Start clutch control device

摘要

A first torque determining unit determines a value of a torque input to a transmission on the basis of a load acting on a start clutch (12), and a second torque determining unit determines a value of a torque input to the transmission on the basis of a manipulated amount of an accelerator pedal. After the accelerator pedal is manipulated while the start clutch (12) is in a released state, as long as the torque determined by the first torque determining unit (31a1) is less than the torque determined by the second torque determining unit (31a2), the torque input to the transmission is limited to the torque determined by the first torque determining unit (31a1).

1. A start clutch control device configured to control a connection between a driving side and a driven side of a vehicle through a start clutch disposed between the two sides, comprising:
a transmission control device comprising a central processing unit (CPU) and a storage device adapted to store determined values, and further comprising:
a first torque determining unit configured to determine a first value of a torque input to a transmission of the vehicle from a driving source of the vehicle based on a load acting on the start clutch;a second torque determining unit configured to determine a second value of a torque input to the transmission of the vehicle from the driving source of the vehicle based on a manipulated amount of an accelerator pedal of the vehicle; anda torque limiting unit configured to limit the torque input to the transmission to the first value determined by the first torque determining unit as long as the first value determined by the first torque determining unit is less than the second value determined by the second torque determining unit after the accelerator pedal is manipulated while the start clutch is in a released state, wherein: the first torque determining unit is provided with a first torque correcting unit configured to correct the first value of the torque input to the transmission according to a variation amount of the load acting on the start clutch in each control cycle; the first torque correcting unit corrects the torque input to the transmission according to a correction value possessing such a characteristic that the value thereof increases or remains at the same value as the variation amount of the load increases; the second torque determining unit is provided with a transmission ratio calculating unit configured to calculate a transmission ratio of the transmission and a second torque correcting unit configured to correct the second value of the torque input to the transmission according to the transmission ratio; the start clutch is controlled by oil pressure and arranged on a downstream side of the transmission; and the variation amount of the load acting on the start clutch is based at least in part on a delayed transmission of the oil pressure of the start clutch.
