  • Publication number: 20250242689
    Abstract: A vehicle selects a parking position or a neutral position when a state in which a P range button (2) or an N range button (4) is operated overlaps a state in which a D range button (5) or an R range button (3) is operated. Thereafter, the vehicle maintains the parking position or neutral position when the operation of P range button (2) or N range button (4) is released to switch to a state in which D range button (5) or R range button (3) is operated. This allows the vehicle to suppress a false start and inhibit the selection of a shift position that is different from the intention of the driver.

  • Patent number: 11808349
    Abstract: The control device is configured to supply an offset current value to disengagement solenoids of disengagement-side friction engaging elements among a plurality of shift solenoids that control respective shift oil pressures applied to the plurality of friction engaging elements, and when a current gear position is a first speed position or a reverse position, decrease a current value to be supplied to at least one of the disengagement solenoids that are supplied with the offset current value to be lower than the offset current value.

  • Patent number: 9073537
    Abstract: A shift control device is mounted on a vehicle and provided with a shift control unit to control a speed ratio of a continuously variable transmission which continuously shifts and allows output of a rotational speed of a driving power source, wherein the shift control unit executes, based on a driving state of the vehicle, a first shift control for suppressing a change of the speed ratio and a second shift control for upshifting the speed ratio to a predetermined speed ratio, and suppresses a change of the speed ratio in the first shift control, followed by shifting the speed ratio to become lower before execution of the second shift control.
