Controlling automated gearbox involves operating clutch on slip limit, reducing engine torque, disengaging starting gear, engaging target gear, synchronizing engine, increasing torque

摘要

The method involves gearshifts with the clutch engaged and asynchronous engagement of the target gear. For an up shift the clutch is first operated on the slip limit, the engine torque is then reduced and then the starting gear is disengaged and the target gear engaged. The engine is then synchronized and the torque increased again. AN Independent claim is also included for the following: an automated discrete gearbox.
