Therefore, in the case where making turning-bar 11 be poured onto angle T1 from in-line position, the time of the disconnection of clutch 6 in side Point, the oil to work in grease chamber 34a is by the overflow port 34b of the turning driver 34 of under working condition (turning medial) to overflow The suction inlet 33a of valve 33 discharges.Although spring 43 can be maintained here, spring base 41 is moved upward from the specified position Natural length, in the state of the applied force (i.e. overflow pressure) substantially 0 of spring 43, therefore, from overflow port 34b oil upon Suction inlet 33a is flowed into, piston 42 just therefore press and be pressed down immediately by the inflow of oil, and so that suction inlet 33a is connected to outlet 33b, 33 valve opening of overflow valve.Therefore, the stroke of piston 35 stops, and mobile device 5 rests on the disconnection of side clutch 6, and (side brake 7 is not yet Open) time point at sliding position.
After overflow port 34b is connected to work grease chamber 34a, the slave angle T1 of the dump angle T based on turning-bar 11 to Any setting in the range of maximum angle Tmax, and the movement based on spring base 41 are equivalent to applying to piston 42 to set The degree of compression of the spring 43 of reinforcing sets the overflow pressure of overflow valve 33.Therefore, the steering under working condition (turning medial) is used The piston 35 of driver 34 pushes mobile device 5 to make its sliding, until the oil pressure in work grease chamber 34a becomes in this way The overflow pressure of setting reaches the time point of overflow pressure and 33 valve opening of overflow valve, the cunning of piston 35 and mobile device 5 in the oil pressure It is dynamic to stop.If the dump angle T of turning-bar 11 at this time reaches T2 or more, the brake plate of the side brake 7 of turning medial Each other with crimping degree corresponding with this dump angle T crimping, brake force corresponding with this crimping degree can be acted in turning by 7a, 7b The axle 4 of side.
When the left turning angle LT of turning-bar 11 reaches maximum angle Tmax, the position of cam-operated arm 46 is Fig. 4 institute The position " Lm " shown, lobe plate 44 reach maximum to the upper pressure amount of spring base 41, the applied force (degree of compression) of spring 43, i.e. overflow The overflow pressure of valve 33 reaches maximum, moves left device 5L and reaches maximum outside sliding position, the brake force of left hand brake device 7L reaches To maximum.

Then, to the mobile dress with so-called " flicking " in order to avoid mobile device 5 and to clutch when it is disconnected The related several embodiments of composition for setting 5 mobile imparting resistance are illustrated.It should be noted that " the bullet of mobile device 5 Open " refer to following phenomenon: when in side, clutch 6 is migrated from off-state to connection status, the clutch claw 6b of mobile device 5 with The clutch claw 6a of distribution gear 22 is not synchronous well and do not engage, and the clutch claw 6b of mobile device 5 is rotated through in journey Distribution gear 22 clutch claw 6a " flicking "." flicking " of the mobile device 5 can cause clutch claw 6a, 6b abrasion, Burn such problems of spring 5a.
The construction that resistance is assigned as the movement to mobile device 5 exists and assigns resistance to the rotation of turning-bar 11 Construction, the construction for assigning resistance relative to the sliding of side clutch shaft 21 to mobile device 5.Wherein, firstly, to as with to turn Resistance mechanism 170 shown in Figure 11 to the related first embodiment of construction of the mobile imparting resistance of bar 11 is illustrated.Resistance Force mechanisms 170 have linear fluid damper.It should be noted that can also have revolving fluid damper carrys out generation It replaces.Resistance mechanism 170 has cylinder 172, pivot 173, arm 174 and piston rod 175.Cylinder 172 is by by shell 172a and shell 172b is engaged and is formed, and is disposed in the vehicle in a manner of as frame, mud guard for being fixed on vehicle etc..In cylinder 172 Portion is sealed with oil or gas.
It is fixedly installed arm 174 on the top of piston rod 175, arm 174 is linked to turning-bar 11 via 173 pivot of pivot. When turning-bar 11 is toppled over to the left, left side of the piston rod 175 into figure is mobile, also, when turning-bar 11 is toppled over to the right, Right side of the piston rod 175 into figure is mobile.In cylinder 172, in the wall part of shell 172a, 172b that piston rod 175 is penetrated through It is not equipped with oil sealing 176a, 176b.
Compression chamber 171 is formed in the inside of cylinder 172.Fluid is filled in compression chamber 171.Compression chamber 171 include side from Clutch region Rn, right hand brake region Rfa and left hand brake device region Rfb.Form the internal perisporium on the boundary in these regions Position it is according to region and different according to the shape of the internal perisporium of cylinder 172.Specifically, it is formed in the internal perisporium of cylinder 172 right The bore of the hole 172e of the hole 172d and formation left hand brake device region Rfb of side brake region Rfa, which are greater than, forms side clutch The bore of the hole 172c of device region Rn and close to the outer diameter of piston portion 175c.
The piston portion 175c of piston rod 175 is at the middle part of piston rod 175 in flange shape part outstanding.In piston portion 175c is formed with damping hole 175d.Damping hole 175d is penetrated through from the right press surface 175e of piston portion 175c to left press surface 175f. In addition, the periphery wall surface 175h in piston portion 175c is equipped with oil sealing 176c.Piston portion 175c with toppling over for turning-bar 11 and It is moved together with piston rod 175.
Step 172f and step 172h are formed in the internal perisporium of cylinder 172.Using step 172f as boundary, the inside quilt of cylinder 172 It is divided into right hand brake region Rfa and side clutch region Rn.Using step 172h as boundary, the inside of cylinder 172 is divided into side Clutch region Rn and left hand brake device region Rfb.
In the case where piston portion 175c is in right hand brake region Rfa movement and piston portion 175c is in left hand brake device In the case that region Rfb is mobile, the fluid in compression chamber 171 is needed across damping hole 175d.Therefore, because being located at side clutch The piston portion 175c of region Rn is moved to the right and the right press surface 175e of piston portion 175c is made to enter right hand brake region Rfa When, the operation resistance for being applied to turning-bar 11 increases.On the other hand, in the piston portion because being located at right hand brake region Rfa When 175c is moved to the left and made the periphery wall surface 175h of piston portion 175c by step 172f, it is applied to the operation of turning-bar 11 Resistance reduces.The operation resistance for being applied to turning-bar 11 equally can be because in side clutch region Rn and left hand brake device region Rfb Between the piston portion 175c that moves and increase or reduce.
Right press surface 175e starts from the side clutch region Rn time point that brake area Rfa enters to the right and right side The starting point of clutch 6R cutting is consistent.Right press surface 175e starts from side clutch region Rn brake area Rfa to the right The time point of entrance refers to the position of right press surface 175e along the position in the direction moved and step 172f piston portion 175c Consistent time point.Left press surface 175f starts the time point entered from side clutch region Rn brake area Rfb to the left It is consistent with the starting point of left side clutch 6L cutting.Left press surface 175f starts from the side brake area to the left side clutch region Rn The time point that domain Rfb enters refers to the position of left press surface 175f along the position in the direction moved and step 172h piston portion 175c Set consistent time point.
It should be noted that reaching maximum value in outside (right side) slippage for becoming moving right device 5R and making right side Before dynamic device 7R plays the state of maximum braking force, the right press surface 175e of the piston portion 175c in the Rfa of right hand brake region It will not all be abutted with an end face 172i of the internal perisporium of cylinder 172.In addition, being slided in the outside (left side) for becoming left hand brake device 7L Before amount reaches maximum value and makes the state of left hand brake device 7L performance maximum braking force, the work in left hand brake device region Rfb The left press surface 175f of piston part 175c will not be abutted with the other end 172j of the internal perisporium of cylinder 172.
On the other hand, the situation mobile towards side clutch region Rn from right hand brake region Rfa in piston portion 175c Under, time point of the position consistency in the direction and step 172f moved in the position of right press surface 175e along piston portion 175c it Before, turning-bar 11 can all be applied operation resistance.Inhibit the rotation of turning-bar 11 by the operation resistance, therefore, can inhibit Right side clutch 6R is migrated from off-state to connection status.It can inhibit to move right device 5R " flicking " as a result,.Then, exist In the case that piston portion 175c is moved from right hand brake region Rfa towards side clutch region Rn, in the outer of piston portion 175c After peripheral wall surfaces 175h passes through step 172f, the operation resistance for being applied to turning-bar 11 is released.
In addition, in the case where piston portion 175c is mobile towards side clutch region Rn from left hand brake device region Rfb, The position of left press surface 175f turns along before the time point of the direction moved piston portion 175c and the position consistency of step 172h Operation resistance can be all applied to bar 11.Inhibit the rotation of turning-bar 11 by the operation resistance, therefore, can inhibit left side from Clutch 6L migrating from off-state to connection status.It can inhibit to move left device 5L " flicking " as a result,.Then, in piston In the case that portion 175c is moved from left hand brake device region Rfb towards side clutch region Rn, in the periphery wall surface of piston portion 75c After 175h passes through step 172h, the operation resistance for being applied to turning-bar 11 is released.
In this way, the disconnection of side clutch 6R is back to from the state that side brake 7 plays maximum braking force in mobile device 5 During the switching point (position that the turning angle T of turning-bar 11 is T1) of state and connection status, 170 pairs of resistance mechanism steerings Bar 11 applies operation resistance R (strictly speaking, operation resistance R increases, and reaches defined value Rh), slows down even mobile device 5 as a result, The direction for connecing side clutch 6 on sliding speed, the clutch claw 6b of mobile device 5R with will not generating " flicking " with distribution The clutch claw 6a of gear 22 is engaged.When clutch claw 6b engages (side clutch 6 is connected) with clutch claw 6b, until will Turning-bar 11 is back to before in-line position, will not all be applied steering resistence, in addition, conversely, make turning-bar 11 from straight trip (T=0) is poured onto before dump angle T1 for position, and will not being all applied operation resistance R, (strictly speaking, operation resistance R becomes most Small value R0), thus it is ensured that the rapid reaction of the side clutch 6 of the realization of fascinating by turning-bar 11 in the range of collapse.
