A flywheel with a torsional damper having two kinds of spring mechanisms, one spring mechanism directly connecting driving and driven side flywheels and the other spring mechanism connecting the driviing and driven side flywheels via a friction mechanism. By this arrangement, the flywheel has two vibrational characteristics between which vibrational operation of the flywheel can shift depending on whether the friction mechanism slides. The flywheel can pass through its resonance speed by shifting its operation from one vibrational characteristic to the other without being accompanied by a large amplification of vibration. In addition, since sliding at the friction mechanism occurs only briefly, a good damping effect can be obtained at the usual range of engine operating speeds unlike a prior art flywheel with a continuously sliding hysteresis mechanism.

A hydraulic pressure control device for an automatic transmission for a vehicle, including a first, a second and a third hydraulic pressure control valve, wherein the third hydraulic pressure control valve cooperates with the first hydraulic pressure control valve to control switching over of a certain operation of the automatic transmission such as engagement and disengagement of a torque converter lock-up clutch during forward traveling of the vehicle, and also cooperates with the second hydraulic pressure control valve to selectively prevent setting up of the reverse stage when a manual shift valve is set to the reverse range while the vehicle is traveling forward.

摘要:
In a four wheel drive vehicle, wherein either a state where differential action between front wheels and rear wheels is restricted or a permitted state can be selected, the differential rate is calculated during stable running conditions, and, when the differential rate is greater than or equal to a predetermined value, the restriction of differential action is prohibited. As a result, power circulation can be prevented when there is a difference in effective radius between the front wheels and rear wheels due to, e.g., use of a temper tire, mounting of chains on the tires, or the like.
摘要:
A hydraulic control apparatus for controlling a hydraulically-operated power transmitting system for an automotive vehicle, the transmitting system having a continuously variable transmission and an auxiliary transmission coupled to an output side of the continuously variable transmission. The controlling apparatus comprises a first pressure generator for generating a first line pressure used to operate the continuously variable transmission, and a second pressure generator for generating a second line pressure used to operate a frictional coupling assembly incorporated in the auxiliary transmission.
摘要:
A diagnostic apparatus for a continuously variable transmission the speed ratio and/or the rate of variation in the speed ratio of which are controlled by a shift-regulating device controlled by command signals from a control system. The diagnostic apparatus, which checks if the speed ratio is normally controlled, comprises: a detecting device for detecting an actual speed ratio and/or an actual rate of variation in the speed ratio; a memory storing data for determining normal ranges of the speed ratio and/or normal ranges of the rate of variation in the speed ratio, the normal ranges corresponding to shifting conditions of the transmission which are established by the shift-regulating device according to the command signals; and a judging device for selecting one of the normal ranges of the speed ratio, and/or one of the normal ranges of the rate of variation in the speed ratio, based on the command signals, the judging device checking whether the detected actual speed ratio and/or the detected actual rate of variation in the speed ratio fall within the selected normal ranges.
摘要:
A hydraulic control apparatus for controlling a hydraulically-operated power transmitting system for an automotive vehicle, the power transmitting system including a continuously variable transmission and an auxiliary transmission coupled to the continuously variable transmission. The auxiliary transmission has a first and a second forward-drive position relating to a high and a low speed range, respectively, which high and low speed ranges are selected by an operator controlled shift lever. The hydraulic control apparatus comprises a shift valve controlled by an electric control signal so as to be placed selectively in one of a high-range position and a low-range position to place the auxiliary transmission in the first and second forward-drive positions, respectively. The control apparatus further comprise a lock device for holding the shift valve in the high-range position, irrespective of the electric control signal, while the high speed range is selected by the shift lever.
