Abstract

The present invention provides a vehicle locking clutch control device for inhibiting the separation deviation of the locking clutch caused by impact independent of vehicle deceleration states so as to improve running performance. Because an initial separation pressure setting unit (108) sets initial separation pressure PLUF according to the inertia moment outputted from an engine (12) as decelerating, and the separation pressure gets smaller with the increasing of the inertia moment, it can inhibit deviation of the locking clutch (26) as separating even though the necessary torque capacities of the locking clutch (26) are different because of different inertia moments of the engine caused by different deceleration states, so as to inhibit the separation deviation of the locking clutch (26) caused by the impact because of gear ratio setting before the vehicle stops, thus properly improving the running performance, where the PLUF is a set hydraulic pressure in the transition of switching the locking clutch (26) from engaging state to disengaging state by a locking-separating unit (104) as decelerating.

Description

Background technique
Having vehicle is known with the vehicle of fluid transmission means, and wherein said vehicle has the lock-up clutch of direct binding motor and automatic transmission with fluid transmission means.For example, disclosed vehicle comes to this in the patent documentation 1, in such vehicle, for fluid transmission means via the transmission of power of fluid (promptly, the lock-up clutch composition is opened (OFF) state from the locking of state), by making lock-up clutch become jointing state (following locking closure (ON) state that also is expressed as sometimes) directly to link motor and automatic transmission improves transmission efficiency.And, in the Reduced Speed Now process of above-mentioned vehicle, for example at the inertia traveling of having closed throttle or closure fully, be that what is called slides in the process, by entering the locking closed state rotation of driving wheel is passed to motor, thereby impel engine rotary speed to follow the input rotational speed of automatic transmission, compare engine rotary speed with the locking open mode thus and be enhanced.By like this, the oil-break zone based on engine rotary speed that particularly suppresses control, the work of for example oil-break to engine oil in the Reduced Speed Now process is extended, thereby fuel efficiency rises.
In addition, the following output hydraulic command value of hydraulic control from the lock-up clutch of above-mentioned locking closed state to the switching transitional period of locking open mode, make shown in Figure 10 of above-mentioned patent documentation 1 (c), hydraulic pressure becomes the predetermined joint of jointing state to press, for example engage fully to press to quickly fall to and separate initial the pressure from making lock-up clutch, then, reduce to gradually and make the predetermined disjoining pressure of described lock-up clutch composition from state.At this moment, it is separated when following that in fact lock-up clutch becomes necessary torque capacity in actual torque capacity, wherein, described actual torque capacity is to reduce to the torque capacity of the reality of the lock-up clutch during the hydraulic pressure command of predetermined disjoining pressure gradually from separating initial pressure, and described necessary torque capacity is to be used to make lock-up clutch not produce the minimum torque capacity of slip.

But, since above-mentioned separation initial press be set as constant, so the actual separated separation of lock-up clutch constantly will change, thereby the disengaging time till actual separation may produce very big deviation.Its reason is: engine rotary speed reduces, is the rotation decline of engine crankshaft along with the deceleration of vehicle under the locking closed state, and along with the minimizing of described engine rotary speed from the inertia torque of the engine crankshaft system of motor output according to the difference of the retardation (the perhaps slip of engine rotary speed) of vehicle and difference, therefore, be used to the necessary torque capacity difference that makes lock-up clutch reality not separated.For example, if will be made as positive side to a side of lock-up clutch input from motor, then when vehicle deceleration is big, inertia torque becomes big to positive side, engine torque (in other words, from live axle through automatic transmission and based on the current gear of described automatic transmission than the torque that is input to the lock-up clutch) under the engine braking state, be negative torque, so the absolute value of the necessary torque capacity of lock-up clutch diminishes.
Therefore, if the retardation difference of vehicle, then in identical hydraulic command value, promptly constant separation initial depression, the actual separated separation of lock-up clutch is constantly with difference, thus as mentioned above, the disengaging time to lock-up clutch reality till separated has deviation.Therefore, setting according to shift cable, speed change before promptly stopping according to vehicle is recently seen, gear ratio is different along with the above-mentioned separation moment, thereby difference is impacted along with the difference of vehicle deceleration state in the separation when the locking closed state becomes the locking open mode, and then may worsen rideability, wherein said shift cable is in order to control before vehicle stops, and promptly drives to the gear ratio of automatic transmission of vehicle stopping period and storage in advance from vehicle deceleration.

