Patent number: 7257522Abstract: A simulator comprising computer-aided design programs for simulating a shift control algorithm stored in an ECU of an automatic transmission having hydraulic clutches. In the simulator, a simplified hydraulic model describes the entire system so as to design a third model based on which simulation is conducted. With this, by using such a simplified model, it becomes possible to decrease simulation time to 4 sec., enabling to simulation in a time close to an actual shift of approximately 1.5 sec. Moreover, the durability of transmission is tested by repeating the simulation. When the occurrence of undesirable shift phenomenon is forecast in the simulation, the shift control algorithm is corrected until the phenomenon disappears in the next simulation. With this, the manufacturing of a test transmission and a preliminary test are no longer needed, thereby further improving the efficiency and costs of transmission development.Type: GrantFiled: August 10, 2001Date of Patent: August 14, 2007Assignee: Honda Giken Kogyo Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Kenji Hagiwara, Youhei Takeda, Shoichi Suzuki, Tsutomu Kamiyamaguchi, Satoshi Terayama, Ko Yoda

Patent number: 6402661Abstract: An automatic gear change controller, having a constant speed travel mode, which can transmit torque to wheels of a vehicle according to changes in the travel load of the vehicle even though a gear shift mode is changed to the manual gear shift mode. When the gear shift mode is set in the manual gear shift mode and the travel mode is set in a constant speed travel mode, a constant speed travel controller generates a downshift command signal. In this case, when the accelerator pedal is depressed beyond a predetermined amount, the gear shift stage of the automatic transmission is downshifted.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2000Date of Patent: June 11, 2002Assignee: Honda Giken Kogyo Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Yukio Morita, Kazuyuki Konnno, Kenji Hagiwara, Takamichi Shimada
