Hydraulic control system for vehicle

摘要

A hydraulic control system for vehicle includes: an engine; an oil pump driven by the engine; a clutch device brought into engagement to enable power transmission between the engine and drive wheels by delivering a pressurized fluid thereto, and brought into disengagement to interrupt the power transmission between the engine and the drive wheels by discharging the fluid therefrom; and an accumulator storing the fluid delivered to the clutch device. The hydraulic control system is configured to control the hydraulic pressure applied to the clutch device, to stop the engine while bringing the clutch device into disengagement upon satisfaction of a predetermined stopping condition, and to restart the engine while bringing the clutch device into engagement upon satisfaction of a predetermined restarting condition. In the hydraulic control system, a hydraulic circuit increases flow rate of the fluid flowing between the accumulator and the clutch device when the engine is stopped.

1. A hydraulic control system for a vehicle, comprising:
an engine; an oil pump that is driven by the engine to generate hydraulic pressure; a clutch device that is brought into engagement to enable power transmission between the engine and drive wheels by delivering a pressurized fluid thereto, and brought into disengagement to interrupt the power transmission between the engine and the drive wheels by discharging the fluid therefrom; an accumulator that stores the fluid delivered to the clutch device; wherein the hydraulic control system is configured to: control the hydraulic pressure established by the oil pump or the accumulator serving as a hydraulic source that is delivered and discharged to/from the clutch device, stop the engine while bringing the clutch device into disengagement upon satisfaction of a predetermined stopping condition, and restart the engine while bringing the clutch device into engagement upon satisfaction of a predetermined restarting condition; and the hydraulic control system comprising a hydraulic circuit configured to increase flow rate of the fluid flowing between the hydraulic source and the clutch device when the engine is stopped, in comparison with that of the case in which the engine is activated; wherein the hydraulic circuit comprises: a first passage always connecting the hydraulic source to the clutch device to allow the fluid to be delivered from the hydraulic source to the clutch device, and to be discharged from the clutch device; a second passage selectively connecting the hydraulic source to the clutch device to allow the fluid to be delivered from the hydraulic source to the clutch device, and to be discharged from the clutch device; and a solenoid valve to close the second passage when the engine is activated, and to open the second passage when restarting the stopped engine while bringing the clutch device into disengagement to establish a communication between the hydraulic source and the clutch device through the first passage and the second passage.