Therefore, described electric control device 60 is used to control the hydraulic command value S of locking work piezoelectricity magnetic cell DSU and locking electromagnetic element SL in order to switch opening, closing of lock-up clutch 26 to hydraulic control circuit 86 outputs PFig. 6 is the described hydraulic command value S of expression lock-up clutch 26 when jointing state becomes separated state PAn example, the longitudinal axis is based on described hydraulic command value S PThe working hydraulic pressure P of lock-up clutch 26 LUInstruction hydraulic pressure value.This instruction hydraulic pressure value is with corresponding as the target torque capacity of the target that is used to set actual torque capacity, and wherein actual torque capacity is the torque capacity of the reality of described lock-up clutch 26, in Fig. 6 with hydraulic command value S PBe drawn as its size expression actual torque capacity.Thereby, according to this hydraulic command value S PControl the actual torque capacity of lock-up clutch 26.According to Fig. 6, at t SConstantly, control the work of described locking work piezoelectricity magnetic cell DSU and press P DSUPress P with the work of described locking electromagnetic element SL SL, so that the instruction hydraulic pressure value P of lock-up clutch 26 to press as predetermined joint LUONBecome jointing state.Then, at t SIf exported the separation command of lock-up clutch 26, then control described work and press P constantly DSUPress P with described work SL, make call instruction hydraulic pressure value drop to the initial P of pressure of separation rapidly LUFAfterwards, reduce up to t gradually EConstantly, to reach t 0The instruction hydraulic pressure value P of the predetermined disjoining pressure of conduct constantly LUOFF, lock-up clutch 26 compositions are from state thus.But in fact as long as the above-mentioned actual torque capacity of lock-up clutch 26 is lower than the necessary torque capacity of lock-up clutch 26, then lock-up clutch 26 just begins separated.Therefore, as shown in Figure 6, as instruction hydraulic pressure value from separating initial pressure P LUFBe reduced to instruction hydraulic pressure value P gradually as disjoining pressure LUOFFDuring t RConstantly, actual torque capacity will be lower than necessary torque capacity, thereby become the initial point of separating that described separation begins, and from t SThe time be carved into t RConstantly be that conduct is up to the lock-up clutch 26 reality disengaging time α of separated time.
Above-mentioned necessary torque capacity is to be used to minimum torque capacity that lock-up clutch 26 is not slided, by negative torque with along with engine speed N EReduce and determine from the difference between the absolute value separately of the inertia torque of the engine crankshaft system of motor output, wherein, under the locking closed state of described negative torque when vehicle deceleration travels, and according to the turbine rotational speed N of going into from the reverse pumping of driving wheel T(this moment and input speed N INIdentical) quite, described engine speed N EMinimizing take place along with vehicle deceleration.Thereby, owing to the inertia torque of the engine crankshaft system deceleration regime along with vehicle changes, thus described necessary torque capacity also change, and as based on above-mentioned hydraulic command value S PSeparation initially press P LUFConstant, then the separation of lock-up clutch 26 changes constantly, thereby above-mentioned separation point (representing the identical meaning with disengaging time α) also changes, and promptly described separation point will disperse according to the deceleration regime of vehicle.Therefore, according to determine vehicle stop before the setting of shift cable of speed change of automatic transmission of (driving to the vehicle stopping period) from vehicle deceleration, for example because in the variable v-belt drive 18 of present embodiment, for keeping or restarting engine speed N E(perhaps input shaft rotating speed N IN) and make gear ratio carry out speed Control along with vehicle stops preceding deceleration with increasing, so stop the difference of preceding above-mentioned separation point according to vehicle, gear ratio is got different settings, thereby the size that the separation when the locking closed state becomes the locking open mode is impacted is according to the difference of the deceleration regime of vehicle and difference, and then may worsen rideability.
