  • Patent number: 10041584
    Abstract: There is provided a control device for a transmission for shifting a driving force of an engine. The transmission includes at least two input shafts configured to be driven by the driving force of the engine, intermediate shafts provided correspondingly to the at least two input shafts and configured such that driving forces of the input shafts are respectively transmitted thereto, and a clutch provided between the input shafts and the intermediate shafts and configured to transmit the driving forces from the input shafts to the intermediate shafts. A non-use shaft detection section is configured to detect a non-use state of the intermediate shafts based on a transmission state of the clutch.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20130060434
    Abstract: Disclosed is a vehicle gear-shifting control apparatus (1) performing cruise control which automatically controls output to basically maintain a set vehicle speed set based on a human operation and enables temporary acceleration based on an accelerator pedal operation, the vehicle gear-shifting control apparatus having: a plurality of shift maps to which a priority ranking is set, the shift maps including a cruise shift map used at a time of cruise control and a shift map used at a time of normal traveling; and a plurality of patterns in which the priority rankings of the plurality of shift maps are different from each other, wherein, during traveling, the pattern is selectively changed based on an accelerator pedal operation humanly operated.

  • Patent number: 7204141
    Abstract: In a fuel level control system for an internal combustion engine, more than one filter having different characteristics is applied to correct the fuel level value according to the condition of the vehicle, providing precise fuel level measurement. The fuel level control system for the engine includes a fuel level correction section in which fuel level detection is prevented until a first set time has elapsed from activation of an ignition switch. The fuel level is detected by the fuel level detector after the first set time has elapsed and the detected fuel level value is corrected with a weak filter of high followability. After a second set time has elapsed the detected fuel level value is corrected with a strong filter of low followability. The strong filter minimizes the effect of disturbances on the fuel level value.
