  • Patent number: 6617286
    Abstract: To provide a lubricating oil composition for continuously variable transmission which ensures both a high coefficient of friction between metals required for a push belt-type CTV oil and excellent oxidation stability guaranteeing the performance over a long time. A lubricating oil composition for continuously variable transmission is provided, which comprises a lubricating base oil made of a mineral oil and/or a synthetic oil formulated with a wear preventive a metal detergent and an ashless dispersant, wherein the ashless dispersant is made of a boron-containing succinimide having boron at a rate of one or more atoms in one molecule of the ashless dispersant.

  • Patent number: 6593281
    Abstract: To provide a lubricating oil composition for automatic transmission which ensures both a high torque capacity of a wet clutch and a good &mgr;(coefficient of friction)-V (sliding velocity) characteristic in an automatic transmission along with excellent storage stability in a high humidity environment. A lubricating oil composition for automatic transmission is provided, which comprises a lubricating base oil made of a mineral oil and/or a synthetic oil formulated with a friction modifier, a metal detergent and an ashless dispersant, characterized in that said ashless dispersant consists of an succinimide having boron at a rate of three or less atoms in one molecule of the ashless dispersant.

  • Patent number: 6426323
    Abstract: To provide a lubricating oil composition for continuously variable transmission which ensures both a high coefficient of friction between metals required for a push belt-type CTV oil and an excellent wear preventing property relative to a belt and a pulley. A lubricating oil composition for continuously variable transmission is provided, which comprises a lubricating base oil made of a mineral oil and/or a synthetic oil formulated with a metal detergent and a phosphorus-based wear preventive characterized in that a ratio between a content (ppm) of a metal derived from said metal detergent and based on the total weight of the lubricating oil composition and a total base number (mg KOH/g) ranges 0.75-4.5 (ppm/mg KOH/g), and a ratio between the content (ppm) of the metal derived from said metal detergent and a content of phosphorus derived from said phosphorus-based wear preventive ranges 0.5-2.0 (ppm/ppm).

  • Patent number: 6184185
    Abstract: The present invention provides a lubricant oil composition for an automatic and continuously variable transmission with a built-in torque converter equipped with a lock-up clutch, which is incorporated, in the base oil, with a compound containing at least one type of cyclic carboxylic acid imide having boron in the molecule and substituted by an alkyl or alkenyl group, wherein the cyclic carboxylic acid imide is contained at 0.1 to 12 wt % based on the whole composition.

  • Patent number: 5922656
    Abstract: The lubricant composition of the present invention can be used in automatic transmissions and contains 0.05 to 2% of a metallic salt of organic acid (component (A)), such as calcium sulfonate, 0.15 to 4% of a specific polyamide compound (component (B)) and 0.05 to 1.5% of acid phosphate or acid phosphite ester (component (C)) which are added to a lubricant base oil, wherein all percentages are by weight in the total lubricant composition. The lubricant composition for automatic transmissions can show high anti-shudder property, high anti-shudder durability for an extended period, high property of preventing clogging of the friction material, and sufficient transmission torque capacity, while retaining the lubricant characteristic requirements for use in automatic transmissions.
