A shift range control device switches a shift range by controlling driving of a motor. A learning unit learns, as a position correction value, a normal state time correction value calculated based on first and/or second reference angles when an output shaft signal is available when turning on of a start switch. The first reference angle is a motor angle when the output shaft signal changes in response to the rotation of the motor in a first direction. The second reference angle is the motor angle when the output shaft signal changes in response to the motor rotation in a second direction opposite to the first direction. A motor angle target value is set by using the normal state time correction value stored during a period from when all the output shaft signals are determined to be unavailable to when the start switch is turned off.

A mechanical creeper mode selection system for a transmission of a work vehicle is provided, in which the transmission includes one or more range modes having one or more range mode shift mechanisms each driven by an electrohydraulic circuit. The system includes a creeper mode selection lever movable by an operator to select a creeper gear range. The system also includes a sensor that observes a position of the creeper mode selection lever and generates sensor signals based thereon. The system includes a controller that processes the sensor data to determine a movement of the creeper mode selection lever and outputs one or more control signals to the electrohydraulic circuit to position the one or more range mode shift mechanisms in a range neutral mode based on the movement of the creeper mode selection lever.

An operation device for a vehicle transmission is configured to include: a base bracket that is fixed to a vehicle body of a vehicle; a slider lever that is slidably supported by the base bracket and includes a shift knob; and a main gear, which is rotatably supported by the base bracket and includes gear teeth at an outer circumferential portion, to which an end portion of a shift wire of the vehicle transmission is connected at a position separated from a gear support shaft of the base bracket, the slider lever including a rack gear that is formed along a sliding direction of the slider lever and is engaged with the gear teeth of the main gear, and gear change of the transmission being performed by causing the main gear to rotate with sliding of the slider lever and pushing and pulling the shift wire.

The invention relates to a method, performed by a control device, for driving at least one power consumer connected to a powertrain of a vehicle. The at least one propulsion unit comprises a first electrical machine and a second electrical machine, wherein the first electrical machine is connected to a first main shaft and the second electrical machine is connected to a second main shaft. A connection shaft is connected to the first electrical machine; and the at least one power consumer comprises a first power consumer connected to the first main shaft and/or a second power consumer connected to the connection shaft. The method comprising: controlling the powertrain to provide uninterrupted propelling torque on the first main shaft and/or on the connection shaft during a stand still condition of the output shaft of the gearbox and/or during a transition from a stand still condition to a rotational condition of the output shaft of the gearbox, and/or during gear shifting from one gear to another gear in the gearbox. The invention also relates to a vehicle comprising a powertrain, a computer program and a computer-readable medium.

This transmission device includes a mode changeover switch (59) on which a mode changeover operation between a manual mode (M2) and an automated mode (M1) is externally performed, other operation unit (80) on which a predetermined shift operation is externally performed separately from the mode changeover switch (59), and a control unit (60) configured to control a mode changeover between the manual mode (M2) and the automated mode (M1). The control unit (60) executes the mode changeover between the manual mode (M2) and the automated mode (M1) on the basis of the mode changeover operation on the mode changeover switch (59). When the shift operation on the other operation unit (80) has been performed, the control unit (60) executes the mode changeover between the manual mode (M2) and the automated mode (M1).

Methods and system are described for changing a driveline gear range from a higher gear range to a lower gear range. The driveline may include two electric machines and four clutches in a four wheel drive configuration. The methods and systems permit a driveline to change from a higher gear range to a lower gear range without stopping a vehicle.

In a vehicle including a shift-by-wire (SBW) transmission which may be parked in the neutral gear position of the transmission, method for controlling parking thereof includes determining whether the vehicle is in a situation in which neutral parking is required according to sensor information, when the vehicle is stopped, outputting first information configured to get a confirmation on whether a driver intends to perform the neutral parking from the driver, when the controller concludes that the vehicle is in the situation in which the neutral parking is required and when a park (P) gear position is input or an ignition of the vehicle is turned off, and controlling the SBW transmission to shift to a neutral (N) gear position, when there is an agreement input as a response to the first information.

Methods and systems for a hydromechanical transmission in a vehicle are provided herein. In one example, the transmission system includes a hydrostatic assembly with a hydraulic pump in fluidic communication with a hydraulic motor. The transmission system further includes a controller configured to selectively transition between a torque control mode and a speed control mode of the hydrostatic assembly while the vehicle is on a slope.

A shift range control apparatus controls a shift range switching system that switches shift ranges by controlling driving of a motor. This control apparatus calculates a motor angle based on a motor rotation angle signal, acquires an output shaft signal based on a rotation position of an output shaft from an output shaft sensor, sets a target rotation angle based on a target shift range and the output shaft signal, and controls driving of the motor such that the motor angle becomes the target rotation angle. The control apparatus sets the target rotation angle to a target limit value, in response to the target rotation angle that is set based on the output shaft signal being a value at which rotation occurs that is further toward a back side in a rotation direction than the target limit value that is set based on shift ranges before and after switching.

A system is provided for controlling engine fueling and includes an internal combustion engine, a fuel source, means for delivering fuel from the fuel source to the engine, and a controller configured to control the fuel delivering means according to a first operational mode so that, upon attaining a predetermined operational state of the engine, an amount of fuel delivered to the engine per unit time is kept constant. The system will typically but not necessarily be provided in a vehicle such as a truck or a passenger automobile. A method for controlling engine fueling is also provided.