Fig. 7 is the functional block diagram of major component that is used to illustrate the control function of the control of carrying out lock-up clutch 26 when vehicle deceleration travels that described electric control device 60 is had.In the drawings, travelling state reading unit 110 reads the travelling state of current vehicle from each sensor that vehicle had.For example, read rotating speed (engine speed) N of motor 12 from engine rotation speed sensor 62, turbine speed probe 64, transfer input shaft speed sensors 65, vehicle speed sensor 66, throttle sensor 68, throttle operation amount (aperture) sensor 74, bar level sensor 78, CVT oil temperature sensor 72, air-conditioning switch 92 etc. E, impeller arbor 34 rotating speed (turbine rotating speed) N T, input shaft 36 rotating speed (input shaft rotating speed) N IN, vehicle velocity V, electronics air throttle 80 full-shut position and aperture (throttle opening) θ thereof TH, throttle operation parts such as gas pedal operation amount be bar position (operating position) P of accelerator open degree Acc, speed change lever 77 SH, variable v-belt drive 18 or lock-up clutch 26 etc. the oily temperature T of oil hydraulic circuit CVT, and air-conditioning have or not work etc.In addition, it is vehicle acceleration (also comprising retardation) Δ V that described travelling state reading unit 110 reads vehicle speed variation rate from above-mentioned vehicle velocity V, perhaps from above-mentioned engine speed N ERead engine speed change rate Δ N E
Lock-up clutch control unit 100 comprises locking separative element 104 when locking engaging unit 102 is with deceleration when slowing down, and to described hydraulic control circuit 86 output hydraulic command value S P, so that control the working state of lock-up clutch 26 according to the predefined relation (mapping) shown in above-mentioned Fig. 4.In addition, to described hydraulic control circuit 86 output hydraulic command value S P,,, and, make lock-up clutch 26 become separated state along with opening once again to the fuel feeding of motor 12 for expansion stops to make lock-up clutch 26 become jointing state to the oil-break zone of the fuel feeding of motor 12 so that when the Reduced Speed Now of vehicle.
P is pressed in the work of the described locking work piezoelectricity magnetic cell DSU of locking engaging unit 102 controls during above-mentioned deceleration DSUPress P with the work of described locking electromagnetic element SL SL,, make lock-up clutch 26 at the instruction hydraulic pressure value P that presses as predetermined joint so that when vehicle deceleration travels LUONUnder become jointing state.
P is pressed in the work of the described locking work piezoelectricity magnetic cell DSU of locking separative element 104 controls during above-mentioned deceleration DSUPress P with the work of described locking electromagnetic element SL SL, so that vehicle deceleration is pressed P at predetermined joint when travelling LUONThe working state of lock-up clutch that becomes jointing state down is at the instruction hydraulic pressure value P as predetermined disjoining pressure LUOFFFollowing composition is from state.At described lock-up clutch 26 from jointing state to the transitional period that separated state is switched, locking separative element 104 as above-mentionedly make instruction hydraulic pressure value from predetermined joint pressure P shown in Figure 6 during deceleration LUONQuickly fall to and separate the initial P of pressure LUF, make it reduce to predetermined disjoining pressure P gradually afterwards LUOFF
When locking engaging unit 102 makes lock-up clutch 26 be in jointing state during by above-mentioned deceleration when vehicle deceleration travels, locking separates whether judging unit 106 is that preset vehicle speed is such as below the 10km/h with vehicle velocity V for example, locking separative element 104 makes lock-up clutch 26 become the control of separated state when judging whether to begin by above-mentioned deceleration, promptly whether can begin to make lock-up clutch 26 become the control of separated state, so that when decelerating to of vehicle stops, making motor 12 with the idling speed fast rotational.Can be according to the information of motor 12, and change described preset vehicle speed based on the rotating speed that motor 12 can rotation, also can change described preset vehicle speed, thereby perhaps can also change described preset vehicle speed according to the situation whether the oil-break end-of-job will begin fuel feeding once more based on vehicle deceleration Δ V.
