Control device for automatic transmission for vehicle

摘要

A sticking condition of a lock-up clutch is judged by an oil temperature of hydraulic oil and a slip ratio of the LC. An intake air amount of an engine is increased while the LC is judged to be in a sticking condition, and the increase of the intake air amount of the engine is terminated when the judgment to be in the sticking condition is canceled. This enables to effectively prevent a rotation speed of the engine from decelerating in a range (timing) where a sticking of the LC occurs, and further prevent the rotation speed of the engine from rapidly accelerating in a range where a sticking of the LC does not occur. Therefore, decelerations of engine rotation speed due to a sticking of the lock-up clutch and rapid accelerations of engine rotation speed after the sticking has been eliminated can both be prevented.

主权项

1. A control device for an automatic transmission for a vehicle, comprising:
a torque converter with a lock-up clutch disposed between an engine and an automatic transmission mounted on a vehicle; a hydraulic control device for supplying a transmission mechanism and the torque converter of the automatic transmission with pressure-regulated hydraulic oil; and a controller configured to control settings of gear ratios set by the transmission mechanism and engaging conditions of the lock-up clutch by controlling a supply oil pressure of the hydraulic control device; wherein the controller further comprises: an oil temperature judging means for judging an oil temperature of the hydraulic oil; a slip ratio calculating means for calculating a slip ratio of the lock-up clutch based on an output rotation speed of the engine and an input rotation speed of the automatic transmission; a sticking judgment means for judging whether the lock-up clutch is in a sticking condition or not based on the oil temperature of the hydraulic oil judged by the oil temperature judging means and the slip ratio calculated by the slip ratio calculating means; and an intake air amount variable means for varying an intake air amount of the engine based on a judgment of the sticking judgment means; wherein the oil temperature judging means judges the lock-up clutch is in a sticking condition when the oil temperature of the hydraulic oil is equal to or lower than a predetermined value, and the slip ratio calculated by the slip ratio calculating means is equal to or higher than a predetermined value; wherein the intake air amount variable means performs a control to increase an intake air amount of the engine more than in a normal operating condition while the lock-up clutch is judged to be in a sticking condition by the sticking judgment means, whereas an increase of the intake air amount of the engine is terminated when the judgment to be in the sticking condition is canceled.
