A method for automatic detection of need for clutch calibration includes registering and storing in a data memory, before or in connection with engine shut down, a value of a clutch operating parameter, registering a corresponding value of the clutch operating parameter in connection with subsequent engine start up, and determining need for clutch calibration if the difference between the stored value of the clutch operating parameter and the corresponding value of the clutch operating parameter exceeds a predetermined threshold value.

A coupling device system for use in a motor vehicle is provided including a coupling device and a memory chip. The coupling device has an input member, an output member, and at least one modulating clutch assembly selectively coupling the input member to the output member. The modulating clutch assembly includes an electrical clutch operator and clutch plates. The clutch plates include at least one first clutch plate coupled to the input member and at least one second clutch plate coupled to the output member. The second clutch plate is disposed adjacent the first clutch plate. The memory chip is integrated with the coupling device and is configured to store data related to a measured characteristic of the coupling device. The memory chip is also configured to communicate with a vehicle controller. A method of providing a calibration curve of the coupling device to the vehicle controller is also disclosed.

A method is described for classifying a clutch unit for a drivetrain of a motor vehicle, wherein the clutch unit has at least one friction clutch for the controllable transmission of a torque from an input element to an output element and has an actuator for actuating the friction clutch. Here, the clutch unit is controlled on the basis of a predefined characteristic curve which describes a predefined dependency of the clutch torque to be transmitted on an actuator control variable.

A master clutch includes a pressure plate adjacent to a friction disc. A centrifugal weight forces the pressure plate and friction disc into engagement when in a desired install position. A locking device retains the centrifugal weight in the desired installed position. A controller sends an electronic command to a system component, such as an engine, to disengage the locking device. In one example, the electronic command may be an engine speed command that is above an engine speed limit in a normal vehicle operating mode. Commanding the engine to run at a speed greater than the typical engine speed limit moves the centrifugal weight out of the desired installed position making the master clutch operational.

A method predicts transfer torque of a dry clutch in a vehicle, in which a characteristic of transfer torque of the dry clutch caused by a stroke of a clutch actuator is accurately detected in a process of detecting a characteristic of a transmission when the vehicle is finished in an assembly line, and is applied to the control of the dry clutch using the clutch actuator, thereby previously preventing a phenomenon in which an excessive slip and an impact occur at the dry clutch and thus improving shift performance, for instance, securing durability of the dry clutch, or obtaining smooth shift feeling.

The invention relates to a method for controlling a friction clutch in a drive train of a motor vehicle by means of a clutch actuator on the basis of a clutch model, in which method a nominal characteristic curve of the clutch moment which is transmitted via the friction clutch is adapted continuously to actual operating parameters. In order to counteract a loss of comfort of the motor vehicle, which is caused by the running-in behavior, for example, of the friction linings of the friction clutch, the friction clutch is operated by way of different sets of operating parameters during a running-in phase and in a run-in phase of the friction clutch.

A method of improving performance of secondary driveline clutches in motor vehicle transfer cases includes the steps of testing each manufactured transfer case to determine the clutch drive current versus torque transfer function, fitting such determined function to one of a small number of predetermined performance curves and incorporating an identification of the selected one of such predetermined performance curves in the transfer case. When the transfer case is installed in a vehicle, the curve identification is read and the transfer case control module (TCCM) adjusts its clutch drive signal in accordance with the predetermined curve to achieve known and desired torque transfer through the clutch with a given clutch drive signal.

A vehicular transmission system is disclosed that includes an engine, a transmission having an input shaft, a master friction clutch for drivingly connecting the engine to the transmission, an inertia brake for selectively controlling rotation of the input shaft, and at least one control unit. The control unit includes logic rules that selectively disable operation of the inertia brake in response to a system operating condition during at least one mode of operation of the vehicular transmission system. The system also includes at least one input corresponding to a system operating condition and at least one output corresponding to a command to log a fault or disable operation of the inertia brake in response to the system operating condition during the at least one mode of operation. A control system and method for operating the vehicular transmission system are also disclosed.
