- the torque ratio STr can be indirectly converged.
- the frequency f 0 of the variation component changes, the fluctuation rate of the slip identifier IDslip and phase lag ⁇ to variations in the torque ratio Tr is different, the following problems occur.
- the frequency f 0 of the fluctuation component is relatively small.
- the torque ratio Tr of the belt-type continuously variable transmission TM is a transmission characteristic in which the fluctuation component of the input shaft 11 is transmitted to the output shaft 12 via the endless belt 15.
- the slip identifier IDslip which indexed the amplitude difference of the fluctuation component of the input shaft 11 and the output shaft 12 and the phase delay ⁇ which indexed the phase difference of the fluctuation component of the input shaft 11 and the output shaft 12 when estimating based on Since at least one of these is used, it is possible to accurately estimate the torque ratio Tr closely related to the power transmission efficiency of the belt-type continuously variable transmission TM to improve the power transmission efficiency.
- the torque ratio Tr is estimated from the slip identifier IDslip or the phase delay ⁇ , the number of sensors required to estimate the torque ratio Tr can be minimized, and the cost can be reduced. Also, since the pulley side pressure applied to one of the drive pulley 13 and the driven pulley 14 is controlled so that the estimated torque ratio Tr matches the target torque ratio STr, the target torque ratio Tr is directly specified to perform accurate control. Not only that, but it is possible to prevent the response of the pulley side pressure from being changed by the frequency f 0 of the fluctuation component. As a result, the power transmission efficiency was improved by 1.8% and the fuel consumption was improved by 3.8% with the belt type continuously variable transmission TM alone.

Then, by comparing the torque ratio Tr with the target torque ratio STr in step S24 and controlling the pulley side pressure based on the deviation in step S25, more accurate control can be enabled.
- the characteristic line of the map for searching for the torque ratio Tr based on the frequency f 0 of the fluctuation component and the slip identifier IDslip translates in the horizontal axis direction when the natural frequency f n of the system changes. Since the natural frequency f n varies according to the input shaft torque and gear ratio of the belt-type continuously variable transmission TM, a plurality of maps for estimating the torque ratio Tr are prepared according to the natural frequency f n There is a problem that causes an increase in storage capacity of the memory and an increase in cost. The reason why the natural frequency f n of the system changes is shown in FIG.

- the contact surface between the metal elements is compressed and deformed as the input shaft torque increases, and the contact area is increased, so that the metal element is gradually less likely to be compressed and the spring stiffness of the spring of the model is increased ( As a result, the natural frequency f n of the system increases as the input shaft torque increases (see FIG. 15C).
- step S31 of the flowchart of FIG. 14 the natural frequency f n is calculated from the input shaft torque TDR and the gear ratio. Since the input shaft torque TDR matches the output torque of the engine E, a value calculated by the ECU of the engine E can be used, and the transmission gear ratio is the input shaft rotation speed NDR detected by the input shaft rotation speed sensor Sa and the output shaft rotation The ratio NDR / NDN of the output shaft rotational speed NDN detected by the number sensor Sb can be calculated by the electronic control unit U.
- step S33 the frequency f 0 / f n of the fluctuation component standardized in step S33 and the slip identifier IDslip
- the torque ratio Tr is searched based on a map having the parameter as a parameter, and if f 0 / f n ⁇ f L / f n or f 0 / f n ff H / f n in step S32, standardization is performed in step S34.
- the torque ratio Tr is searched based on the map using the frequency f 0 / f n of the fluctuation component and the phase delay ⁇ as parameters. Then, by comparing the torque ratio Tr with the target torque ratio STr in step S35 and controlling the pulley side pressure in step S36, more accurate control can be enabled.
- the fluctuation component of the input shaft element and the output shaft element of the present invention is not limited to the number of rotations, and may be torque.
- the input shaft element of the present invention is not limited to the input shaft 11 of the embodiment, but may be a crankshaft of the engine E coupled to the input shaft 11.

Tr=T/Tmax …(1)
で定義されるもので、Tはベルト式無段変速機TMが現在伝達しているトルクであり、Tmaxはベルト式無段変速機TMが現在の軸推力(つまり、プーリ側圧×プーリピストンの受圧面積)でスリップせずに伝達可能な最大トルクである。トルク比Tr=0は動力伝達が行われていない状態に対応し、トルク比Tr=1は現在伝達しているトルクが飽和した状態に対応し、トルク比Tr>1はマクロスリップが発生してしまったか、それに遷移している状態に対応する。
Tmax=2μRQ/cosα …(2)
で与えられるもので、μはプーリおよびベルト間の摩擦係数、Rはプーリのベルト巻き付き半径、Qはプーリの軸推力、αはプーリのV角の半分の角度である。このように、トルク比Trを算出するには最大伝達可能トルクTmaxを算出する必要があり、最大伝達可能トルクTmaxを算出するには、プーリおよびベルト間の摩擦係数μ、プーリのベルト巻き付き半径Rおよびプーリの軸推力Qを検出する必要があるため、多くのセンサが必要になる。これらのセンサを実際の車両に搭載することは、コストの観点から実現することが困難である。
Nin=Acos(ωt+φin) …(3)
で与えられ、出力軸回転数の振動波形は、
Nout=Bcos(ωt+φout) …(4)
で与えられる。
