20090065318 | OIL PRESSURE CONTROL APPARATUS - In one embodiment, an oil pressure control apparatus includes a belt-driven continuously variable transmission, a lockup clutch provided in a torque converter, a primary regulator valve that regulates a line oil pressure that becomes a source pressure of oil pressure of various parts, and a lockup control valve that performs switching when controlling engagement/release of the lockup clutch. Control of the primary regulator valve and control of the lockup control valve are performed with a single linear solenoid valve. In this case, control of the primary regulator valve and control of the lockup control valve are performed in different ranges. | 03-12-2009 |
20090264231 | HYDRAULIC CONTROL SYSTEM - A hydraulic control system of a vehicle power train having a belt-type continuously variable transmission, and a hydraulic lock-up clutch, includes: a line pressure control valve; first and second control valves; first, second and third electromagnetic valves; and a fail-safe valve. The fail-safe valve is switched to a fail position in which a line pressure is supplied to one of a drive pulley and a driven pulley when a rapid deceleration state is likely to occur in the belt-type continuously variable transmission, the fail-safe valve is switched to a normal position in which a hydraulic pressure output from the first control valve is supplied to the one of the drive pulley and the driven pulley during times other than the above, and the fail-safe valve is switched by a combination of a hydraulic pressure controlled by the second electromagnetic valve and a hydraulic pressure controlled by the third electromagnetic valve. | 10-22-2009 |
20090266429 | HYDRAULIC PRESSURE CONTROL APPARATUS - A hydraulic pressure control apparatus includes a primary regulator valve that regulates a pressure discharged from an oil pump to form a line pressure that is used as an original pressure for a hydraulic pressure that is supplied to each element, and a secondary regulator valve that regulates a hydraulic pressure downstream of the primary regulator valve to form a secondary pressure. Two pilot pressures (first modulator hydraulic pressure, control hydraulic pressure from a duty solenoid) are supplied to the secondary regulator valve. The secondary regulator valve is configured in such a manner that when one of the pilot pressures changes, a change in the one of the pilot pressures is absorbed by the other pilot pressure. | 10-29-2009 |
20100151977 | HYDRAULIC PRESSURE SUPPLY UNIT OF CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION - A control valve switches between the (A) state where the first oil passage to which a hydraulic pressure obtained by decreasing a line pressure is supplied is in communication with the fifth oil passage for supplying the hydraulic pressure to a forward clutch or a reverse brake and the third oil passage to which a hydraulic pressure controlled by an SLP linear solenoid valve is supplied is in communication with the sixth oil passage for supplying the hydraulic pressure to a primary pulley, and the (B) state where the second oil passage to which a hydraulic pressure controlled by an SLT linear solenoid valve is supplied is in communication with the fifth oil passage and the fourth oil passage for supplying the hydraulic pressure to a secondary pulley is in communication with the sixth oil passage. The fourth oil passage has an orifice. | 06-17-2010 |
20110132141 | OIL PASSAGE STRUCTURE OF CHAIN-DRIVE OIL PUMP - An oil passage structure of a chain-driven oil pump includes three lines of oil passages for supplying oil from the center support to the torque converter, a first oil passage for supplying oil to the torque converter through the inside of an input shaft of the torque converter, a second oil passage for supplying oil to the torque converter through a space defined by the outer periphery surface of the input shaft and the inner periphery surface of a stator shaft, and a third oil passage for supplying oil to the torque converter by bypassing the drive sprocket. The third oil passage is provided on the outer periphery side of the drive sprocket and in a position where it does not interfere with the operation of a chain. Accordingly, it is possible to utilize the flex lock-up to a maximum extent, and to reduce the diameter of the sprocket. | 06-09-2011 |

20130170953 | VEHICULAR POWER TRANSMITTING SYSTEM - A vehicular power transmitting system including an oil pump constructed to sufficiently reduce a required drive torque. A high-pressure-port discharge amount of first and second high-pressure passages of the oil pump is determined such that an amount of consumption of working oil of relatively high pressure can be afforded only by the high-pressure-port discharge amount, during steady-state running of a vehicle in which engine speed is not lower than a predetermined threshold value corresponding to a predetermined lowest target input shaft speed of a continuously variable transmission for its shifting control. The pressure of the working oil discharged from first and second low-pressure discharge passages is kept at a predetermined low level, and the required drive torque of the oil pump is sufficiently reduced. | 07-04-2013 |
20140305114 | AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION DEVICE FOR AUTOMOBILE - An automatic transmission device for an automobile includes a torque converter accommodated in a torque converter housing, a stator shaft supporting a stator of the torque converter, a torque converter housing, a stator shaft supporting a stator of the torque converter, a torque converter sleeve provided concentrically with the stator shaft and coupled with an inner periphery side of an impeller shell of the torque converter, a first bearing provided between an inner peripheral surface of the torque converter sleeve and an outer peripheral surface of the stator shaft, and a second bearing provided between an outer peripheral surface of the torque converter sleeve and an inner surface of the torque converter housing. | 10-16-2014 |