The operation resistance R of the dump angle T of turning-bar 11 more than expression and the resistance mechanism 170 for being applied to turning-bar 11 Relationship be Figure 12 curve graph.
Then, to Figure 13 (A) as the related second embodiment of construction for applying resistance with the movement to turning-bar 11 And friction (resistance) mechanism 180 shown in Figure 13 (B) is illustrated.One embodiment of the resistance mechanism as turning-bar 11 Friction mechanism 180 has arm 181, extruded member 182, retainer 183, support rod 184, pivot 185, hub 186 and stretches bullet Spring 187.
The hub 186 for being formed in the middle part of support rod 184, which is surround, is set to pivot 185, and by pivot 185 to support rod 84 carry out pivot suspension.Support rod 184 can be rotated centered on the central axis 185c of pivot 185.The one of support rod 184 End is equipped with extruded member 182, is equipped with one end of extension spring 187 in the other end.The other end of extension spring 187 is fixed on The frame etc. of vehicle.
Arm 181 is assemblied in hub 11a in a manner of it can rotate according to the operation of turning-bar 11.Arm 181 is located at across hub 11a The opposite side of turning-bar 11.In arm 181 with fan shape, the central part at the edge of arc-shaped is compared with the part of its two sides Recess.The central part is known as non-model control region 181a, the part of these two sides is known as friction area 181b, 181c.It needs Illustrate, although not shown, but the turning-bar 11 of Figure 13 (A) and Figure 13 (B) also have set on Figure 10 turning-bar 11 this Left and right threshold switch 53L, 53R of sample, and have the mechanism switched over to their ON and OFF.
Draft helical spring 187 by make extruded member 182 towards arm 181 in a manner of pull support rod 184.As a result, to branch It holds bar 184 and applies the elastic force for rotating 184 around the pivot 185 of support rod.In other words, make extruded member to the application of support rod 184 182 elastic forces being moved upward.
Frame etc. of the retainer 183 relative to vehicle is fixed.It is less than angle T1's in the dump angle T of turning-bar 11 Under state, support rod 184 is contacted with retainer 183, as a result, extruded member 182 be located at the lower section of non-model control region 181a without It is contacted with arm 181.
With toppling over for turning-bar 11, in the state that side brake 7 works, extruded member 182 is contacted with arm 181, when When brake force releases, the contact with arm 181 is released.
Turning-bar 11 is toppled over, and reaches the time point of angle T1 in dump angle T as a result, extruded member 182 is relative to arm The contact start of 181 friction area 181b, 181c, therefore, the contact with retainer 183 of support rod 184 release.In turning-bar In the case that 11 topple over to the right, arm 181 is contacted in friction area 181b with extruded member 182.It is rolled to the left in turning-bar 11 In the case where, arm 181 is contacted in friction area 181c with extruded member 182.When arm 181 friction area 181b, 181c with When extruded member 182 abuts, friction can be generated between the edge and extruded member 182 of the arc-shaped of arm 181 therefore can be to Turning-bar 11 applies the operation resistance toppled over for inhibiting turning-bar 11.
After the dump angle T for the turning-bar 11 toppled over to the right from in-line position passes through T1, reach in dump angle T Before the maximum dump angle Tmax of right side, i.e., reaches maximum value in outside (right side) slippage for becoming moving right device 5R and make Before right hand brake 7R plays the state of maximum braking force, extruded member 182 is in friction area 181b and arc-shaped arm 181 EDGE CONTACT persistently applies fixed frictional resistance (operation resistance Rh shown in Figure 13) to arm 181.On the other hand, from straight Line position sets the dump angle T for the turning-bar 11 toppled over to the left by reaching the maximum flip angle in left side in dump angle T after T1 It spends before Tmax, i.e., reach maximum value in outside (left side) slippage for becoming moving left device 5L and sends out left hand brake device 7L Before the state for waving maximum braking force, extruded member 182 continues in the EDGE CONTACT of friction area 181c and arc-shaped arm 181 Apply fixed frictional resistance (operation resistance Rh shown in Figure 13) to arm 181.
It is rubbing in turning-bar 11 from arm 181 in the friction area 181b state contacted with extruded member 182 or from arm 181 The state that contact with extruded member 182 of region 181c is wiped to start to the left or in the case that right side is toppled over, in arm 181 and extruding structure Before part 182 separates, turning-bar 11 is all applied operation resistance (Rh).Then, it in non-model control region 181a and is squeezed in arm 181 Component 182 stand facing each other and after being separated with extruded member 182, arm 181 is left-handed go to in-line position during, become turning-bar 11 It is not applied the state of the operation resistance as caused by extruded member 182 (operation resistance is minimum value R0).
In this way, mobile device 5 from side brake 7 play maximum braking force state begin to return to side clutch 6 from Off-state to connection status migrate starting point during, friction mechanism 180 persistently to turning-bar 11 apply inhibit side clutch Device 6 inhibits " flicking " of mobile device 5L from off-state to the operation resistance of connection status migrated.
Then, the embodiment as the construction for applying resistance relative to the sliding of side clutch shaft 21 to mobile device 5 is right Resistance mechanism 188 shown in Figure 14 is illustrated.
Resistance mechanism 188 is equipped with friction portion 21f in the outer peripheral surface of the side clutch shaft 21 slided for mobile device 5.Friction Portion 21f has the coefficient of friction bigger than being not provided with the coefficient of friction of the outer peripheral surface of the side clutch shaft 21 of friction portion 21f.As The method of friction portion 21f is set, it may be considered that in side, the outer peripheral surface of clutch shaft 21 coats friction material, as cladding friction material The method of material, it may be considered that method, sprinkling or the method for friction material for being coated with liquid of the friction material of pasted sheet-shaped etc..Or Person, it is also contemplated that it is not provided with the friction material independently of side clutch shaft 21, and the outer peripheral surface of opposite side clutch shaft 21 itself The method for carrying out surface processing.It should be noted that, although Figure 14 carries out the left side clutch axis 21 equipped with friction portion 21f Diagram, but right side clutch axis 21 (not shown) also is provided with friction portion 21f in Figure 14.
As shown in figure 12, in mobile device 5 during mobile on side clutch shaft 21, in the inner circumferential of mobile device 5 When the axle sleeve 5d and friction portion 21f in portion are contacted, apply fixed resistance to sliding Rh to mobile device 5, axle sleeve 5d not with friction When portion 21f is contacted (when contacting with the part other than the friction portion 21f in the outer peripheral surface of side clutch shaft 21), apply resistance to sliding Minimum value R0.The position for the mobile device 5 that resistance to sliding changes between R0 and Rh corresponds to side clutch 6 in connection status The position migrated between off-state, the position that the dump angle T corresponding to turning-bar 11 is T1.
Make to disconnect side clutch 6 mobile device 5 outward (if mobile device 5 is to move left device 5L, It is initially that the resistance to sliding of minimum value R0 increases to fixed resistance to sliding Rh to the left) during mobile.Because of mobile device 5 move outward and make the time point of the contact start of the outer end 5d1 and friction portion 21f of axle sleeve 5d and disconnect this side clutch 6 Starting point it is consistent.That is, (clutch claw 6a, 6b engagement during mobile device 5 is slided but side clutch 6 also engages simultaneously During), resistance to sliding is minimum value R0, and clutch claw 6b will apply mobile device 5 and slide upon leaving clutch claw 6b Then dynamic resistance Rh during 5 outside Slideslip of mobile device, applies the resistance to sliding of fixed value Rh.Even if reaching By the terminal location for the outside Slideslip of mobile device 5 that the brake force that side brake 7 is applied to side clutch shaft 21 is maximum value Time point, the inner end 5d2 of axle sleeve 5d will not be located at the outside (left side in Figure 14) of friction portion 21f, axle sleeve 5d and friction Therefore 21f contact in portion remains to mobile device 5 and applies resistance to sliding Rh.
In the case where (being right side in Figure 14) is mobile inwardly for mobile device 5, in the contact of axle sleeve 5d and friction portion 21f Before the time point of releasing, resistance to sliding Rh all is applied to mobile device 5.By resistance to sliding Rh, side clutch 6 can be inhibited From off-state migrating to connection status.It can inhibit mobile device 5 " flicking " as a result,.In the clutch claw of mobile device 5 6b is engaged the time point started with the clutch claw 6a of distribution gear 22, and the outer end 5d1 of axle sleeve 5d passes through friction portion 21f, then, The resistance to sliding for being applied to mobile device 5 releases (resistance to sliding is minimum value R0).
It can be seen from the above explanation being applied to mobile device by the dump angle T of turning-bar 11 and by friction mechanism 188 The relationship of 5 resistance to sliding can show the dump angle T of turning-bar 11 shown in Figure 12 and be applied to the operation of turning-bar 11 The relationship of the value of resistance.
Then, to Figure 15 (A) as the related another embodiment of construction for applying resistance with the movement to turning-bar 11 And resistance mechanism 189 shown in 15 (B) is illustrated.
Resistance mechanism 189 includes stop mechanism 190.Stop mechanism 190 has sphere 193, for 193 sliding contact of sphere The shell 192 that plate portion 191 and sphere 193 holding opposed with its are used and the spring 194 as compression helical spring.In plate portion 191 are equipped with right side recess portion 191a and left side recess portion 191b.Right side recess portion 191a and left side recess portion 191b is from the surface in plate portion 191 The part of 191c recess.The frame of the vehicle equipped with speed changer 1, mud guard etc. are fixed in plate portion 191.
Shell 192 is fixed on turning-bar 11.Shell 192 includes hook portion 192a and cover 192b.Spring 194 is supported on cover The bottom of 192b.Sphere 193 is pressed by spring 194 towards cover 192b outside.In shell 192, hook portion 192a is fixed on turning-bar 11.When turning-bar 11 is toppled over, shell 192 is also moved together.Plate portion 191 is formed as arcuation, so as to shell 192 at this time Motion track is consistent.
In the case where turning-bar 11 is located at in-line position, sphere 193 is located at right side recess portion 191a and left side recess portion 191b Centre and be not embedded into any of which, connect with the surface 191c in plate portion 191.In addition, even if increasing in dump angle T Time point that is big and reaching angle T1, sphere 193 also connect with the surface 191c in plate portion 191.In the Right deviation chamfering of turning-bar 11 Degree RT reaches the time point of angle T2, and sphere 193 is embedded in right side recess portion 191a.
