    摘要: A CVT is provided with a primary pulley (1) and a secondary pulley (2) between which a belt (3) is wound, and hydraulic pressure control valves (5, 6, 7) which control pulley hydraulic pressures. A CVT controller (8) sets a base current indicated value to be output to solenoids (5a, 6a, 7a) of the hydraulic pressure control valves (5, 6, 7), on the basis of a pulley hydraulic pressure indicated value. A dither control unit (58) of the CVT controller (8) superimposes a dither current onto the base current indicated value to be output to the solenoids (5a, 6a, 7a) if, during pulley hydraulic pressure control, the situation is determined, on the basis of belt slip determination information, to be such that belt slipping is highly likely to occur.

    摘要: A vehicle has an engine (1) as a driving source. Output rotation of the engine (1) is transmitted to driving wheels (7) through a torque converter (2) equipped with a lock-up clutch, a first gear train (3), a transmission (4) formed by combination of a variator (20) and an auxiliary transmission (30), a second gear train (5) and a final speed reduction device (6). The second gear train (5) is provided with a parking mechanism (8) that mechanically locks an output shaft of the transmission (4) so that the output shaft of the transmission (4) cannot rotate during parking of the vehicle. A shift speed when down-shift is performed by the variator (20) during a torque-down request to the engine (1) is set to be slower than a shift speed when down-shift is performed by the variator (20) during a non-torque-down request.

    摘要: A slip lock-up control device for a vehicle includes a torque converter having a lock-up clutch, and a slip lock-up controller. The slip lock-up controller performs slip lock-up control using a lock-up pressure difference command to match an actual slip rotational speed to a target slip rotational speed based on engine torque information indicative of input torque, when a lock-up engagement condition is fulfilled when the lock-up clutch is in a released state. During the slip lock-up control, when in an engine torque unstable range for which an engine torque has a rise gradient with respect to a rise change of an engine speed, the slip lock-up controller sets the lock-up pressure difference command to a second lock-up pressure difference command for which a pressure difference fluctuation is averaged more than a first lock-up pressure difference command used in a range other than the engine torque unstable range.

    摘要: In a transmission control device for controlling a transmission, a controller determines failure of a SOL corresponding to a hydraulic primary-pressure actuator. The controller variably controls line command pressure, and in a case where the failure is determined, continuously changes a speed ratio of a variator by variably controlling the line command pressure. The controller variably controls primary command pressure, and in a case where the failure is determined, fixes the primary command pressure to a primary pressure set value. The controller variably controls secondary command pressure, and in a case where the failure is determined, fixes the secondary command pressure to a secondary pressure set value.

    摘要: In a transmission control device, a controller determines failure of a rotation sensor. A hydraulic control circuit and the controller variably control a speed ratio of a variator. The hydraulic control circuit and the controller variably control a gear position of a sub-transmission mechanism, and in a case where the failure is determined, fix the gear position of the sub-transmission mechanism to first speed. The hydraulic control circuit and the controller fix the gear position of the sub-transmission mechanism to the first speed during a vehicle stop in a case where the gear position of the sub-transmission mechanism upon a determination of the failure is second speed.

    摘要: Selection solenoid valve (75) controls engagement/disengagement of travel clutch (31, 32) in synchronization with a selecting operation of selector lever (90) that selects a range position of belt-type continuously variable transmission (CVT). Selection solenoid valve abnormality diagnosing unit (Sa) is configured to, when performing a selecting operation from no-drive range to drive range, if a time required for travel clutch (31, 32) to be judged to be engaged from a start of selection of the drive range is less than a predetermined time, judge selection solenoid valve (75) to be a maximum hydraulic pressure side abnormality. When performing the selecting operation of drive range→no-drive range→drive range, if a selecting operation speed condition indicating that a no-drive range selection time is shorter than a setting time (Tth) is satisfied, execution of abnormality diagnosis of selection solenoid valve (75) is not permitted. With this configuration, misjudgment is prevented.
