摘要:
A pressure regulator valve has a valve spool slidably disposed in a valve bore to control the pressure in a hydraulic passage by exhausting excess fluid delivered to the passage. The valve also has a restricted passage which supplies fluid from a main inlet passage to the controlled fluid passage continuously. The restricted passage reduces the amount of valve spool movement required during normal pressure regulation.

A control system is provided for selectively actuating a dual area apply piston having first and second piston areas each selectively biased by hydraulic pressure within a respective first and second fill cavities. The control system includes a pressure regulator valve, a dual area activation valve, and a solenoid valve operable to selectively and variable operate the pressure regulator valve to effect biasing of the first and second piston areas by communicating hydraulic pressure to the first fill cavity and/or the second fill cavity.

A pressure regulator valve is provided having a valve spool slidably disposed within a stepped bore defined by a valve body. A first pressure responsive surface area is defined on the valve spool and is subject to pressurized fluid from a main pressure source. A second pressure responsive surface area is defined on the valve spool and is subject to pressurized fluid from a control source. Additionally, a third pressure responsive surface area is defined on the valve spool and is selectively subject to pressurized fluid from one of the main pressure source and the control source. A sleeve is slidably disposed within the stepped bore, the sleeve being operable to selectively distribute pressurized fluid from one of the main pressure source and the control source to the third pressure responsive surface area to effect a change in pressure gain of the pressure regulator valve.

An electro-hydraulic control mechanism for use with a multi-speed transmission includes a pair of logic valves, which are manipulated during the ratio interchanges and the ratio establishment by aiding in the distribution of fluid pressure from a plurality of trim valves. The logic valves are retained in specific drive ranges in the event of electrical discontinuance.

A transmission has alignment and assembly assisting structures for controlling the assembly of a valve body and separator plate with a transmission housing within a family of transmissions. The alignment and assembly assisting structures generally include tabs and locator surfaces, as well as pin locators which prevent a component or subassembly of one family member from being assembled with a different family member.

An accumulator and relay valve is operable to isolate a fluid operated electric switch from the transient pressure pulses present at the output of a pulse-width-modulated pressure control valve. The accumulator and relay valve is further operable to control a minimum pressure level that is communicated from the pressure control valve to the switch.

摘要:
Power transmissions incorporate gear ratios including a plurality of forward ratios, a neutral condition and at least one reverse ratio. The establishment of each ratio is controlled by selectively engageable hydraulically operated friction devices, such as clutches and brakes. The interchange between forward ratios is controlled by the interchange of at least one friction device. The control elements to accomplish the establishment and interchange of the ratios include a pressure source, shift valve, solenoid control valves and pressure control valves. The solenoid valves are electrically actuated and the hydraulic portion of the control includes elements that permit continued operation of the transmission in selected ratios in the event of electrical discontinuance. Also provided within the hydraulic control is a pressure knockdown or pressure reducing valve element which operates with one of the shift valves to establish a maximum pressure level in the forward ratios that is less than the maximum pressure level in the reverse ratio.

摘要:
A transmission control has a plurality of solenoid controlled hydraulic valves that are selectively operable to control the establishment of various drive ratios in a six speed transmission. A logic valve, comprised of two spool valves and a solenoid, is disposed between the solenoid controlled hydraulic valves and some of the friction drives in the transmission which establish the various drive ratios. The logic valves are operable to establish the fourth ratio if an electrical malfunction occurs during operation in the fourth or fifth ratios, or to establish the fifth ratio if electrical malfunction occurs while operating in the sixth ratio, or to establish the third ratio if an electrical malfunction occurs while operating in the first, second or third forward speed ratios. In the alternative, the logic valves can be controlled to establish fourth ratio whenever an electrical malfunction occurs when the transmission is operating in the second through fifth ratios.