To separate the initial setup unit 108 locking separative element 104 in order suppressing of pressing and to make lock-up clutch 26 become the described deviation constantly of separating switching transitional period of separated state, set described separation from the relation of storage in advance according to the actual vehicle deceleration regime the Reduced Speed Now and initially press P from jointing state by above-mentioned deceleration LUFSpecifically, set according to the variable (parameter) of the related variations with retardation such as inertia torque of the inertia torque of engine crankshaft 13, rotary component and separate the initial P of pressure LUF, the inertia torque of wherein said engine crankshaft 13 changes (difference) according to the deceleration regime of vehicle as mentioned above, and the inertia torque of described rotary component also changes with the same deceleration regime according to vehicle of inertia torque of engine crankshaft 13.The described variable relevant with inertia torque (parameter) expression vehicle deceleration state for example is the retardation Δ V or the engine speed change rate Δ N of vehicle E, or with the retardation Δ V or the engine speed change rate Δ N of this vehicle ERelevant parameter.Fig. 8 is that expression is with input speed N INVehicle deceleration Δ V as intermediate variable initially presses P with separating LUFBetween the figure of an example of the relation of storage in advance.Relation shown in Figure 8 is preestablished into the more little separation of retardation Δ V and is initially pressed P LUFJust big more, and input speed N INP is initially pressed in big more separation LUFJust more little.For example in the solid line of Fig. 8, when retardation (absolute value of retardation) the Δ V of vehicle is greater than Δ V 1Δ V 2The time, if will be from the side conduct positive side of motor 12 to lock-up clutch 26 inputs, then the inertia torque of engine crankshaft 13 will increase to positive side, and engine torque T E(in other words, from driving wheel through variable v-belt drive 18 and based on the current gear of this variable v-belt drive 18 than the torque that is input to the lock-up clutch 26) be negative torque during Reduced Speed Now at the engine braking state, so the absolute value of the necessary torque capacity of lock-up clutch 26 will diminish.Thereby, from Fig. 6 also as can be known, when necessary torque capacity diminishes, separate the initial P of pressure as long as make LUFFor than P LUF1Little value P LUF2Get final product.Above-mentioned Fig. 8 is to be exactly predefined according to such relation.
Fig. 9 is the flow chart that is used to illustrate the Control work major component of electric control device 60, the major component of described Control work promptly be the working state of lock-up clutch 26 when vehicle deceleration travels from the Control work of jointing state when separated state is switched, Figure 10 is the sequential chart that is used to illustrate described Control work.In Fig. 9, among the step that locking engaging unit 102 is corresponding with described slow down the time (below omission " step " speech) SA1, P is pressed in the work of control locking work piezoelectricity magnetic cell DSU DSUPress P with the work of described locking electromagnetic element SL SL,, make lock-up clutch 26 press P as predetermined joint so that when vehicle deceleration travels LUONUnder become jointing state.For example, be preferably in when carrying out oil-break work in the vehicle deceleration running process, carry out the control among the described SA1,, thereby further improve fuel efficiency so that enlarge described oil-break zone.
