Definitions

  • the invention relates to a dual clutch transmission, in particular of a motor vehicle, in particular with a hydraulic circuit for cooling the dual clutch transmission, wherein the hydraulic circuit includes at least one pump for conveying a hydraulic medium flow, at least one cooler for cooling the hydraulic medium flow, and a volume control valve for adjusting the hydraulic medium flow for at least one cooling system associated with clutches of the dual clutch transmission.
  • Dual clutch transmissions are preferably used in passenger cars.
  • a dual clutch transmission generally includes two coaxially disposed transmission input shafts, which are each associated with a sub-transmission.
  • a respective clutch is associated with each of the transmission input shafts, via which the transmission input shaft of the respective sub-transmission can be frictionally coupled to the output of an engine, preferably an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle.
  • a first of the two sub-transmissions typically includes the odd gears, whereas a second of the two sub-transmissions includes the even gears and the reverse gear.
  • one of the sub-transmissions is active while driving, which means that the transmission input shaft associated with this sub-transmission is coupled to the engine via its associated clutch.
  • a gear providing a current gear ratio is engaged in the active sub-transmission.
  • a controller determines whether the next higher or next lower gear is to be engaged depending on the driving situation. This gear which is probably used next is selected in the second, inactive sub-transmission.
  • the clutch of the inactive sub-transmission is engaged, while the clutch of the active portion is disengaged.
  • opening of the clutch of the active sub-transmission and closing the clutch of the inactive sub-transmission overlap so that the flow of force from the engine to the drive shaft of the motor vehicle is not at all or only briefly interrupted.
  • the gear expected to be used next can be engaged in the now inactive sub-transmission.
  • the gears are engaged and disengaged via elements, preferably via the shift rails that are actuated by hydraulic cylinders, i.e. the aforementioned switching cylinders, which have already been mentioned above.
  • the hydraulic cylinders are preferably formed as double-acting hydraulic cylinders, in particular synchronous cylinders or differential cylinders, so that preferably two gears may be associated with each switching cylinder. Alternatively, single-acting hydraulic cylinders may also be provided.
  • the hydraulic cylinders operating the elements, in particular the shift rails are also referred to as gear selector cylinders.
  • a gear selector cylinder designed as a synchronous cylinder to which in particular two gears are assigned, has preferably three switching positions, wherein in a first switching position a first defined gear is engaged, in a second switching position another defined gear is engaged, and in a third switching position none of the two above-mentioned gears is engaged.
  • the clutches associated with the two sub-transmissions are also hydraulically actuated, i.e. closed or opened.
  • the clutches each close when hydraulic pressure is applied, whereas they open when no hydraulic pressure is applied, i.e. when pressure is relieved in a hydraulic cylinder associated with the respective clutch which is also referred to as clutch cylinder, as mentioned above.
  • Cooling of the clutches is typically attained with a fixed displacement pump driven by an internal combustion engine. At least one control or control valve is used for adequately cooling the clutch. The accuracy of the flow rate used for cooling the clutch strongly depends on the employed control or control valve.
  • the hydraulic medium conveyed by the pump is cooled by a cooler and then supplied to a cooling system associated with the clutches, so that only a single volume flow rate of the cooling medium is provided to both clutches. The common cooling of the clutches thereby worsens the control performance of couplings.
  • EP 1637756 A1 discloses a system where a volume control valve is connected upstream of the clutches, which supplies in a first switching position a lubricant to one clutch and a coolant to the other clutch, and supplies in another switching position a lubricant to one clutch and a coolant to the other clutch.
  • supplying coolant to the clutches depends here always on the lubrication of couplings, so that neither the clutch cooling nor the lubrication can be optimized.
  • volume control valves must be calibrated to allow a control command to cause a corresponding state of the volume control valve or a desired distribution/release of one or more hydraulic medium flows.
  • the switching position especially of solenoid valves is determined by a current command, wherein the position and hence the quantity of hydraulic medium is adjusted depending on the magnitude of the current command.
  • the calibration of such volume control valves is complicated and correspondingly expensive.
