Publication number: 20090248264Abstract: Strain gauges and a torque value calculating unit detect a torque value acting on a sun gear based on a reaction force. An input equivalent value calculating unit calculates an input torque equivalent value based on the detected torque value, and a hydraulic pressure control unit controls output from a starting clutch by controlling operation of a hydraulic servo, based on the input torque equivalent value calculated by the input equivalent value calculating unit. Therefore, by measuring the input torque equivalent value derived from a value for torque acting on the fixed sun gear in an automatic speed change mechanism and then monitoring the input torque equivalent value as a target input torque, the control unit precisely controls the hydraulic pressure to the starting clutch FB control.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 4, 2009Publication date: October 1, 2009Applicant: AISIN AW CO., LTD.Inventor: Takayuki KUBO

Publication number: 20090248263Abstract: Strain gauges and a torque value calculating unit detect a value for torque acting on a sun gear based on a reaction force, an input equivalent value calculating unit calculates an input torque equivalent value based on the torque value detected, a torque reduction command unit issues a command to the engine for changing torque, and a torque change determination unit determines, based on the input torque equivalent value calculated, whether or not the torque of the engine has been appropriately changed in accordance with the command. Consequently, based on the torque value measured for the sun gear that is a component of the automatic speed change mechanism, it can be precisely determined whether or not the torque change for the engine has been appropriately achieved as targeted.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 4, 2009Publication date: October 1, 2009Applicant: AISIN AW CO., LTD.Inventor: Takayuki KUBO

Publication number: 20090247344Abstract: Strain gauges and a torque value calculating unit detect a value for torque acting on a sun gear, based on a reaction force. A torque phase detecting unit detects start of a torque phase at which only torque distribution changes while a gear ratio stays at the same level as before upshift, based on a change in the value for torque detected by the strain gauges and the torque value calculating unit. Consequently, when upshifting, an end of a piston stroke can be accurately determined by precisely detecting the torque phase during the shifting. Thus, problems such as burning of friction materials due to excessive heat generation in friction engagement elements can be eliminated.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 4, 2009Publication date: October 1, 2009Applicant: AISIN AW CO., LTD.Inventor: Takayuki KUBO

Patent number: 7289892Abstract: The present invention provides inspection of a transmission with higher precision and in a shorter period of time. Before a finished A/T is inspected, a V/B ASSY and an ECU are inspected together by a V/B tester in a subsidiary line. A solenoid current command value (a characteristic value inherent in the A/T) for a linear solenoid of the V/B ASSY is corrected and written into the ECU through CAN communication. Spring load of a return spring SP and stroke of the piston of a hydraulic servo for a frictional engagement element are measured. Actually measured values or corrected values of the spring load and the stroke are stored. In the final inspection of the A/T a finished-product tester reads the stored characteristic values and transmits them to the ECU integrated with the A/T through CAN communication. The characteristic values are then written into the ECU. The finished-product tester inspects the finished A/T product, using the characteristic values thus written into the ECU.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2003Date of Patent: October 30, 2007Assignees: Aisin AW Co., Ltd., Toyota Jidosha Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Akira Isogai, Masahiko Ando, Naoyuki Fukaya, Takayuki Kubo, Masao Saitou, Yuji Imanaga, Satoshi Yoshida, Masato Matsubara, Norimi Asahara, Katsumi Kono, Tomokazu Inagawa, Hideki Takamatsu