Then, in the SA2 corresponding, for example by judging engine speed N with described locking separative element 106 E(also can input speed N when the locking closed state IN) whether be that predefined preset vehicle speed such as 10km/h judges whether to make the lock-up clutch 26 that is in jointing state to become separated state to get off.When being judged as of described SA2 negates, finish this routine, when for certainly the time, with described travelling state reading unit 110 and described the separation among the corresponding SA3 of initial pressure setup unit 108, read vehicle deceleration Δ V by the vehicle velocity V that reads from vehicle speed sensor 66 as vehicle speed variation rate.Then, initially press P based on above-mentioned vehicle deceleration Δ V shown in Figure 8 with separating LUFBetween relation set and separate the initial P of pressure LUFFor example, when vehicle deceleration Δ V be Δ V 1The time separate the initial P of pressure LUFBe set to P LUF1, when vehicle deceleration Δ V is and Δ V 1Compare the big Δ V of its absolute value 2The time separate the initial P of pressure LUFBe set to P LUF2
Then, among the SA4 that locking separative element 104 is corresponding with described slow down the time, for the working state that makes lock-up clutch 26 becomes separated state from jointing state, P is pressed in the work of control locking work piezoelectricity magnetic cell DSU DSUPress P with the work of described locking electromagnetic element SL SL, so that described instruction hydraulic pressure value is at first being pressed P from predetermined joint LUONBecome the separation of setting at above-mentioned SA3 and initially press P LUFAfterwards, be reduced to predetermined disjoining pressure P gradually LUOFFFor example, when vehicle deceleration Δ V shown in the solid line of Figure 10 be Δ V 1The time, make described instruction hydraulic pressure value initially press P for the separation of setting at above-mentioned SA3 LUF1(t SConstantly), be reduced to predetermined disjoining pressure P afterwards gradually LUOFF(t E1Constantly).At this moment, in fact lock-up clutch 26 is being represented as its working hydraulic pressure P LUActual torque capacity be lower than (the retardation Δ V of the necessary torque capacity shown in the solid line 1) the moment begin to separate.That is t, RConstantly become separation point.Yet, be Δ V if work as vehicle deceleration Δ V 2The time also with Δ V 1The time similarly get the instruction hydraulic pressure value shown in the solid line, then because lock-up clutch 26 is being represented as its working hydraulic pressure P LUActual torque capacity be lower than (the retardation Δ V of the necessary torque capacity shown in the dot and dash line 2) the moment begin to separate, so separation point is t R' constantly.Therefore, when vehicle deceleration Δ V be Δ V 2The time, if shown in the dot and dash line of Figure 10, make described instruction hydraulic pressure value initially press PLU2 (t for the separation of setting at above-mentioned SA3 SConstantly), be reduced to predetermined disjoining pressure P afterwards gradually LUOFF(t E2Constantly), then with above-mentioned retardation Δ V 1Situation the same, separation point is t RConstantly.The relation of Fig. 8 is to make that as above-mentioned the deviation of separation point and the difference of vehicle deceleration Δ V are irrespectively suppressed to set.In addition, vehicle deceleration Δ V shown in Figure 8 also can be and the relevant parameter of this retardation Δ V, for example can be output shaft relative speed variation Δ N OUTDeng.
In addition, P is initially pressed in described separation LUFExcept the retardation Δ V of vehicle, can also be shown in the dot and dash line of Fig. 8, according to input speed N INSet.In addition, the input speed N here INAlso can be and this input speed N INRelevant parameter for example can be engine speed N E, impeller arbor 34 rotating speed (turbine rotating speed) N T, input shaft 36 rotating speed (input shaft rotating speed) N IN, and output shaft rotational speed N OUTDeng.By like this, owing to also can consider according to input speed N INDifference and different described negative torques is set and is separated the initial P of pressure LUFSo, can more correctly hold the torque that is input in the lock-up clutch 26, thereby more correctly being reflected to, the necessary torque capacity when can be with lock-up clutch 26 separated separates the initial P of pressure LUFIn.
Figure 11 is expression engine rotary speed variance ratio Δ N EInitially press P with separating LUFBetween the predefined figure of an example of the relation of storage in advance, described relation is used to initially press setup unit 108 to replace vehicle deceleration Δ V and according to engine speed change rate Δ N by above-mentioned separation ESet and separate the initial P of pressure LUFThe time embodiment in, Figure 11 is the figure suitable with Fig. 8.It is that vehicle deceleration Δ V is replaced with engine rotary speed variance ratio Δ N that Figure 11 compares with Fig. 8 E, with input shaft rotating speed N INReplace with the figure of vehicle velocity V (not shown), Figure 11 can replace Fig. 8 and be used.