  • the volume control valve is constructed as a switching valve having at least two switching position ranges, wherein the hydraulic medium flow is conveyed in a first switching position range with a constant flow cross-section to a cooling system associated with a first of the clutches and in a second switching position range with a constant flow cross-section to a second cooling system associated with a second of the clutches, wherein the total switching range of the switching valve or volume control valve is substantially formed by the switching position ranges and only a narrow transition region between neighboring shift position ranges is provided.
  • the switching position ranges with a constant flow cross-section refer to a respective actuation travel of the switching valve, within which the control valve can be actuated/adjusted without causing the volume flow or a set flow cross-section to change.
  • the switching valve can be switched into the respective switching position range without changing the switching state with respect to the set fluid connection.
  • the total switching position range represents here the range over which the control valve is overall adjustable.
  • the overall switching position range is divided into the switching position ranges and the respective transition region located between adjacent switching position ranges. According to the invention, the transition region is rather narrow, so that the switching position ranges form substantially the entire switching range, so that the available switching position ranges within which the flow of the hydraulic medium is not affected by actuation of the switching valve are as large as possible.
  • the wide switching position ranges ensure that the desired switching position of the switching valve can be attained even when setting a control signal having tolerances and when the switching valve has production-related tolerances.
  • the shifting position ranges are then guaranteed to be greater than the expected tolerances. Because the switching valve is unable to individually adjust the respective flow volume and instead is only intended to open and close a connection, so that there is ultimately a digital operation, a safe operation of the dual clutch transmission is thus guaranteed in a particularly simple and cost-effective manner even without prior calibration of the flow control valve.
  • the transition region is designed to be so narrow that an almost constant flow cross-section is attained over the entire switching position range of the switching valve. This prevents backpressure spikes in a switchover.
  • Adjustment or actuation of the switching valve always refers to actuating or displacing a movable valve element of the switching valve, which cooperates for example with one or more flow-through openings in a stationary housing to open one or more flow cross-sections.
  • a movable valve element of the switching valve which cooperates for example with one or more flow-through openings in a stationary housing to open one or more flow cross-sections.
  • a gate valve or rotary vane valve is actuating or displacing a movable valve element of the switching valve.
  • the switching valve is designed as a 4/3-way switching valve or as a 3/2-way switching valve.
  • the 3/2-way proportional valve has three ports and two switching position ranges with a narrow transition, wherein a first port is connected to the pressure side of the pump, a second port is connected to the first cooling system, and a third port is connected to the second cooling system.
  • the 4/3-way switching valve has at least one additional port, and an additional third switching position range, wherein the additional port is connected to a return conduit leading to a tank providing the hydraulic medium.
  • the switching valve embodied as a 4/3-way switching valve conveys the hydraulic medium flow in a third shifting position range to a tank providing the hydraulic medium.
  • the volume control valve is disposed downstream of the cooler, the hydraulic medium can be cooled and returned to the tank by switching the switching valve into its third shifting position range, thereby generating a small cooling circuit for cooling the hydraulic medium residing in the tank.
  • the volume control valve and the switching valve can be controlled by an electric motor and/or electromagnetically.
  • an electric motor and/or an electromagnetic actuator is advantageously associated with the volume control valve, which can then be brought quickly and accurately to the desired shifting position range. Due to the advantageous embodiment of the switching valve with shifting position ranges having a constant flow cross section, wide flow ranges are available within which the switching valve can be brought into the desired switching position. The wide distribution of the current ranges eliminates the need for calibration, since the flow ranges are for switching the positions or position ranges are greater than the expected tolerances.
  • the pump is operatively connected to an in particular variable-speed electric motor.
  • the design of the volume control valve as a switching valve initially eliminates the possibility to affect the quantity of the hydraulic medium flow.
  • the capacity of the pump and hence the flow volume and the resulting quantity of the conveyed hydraulic medium can be adjusted so that preferably the electric motor is controlled for influencing the quantity of the hydraulic medium flow, wherein in particular the speed of the electric motor is controlled or regulated accordingly.
  • a manually operable separation element is interposed between the pump and the electric motor.
  • the drive shaft of the pump is or can be operatively connected to an output shaft of the drive or of the electric motor by way of the separating element.
  • the separating element is preferably an actuatable clutch or an overrunning clutch. The pump can then be switched off by actuating the clutch or by changing the direction of rotation, so as to interrupt transport of the hydraulic medium.