Reach the time point of angle T2 in the left-leaning chamfer angle LT of turning-bar 11, sphere 193 is embedded in left side recess portion 191b. In the case where dump angle T is that angle T2 or more and turning-bar 11 are further toppled over, sphere 193 is from right side recess portion 191a or a left side Side pocket 191b climbs the surface 191c of upper plate portion 191 and then secondary moves on the 191c of surface.Only to make to be embedded in right side recessed In the case that the sphere 193 of portion 191a or left side recess portion 191b climb the surface 191c of upper plate portion 191, operated by Cai Huixiang operator 11 application value Rh of turning-bar operation resistance R.
In the state that in left and right, side brake 7L, 7R play maximum braking force, sphere 193 is contacted with surface 191c.Sphere 193 on the 191c of surface when sliding, and applies the operation resistance R of minimum R0 to turning-bar 11.
In this way, mobile device 5 from side brake 7 play maximum braking force state begin to return to side clutch 6 from Off-state to connection status when migrating starting point, resistance mechanism 189 before this migrates starting point in a flash to steering Bar 11 applies the operation resistance migrated for inhibiting side clutch 6 from off-state to connection status, prevents " the bullet of mobile device 5 It opens ".
Then, it presses setting operation unit and engagement pressure to increase operating unit the engagement of assisted clutch 8 to be illustrated. As shown in Figure 1, being equipped with assisted clutch engagement pressure setting bar (hereinafter simply referred to as " bar ") in the vehicle for having speed changer 1 The 12 setting operating parts pressed as the engagement of assisted clutch 8.The arm 16 is to corresponding with the operating position of bar 12 Position rotation, as a result, control assisted clutch mobile device 9 position, and by friction plate 8a, 8b of assisted clutch 8 it Between crimping degree be set as with by the corresponding value of value set by bar 12.
Moreover, as shown in Figure 1, the vehicle for having speed changer 1 be equipped with assisted clutch engagement pressure increase pedal (with Under, it is only called " pedal ") 13, so as to increase assisted clutch engagement pressure arbitrarily since through value set by bar 12 Greatly.Pedal 13 is connected mechanically to assisted clutch with the arm 16 of 9 control of mobile device using link mechanism 14.As this The operational version of pedal 13, such as: in the case that vehicle falls into miriness during the turn, via by set by bar 12 Engagement crimping close assisted clutch 8, from turning outside driving be 3 to side clutch 6 disconnection in the state of turning medial Driving be 3 transmitting driving forces, but in the engagement for the assisted clutch 8 for feeling to set herein pressure, the transmission capacity of power is insufficient Be detached from it is muddy when, peremptorily pushes pedals 13, and increase the engaging force of assisted clutch 8 according to its tread-on quantity Greatly.
In the embodiment shown in Figure 18, the non-retainer 68 for trampling position for limiting pedal 13 is set as movable up and down, And this is controlled based on the detection of the operating position of bar 12 and by the electronic control type driver 67 controlled by controller 10 The position of movable stop 68.The connection construction of bar 12, pedal 13 and arm 16 in the embodiment of the Fig. 7 is described in detail.
The hub 13a for being formed in cardinal extremity of pedal 13 is secured to the pivot 70 in the axle center with left and right directions, and with pivot 70 Centered on freely up and down rotate.To construct as follows: arm 13b has been extended downward from hub 13a, when pushes pedals 13 make it When decline, arm 13b is rotated forwards.The dead astern of arm 13b is provided with outside line seat 63, arm 13b top (lower end) with Spring 64 is folded between outside line seat 63.Spring 64 rearward exerts a force to arm 13b, (non-to trample position upwards to pedal 13 as a result, Set) force.Trampling for pedal 13 overcomes the spring 64 to carry out, and when releasing to pedal 13 when trampling, pedal 13 passes through spring 64 applied force, which is rotated upwards and is back to, non-tramples position.
It is also equipped with outside line seat 65 near arm 16, is respectively fixed with the both ends of outside line 62 in outside line 63,65.In outside line 62 inserts have interior lines 61, and the one end 61a from the interior lines 61 that the one end for the outside line 62 for being fixed on outside line seat 63 extends out Pivot is linked to arm 13b, the other end of the interior lines 61 to extend out from the other end for the outside line 62 for being fixed on outside line seat 65 61b pivot is linked to the top of arm 13b.In this way, by interior lines 61, outside line 62 and outside line seat 63,65, constitute by pedal 13 with The link mechanism 14 that arm 16 connects, when pushes pedals 13, arm 13b overcomes spring 64 to rotate and pull interior lines 61, as a result, Make arm 16 to the augment direction rotation of the engagement pressure of assisted clutch 8.
The hub 12a of 12 its cardinal extremity of bar is secured to the pivot 71 of left and right directions, can rotate before and after pivot 71 as a result,.Bar 12 inserts, can be in the front end of bar guiding groove 19 to rear end for example set on the guiding groove of bar in the front-back direction 19 of the console of vehicle In the range of rotate.In this way, its front end position will be become before and after the bar 12 limited by bar guiding groove 19 in slewing area The operating position for the bar 12 set is set as the operation for being set as minimum value (such as 0) for the engagement pressure by assisted clutch 8 The operating position for becoming the bar 12 of back-end location is set as be used for will be auxiliary by " minimum engagement pressure setting position Cmin " of position " the maximum engagement pressure setting position of the operating position for the maximum value for helping the engagement pressure of clutch 8 to be set as in the setting range of bar 12 Set Cmax ".That is, being constituted using following: bar 12 being rotated backward, as a result, the engagement buckling of set assisted clutch 8 It is high.
In bar guiding groove 19, by the operating position shape of bar 12 corresponding with each setting value for engaging pressure of assisted clutch 8 At the notch (sawtooth) for having stop.In the engagement pressure for setting assisted clutch 8, hand is placed on bar 12 and makes it by operator It is rotated along guiding groove 19 to be configured at the corresponding operating position of engagement pressure with target.It is formed in here, being engaging in bar 12 The notch of the operating position, even if hand leaves bar 12 as a result, which can also be fixed on the operating position.As long as in this way, bar 12 It is fixed in the operating position and pedal 13 is trampled into position set on non-, then the engagement pressure of assisted clutch 8 will be maintained at Setting value corresponding with the operating position of bar 12.In the case where changing the engagement pressure of assisted clutch 8, leave bar 12 originally Operating position notch and to other operating positions rotate the bar 12 by the bar 12 engaging in other operating positions pair The notch answered.
The position-detection sensor 66 of the turned position (operating position) of detection bar 12 is equipped near bar 12.Control Device 10 sends command signal to driver 67 based on the detection signal of position-detection sensor 66, and driver 67 is believed according to the instruction Number retainer 68 is positioned.It is to pass through at this time by the position that the pedal 13 that spring 64 exerts a force upwards is crimped on retainer 68 The non-of pedal 13 in the state of the engagement pressure of assisted clutch 8 set by bar 12 tramples position.By auxiliary set by bar 12 Help the engagement pressure of clutch 8 bigger, the position of retainer 68 is lower, non-defined by the retainer 68 as the position to trample The position of the pedal 13 of position is also lower, and the engagement pressure of assisted clutch 8 also can be via link mechanism 14, arm 16 and mobile dress Set 9 and higher.
Pedal 13 is set to the non-assisted clutch 8 trampled in the state of position in this way, setting by the operation of bar 12 Engagement pressure, but when feeling that this engagement pressure is insufficient, operator since this it is non-trample position pushes pedals 13, assist as a result, The engagement pressure of clutch 8 increases to value corresponding with the tread-on quantity of pedal 13 since through value set by bar 12.
As previously mentioned, when being operated to the turning-bar 11 for vehicle turning, the system of the side brake 7 of turning medial The crimping degree of movable plate 7a, 7b depend on the setting of dump angle T of the turning-bar 11 in the range of T2~Tmax.At this point, turning The side clutch 6 of inside disconnects, but when the engagement for setting assisted clutch 8 by bar 12 is pressed, side brake 7 can to via It is 3 a part of driving force come the driving of the turning medial driven is 3 progress that assisted clutch 8, which receives the driving in turning outside, Braking.Here, the driving that driving force is further transferred to turning medial is 3, to side brake in the case where pushes pedals 13 7 resistance increases, become easy side brake 7 friction plate 7a, 7b and assisted clutch 8 friction plate 8a, 8b this two Person generates burn.On the other hand, the scene as pushes pedals 13, it is contemplated that the case where be: the rotation of the axle 4 of turning medial Rotary speed is lower than the speed of imagination, that is, compared with further opening side brake 7 in this state, or even also to improve Assisted clutch 8 engagement pressure come increase from turning outside driving be 3 driving to turning medial be 3 power transmitting Amount, to attempt the rotation speed of the axle 4 of raising turning medial.
Therefore, containing mechanism 18 shown in Figure 16 to Figure 18 is set in turning-bar 11, in case pedal 13 is trampled and side system The work of dynamic device 7 carries out (that is, when the side in them carries out, another party not will do it) simultaneously.By Figure 16 to Figure 18's Embodiment is illustrated the construction of the containing mechanism 18.Mechanism 18 is restrained by being set to the extrusion 54 of the sector arm 52, limiting Component 55 and pivot member 56 processed etc. are constituted.Limiting member 55 is equipped near turning-bar 11, the limiting member 55 warp Pedal 13 is connected to by link mechanism 60, limiting member 55 and trampling for pedal 13 are linkedly switched to limitation steering as a result, The state of bar 11 fascinated.
As shown in figure 16, pivot member 56 is provided near turning-bar 11.Pivot member 56 is to be fixedly installed on Between bracket 56b, 56b of the horizontal plate a pair of up and down of the wall of the driver's cabin of vehicle etc. made of the pivot 56a of sandwiched vertical. Limiting member 55 has the hub 55c of vertical.The limiting member 55 the side of hub 55c in parallel shape be extended have it is upper next To limiting unit 55a, 55b of horizontal plate.Moreover, the limiting member 55 is in the other side of hub 55c, i.e., across pivot 56a The side opposite with limiting unit 55a, 55b is extended the arm 55d for having horizontal plate from hub 55c.
