<p>An automatic transmission system for a vehicle having a plurality of drive gears mounted on an input shaft, a plurality of driven gears mounted on an output shaft and meshing with the drive gears, a torque converter disposed between a crankshaft of an engine and the input shaft, synchromesh mechanisms for synchronously engaging the drive gears with the driven gears and a shift controller for automatically actuating the synchromesh mechanisms so as to obtain a required gear ratio, includes a lock-up clutch incorporated in the torque converter for connecting a turbine shaft of the torque converter with the crankshaft, an electronically controlled throttle valve for automatically operating to reduce a rotation speed of the crank shaft when the gear is shifted, a bypass clutch for transmitting torque from the input shaft to the output shaft when the gear is shifted while the electronically controlled throttle valve operates to reduce a rotation speed of the crankshaft, an input clutch provided between an output element of the torque converter and the input shaft for selectively controlling a torque transmission from the crankshaft to the input shaft when the gear is shifted, and a brake mechanism provided on an impeller shell of the torque converter for additionally reducing a rotational speed of the crankshaft while the electronically controlled throttle valve operates to reduce a rotational speed of the crankshaft.</p> |