  • the second switching position range may be located between the first switching position range and the third switching position range.
  • the switching position ranges assigned to the cooling systems are then adjacent to each other, so that the cooling systems can be supplied quasi simultaneously with hydraulic medium by pulsed control of the switching valve.
  • the third switching position range is located between the first switching position range and the second switching position range. This prevents hydraulic medium from flowing to the other cooling system during pulsed actuation of the switching valve for setting a desired hydraulic medium flow for only one of the clutches or cooling systems. Instead, during pulsed control, the hydraulic medium flow that is not conveyed to the respective cooling system is transported into the tank.
  • the quantity of the hydraulic medium conveyed to the first and/or second cooling system is preferably determined by a pulsed control of the switching valve and/or by adjusting the rotation speed of the electric motor.
  • FIG. 1 shows a hydraulic circuit 1 which is used to actuate, in particular to couple and engage and disengaging gears of a dual clutch transmission and to cool the transmission.
  • the hydraulic circuit 1 includes a tank 3 , serving in particular as a reservoir or sump for a hydraulic medium used for operation and cooling, in which the hydraulic medium is preferably stored without pressure.

  • the pump 9 is preferably connected to the electric motor 5 by way of a separating element 11 . Accordingly, the pump 9 can be decoupled from the electric motor 5 , so that the pump 9 is not running when the electric motor 5 is running.
  • the separation element 11 is preferably formed as a clutch or an overrunning clutch, wherein in the second situation the direction of rotation of the electric motor 5 determines whether hydraulic medium is conveyed by the pump 9 or not.
  • the first pump 7 and the second pump 9 are each connected via a corresponding conduit 13 , 15 to a junction 17 into which an additional conduit 19 opens.
  • This additional conduit 19 connects the tank 3 to the junction 17 through a suction filter 21 .

  • the sub-transmission circuits 87 and 139 for controlling the gear actuating cylinders 155 , 155 ′ and 157 , 157 ′, respectively, are constructed identically, so reference is made to the preceding description.
  • the outlet of the pump 9 is connected to a conduit 181 which leads to the hydraulic sub-circuit 59 which is preferably used in particular for cooling the clutches K 1 , K 2 .
  • the conduit 181 runs via a cooler 183 to a volume control valve 185 .

  • the hydraulic sub-circuit 59 can be supplied via the conduit 57 with hydraulic medium conveyed by the pump 7 , when the switching valve 35 is in its second switching state. Furthermore, a bypass 195 branches off from the junction 193 which has a differential pressure valve 197 and arranged parallel to the cooler 183 . The differential pressure valve 197 opens the bypass in the direction of the volume control valve 185 under overpressure. The cooler 183 can thus be bypassed.
  • the volume control valve 185 is designed as 4/3-way switching valve having ports 199 , 201 , 203 , 205 and 207 .
  • the port 199 is connected to the conduit 181 via the cooler 183 and the differential pressure valve 197 , respectively, as is the port 201 which is connected to the conduit 181 via a conduit 209 and a junction 211 .
  • the ports 199 and 201 thus form a common port of the flow control valve 185 because they are both connected to the conduit 181 downstream of the cooler 183 .
  • Two ports 199 , 201 are shown only for sake of clarity; in actuality, only a single port, for example 199 or 201 , is provided for the conduit 181 on the volume control valve 185 , wherein according to an alternative embodiment, the volume control valve 185 may in fact be formed as 5/3-way switching valve with the two separate ports 199 , 201 .
  • the port 203 is connected to a conduit 213 which leads via a pressure filter 215 to the tank 3 .
  • the pressure filter 215 can be bypassed by a bypass 217 with a differential pressure valve 219 that opens in the direction of the tank 3 .

  • the port 207 is connected to a second cooling system 223 particularly for the second clutch K 2 .
  • the ports of the switching valve are constructed so as to form a plurality of switching position ranges within which the respective unobstructed flow cross section does not change.
  • a constant flow cross-section therefore exists in each of the switching position ranges, so that no change occurs at the ports 199 , 201 , 203 , 205 and 207 when the switching valve is actuated in the respective switching position range.
