Abstract: Ground wires are shared between a drive-side pulley solenoid valve and a driven-side pulley solenoid valve. Therefore, when a disconnection or short circuit occurs in the shared portion, a drive-side pulley and a driven-side pulley show substantially the same behavior. As a result, changes in the speed ratio ?cvt of a continuously variable transmission are suppressed and changes in vehicle behavior are also suppressed. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the degradation of drivability during the failure of the solenoid valves involved in power transmission.

Abstract: A hydraulic control device for an automatic transmission where the spool is locked at the first position and the switching pressure can regulate the belt holding force of the primary pulley or the secondary pulley without switching a position of the spool when the engagement pressure is supplied to the second working oil chamber, and the spool is not locked at the first position and the switching pressure can switch the spool to the second position against the urging member when the engagement pressure is not supplied to the second working oil chamber.

Abstract: A vehicle hydraulic device is provided with an electric motor-driven oil pump and a shuttle valve, so that a vane pump operates smoothly, even at the start, with a backpressure applied from the electric motor-driven oil pump to the vanes. Even when the oil pressure of a working fluid discharged from the vane pump exceeds the backpressure inside vane housing grooves, the working fluid flows from a vane pump discharge oil passage to a backpressure oil passage, so that the vanes are not pushed into the housing grooves. Thus, it is possible to reduce the fluctuations in discharge amount of the vane pump due to fluctuations in oil pressure of the vane pump discharge oil passage during operation of the vane pump.

Abstract: A check valve provided makes it possible to operate a vane pump smoothly even at the start of the vane pump by maintaining an oil pressure in backpressure oil passages inside the vane pump while the vane pump is stopped. The check valve opens at the point in time when an oil pressure control device, to which a working fluid is supplied from the vane pump, has been filled with the working fluid and the oil pressure in discharge oil passages communicating with the oil pressure control device has risen and exceeded the oil pressure in the backpressure oil passages. Thus, the check valve is prevented from opening and closing repeatedly, so that the durability of the check valve is improved.

Abstract: In a vehicular belt-driven continuously variable transmission, belt squeezing force is inhibited from becoming excessive and a safety factor, with respect to belt slip, of belt squeezing force applied to a transmission belt (48) is reduced to a value that is less than or equal to 1.5 by reducing a pressure receiving area (SOUT) of an output side hydraulic cylinder (46c). As a result, a centrifugal hydraulic pressure canceller chamber on a secondary pulley side (46) can be eliminated thus simplifying the structure of the vehicular belt-driven continuously variable transmission, while belt squeezing force can be appropriately controlled.

Abstract: The line hydraulic pressure setting portion sets the line hydraulic pressure PL, which is the base pressure for the required shift control pressure Pin and the required belt clamping pressure Pd, based on the higher of the required pressures Pin and Pd. At this time, if the continuously variable transmission is to be shifted up, the required Pin calculating portion calculates the required shift control pressure Pin based on one of the target speed ratio ?* and the actual speed ratio ? with which the required shift pressure Pv is calculated to be higher than with the other. As such, the required shift control pressure Pin is set to the minimum necessary level for shifting up the continuously variable transmission and the line hydraulic pressure PL is appropriately set to a level for obtaining the required shift control pressure Pin.

Abstract: A first orifice is provided in a first fluid passage upstream of a cooler, and a second orifice is provided in a second fluid passage. The flowrates of hydraulic fluid flowing through the first and second fluid passages are regulated by the first and second orifices, respectively, and are thus suppressed from becoming excessive. Also, the downstream side of the second fluid passage is connected to the first fluid passage between the first orifice and the cooler, and a lubrication passage is connected to the first fluid passage downstream of the cooler. Accordingly, the lubrication passage is a single passage and the cooler and the lubrication passage are arranged in series so the cooler flowrate and the lubrication flowrate are the same. As a result, the flowrate of hydraulic fluid that flows out from a secondary regulator valve to the upstream side of an oil pump can be increased.
