Method of controlling gear changes in an automatic transmission.

摘要

Garage shifts are accomplished at shifts from neutral to forward or reverse or between forward and reverse. An off-going clutch C1-C5 is released at the beginning of the shift for shifts between forward and reverse; shifts from neutral have no off-going clutch. The on-coming clutch C1-C5 has a fill time at maximum pressure, a lower increasing pressure ramp to begin engagement as indicated by pullup or pulldown, and a closed-loop control triggered by pull up or pulldown. The closed-loop control commands the pressure to control the turbine speed Nt to a calculated profile to bring the speed to a target value. When the target value is attained the closed-loop control is terminated and maximum pressure is applied. For low speed shifts and for a high speed shift between forward and reverse, the target value is zero. For high speed shifts from neutral the target value may be either above or below the initial turbine speed.
