An internal combustion engine comprises includes a turbo-compound and the known Föttinger-coupling is replaced by a torsion vibration damper. The Föttinger-coupling, which is used to transmit power, has high losses in power when it is necessary to have a differential rotational speed between the input side and the output side, that is, the appearance of a slip. The losses are not used in a torsion vibration damper which has at least the same quality as a Föttinger-coupling.

A power train for a motor vehicle includes a combustion engine, a clutch or other torque-coupling device, a transmission, and an electro-mechanical energy converter that is operable at least as a motor and as a generator. The electro-mechanical energy converter is coupled to the output shaft of the combustion engine through a torque transfer device with at least two rpm ratios that automatically set themselves according to whether the vehicle is operating in a start-up mode or in a driving mode.

A hydrokinetic torque converter with a built-in bypass clutch is provided with an arrangement which regulates the cooling of the clutch at a rate dependent upon the slip between the coaxial driving and driven parts of the clutch, and hence upon the quantity of generated friction heat. The cooling unit for the driving and/or driven part of the clutch can employ, for example, one or more pumps; a supply of a substance which changes its aggregate state from liquid to gaseous or from solid to flowable in response to heating, and vice versa in response to cooling; one or more porous washers in the path for the flow of hydraulic fluid between the customary plenum chambers provided in the housing of the torque converter to move a piston of the driven part of the clutch into and from frictional engagement with the housing; and/or a system of recesses, grooves, channels and/or other passages serving to convey fluid between the chambers at a rate which is higher or highest when the clutch operates with maximum slip. Such rate can decrease to zero when the torque converter is idle or the clutch is fully engaged to operate without slip.

A device for hydraulic control of gas exchange valves of a reciprocating internal combustion engine which has slave cylinders in operative connection with one or more gas exchange valves and master actuators in operative connection with at least one cam provided with a basic and cam profile of a camshaft that is rotatably driven by the engine and can be hydraulically connected to the slave cylinders. The device also has a control device controlled by an actuating member, the device controlling the volume of hydraulic liquid fed to the slave cylinders, and at least one feed line, via which low pressure liquid from a pressure source can be fed to the device by means of at least one non-return valve. The actuators have displaceable vanes, a component carrying the vanes, and cells limited by walls. The vanes are in operative connection with the basic and cam profile of the cam.

A torsional vibration damper with at least two parts that are rotatable about an axis and can turn relative to each other against the opposition of at least one coil spring. Support shoes are provided between the spring and an outer wall of the damper structure and are arranged to slide along the outer wall with the spring as it undergoes compression and relaxation. The support shoes include roller bodies to reduce sliding friction between the support shoes and the outer wall.

In a vehicle with a gear-shift transmission of a kind that requires a torque-free state to shift gears, the riding comfort is improved by a method of shifting gears where a gear shift is preceded by the steps of: reducing the vehicle acceleration at a time t1 from an existing level (1) to a first acceleration level (3), maintaining the vehicle acceleration at the reduced level (3) for a predetermined time interval, and at the end point t3 of the predetermined time interval, reducing the acceleration further to a second acceleration level that is lower than the first level.
摘要:
A power train for a motor vehicle including an internal combustion engine, a power transmission, and an energy converter positioned between the engine and the transmission. A first clutch is positioned between the engine and the energy converter and a second clutch is positioned between the power transmission and the energy converter. The energy converter is operatively connected with at least one accessory for driving the accessory by energy derived either from the rotational motion of the engine crankshaft or from rotational motion transferred from the vehicle's drive wheels through the transmission.

A hydrokinetic torque converter for use with a transmission in the power train of a motor vehicle has a housing rotatable by the engine and containing a pump, a turbine and at least one stator as well as a rotary output device connected to the input shaft of the transmission. The pump is normally rotatable by the housing; the turbine is rotatable (a) by the fluid which is circulated by the pump or (b) by the housing in response to engagement of a lockup clutch; and the stator can be connected to the stationary case of the transmission or is rotatable by the circulating fluid. First and second hubs are non-rotatably but axially movably mounted on the output member and are respectively connectable with the turbine and the stator by suitable clutches. The hubs can move axially relative to the output device between several positions in one of which the turbine can drive the input element of the transmission in a forward direction, in another of which the stator can rotate the input element in a direction to drive the vehicle rearwardly, and in a third of which the transmission is in neutral gear.
