Transmission with shift drum, angular sensor outputting rotation of shift drum as output value and control unit correcting output value
A transmission includes a shift drum, an angular sensor, and a control unit. The control unit has reference values of the output values at a first rotation angle and a second rotation angle of the shift drum. The control unit is configured to obtain the output values at the first rotation angle and the second rotation angle as a first output value and a second output value, respectively. The control unit is configured to correct the output value output between the first rotation angle and the second rotation angle based on a difference between the first output value and the reference value at the first rotation angle and a difference between the second output value and the reference value at the second rotation angle.
Actuator for shift-by-wire system
An acuator for a shift-by-wire system includes a drive motor installed inside a motor housing, the drive motor having a drive shaft, and a decelerator inside a decelerator housing coupled with the motor housing, the decelerator coupled to the drive shaft. The decelerator includes a sun gear connected to a first side of an eccentric part of the drive shaft, a ring gear engaged with the sun gear and fixed to the decelerator housing, an output shaft connected to a second side of the eccentric part, a first bearing coupled to one side of the eccentric part and supporting the sun gear, a second bearing coupled to the other side of the eccentric part and supporting the output shaft, and a power delivery unit coupled to the sun gear and the output shaft in a center region between the first and second bearings.
Shift range switching system
A shift range switching system includes: a motor that includes motor windings and generates a cogging torque by a permanent magnet; drive circuits; an output shaft; a shift range switching mechanism that includes a trough providing member with troughs and crests and integrally rotates with the output shaft, an engagement member that fits in one trough corresponding to a shift range, and an urging member that urges the engagement member toward one trough; and a control unit with one calculation unit. The engagement member drops into one trough with an allowance. When an abnormality occurs in motor drive systems in an ascending action in which the engagement member moves from one trough toward one crest, the shift range switching systems avoids an occurrence of an intermediate range stop abnormality.