On the other hand, the pivot for being integrally formed at the sector arm 52 of turning-bar 11 is linked in the link mechanism 50 The part state that is formed as extending horizontally when turning-bar 11 is set to in-line position of one end 47a of connecting rod 47 prolong Extending portion 52b, and the extrusion 54 that can extrude the limiting unit 55a or 55b of the limiting member 55 is equipped in its top end part.It will turn The position of extension 52b from in-line position to bar 11 and extrusion 54 when being configured at are in above-below direction are as follows: upper and lower limiting unit The position of middle between 55a.
In addition, in this embodiment, being constituted using following: when the right-hand bend for vehicle rotates turning-bar 11 to the right When, extension 52b and extrusion 54 rotate upwards, when the left-hand bend for vehicle rotates turning-bar 11 to the left, Extension 52b and extrusion 54 rotate downwards.Therefore, the limiting unit 55a of upside is for limiting turning-bar 11 from straight trip position Rotation to the right is set, the limiting unit 55b of downside is for limiting the rotation of turning-bar 11 to the left from in-line position, but the steering The left-right rotation direction of bar 11 and the relationship of upper and lower limiting unit 55a, 55b may be reversed.
Conversely, being located at the top of the limiting unit 55a of upside or the lower section of the limiting unit 55b positioned at downside in extrusion 54 In the case where, i.e., in the case where except the range between upper and lower limiting unit 55a, 55b, extrusion 54 and sector arm 52 Extension 52b will limit the rotation of upper and lower limiting unit 55a, 55b towards sector arm 52.Company as described later is limited as a result, It is connected to trampling for the pedal 13 of limiting member 55.
Outside line seat 59 is provided near the arm 55d of limiting member 55, the one end of outside line 58 is fixed on outside line seat 59, On the other hand, the outside line seat 63 is fixed in the other end of outside line 58.Interior lines 57 are inserted through outside line 58.Interior lines 57 are from being fixed on The one end of the outside line 58 of outside line seat 59 extends out, and one end 57a pivot is linked to the top of arm 55d.On the other hand, Interior lines 57 extend out from the other end for the outside line 58 for being fixed on outside line seat 63, and its other end 57b pivot is linked to and steps on The arm 13b of plate 13.In this way, composition connects limiting member 55 and pedal 13 by interior lines 57, outside line 58 and outside line seat 59,63 The link mechanism 60 connect.
It should be noted that in the embodiment shown in Figure 20, in outside line seat 63, outside line 58 is configured at the upper of outside line 62 Side, in the interior lines 57,61 for extending to arm 13b from the outside line seat 63, interior lines 57 are configured at the top of interior lines 61, but ShiShimonoseki on this System may be reversed.In addition, end 57b, 61b pivot of two interior lines 57,61 is linked to the side of arm 13b, but can also incite somebody to action Their pivots are linked to the other side of arm 13b, alternatively, the end 57b pivot of interior lines 57 can also be linked to the one of arm 13b Side, and the end 61b pivot of interior lines 61 is linked to the other side of arm 13b.
By the composition of link mechanism 60 as described above, with pushes pedals 13, interior lines 57 are pullled by arm 13b, limitation Arm 55d in component 55 horizontally rotates around the pivot 56a of vertical, upper and lower limiting unit 55a, 55b and it is horizontal in integrated Rotation.
Here, in Figure 16 into Figure 18, to the restriction cancellation position X and restriction site of upper and lower limiting unit 55a, 55b Y is shown.When upper and lower limiting unit 55a, 55b is located at restriction cancellation position X, sector arm 52 with turning-bar 11 together During rotation, extrusion 54 will not be extruded in the limiting unit 55a of the upside or limiting unit 55b of downside, that is, sector arm 52 It rotates unrestricted, therefore, turning-bar 11 can be made to rotate, until its dump angle T reaches maximum angle Tmax.Therefore, energy Enough make the lower work in the braking state of side brake 7 of turning medial.
When upper and lower limiting unit 55a, 55b is located at restriction site Y, when turning-bar 11 is poured onto some from in-line position When angle, extrusion 54 can be extruded in the limiting unit 55a of the upside or limiting unit 55b of downside, can not topple over turning-bar 11 more Big angle.That is, the rotation of turning-bar 11 and sector arm 52 will receive limitation.The extrusion 54 is extruded in the limiting unit of upside The dump angle T of turning-bar 11 when the 55a or limiting unit 55b of downside is the angle of the range in T1~T2.Although as a result, The side clutch 6 of turning medial disconnects, but the side brake 7 of turning medial will not be opened.
In addition, during upper and lower limiting unit 55a, 55b is located at restriction cancellation position X, in the flip angle for making turning-bar 11 It spends in the state of side brake 7 of the range to open turning medial that T reaches T2~Tmax, when in order to increase assisted clutch 8 Engagement pressure and when attempting pushes pedals 13, although limiting member 55 can rotating due to trampling because of pedal 13, the limitation of upside The limiting unit 55b limiting unit 55a of upside (for example, in the case where toppling over turning-bar 11 to the right) of portion 55a or downside It will receive the extension 52b of sector arm 52 and the obstruction of extrusion 54 and restriction site Y can not be reached.In this way, due to limitation The rotation of component 55 is hindered, and it is transmitted via link mechanism 60, can also make the rotation downwards of pedal 13 by To obstruction.As a result, in the case where the side brake of turning medial 7 is opened, generated auxiliary clutch is trampled by pedal 13 The increase of the engagement pressure of device 8 is restricted.
In Figure 18, following scheme is shown: pedal 13 squeeze retainer 68 and be located at it is non-trample position when, Upper and lower limiting unit 55a, 55b is configured at the restriction cancellation position X, tramples by pedal 13 to when trampling position D, upper and lower limit Portion 55a, 55b processed are configured at the restriction site Y.Here, as previously mentioned, the non-position of trampling of pedal 13 is by the behaviour based on bar 12 The positioning of the retainer 68 of work presses progress to the engagement of assisted clutch 8 in through range set by bar 12 to limit During setting, need to open side brake 7 in advance.Therefore, with pass through the assisted clutch 8 in range set by bar 12 The corresponding pedal 13 of maximum engagement pressure (being pressed by the way that bar 12 to be configured to engage obtained by maximum engagement pressure setting position Cmax) Position (the non-of pedal 13 defined by the retainer 68 that the lowermost position as being located at movable domain up and down is set tramples position) lower section Until maximum tramples position in the range of, set to position D is trampled.Even if in each implementation of aftermentioned Figure 19 to Figure 28 In example, position D is also trampled using the pedal 13 set in this way.
During the straight trip of vehicle or Ackermann steer angle, the side clutch 6 of turning medial disconnect but side brake 7 not The stage of unlatching increases when trampling pedal 13 to when trampling position D, the engagement of assisted clutch 8 is pressed, more than the setting of bar 12 Maximum value in range.Even if attempt that turning-bar 11 is made further to topple over since the state and side brake 7 is made to work, but Upper and lower limiting unit 55a, 55b of limiting member 55 is configured at restriction site Y, can not also make the dump angle T of turning-bar 11 from this Place starts to reach more than the range of T2, and side brake 7 will not be opened.
On the other hand, pedal 13 be located at it is non-trample position in the state of, upper and lower limiting unit 55a, 55b be located at limitation solution Except position X, when toppling over turning-bar 11 for vehicle turning and its dump angle T being made to reach the range of T2~Tmax, turn The side brake 7 of curved inside works and (becomes on-position).Even if attempting to trample from the state by pedal 13 to trampling position D With attempt improve assisted clutch 8 engagement pressure, extrusion 54, sector arm 52 extension 52b can also hinder limiting member 55 Rotation, upper and lower limiting unit 55a, 55b can not turn to restriction site Y, therefore, it is impossible to trample pedal 13 to trampling position D。
By composition as above, the value of the engagement pressure of assisted clutch 8 be located at can by bar 12 to set in the range of When, turning-bar 11 can be made to topple in the range of from dump angle T2 to maximum angle Tmax, so as to make turning medial Side brake 7 work.Then, by pedal 13 trample make assisted clutch 8 engagement press increase and be more than can In the case where the range set by bar 12, in restraining mechanism 18, limiting member 55 can hinder sector arm 52, extrusion 54 Rotation, the dump angle T of turning-bar 11 can be limited in front of reaching T2 as a result, become the inoperative shape of side brake 7 State.On the other hand, make turning medial toppling over turning-bar 11 in the range of from dump angle T2 to maximum angle Tmax Side brake 7 work state when, restrain mechanism 18 in, sector arm 52, extrusion 54 can hinder limiting member 55 Rotation, pedal 13, which can be limited in, as a result, reaches before trampling position D, can not will attempt increase and be more than can by bar 12 come The assisted clutch 8 of the range of setting engagement pressure increase to this trample position D it is corresponding engagement pressure value.
As described above, using following constitute in the embodiment shown in Figure 16 to Figure 18: being arranged in turning-bar 11 and restrain Mechanism 18, and so that the containing mechanism 18 is connected to pedal 13, and the containing mechanism 18 and connecting rod machine via link mechanism 60 Structure 60 is constituted are as follows: topples over the engagement pressure operated and for making assisted clutch 8 in the turning-bar 11 for opening side brake 7 The stampede operation for increasing and be more than the pedal 13 of setting range tries concurrently to function when carrying out, to limit the behaviour of a side Make.
More than, to shown in Figure 16 to Figure 18 with as the steering operation unit for vehicle turning turning-bar 11, make For for set assisted clutch 8 engagement pressure operating unit bar 12 and for make the engagement pressure of assisted clutch 8 from The connection that setting value starts the pedal 13 increased constructs relevant embodiment (first embodiment) and is illustrated.In Figure 19 to figure Other embodiments (the second to the 5th embodiment) relevant to such connection construction are shown in 26.Hereinafter, to these implementations Example is illustrated.It should be noted that in the attached drawing for indicating each embodiment, to before the explanation of this embodiment into Gone explanation the identical component of component or part or part or component with the same function or part, assign identical Appended drawing reference, and they are omitted the description in principle.

