DRIVING FORCE TRANSMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM

摘要

A driving force transmission control system includes: an electric motor; a multi-disc clutch; a cam mechanism that converts rotation output from the electric motor into cam thrust force that is axial force in the axial direction of the multi-disc clutch; a pressure-conversion mechanism that converts reaction force against the cam thrust force into pressure of a fluid; a pressure sensor that detects the pressure; and a control unit that computes a command value of a current supplied to the electric motor. The control unit stores the pressure of the fluid during disengagement of the multi-disc clutch, and computes the current command value based on the pressure of the fluid to which the reaction force against the cam thrust force has been applied, and the stored pressure of the fluid.

1. A driving force transmission control system comprising:
an electric motor; a clutch including an outer friction member and an inner friction member that are disposed on the same axis so as to be rotatable relative to each other and that are frictionally engaged with each other by being pressed in an axial direction of the clutch; an outer rotary member that rotates together with the outer friction member; an inner rotary member that rotates together with the inner friction member; a cam mechanism that receives rotative force from the electric motor to generate cam thrust force for pressing the clutch in the axial direction; a pressure-conversion mechanism that includes a piston that receives reaction force against the cam thrust force from the cam mechanism, and that converts the reaction force into pressure of a fluid in a pressure chamber using the piston; a pressure sensor that detects the pressure of the fluid; and a control unit that computes a command value of a current to be supplied to the electric motor, wherein the control unit stores the pressure of the fluid during disengagement of the clutch or a correlated value correlated with the pressure of the fluid during disengagement of the clutch, and computes the command value based on the pressure of the fluid to which the reaction force against the cam thrust force has been applied, and the stored pressure of the fluid or the stored correlated value.