  • the transitions between adjacent switching position ranges are narrow, in particular compared to the width of the switching position ranges, so that the largest possible switching position ranges are formed in relation to the total switching range of the switching valve.
  • the flow cross-section is preferably nearly constant over the entire switching control range.
  • the port 201 is connected to the port 203 while the ports 199 , 205 and 207 are connected blind.
  • the total hydraulic medium flow flowing in the hydraulic conduit 181 and through the cooler 183 , respectively, is hence conveyed via the port 201 , 203 into conduit 213 and thus into the tank 3 via the pressure filter 215 .
  • the ports 199 and 205 are connected to each other, while the ports 201 , 203 and 207 are connected blind.
  • the entire hydraulic medium flow arriving at the volume control valve 185 is supplied to the first cooling system 221 .
  • a third switching position range of the volume control valve 185 In a third switching position range of the volume control valve 185 , the ports 199 and 207 connected together. The ports 201 , 203 and 205 are connected blind. In this state or in every switching position of the volume control valve 185 within the third switching position range, the entire hydraulic medium flow flowing in the conduit 181 is then supplied to the second cooling system 223 .
  • the volume control valve 185 is designed as a switching valve, so that no intermediate states can be set which would enable control of the volume flow to the cooling systems 221 , 223 or to the pressure filter 215 .
  • the volume control valve 185 may be operated in pulsed mode by fast switching back and forth, i.e. a pulsed operation of the volume control valve 185 , wherein at least one switching position within one of the three switching position ranges can be assumed for a short time.
  • the time-averaged volume flow is then also controlled or regulated in this mode of operation, which is supplied to the cooling systems 221 , 223 or the pressure filter 215 and hence to the tank 3 .
  • FIG. 1 shows that additionally a hydraulic medium flow of the conduit 57 may replace the hydraulic medium flow in the conduit 181 and be supplied to the hydraulic sub-circuit 59 .
  • the conduit 57 may convey hydraulic medium.
  • the proportional valves 101 , 101 ′, 141 , 159 , 159 ′, 179 , 179 ′ are each electrically proportionally adjustable particularly against a spring force.
  • the conduit 57 opens into the hydraulic sub-circuit 59 , more precisely into the conduit 181 downstream of the pump 9 .
  • the conduit 57 opens into the conduit 181 preferably downstream of the cooler 183 .
  • the total flow rate through the cooler 183 is reduced by supplying the hydraulic medium from the high pressure circuit into the hydraulic sub-circuit 59 according to the alternative embodiment.
  • the pressure drop across the cooler 183 is reduced due to the reduced volume flow, thereby also reducing the necessary drive power for the pumps 7 and/or 9 .
  • the drive energy required for driving the electric motor 5 is likewise reduced by reducing the backpressures.
  • the pump 9 can be connected directly to the electric motor 5 with a sufficiently large reduction of the backpressures or of the pressure level—irrespective of how this reduction is achieved—, i.e. the clutch 11 can be eliminated.
  • the pressure filter 215 is arranged in the conduit 213 not between the volume control valve 185 and the tank 3 , but preferably in the conduit 181 , in particular between the cooler 183 and the volume control valve 185 .
  • the conduit 57 opens into conduit 181 downstream of the pressure filter 215 .
  • the switching position ranges are interchanged such that in the first switching position range the ports 199 and/or 201 are connected to the port 205 or 207 while the other ports of the volume control valve 185 are connected blind, in the second switching position range the connections 201 and/or 199 are connected to the port 3 while the other ports are connected blind, and in the third switching position range the ports 199 and/or 201 are connected to the port 207 or 205 while the remaining ports are connected blind.
  • Interchanging the switching positions prevents, when using pulsed control for the volume control valve 185 for setting a desired hydraulic medium flow for one of the cooling systems 221 and 223 , respectively, the hydraulic medium from flowing also to the other cooling system 223 or 221 . Instead, the volume flow that is not conveyed to the respective cooling system 221 or 223 under pulsed operation is directed into the tank 3 .
  • the ports 199 and 201 are always to be understood as a common or sole port for the conduit 181 to the volume control valve 185 , so that in fact only one of the two ports 199 , 201 is provided on the volume control valve 185 .