The spring 64 for exerting a force upwards to pedal 13 is folded between the arm 13b and outside line seat 63 of pedal 13.Bullet The applied force of spring 64 is transferred to arm 82 via link mechanism 85, which is exerted a force in a manner of rotating forwards, and is pressed In the pressure ram 12b for the bar 12 for being configured at front.
It should be noted that being equipped with the upper end position in the slewing area for limiting the pedal 13 to be exerted a force upwards by spring 64 Retainer 86.Retainer 86 used in the embodiment shown in the Figure 21 and Figure 22 is fixed.It is squeezed in this only Pedal 13 when moving part 86 is configured at the position that the engaging force of assisted clutch 8 is set as to minimum value (for example, 0).
In the embodiment of the Figure 21 and Figure 22, in the setting for the engagement pressure for improving assisted clutch 8 using bar 12 In the case where value, bar 12 is rotated backward.With the rotation rearward of the bar 12, pressure ram 12b overcomes applying for spring 64 Reinforcing rearward pushes arm 82.The rotation rearward of the bar 12 is also transmitted to limiting member 55 via link mechanism 60, makes to limit Upper and lower limiting unit 55a, the 55b rotation of component 55 processed, but pressure setting position Cmin is being engaged to most from minimum based on bar 12 In the slewing area of the limiting member 55 of the rotation of big engagement pressure setting position Cmax, limiting unit 55a, 55b, which is located at, for example to be illustrated Restriction cancellation position X the side brake 7 of turning medial can be made to work without limitation on the rotation of sector arm 52.
It should be noted that arm 82 is rotated backward together with bar 12 and is rearward pushed during the rotation of the bar 12 The interior lines 83 of link mechanism 85, but since outside line seat 12c is integrally formed at bar 12, interior lines 83 can be together with outside line 84 It moves and is bent.Therefore, interior lines 83 will not relatively be moved relative to outside line 84, from outside line seat 63 to the arm 13b's of pedal 13 The length of interior lines 83 extended will not change.Therefore, pedal 13 can be maintained at be extruded in retainer 86 position it is motionless.That is, In the present embodiment, the link mechanism 14 for being linked to arm 16 is attached at arm 82 independently of pedal 13, in the operating process of bar 12 In, pedal 13 be held in it is corresponding with the operating position that the engagement pressure of assisted clutch 8 is set as minimum value (for example, 0) and The position squeezed with retainer 86.In other words, in the present embodiment, the operation regardless of bar 12 is squeezed with retainer 86 Position is always that the non-of pedal 13 tramples position.
It is fixed on by bar 12 from the minimum pressure setting position Cmin that engages to the maximum range for engaging pressure setting position Cmax In the state of interior any setting position, when pushes pedals 13 trample it from as the non-of the extrusion position with retainer 86 Position decline when, arm 13b is integrally rotated with pedal 13, and arm 13b pulls the interior lines 83 of link mechanism 85, as a result, by arm 82 to Rear rotation.
In this way, extruding of the arm 82 from the bar 12 in the state of being fixed on the setting position (in the notch of guiding groove 19 above-mentioned) Bar 12b is rearward separate, and then rotates backward.The rotation rearward of the arm 82 is transferred to arm 16 via link mechanism 14, To increase assisted clutch 8 engagement pressure direction make mobile device 9 work, on the other hand, also can via link mechanism 60 and It is transferred to limiting member 55, rotates upper and lower limiting unit 55a, 55b.Position D is trampled described in reaching when the pedal 13 trampled When, upper and lower limiting unit 55a, 55b of limiting member 55 reaches restriction site Y, the rotation of the sector arm 52 of turning-bar 11 is limited, The side brake 7 of turning medial is set not work.
On the other hand, when make the operating position of bar 12 from minimum engage pressure setting position Cmin to maximum engage pressure setting When changing in the range of the Cmax of position, the movement of bar 12 is transferred to limiting member 55 via arm 82 and link mechanism 60, limitation Component 55 rotates, still, as long as by pedal 13 be configured at it is non-trample position, upper and lower limiting unit 55a, 55b will be located at for example The state of the restriction cancellation position X of diagram, without reaching restriction site Y, without limitation on sector arm 52, turn of extrusion 54 It is dynamic.In this state, the dump angle T of turning-bar 11 is made to reach the range of T2~Tmax and make the side brake 7 of turning medial After working, when attempting to increase the engagement pressure of assisted clutch 9 when pushes pedals 13, limiting member 55 is also rotated with it, But it can be hindered by the extension 52a of sector arm 52 and extrusion 54, upper and lower limiting unit 55a, 55b can not turn to agretope Set Y.The rotation rearward of arm 82 can be also restricted because the rotation of the limiting member 55 limits, can not be via link mechanism 85 drop to pedal 13 tramples position D, also, increases in the engagement pressure for making assisted clutch 8 and trample position with pedal 13 It, can not be via 14 cursor 16 of link mechanism before setting the corresponding value of D.In this way, passing through pedal when side brake 7 works The increase of the engagement pressure of 13 assisted clutch 8 for trampling to carry out will receive limitation.
It should be noted that it is above-mentioned make bar 12 rotate and make arm 82 rotate when, in link mechanism 85, with interior lines 83 Together, the outside line seat 12c of the end of fixed outside line 84 is also integrally moved with bar 12, but rotates arm 82 in pushes pedals 13 When, interior lines 83 are relatively moved relative to outside line 84, and the outside line seat 12c of the end of fixed outside line 84 will not be moved with interior lines 83 Dynamic, therefore, during pedal 13 is trampled, bar 12 stops (engaging in the notch) setting position at this moment.Therefore, When releasing when trampling of pedal 13, pedal 13 can be rotated upwards because of the applied force of spring 64 and be returned to the non-position of trampling It returns, the interior lines 83 of link mechanism 85 are extruded as a result, are back to arm 82 and are extruded in the fixed bar 12 in the setting position The position of pressure ram 12b.In addition, arm 82 is back to the position as defined by the bar 12 for being located at setting position, as a result, arm 16,55d Also position corresponding with the setting position of bar 12 is back to via link mechanism 14,60.
Then, fourth embodiment shown in Figure 23 and Figure 24 is illustrated.In this embodiment, also with Figure 21 and The 3rd embodiment of Figure 22 is same, and using the arm 82 independently of bar 12 and pedal 13, and arm 82 links via link mechanism 14 In arm 16 and via link mechanism 60 be linked to restrain mechanism 18 limiting member 55.
That is, in the present embodiment, as shown in figure 24, in the pivot 70 of left and right horizontal shape, adjacently attaching has the hub of bar 12 The hub 13a of 12a, the hub 82a of arm 82 and pedal 13, arm 82 are configured between bar 12 and pedal 13.In bar 12, from hub 12a Being extended has pressure ram 12c, is bent and be configured at the part that left and right horizontal extends the front of arm 82.Another party Face is also provided with pressure ram 13c from hub 13a along radially extending for pivot 70 in pedal 13, pressure ram 13c bending and court Extend to its top in left and right horizontal direction, which is configured that in the front of arm 82, relative to the pressure ram The position of the left and right directions extension of 12c is staggered up and down, i.e., pressure ram 12c, 13c does not interfere respective rotation each other.
Be equipped with spring travel limitor 88 near the arm 13b of pedal 13, and the spring travel limitor 88 with Sandwiched spring 64 between arm 13b as a result, exerts a force to pedal 13 to the position squeezed with retainer 86 upwards.Arm 82 is by independence Exerted a force in a manner of rotating forwards in the forcing unit outside the figure of spring 64, as a result, with the pressure ram that is configured at immediately ahead of it 12c, 13c are squeezed.
Extruding when rotating backward bar 12 to increase the engagement pressure of assisted clutch 8, with 12 unitary rotation of bar Bar 12c rearward pushes arm 82.The rotation rearward of the arm 82 is transmitted via link mechanism 14,60 to arm 16,55d.At this During bar 12 and 82 unitary rotation of arm, pedal 13 is maintained at non-the stepping on the extruding of retainer 86 by the applied force of spring 64 Position is stepped on, therefore, pressure ram 13c also stays at the position, and arm 82 is rotated backward far from pressure ram 13c.
It is fixed on by bar 12 from the minimum pressure setting position Cmin that engages to the maximum range for engaging pressure setting position Cmax In the state of interior any setting position, make it from as the extruding position with retainer 86 when overcoming 64 pushes pedals 13 of spring Set it is non-trample position decline when, pressure ram 13c is integrally rotated backward with pedal 13.Here, reaching and leading in pedal 13 Before crossing that the pressure of engagement set by bar 12 is corresponding and trampling position, the rotation rearward of pressure ram 13c be used in fill up with It is discretely configured at the interval between the arm 82 at its rear, when pedal 13, which reaches this, tramples position, pressure ram 13c can be extruded in Arm 82.
Then, crowded when pedal 13 by the way that engagement pressure set by bar 12 is corresponding from trampling position and further declining Compression bar 13c rearward pushes arm 82.At this point, bar 12 is fixed on setting position, arm 82 can squeezing from the bar 12 for staying in the position Compression bar 12c is rearward separate.Pass through the rotation rearward of the arm 82, engagement pressure of the mobile device 9 to increase assisted clutch 8 Direction it is mobile, in addition, when the pedal 13 trampled reach it is described trample position D when, limiting member 55 limits turning-bar 11 The rotation of sector arm 52 makes the side brake 7 of turning medial not work.
On the other hand, by pedal 13 be configured at it is non-trample position during, make turning-bar 11 dump angle T reach T2 The range of~Tmax and after so that the side brake 7 of turning medial is worked, when the engagement pressure for attempting to increase assisted clutch 9 When pushes pedals 13, limiting member 55 is also rotated with it, but can be hindered by the extension 52a of sector arm 52 and extrusion 54, Upper and lower limiting unit 55a, 55b can not reach restriction site Y.The rotation rearward of arm 82 is also because of the rotation of the limiting member 55 It limits and is restricted, become can not to make pedal 13 to drop to trample position D and arm 16 can not be turned to and make to assist clutch The engagement pressure of device 8 increases to the state for trampling the corresponding value of position D with pedal 13.In this way, when side brake 7 works, It is restricted by the increase of the engagement pressure for trampling the assisted clutch 8 to carry out of pedal 13.
