20080217134 | Process for pressure actuation of a shifting element - The invention concerns a process for pressure actuation of a rotating shifting element of an automatic transmission or automated manual transmission, in which the shifting element is configured with a piston that interacts with a torque transfer element and a pressure medium supply, by way of which the piston can be actuated with pressure medium in order to be displaced into a positioned defined for an activated state of the shifting element, and in which a pressure pulse can be induced in the pressure medium supply in a de-activated state of the shifting element. It is proposed that the pressure medium pulse be triggered when the pressure medium amount drained from the de-activated shifting element has reached a predefined value. | 09-11-2008 |

20090024286 | METHOD FOR AUTOMATICALLY ENGAGING A PARKING LOCK OF AN AUTOMATIC OR AUTOMATED TRANSMISSION OF A MOTOR VEHICLE - A method of automatically engaging a parking lock of an automatic or automated transmission of a motor vehicle, which can be engaged by way of a selector device depending on a drive position selected by the driver of the motor vehicle and depending on other operating parameters. In order to achieve as little restriction of the drivability of the motor vehicle as possible, without neglecting the safety of the driver and the surroundings, five different embodiments of a Auto-P function are proposed for automatically engaging the parking lock: two of these embodiments are associated with an electrically interrupted ignition circuit of the motor vehicle; two embodiments are associated with an electrically closed ignition circuit and a simultaneously stopped vehicle drive motor and one embodiment is associated with an electrically closed ignition circuit and a simultaneously operating drive motor. | 01-22-2009 |
20090029822 | Multi-stage automatic gearbox - A multi-speed automatic transmission comprises a drive input shaft (AN), a drive output shaft (AB), a double planetary transfer gearset (VS), a main gearset (HS) made as a coupled planetary gearset with at least three non-coupled input elements and one output element, and six shift elements (A to F), which, when engaged in pairs, enable at least eight forward gears to be engaged. An input element of the transfer gearset (VS) is connected with the drive input shaft (AN). An output element of the transfer gearset (VS) rotates at a speed slower than the input speed of the drive input shaft (AN). An element of the transfer gearset (VS) is fixed on a transmission housing (GG). The first input element of the main gearset (HS) can be connected via a second shift element (B) to the output element of the transfer gearset (VS), can be fixed by a third shift element (C), and can be connected with the drive input shaft (AN) by a sixth shift element (F). The second input element of the main gearset (HS) can be connected via a first shift element (A) to the output element of the transfer gearset (VS). The third input element of the main gearset (HS) can be fixed by a fourth shift element (D) and can be connected by a fifth shift element (E) to the drive input shaft (AN). The output element of the main gearset (HS) is connected to the drive output shaft (AB). The sixth shift element (F) is arranged axially between the transfer and main gearsets (VS, HS).

20090111647 | METHOD FOR SELECTING A NEUTRAL POSITION OF A MOTOR VEHICLE TRANSMISSION AND FOR SELECTING A PARKING GEAR OF A MOTOR VEHICLE - The invention relates to a method to select a neutral position of an automatic or automated motor vehicle transmission and to select a parking gear provided to immobilize a motor vehicle, wherein the neutral position and parking device can be set or activated, depending on a gear selected by the driver of the motor vehicle on a selector device and depending on other operating parameters of the motor vehicle. In addition, the invention relates to a motor vehicle controlled by this method. | 04-30-2009 |
20090111648 | METHOD FOR AUTOMATICALLY CONTROLLING A NEUTRAL POSITION AND A PARKING LOCK OF A MOTOR VEHICLE TRANSMISSION - A method of automatically controlling a neutral position and parking lock of an motor-vehicle transmission to immobilize the vehicle depending on a drive position of the transmission selected by the driver with a selector device and subject to other operating parameters of the motor vehicle. Only when simultaneously the vehicle is essentially stationary, an ignition circuit is electrically interrupted and the selector device is in a “Neutral” position, can an Neutral-holding phase be activated, in which the transmission is in a non-frictionally engaged neutral position as long as the parking lock of the transmission has not yet been engaged. If the Neutral-holding phase has not been activated, the transmission remains non-frictionally connected in the Neutral position until the driver at least intends to exit the vehicle, at which time the parking lock of the transmission is automatically engaged. | 04-30-2009 |
20090111649 | METHOD FOR SELECTING A NEUTRAL POSITION OF A MOTOR VEHICLE TRANSMISSION AND FOR SELECTING A PARKING DEVICE OF THE MOTOR VEHICLE - A method for selecting a neutral position of an automatic or automated motor vehicle transmission and for selecting a parking device of the motor vehicle intended for immobilizing the motor vehicle, wherein the neutral position and the parking device can be engaged or actuated as a function of a position chosen by the driver of the motor vehicle on a selector device and as a function of other operating parameters of the motor vehicle. The invention further relates to a motor vehicle controlled by this method. | 04-30-2009 |
20090111654 | METHOD FOR THE AUTOMATIC CONTROL OF A NEUTRAL POSITION AND A PARKING LOCK OF A MOTOR VEHICLE TRANSMISSION - The invention concerns a method for the automatic control of a neutral position and a parking lock of an automatic or automated motor vehicle transmission, such that the neutral position and the parking lock of the transmission provided in order to immobilize the motor vehicle can be engaged as a function of a drive setting selected by the driver of the motor vehicle using a selector device, and as a function of other operating parameters of the vehicle.
