that has a master pressure chamber which, in a rest position, is fluidically connected to a reservoir. The master cylinder is connected to a slave arrangement that is functionally connected to the motor vehicle friction clutch. A pressure line connects the master pressure chamber to the slave arrangement and in which incorporates an electrically actuatable valve arrangement with an electrically actuatable proportional valve and, connected in parallel, a first check valve which blocks in the direction of the master pressure chamber. A motor pump is connected, on the input side, to the reservoir and can be connected, on the output side, to the pressure line between the valve arrangement and the slave pressure chamber through a second check valve that blocks in the direction of the motor pump.

A transmission changes gears in a MT system, an AT system, and an AMT system wherein unintended transition between an AT mode and a MT mode or between an AMT mode and a MT mode is prevented. A selector in a controller performs a mode selection control such that, when performing transition between the AT mode and the MT mode or between the AMT mode and the MT mode, the driver at least has to operate a mode switching switch while operating a clutch lever in an operation amount not smaller than a predetermined threshold.

This clutch control device includes an engine (13), a transmission gear (21), a clutch device (26), a clutch actuator (50), a control unit (60), a clutch operator (4b), and a clutch operation amount sensor (4c), wherein the control unit (60) is configured to enable intervention of a manual clutch operation according to the clutch operator (4b) during automatic control of the clutch device (26) according to the clutch actuator (50), and the control unit (60) is configured to set a control target value of a clutch capacity to a connection lower limit target value (Px) acquired by changing an operation target value (Pv) corresponding to an amount of operation of the clutch operator (4b) to a clutch disconnection side in a case in which the amount of operation of the clutch operator (4b) based on an output value of the clutch operation amount sensor (4c) reaches a predetermined value (θ2) set in advance at a time of performing a clutch disconnection operation through the intervention of the manual clutch operation.

A clutch control device includes an ECU that controls a clutch actuator, the ECU sets a control target value of the clutch capacity according to the operation amount detected by the clutch operation amount sensor, and executes feedback control so that the control parameter which is detected by the control parameter sensor approaches the control target value, and changes a method of the feedback control when the control parameter reaches a predetermined control state change determination value during the feedback control.

A clutch control device includes a clutch device that disconnects and connects a power transmission between an engine and a gearbox, a clutch actuator that drives the clutch device and changes a clutch capacity, an ECU that calculates a control target value of the clutch capacity, a clutch lever that manually operates the clutch device, and a clutch lever operation amount sensor that converts an operation amount of the clutch lever into an electrical signal, wherein the ECU calculates a clutch operation speed on the basis of the operation amount detected by the clutch lever operation amount sensor, and changes a disconnection and connection speed of the clutch device according to the clutch operation speed.

A power transmission device for a vehicle includes a control unit adapted to automatically control engagement or disengagement of a clutch, and is further equipped with a clutch lever for manually engaging or disengaging the clutch. The power transmission device includes a manual mode in which the clutch is engaged or disengaged by a driver performing an engagement or disengagement operation with the clutch engagement/disengagement operating element and an automatic mode in which the clutch is engaged or disengaged under the control of the control unit without the driver performing the engagement or disengagement operation. The manual mode or the automatic mode is selectable by the driver. In the manual mode, it is further possible to select a plurality of control modes with differing levels of intervention of the automatic control.

A powertrain including a prime mover and an electronically controllable clutch. The powertrain structured selectably engages the clutch to provide power from the prime mover to drive one or more ground contacting wheels and to selectably disengage the clutch to decouple with one or more ground contacting wheels. The electronic control system operatively communicates with the prime mover and the electronically controllable clutch, and uses a predictive cruise control (PCC) controller and an idle coast management (ICM) controller, to control vehicle speed during concurrent operation of the PCC controller and the ICM controller.

A clutch control device includes a clutch apparatus (26) configured to connect and disconnect power transmission between a prime mover (13) and an output object (21), a clutch actuator (50) configured to output a driving force for actuating the clutch apparatus (26), a controller (40) configured to control driving of the clutch actuator (50), and a clutch operator configured to operate the clutch apparatus (26) regardless of the driving of the clutch actuator (50), the controller (40) detects that there is a manual operation by the clutch operator when a difference of a predetermined value or more is detected between a reference output value of the clutch actuator (50) configured to operate the clutch apparatus (26) and a measured value of an output value of the clutch actuator (50).