Then, the 5th embodiment shown in Figure 25 to Figure 28 is illustrated.As shown in figure 25, from being secured to anterior-posterior horizontal Side is extended with sector arm 90 to the hub 11a of the cardinal extremity of the turning-bar 11 of the pivot 51 of shape to the left and right, in the arc-shaped edges of sector arm 90 A part of edge is formed with locking groove 90a, and when turning-bar 11 is set to linear position, the extrusion 53a of threshold switch 53 can be embedding Enter to locking groove 90a.Embodiment shown in equal with Figure 16 is same, and threshold switch 53 is closed because extrusion 53a is embedded in locking groove 90a Make and break is closed to which directional control valve 32 is set to neutral position N, in addition, turning on the switch because extrusion 53a leaves locking groove 90a To which directional control valve 32 is set to left-hand bend position L or right-hand bend position R.By directional control valve 32 be set as turning position L or Be set as right-hand bend position R be by turning-bar 11 from in-line position to the left, either right side rotation sense determines Fixed (can also be determined based on the sensing of the rotation direction of cam-operated arm 46).
In addition, from the hub 11a of turning-bar 11, the other side is extended and has arm 91 to the left and right, has been provided projectingly promotion in arm 91 Sell 91a.Moreover, having upper and lower arm 93,94 in 51 pivot suspension of pivot, and arm 93,94 is another from pivot 51 to the left and right Side extends to side identical with arm 91.It is configured with the promotion pin 91a of arm 91 between upper and lower arm 93,94 and no matter turns To the rotation fixed pin 92 how all position is fixed of bar 11.Spring 95 is folded between the top end part of upper and lower arm 93,94., Upper and lower arm 93,94 is exerted a force toward each other by the spring 95, that is, by the promotion pin 91a and fixed pin 92 to clamping between the two Direction force.
In the present embodiment, it constitutes are as follows: toppling over turning-bar 11 to the right from in-line position (increases Right deviation chamfer angle RT Greatly), the arm 93 for rotating upside upwards as a result, toppling over turning-bar 11 to the left from in-line position (increases left-leaning chamfer angle LT Greatly), the arm 93 of downside is rotated downwards as a result,.It is described in detail.Arm 91 is rotated in integrated and turning-bar 11, such as Shown in Figure 26, when turning-bar 11 is rotated to the right from in-line position, the promotion of arm 91 pin 91a by the arm 93 of upside upwards Above push away.During this period, the fixed fixed pin 92 in position makes the arm 94 of downside rest on position when turning-bar 11 is located at in-line position It sets, in case the arm 94 of downside rotates upwards with the arm 93 of upside.On the other hand, although not shown, but as shown in Figure 26, as general When turning-bar 11 rotates to the left from in-line position, the promotion pin 91a of arm 91 pushes away down the arm 94 of downside downwards.In this phase Between, the fixed fixed pin 92 in position makes the arm 93 of upside rest on position when turning-bar 11 is located at in-line position, in order to avoid upside Arm 93 rotate downwards with the arm 94 of downside.
In this way, by turning-bar 11 from in-line position to the left or right side rotation, as a result, the top end part of upper and lower arm 93,94 it Between interval expand, spring 95 extend, towards arm 93,94 mutually exert a force.When leaving hand from in-line position to the right or left side When turning-bar 11 after rotation, pushed pin 91a above push away or under push away and the arm 93 rotated or 94 locking towards pin 92 is fixed Arm 93 or 94 rotates, and pin 91a is pushed to be pushed by the arm 93 or 94 of the rotation, and arm 91 is rotated together with pin 91a is pushed, and turns as a result, It is rotated to bar 11.Finally, as shown in figure 25, two arms 93,94 are back to the state that clamping pushes pin 91a and fixed pin 92, Turning-bar 11 is also returned to in-line position.
In the present embodiment, using the line components comprising interior lines 98, outside line 99 as be linked to Vehicular turn driving The link mechanism 50 of the cam-operated arm 46 of 33 control of overflow valve of device group 2.It should be noted that connecting rod machine shown in Figure 16 Structure 50 is following construction: rotating cam-operated arm 46 upwards by the rotation to the left of turning-bar 11, passes through steering The rotation to the right of bar 11 and rotate cam-operated arm 46 downwards, but as previously mentioned, the rotation direction of turning-bar 11 with It's not limited to that for the relationship of the rotation direction of cam-operated arm 46, and it is suitable that link mechanism 50 is configured to the rotation based on arm 93 or 94 Locality rotates cam-operated arm 46.
A side in arm 93,94 constitutes outside line seat to fix the end of outside line 99, another party's pivot in arm 93,94 Link the end of interior lines 98.In the present embodiment, the outside line seat 94a of the end of fixed outside line 99 is formed into (or fixed setting) Arm 94 in downside will be linked to the arm 93 of upside from the end 98a pivot for the interior lines 98 that outside line seat 94a extends out.
Moreover, the outside line seat 94a of the arm 94 in downside, is fixed with the outside line inserted for the interior lines 101 for being linked to pedal 13 102 end, interior lines 101 extend out from outside line seat 94a, and end 101a is fixedly installed in the both ends of limiting member 96 A side (being in the present embodiment lower end).Limiting member 96 be equipped between the both ends of the limiting member 96 direction ( It is roughly vertical direction in the present embodiment) the long hole 96a that is formed longlyer, it is embedded in long hole 96a prominent from the arm 93 of upside The banking pin 93a being arranged out.One of another party's (being in the present embodiment upper end) and vehicle in the both ends of limiting member 96 Partially spring 97 is folded between (the fixed position in position, such as a part of the wall of driver's cabin, instrument board).
As described above, using following construction: being provided with arm 93,94 and spring 95 etc. as making turning-bar 11 The turning-bar 11 being back in the present embodiment of the forcing unit of in-line position increases assisted clutch 8 as being used in Engagement pressure pedal 13 the containing mechanism trampling the work with side clutch 7 and will not carrying out simultaneously, have comprising limit structure The containing mechanism 18B of part 96 and spring 97, and be connected to the limiting member 96 for restraining mechanism 18B via link mechanism 100 Pedal 13.
Link mechanism 100 includes interior lines 101 and outside line 102.The one end of outside line 102 is fixed on the described of lower side arm 94 The outside line seat 63 near the arm 13b of pedal 13 is fixed in outside line seat 94a, the other end.Interior lines 101 are inserted through outside line 102, from outer The end 101a for the interior lines 101 that line seat 94a extends out upwards prolongs engaging in the lower end of limiting member 96 from outside line seat 63 The end 101b pivot for the interior lines 101 stretched is linked to arm 13b.
In addition, in the present embodiment, it is same as the first embodiment of Figure 16 to Figure 18, in the arm 13b and arm 16 of pedal 13 Between be folded with the link mechanism 14 comprising interior lines 61, outside line 62 etc..For with the relationship of bar 12, it may be considered that extremely with Figure 16 The first embodiment of Figure 18 is same, according to the setting pressed by bar 12 engagement of assisted clutch 8 come to restriction pedal 13 The position of the non-retainer 68 for trampling position changes.Or it is also contemplated that with the 3rd embodiment of Figure 21 and Figure 22, The fourth embodiment of Figure 23 and Figure 24 is same, and the retainer 86 of fixing shape is arranged, and no matter passes through bar 12 to assisted clutch 8 Engagement pressure setting how, the non-position of trampling of the pedal 13 squeezed with the retainer 86 is all set as fixed.No matter at which In a kind of relationship, the containing mechanism 18B in the present embodiment is constituted are as follows: no matter whether side clutch 7 works, in bar 12 from institute The auxiliary clutch obtained in the minimum engagement pressure setting position Cmin to the maximum opereating specification for engaging pressure setting position Cmax stated The engagement pressure of device 8 can all obtain.
The long hole 96a that the limiting member 96 in mechanism 18B has up and down direction is restrained, in long hole 96a along upper and lower To long hole 96a be sliding freely embedded be provided projectingly on upside arm 93 banking pin 93a.It is configured across long hole 96a Limiting member 96 upper and lower side in, in the locking end 101a for having foregoing interior lines 101 in the lower end, on the other hand, The locking one end for having spring 97 in the upper end.The other end of spring 97 is engaging in (such as the wall of driver's cabin) being fixed among vehicle Part.In this way, limiting member 96 moves up and down, spring 97 according to the movement of link mechanism 100 and the movement of arm 93 or 94 It is stretched according to the up and down motion of limiting member 96, allows the up and down motion of limiting member 96.
Figure 25, which is shown, to be configured at in-line position (dump angle T=0) for turning-bar 11 and pedal 13 is configured at non-step on The case where stepping on position.Upper and lower arm 93,94 is located at position corresponding with the in-line position of turning-bar 11, and being located in arm 93,94 should During position, the development length of the interior lines 101 from outside line seat 94a to the lower end of limiting member 96 is longest, limiting member Uppermost position in fig-ure in the range of 96 lower movements disposed thereon, spring 97 are the state most compressed, and banking pin 93a is connected to long hole The lower end of 96a.
When the state from Figure 25, pedal 13 is maintained at non-and tramples position, and to the right from in-line position by turning-bar 11 When fascinating, as shown in figure 26, limiting member 96 is maintained at position above-mentioned (spring 97 keeps the state most compressed), the arm of upside 93 are rotated up, and relative position of the limiting member 96a in long hole 96a is moved upward.In this case, making turning-bar 11 Before right turning angle RT reaches maximum angle Tmax, the banking pin 93a being moved upward will not be supported with the upper end of long hole 96a It connects, therefore, the engagement pressure of the right side clutch 7R of turning medial can be made to increase to maximum value, to be 3R and the right side by right driving Axle 4R is set as complete on-position.
On the other hand, shortened and length by the banking pin 93a risen that is rotated up of the arm 93 of upside in this way Therefore the distance of the upper end of hole 96a will limit the movement downwards of limiting member 96.Here, the Right deviation in turning-bar 11 is dynamic When angle RT is located at the range before T2, side brake 7R is not yet turned on, but with the arm of upside at this time 93 upwards Rotation, still sufficiently, ensuring that allows pedal 13 for the distance between upper end of the banking pin 93a and long hole 96a that are moved upward Drop to the slippage of the limiting member 96 for the amount for trampling position D.
