20100243933 | Solenoid valve device - A solenoid valve device includes a solenoid valve that has a solenoid portion, a valve element that drivingly slides using electromagnetic force generated by the solenoid portion and regulates and outputs fluid pressure supplied from a fluid pressure source, a spring that biases the valve element in the sliding direction, and a spring chamber that accommodates the spring; an accumulating portion that accumulates operation fluid; an intake check valve that permits the flow of operation fluid from the accumulating portion to the spring chamber; and a discharge check valve that permits the flow of operation fluid from the spring chamber to an operation destination different from the accumulating portion. | 09-30-2010 |
20110023981 | OIL PRESSURE CONTROL APPARATUS FOR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - An oil pressure control apparatus for an automatic transmission configured with an oil pressure servo that engages and disengages a friction engagement element. The friction element is engaged by first and second hydraulic oil chambers that individually provide low torque, and can provide a higher torque when working in combination. A failure solenoid valve outputs a signal when a failure occurs to stop oil pressure to an oil pressure servo. Valves are configured to determine whether oil pressure is supplied to or discharged from the first and second hydraulic oil chambers. A switching valve is switched on the basis of the failure signal, and an oil pressure can be individually supplied to and discharged from the first and second hydraulic oil chambers based on the status of the switching solenoid valve and the signal from the failure solenoid valve. | 02-03-2011 |
20110088990 | POWER TRANSMITTING DEVICE AND VEHICLE HAVING SAME MOUNTED THEREON - A power transmission configured with a mechanical pump that generates and deliver a fluid pressure to a clutch. An electromagnetic pump generates and delivers a fluid pressure to the clutch, and an accumulator connects the clutch and the electromagnetic pump, and accumulates fluid pressure acting there between. A switching valve selectively switches between connecting the mechanical pump side and the clutch in a fluid communicating manner and connecting the electromagnetic pump and the clutch in a fluid communicating manner. A valve drive portion that drives the switching valve so as to connect the mechanical pump side and the clutch when the mechanical pump is driving, and drives the switching valve so as to connect the electromagnetic pump and the clutch when the electromagnetic pump is driving in place of the mechanical pump. | 04-21-2011 |
20110278130 | HYDRAULIC CONTROL DEVICE - A hydraulic control device that controls a hydraulic pressure to be supplied to a hydraulic servo for a hydraulically driven friction engagement element in an automatic transmission that changes between shift speeds by switching an engagement state of the friction engagement element. The control device configured with a switching mechanism that allows communication between oil passage for a first pressure regulation mechanism and the oil passage for a hydraulic servo and blocking communication between an oil passage for the second pressure regulation mechanism and the oil passage for the hydraulic servo when the signal pressure is not input to the signal pressure input oil passage, and blocking communication between the oil passage for the first pressure regulation mechanism and the oil passage for the hydraulic servo and allowing communication between the oil passage for the second pressure regulation mechanism. | 11-17-2011 |
20110301803 | CONTROL DEVICE FOR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - A control device for an automatic transmission that outputs a command signal to an actuator to control the automatic transmission. The control device configured with a main control section that receives a state of the automatic transmission, that determines an abnormality in the automatic transmission on the basis of the input state of the automatic transmission, and that outputs to the actuator a main control section command signal for controlling the automatic transmission so as to establish a predetermined shift speed when it is determined that an abnormality is occurring in the automatic transmission; and a monitoring section that determines an abnormality in the main control section and that outputs to the actuator a monitoring section command signal for causing the automatic transmission to establish a neutral state irrespective of the main control section command signal when it is determined that an abnormality is occurring in the main control section. | 12-08-2011 |
20130319555 | HYDRAULIC CONTROL DEVICE - In a hydraulic control device, when a solenoid pressure from a linear solenoid valve is not supplied to a brake, which is normally not engaged at the same time as a brake, not to engage the brake, a switching valve is supplied with a line pressure as a signal pressure for establishing a blocked/discharge state in which supply of the solenoid pressure to the brake is blocked and a hydraulic pressure can be discharged from the brake. When the solenoid pressure is supplied to the brake to engage the brake, the switching valve is supplied with a modulator pressure, which is lower than the line pressure, as a signal pressure for establishing a communicated state in which the solenoid pressure can be supplied to the brake. | 12-05-2013 |
