Title:
連続可変変速機
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP6926379
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
The invention is concerned with control of a continuously variable vehicle transmission. The transmission in question is to have a variator (10) which is coupled between a rotary transmission input (32) and a rotary transmission output (46), to provide continuous variation in a transmission dive ratio, via a launch device such as a clutch (62; 68). The variator and the launch device are constructed and arranged to exert a required torque, defined by an input signal. In accordance with the invention, the same control signal is used to control both the variator torque and the torque capacity of the launch device. In such an arrangement, vehicle launch (i.e. moving away from rest) can be controlled in a straightforward manner by progressively raising the relevant control signal, preferably a hydraulic pressure signal. Further independent claims are including for applying traction load to races (20, 22) of the variator and for a method setting torque of the launch device (62; 68) higher than torque of the variator (10).
