Dual clutch transmission

摘要

A dual clutch transmission is provided in which at a time of pre-shifting when, while one of first and second driving force transmission paths extending from first and second input shafts to an output shaft is transmitting the driving force, the selection device for the other driving force transmission path is operated, the driving force of an internal combustion engine is changed by a command from an electronic control unit. Even if a driving force or braking force due to inertia occurs as a result of a change in the rotational speed of the first and second input shafts accompanying the pre-shifting, it is possible to reduce the shift shock by compensating for the driving force or braking force due to the inertia by changing the driving force of the engine.

1. A dual clutch transmission comprising:
a first input shaft to which a driving force from a drive source is transmitted via a first clutch, a second input shaft to which a driving force from the drive source is transmitted via a second clutch, an output shaft connected to a driven wheel, a first selection device that is provided on the first input shaft side and is associated with two first gear trains, said first selection device selecting one of the two first gear trains that can alternatively provide a selective connection between the first input shaft and the output shaft, a second selection device that is provided on the second input shaft side and with two second gear trains, said second selection device selecting one of the two second gear trains that can alternatively provide a selective connection between the second input shaft and the output shaft, a first driving force transmission path that, when the first clutch is engaged, changes the driving force of the first input shaft and transmits the driving force to the output shaft via one of the first gear trains selected by the first selection device, and a second driving force transmission path that, when the second clutch is engaged, changes the driving force of the second input shaft and transmits the driving force to the output shaft via one of the second gear trains selected by the second selection device, wherein, at a speed gear position, one of the first and second driving force transmission paths is transmitting the driving force and the other driving force transmission paths is not transmitting the driving force, and one of the two gear trains for the other of the driving force transmission paths that is not transmitting the drive force is connected to the first or second input shaft via the first or second clutch and rotation of the output shaft is transmitted to the first or second input shaft while the other gear train for the other driving force transmission path is disconnected from the first or second input shaft, and when a gear position is shifted from said speed gear position to a new speed gear position, the selection device for the other transmission path is operated and the one of the two gear trains for the other driving force transmission path is disconnected from the first or second input shaft while the other of the two gear trains for the other driving force transmission path is connected to the first or second input shaft via the first or second clutch, wherein the transmission comprises a driving force regulation device that suppresses variation of the driving force transmitted to the driven wheel by changing the driving force of the drive source at a time of pre-shifting when the selection device for one of the first and second driving force transmission path that is not transmitting the driving force is operated and changes connection of the input shaft of the other driving force transmission path from the one of the two gear trains to the other of the two gear trains, thereby suppressing variation in the driving force to be transmitted from the other of the two gear trains for the other driving force transmission path to the output shaft.