But when the right turning angle RT of turning-bar 11 is more than T2 and reaches the state of side brake 7R unlatching, at this time Relative position of the banking pin 93a in long hole 96a get higher, the distance between banking pin 93a and the upper end of long hole 96a shorten, The distance is insufficient for making pedal 13 drop to the slippage for trampling the limiting member 96 of position D.That is being stepped on when trampling When plate 13, limiting member 96 declines, but its decline is hindered by banking pin 93a, so that pedal 13 can not be made, which to drop to, tramples position D, thus, it is suppressed that side brake 7R work in the state of trampling the assisted clutch 8 that carries out by pedal 13 Engage the increase of pressure.
On the other hand, as shown in figure 25, by pedal 13 be set to it is non-trample position and by turning-bar 11 be set to in-line position, this When long hole 96a in banking pin 93a and the distance between the upper end of long hole 96a ensure that dropping to pedal 13 only tramples position It sets the slippage of the limiting member 96 of D, therefore, it can be achieved that is carried out as thinking operator by trampling for pedal 13 The increase of the engagement pressure of assisted clutch 8.
Here, pedal 13 is trampled to when trampling position D simultaneously when turning-bar 11 is maintained at in-line position, such as Figure 27 institute Show, the position of banking pin 93a remains stationary, and interior lines 101 are pulled downwardly, and limiting member 96 declines, and spring 97 extends.Therefore, long The relative position of banking pin 93a in the 96a of hole is moved upward, the contracting of the distance between upper end of banking pin 93a and long hole 96a It is short.By pedal 13 be set to trample position D when banking pin 93a set at a distance from the upper end of long hole 96a are as follows: with upside The rotation upwards of arm 93 and the amount of movement upwards of banking pin 93a generated compares, ensure that until turning-bar 11 Right turning angle T is more than the amount of movement upwards of the banking pin 93a of T1 (that is, in the state for disconnecting side clutch 6R), but right It is insufficient for the amount of movement upwards for the banking pin 93a that the right turning angle T up to turning-bar 11 reaches T2.
Therefore, since making pedal 13 drop to the state for trampling position D, upper side arm 93 turns to turning-bar upwards When 11 Right deviation chamfer angle RT reaches T2, as shown in figure 28, banking pin 93a is crimped on the upper end of long hole 96a, and becoming can not be into one Step rotates the state of upper side arm 93 upwards.In this way, to until the Right deviation chamfer angle T of turning-bar 11 reaches the turning-bar of T2 or more 11 fascinate is limited, to trample by pedal 13 to during trampling position D, the side brake 7R of turning medial will not Starting.
It should be noted that, although not turning lower side arm 94 downwards to turning-bar 11 fascinates to the left from in-line position Dynamic situation is illustrated, but can be illustrated referring to Figure 25 to Figure 28 to the situation.Instantly side arm 94 is with turning-bar 11 To the left when fascinating and rotating downwards, by the interior lines 101 of link mechanism 100 and outside line 102 together in integrated downwards It pushes.Limiting member 96 moves downwards as a result, and spring 97 extends the movement to allow the limiting member 96.At this point, upper side arm 93 are maintained at position when turning-bar 11 to be set to in-line position, and therefore, banking pin 93a is motionless.So banking pin 93a with The distance between upper end of long hole 96a or can rotating down and shorten with lower side arm 94.
As described above, in turning-bar 11 in the case where fascinating to the left, lower side arm 94 is rotated in link mechanism 100, by This, outside line 102 is moved together with interior lines 101, and on the other hand, in pedal 13 in the case where trampling, outside line 102 is remained stationary, Only interior lines 101 are pulled by the arm 13b of pedal 13.Foregoing turning-bar 11 is being rotated to the left and left turning angle LT is arrived In the case where T2, banking pin 93a is at a distance from the upper end of long hole 96a for trampling position D's by dropping to pedal 13 only The movement of interior lines 101 and it is insufficient for the slippage of limiting member 96 that generates, therefore, it is impossible to which dropping to pedal 13 tramples position Set D.In this way, inhibiting auxiliary when pushes pedals 13 when fascinating and side brake 7L being made to work turning-bar 11 to the left The increase of the engagement pressure of clutch 8.
On the other hand, when dropping to pedal 13 to trample position D when turning-bar 11 is set to in-line position, become figure State shown in 27, the distance between banking pin 93a and the upper end of long hole 96a shorten, and the distance is for until turning-bar For 11 left-leaning chamfer angle LT reaches the rotation downwards of the lower side arm 94 of T2 and the slippage of limiting member 96 that generates Deficiency, therefore, it is impossible to which the left-leaning chamfer angle LT of turning-bar 11 is made to reach T2.In this way, made by pushes pedals 13 auxiliary from When increase is pressed in the engagement of clutch 8, even if turning-bar 11 is fascinated to the left, side brake 7L does not work yet.
Then, as can adjust automatically assisted clutch 8 engagement pressure speed changer 1 embodiment, to Figure 29 to Figure 32 Shown in speed changer 1B shown in speed changer 1A and Figure 33 and Figure 34 be illustrated.It should be noted that Fig. 3 is also by as table Show the in-built figure of speed changer 1A or 1B for being illustrated to these embodiments.In addition, by with before this illustrated Component that the identical appended drawing reference of appended drawing reference used in embodiment is indicated or part be set as having with it is above-mentioned The identical component of the component or part or part or identical function in embodiment, and the description thereof will be omitted.
Here, in advance to as can adjust automatically assisted clutch 8 engagement pressure technical background be illustrated.Such as such as Shown in Fig. 1, the adjustment of the tread-on quantity of pedal 13 can be adjusted manually come the engagement pressure to assisted clutch 8 by operator It is whole.But the difference of the various conditions such as state relative to soil, only pass through the judgement of operator, it is difficult to select always optimal Assisted clutch 8 engagement pressure, turning under the turning radius as target may be unable to get because selecting fault. Therefore, such as embodiment below, the difference etc. of the state regardless of soil can all be accurately obtained through steering operating parts Turning under the desired turning radius that the operation of (turning-bar 11) is assumed, in addition, without the need for such turn can be carried out The time of curved operator.

Then, by Fig. 3, Figure 33 and Figure 34 etc., speed changer 1B is illustrated.The present embodiment uses motor driver On the other hand 141 are made as assisted clutch driver AA using driver identical with the motor driver 141 For steering driver SAL, SAR.
Controller 10 based on from turning-bar 11 base portion above-mentioned as input unit potentiometer 11p, switch 112, Dial 113, speed probe 114L, 14R input signal 111s, 112s, 113s, 114Ls, 114Rs decide to move to use The rotation direction and amount of spin of the motor 142 of motor driver 141L, 141R, and as needed to respective motor 142 issue command signal 142Ls, 142Rs.The rotation of the steering respective motor 142 of motor driver 141L, 141R via Worm screw 144, worm gear 146, countershaft 145, pinion gear 146, sector gear 148 are transferred to rotation axis 30, to determine to be based on rotation axis 30 rotation and the sliding position of mobile device 5 generated.
Command signal 142Ls, 142Rs is set to the turned position for for example making respective motor 142 turn to target Voltage, the voltage to rotation axis 30 assign overcomes the respective spring 5a of mobile device 5L, 5R applied force and make the movement fill Set the torque for the sliding position that 5 slide into target.If the voltage becomes 0, the applied force that mobile device 5 passes through spring 5a It is configured at the maximum sliding position of the inside.
In this way, in speed changer 1B, will move left and right the steering of device 5L, 5R control with driver SAL, SAR and Assisted clutch is all set to motor driver 141 with driver AA, as a result, compared with steering control system 1A, without constituting Therefore hydraulic pump 31, directional control valve 32 and variable overflow valve 33 for controlling the hydraulic circuit of steering driver have Conducive to the densification of driver group 2.
The control flow implemented is shown in Figure 35 through the controller 10 in speed changer 1A, 1B formed as described above Figure, is described.Firstly, controller 10 reads the input signal 112s from switch 112, assisted clutch 8 is judged It controls whether to be set as automatic mode (whether switch 112 is set in the position " ON ") (step S01).It is being not set to automatic mode Under the case where (switch 112 is set in the position " OFF ") (being no in step S01), the input signal from dial 113 is read 113s controls assisted clutch with actuator electronic control AA, so that the engaging force F of assisted clutch 114 is and quarter The corresponding setting value Fs in the setting position of scale 113.For example, in the case where dial 13 is set to described " 0 " position, if Definite value Fs is 0, in this case, assisted clutch is set as off working state with actuator electronic control AA, by mobile device 9 Shift fork axle 9a is configured at the maximum sliding position of clutch separation side, disconnects (the dial shown in referring to Fig.1 of assisted clutch 8 13 and mobile device 9).Setting value Fs's and engaging force F in the case that dial 113 is set to described position " Fmax " Maximum value Fmax is corresponding.In this case, assisted clutch is set as working condition with actuator electronic control AA, by mobile device 9 shift fork axle 9a is configured at the maximum sliding position of clutch engagement side, and the engaging force F of assisted clutch 9 is set as maximum (ginseng According to mobile device 9 shown in Fig. 10).
(in step the case where the control of assisted clutch 8 is set as automatic mode (switch 12 is set in the position " ON ") It is yes in S01) under, assisted clutch is set as working condition with actuator electronic control AA, by the engaging force of assisted clutch 8 F is set as being set to the specified value Fv (value greater than 0) (step S03) for automatic mode.Then, in order to detect turning-bar 11 Dump angle T and the input signal 11s of reading potential device 11p.It is 0 i.e. in turning-bar 11 positioned at straight trip position in dump angle T When setting (being yes in step S04), two steerings are set as off working state (step with actuator electronic control SAL, SAR S05).The maximum sliding position that two mobile devices 5L, 5R in left and right are configured in respective inside as a result, (moves left device 5L To slide right end position, device 5R is moved right as sliding left position), two side clutch 6L, 6R engagements.
