APPAREIL DE COMMANDE DU COUPLE D'EMBRAYAGE DANS UN DISPOSITIF HYDRODYNAMIQUE DE TRANSMISSION DE PUISSANCE

摘要

The torque of a clutch disposed in parallel with a hydrodynamic power transmitting device provided between an engine and a transmission is gradually reduced upon disengaging the clutch when the torque of the engine is higher than a predetermined level. As a result, the instantaneous great drop in the output torque of the transmission at the time of the disengagement of the clutch is prevented to thereby improve the acceleration response of a vehicle.