In addition, Figure 12 is the flow chart of another mode of execution that is used to illustrate the Control work major component of electric control device 60, the major component of described Control work promptly be the working state of lock-up clutch 26 when vehicle deceleration travels from the Control work of jointing state when separated state is switched, this figure is the figure suitable with Fig. 9.In Figure 12, have only SB3 different with the SA3 of Fig. 9, remaining SB1, SB2, SB4 SA1, SA2, the SA4 with Fig. 9 respectively are identical.Described SB3 and the SA3 of Fig. 9 equally are with above-mentioned travelling state reading unit 110 and separate the corresponding step of initial pressure setup unit 108, by the engine speed N that reads from engine rotation speed sensor 62 ERead engine speed change rate Δ N EThen according to described engine speed change rate Δ N shown in Figure 11 EInitially press P with separating LUFBetween relation set and separate the initial P of pressure LUFFor example, as engine speed change rate Δ N EBe Δ N E1The time separate the initial P of pressure LUFBe set to P LUF1, as engine speed change rate Δ N EFor with Δ N E1Compare the big Δ N of its absolute value E2The time separate the initial P of pressure LUFBe set to P LUF2
Thus with the embodiment of Fig. 9 similarly, set and separate the initial P of pressure LUF, make the deviation and the engine speed change rate Δ N of separation point EDifference irrespectively suppressed.In addition, engine speed change rate Δ N shown in Figure 11 EAlso can be and this engine speed change rate Δ N ERelevant parameter for example can be input shaft rotating speed variance ratio Δ N INDeng.
In addition, P is initially pressed in described separation LUFExcept engine speed change rate Δ N EOutside, can also set according to vehicle velocity V.In addition, the vehicle velocity V here also can be the parameter relevant with this vehicle velocity V, for example can be the output shaft rotational speed N OUTDeng.By like this, different described negative torques is set and is separated the initial P of pressure owing to also can consider according to the difference of vehicle velocity V LUFSo, can more correctly hold the torque of input in the lock-up clutch 26, thereby more correctly being reflected to, the necessary torque capacity when can be with lock-up clutch 26 separated separates the initial P of pressure LUFSet middlely and separate the initial P of pressure LUF, perhaps set and separate the initial P of pressure according to the optimum value in the vehicle velocity V LUF, wherein said optimum value is to wait by the test of carrying out in advance to obtain.
As mentioned above, according to present embodiment, when the Reduced Speed Now of vehicle, since by separate initial press setup unit 108 (SA3, SB3) according to and along with the inertia torque of described Reduced Speed Now from motor 12 outputs, be the relevant parameter of inertia torque of engine crankshaft 13 systems, the relative speed variation Δ N of the motor 12 when vehicle deceleration Δ V when for example vehicle deceleration travels or vehicle deceleration travel E, or the parameter relevant with these set and separate initial pressure P LUF, therefore,, also can suppress the actual separated separation deviation constantly of lock-up clutch 26 even because the difference of the inertia torque of engine crankshaft 13 systems and the necessary torque capacity difference of lock-up clutch, P is initially pressed in wherein said separation LUFBe that locking separative element 104 (SA4, SB4) become the switching transitional period of separated state lock-up clutch 26 from jointing state by deceleration the time, be used for making from making lock-up clutch 26 press P for the predetermined joint of jointing state LUONThe rapid setting hydraulic pressure that descends.Thus, with because the inertia torque of the different engine crankshaft that brings 13 systems of vehicle deceleration state different, promptly have nothing to do with the different of relevant parameter of this inertia torque, can make as disengaging time α stable up to the separated time of lock-up clutch 26 reality, thereby owing to stop the speed Control of preceding variable v-belt drive 18 along with vehicle, be that the deceleration of vehicle before stopping to increase gear ratio, set in this wise vehicle before stopping gear ratio and deviation that the separation of the lock-up clutch 26 that produces is impacted is suppressed, and then can suitably improve rideability.
In addition, according to present embodiment, owing to initially press the input speed N of setup unit 108 (SA3) according to above-mentioned vehicle deceleration Δ V and variable v-belt drive 18 by above-mentioned separation INSet above-mentioned separation and initially press P LUFSo, can be with input speed N by described variable v-belt drive 18 INThe difference of negative torque of the motor 12 that brings of difference more correctly be reflected in the necessary torque capacity.
In addition, according to present embodiment, in the 5th invention, owing to initially press the relative speed variation Δ N of setup unit 108 (SB3) according to above-mentioned motor 12 by above-mentioned separation EAnd vehicle actual vehicle speed V sets above-mentioned separation and initially presses P LUFSo the difference that the motor that is brought by the difference of described vehicle velocity V can be born torque more correctly is reflected in the necessary torque capacity.