It should be noted that in this way, judging to make vehicle straight trip based on the detection of the dump angle T of turning-bar 11 still In stage before turning, the engaging force F of assisted clutch 8 is then set as specified value Fv if it is automatic mode setting, as a result, In straight trip driving process, even the axle 4 of a side becomes situation as slipping state, the axle 4 of another party is assigned The a part for the driving force given can also be transferred to the axle 4 of a side via assisted clutch 8, without will become such skidding State, or can be easy to get rid of becoming slipping state.
When turning-bar 11 is rotated (being no in step S04) from in-line position, the steering electronics control in outside of turning Driver SA processed keeps off working state, and the steering of turning medial is made to be worked (step S07, with actuator electronic control SA S13).The workload with actuator electronic control SA is decided to move to according to the dump angle T of turning-bar 11 (if it is hydraulic cylinder 34, then it is the elongation of piston rod;If it is the driver 141 with motor, then the voltage of motor 142 is applied to), The mobile device 5 of turning medial is configured at sliding position corresponding with the workload.It is less than maximum of T max in its dump angle T The case where (being yes in step S06) under, the rotation speed of the axle 4 about turning medial or 4 phase of axle of turning medial For the rotation speed ratio of the axle 4 in turning outside, by target value St corresponding with the dump angle T of turning-bar 11 and according to next It is compared from the calculated measured value Sa of input signal 114Ls, 114Rs institute of speed probe 114L, 114R, in measured value It in the case where there is difference between Sa and target value St, carries out control as follows: being adjusted by adjusting the engaging force F of assisted clutch 8 The whole driving in left and right is the amount of torque transmitted between 3L, 3R, reduces or eliminates the difference.
That is, (allowing model comprising difference there is no poor between measured value Sa and target value St during the turning of vehicle Enclose interior situation) the case where (be yes in step S08) under, vehicle can be turned with the turning radius of target, therefore, be assisted Clutch actuator electronic control AA keeps current working status, and the engaging force F of assisted clutch 8 remains current value (step Rapid S09).
Measured value Sa during the turn was greater than under the case where target value St (being in step slo yes), turning medial Axle 4 rotation speed (rotation speed ratio) it is excessively high and can be turned with the big turning radius of the turning radius than target, Therefore, the workload of assisted clutch actuator electronic control AA is reduced, that is, reduce to be used as being applied to as assisted clutch With the voltage of the command signal 142s of the motor 142 of the driver 141 of actuator electronic control AA, make dialling for mobile device 9 Fork shaft 9a reduces the engaging force F (step S11) of assisted clutch 8 to clutch separation Slideslip, reduces the drive from turning outside Dynamic is the transmitting torque that 3 driving to turning medial is 3.Rotation speed (the rotation speed of the axle 4 of turning medial is reduced as a result, Spend ratio), turning radius is reduced to approach the turning radius of target.
On the other hand, for the purpose of measured value Sa in the situation (being in step slo no) of value St or less, turning medial The rotation speed (rotation speed ratio) of axle 4 is too low and can be turned with the big turning radius of the turning radius than target, because This, increases the workload of assisted clutch actuator electronic control AA, that is, increases to be used as to be applied to and use as assisted clutch The voltage of the command signal 142s of the motor 142 of the driver 141 of actuator electronic control AA, makes the shift fork of mobile device 9 Axis 9a engages Slideslip to clutch, increases the engaging force F (step S12) of assisted clutch 8, increases the driving from turning outside It is the transmitting torque that 3 driving to turning medial is 3.Increase the rotation speed (rotation speed of the axle 4 of turning medial as a result, Than), increase turning radius to approach the turning radius of target.
In the case where the dump angle T of turning-bar 11 is maximum of T max (being no in step S06), by turning medial Steering be set as maximum with the workload of actuator electronic control SA, the side brake 7 of turning medial is set as the shape fully opened State (being that 3 and the brake force of axle 4 are set as maximum by the driving for being applied to turning medial).Meanwhile by assisted clutch electricity consumption Son control driver AA is set as off working state, disconnects assisted clutch 8 as a result, prevents the axle 4 for being applied to turning medial The driving that the brake force of the side brake 7 of turning medial is transferred to turning outside is 3 and axle 4, also, improves auxiliary clutch The durability of device 8.
Then, by Figure 36 to Figure 38, the side clutch that uses in speed changer 1A, 1B, side brake system are carried out Parking brake operation be illustrated.In the past, equipped with applying side clutch, side brake formula steering control system In the vehicle of speed changer, apply following method: vehicle setting be configured to open simultaneously two side brakes in left and right or with Left and right side brake independently assigns brake force to two axles.But the method for opening two side brakes in left and right at the same time In, before in left and right, two side brakes are opened, it may appear that the two side clutches in left and right simultaneously switch off that (axle of two sides becomes non- Driving condition) state, sloping floor open parking brake when, brake beginning delay can become vehicle attitude deflection The main reason for equal.On the other hand, separately setting parking brake in terms of cost, it is unfavorable in terms of the densification of speed changer.
Here, constituting are as follows: the engaging force F of assisted clutch 8 is set as maximum value Fmax, enters two driving systems as a result, 3L, 3R and two axles 4L, 4R are completely by the state of differential locking, when controlling driving is that the side in 3L, 3R is braked, Its brake force is transferred to another party via assisted clutch 8, and two axles 4L, 4R are braked simultaneously, sends out as parking brake Wave function.
That is, having parking brake shown in Figure 36 in the vehicle of speed changer 1A or 1B equipped with the present embodiment and stepping on Plate 115 switches parking brake switch 115a's by the presence or absence of its stampede operation as parking brake operating parts ON,OFF.Then, the input of controller 10 into steering control system 1 indicates the letter of ON, OFF of parking brake switch 115a Number 115s.
In this way, program shown in Figure 38 is embedded in the control flow of the controller 10 of vehicle turning shown in Figure 35, with Just steering control system 1 is functioned as parking brake.That is, when detecting that parking brake switch 115a is in ON When (step S21, ON), controller 10 is by a pair of of steering with the side in actuator electronic control SAL, SAR (in the implementation of Figure 37 Off working state is remained with actuator electronic control SAR) for steering in example and is maintained at its foregoing mobile device 5 Another party's (turn to electricity consumption in the embodiment of Figure 37 and control driver SAL) is set as complete by the maximum sliding position of inside (full) working condition and by its mobile device 5 be configured at outside maximum sliding position.Then, make assisted clutch electronics Driver AA work is controlled, so that the engaging force F of assisted clutch 8 is maximum value Fmax (step S22).When becoming stopping brake When idle (parking brake switch 115a the be OFF) state of device 115, the switch in the control flow of Figure 35 is migrated to The detecting step (step S01) of 112 ON, OFF.
Then, embodiment shown in Figure 39 and Figure 40 is illustrated.In the present embodiment, before carrying out based on vehicle The Corrective control of the engaging force of the assisted clutch 8 of the detection of the heeling condition of rear direction.Firstly, being illustrated to its purpose. In the case where sloping floor is turned, especially in the case where crossing sloping floor, the self weight of vehicle, which is pressed in be located at, inclines The tiltedly axle 4 of the downside in face, in particular, turning path is very for the axle 4 for the turning medial that opposite side clutch 6 disconnects May than imagination track more to the downside deflection of sloping floor.That is, when being turned in the sloping floor that the front is high and the back is low, The axle 4 of turning medial usually can be to the rear deflection as lower position side, on the other hand, when in low early and high after sloping floor When being turned, the axle 4 of turning medial usually can be to the front deflection as lower position side.It is contemplated that by improving turning The cross-country ability to direction of travel of the axle 4 of inside deviates to eliminate this caused by being self-possessed, in order to improve cross-country ability, Ke Yikao Worry increase is via the torque that driving of the assisted clutch 8 on the outside of turning is that 3 driving to turning medial is 3.Therefore, in this reality It applies in the steering control system 1 of example, when the setting of the engaging force F of assisted clutch 8 is set as automatic mode, when vehicle becomes When heeling condition, in order to correct the engaging force of assisted clutch 8, the control of assisted clutch actuator electronic control AA will do it System.
That is, in the present embodiment, as shown in figure 39, as the input unit relative to controller 10, being equipped with inspection in vehicle The inclination sensor 116 of tilt angle in the front-back direction (pitch angle) P of measuring car, and from inclination sensor 116 to controller The detection signal 116s of 10 input tilt angle P.Then, as shown in figure 40, in assisted clutch actuator electronic control AA Engaging force F based on automatic mode ON (being yes in step S01) work and assisted clutch 8 is arranged to the shape of specified value Fv Under state (step S03), controller 10 reads inputted detection signal 116s, judges whether the tilt angle P of vehicle is 0 (packet Containing close to 0 without correct engaging force F allowed band in value the case where) (step S31).
If it is determined that vehicle is in horizontality (tilt angle P is 0) (being yes in step S31), then keep setting At the engagement state for the assisted clutch 8 that engaging force F is specified value Fv, migrate to for the straight trip of vehicle or turning for Servo Control To the reading stroke (step S04) of the dump angle T of bar 11.If it is determined that vehicle is not that (tilt angle P is not horizontality 0) (being no in step S31), then controller 10 issues command signal 142s, to improve to as assisted clutch electronics The application voltage for controlling the motor 142 of the driver 141 of driver AA slides mobile device 9, by assisted clutch 8 Engaging force F increases to value (step S32) corresponding with its tilt angle P.In this way, when make to be initially set to the auxiliary of specified value Fv from When the engaging force F of clutch 8 increases to value corresponding with tilt angle P, migrate to for the straight trip of vehicle or turning for Servo Control To the reading stroke (step S04) of the dump angle T of bar 11.
In the driving process of the vehicle under the automatic mode, the detection signal 116s from inclination sensor 116 is held Continuous to be input to controller 10, in order to adjust the engaging force F of assisted clutch 8, controller 10 is right according to the variation of tilt angle P Assisted clutch is persistently controlled with actuator electronic control AA.On the other hand, in the case where switch 112 is set as OFF (being OFF in step S01), the engaging force F of the variation of the heeling condition regardless of vehicle, assisted clutch 8 is fixed on Setting value Fs (step S02) in dial 113.
