- vehicle 41 includes the internal combustion engine 1 as a driving power source.
- a V-belt type continuously variable transmission 2 is connected to the internal combustion engine 1.
- the internal combustion engine 1 is composed of, for example, a gasoline engine.
- the vehicle has an accelerator pedal 3 that is operated by the driver.
- the internal combustion engine 1 includes an electronic control throttle 5 that is driven by an electric motor 4.

- the target throttle opening tTVO is controlled.
- the continuously variable transmission 2 includes a torque converter 6, a primary pulley 7, a secondary pulley 8, a primary pulley 7 and a V-belt 9 wound around the secondary pulley 8.
- the rotation of the internal combustion engine 1 is input to the primary pulley 7 via the torque converter 6.
- the output rotation of the continuously variable transmission 2 is transmitted from the final drive gears 21 and 22 connected to the secondary pulley 8 to the wheels 24 through the differential 23.
- Each of the primary pulley 7 and the secondary pulley 8 includes a pair of sheaves forming a V-groove.
- One of the pair of sheaves is a movable sheave and the other is a fixed sheave.
- the width of the V-groove is reduced.
- the width of the V-groove increases.
- the winding radius of the V-belt 9 around the primary pulley 7 or the secondary pulley 8 changes, and as a result, the gear ratio of the continuously variable transmission 2 changes.
- the movable sheave of the primary pulley 7 is driven by the primary pulley pressure Ppri supplied by the hydraulic pressure supply device 10.
- the movable sheave of the secondary pulley 8 is driven by the secondary pulley pressure Psec supplied by the hydraulic pressure supply device 10. Controller 31. By supplying the primary pulley pressure Ppri and the secondary pulley pressure Psec, the speed ratio of the continuously variable transmission 2 is controlled to the target speed ratio It.
- a controller 31 that controls the throttle opening of the throttle 5, the primary pulley pressure Ppri supplied to the primary pulley 7, and the secondary pulley pressure Psec supplied to the secondary pulley 8 includes a central processing unit (CPU), a read-only memory (ROM) ), A random access memory (RAM) and a microcomputer equipped with an input / output interface (I / O interface). It is also possible to configure the controller with a plurality of microcomputers.
- the controller 31 includes an accelerator pedal depression amount sensor 32 that detects the accelerator opening APO from the depression amount of the accelerator pedal 3.
- a throttle opening sensor 33 for detecting the throttle opening TVO of the electronically controlled throttle 5, and a crank angle sensor 34 for detecting the rotational speed Ne of the internal combustion engine 1.

- each detection data is input as a signal from the vehicle speed sensor 37 which detects vehicle speed VSP.
- the controller 31 calculates the target throttle opening tTVO of the electronically controlled throttle 5 and the target speed ratio tI of the continuously variable transmission 2 based on these signals.
- the controller 31 controls the throttle opening of the electronic control throttle 5 to the target throttle opening tTVO by outputting a target throttle opening command signal corresponding to the calculated target throttle opening tTVO to the electric motor 4.
- the controller 31 also calculates a primary pulley pressure Ppri and a secondary pulley pressure Psec that realize the calculated target speed ratio tI, and outputs a hydraulic pressure command corresponding to the calculation result to the hydraulic pressure supply device 10, thereby allowing the continuously variable transmission. 2 is controlled.
- FIG. 13 As shown in FIG. 13, when the vehicle 41 is towing another vehicle 42 (in the following description, abbreviated as “towing state”), the traveling load does not tow other vehicles. It becomes particularly large beyond the running load range.
- FIG. Reference numeral 2 denotes a characteristic of the minimum engine speed for obtaining a necessary vehicle driving force when the vehicle 41 is driven via the continuously variable transmission 2 having the lowest speed ratio.
- the change in the engine rotational speed lower limit value Nemin1 according to the comparative example and the change in the engine rotational speed lower limit value Nemin2 in the traction state according to the present invention are shown superimposed with the vehicle speed VSP as a parameter.
- the engine speed lower limit values Nemin1 and Nemin2 are both values when the accelerator is fully opened.
- the engine speed lower limit value Nemin1 according to the comparative example corresponds to the lowest engine speed when the vehicle is not pulled. According to this diagram, when the vehicle speed VSP is a constant vehicle speed VSP1, the minimum engine rotation speed when the vehicle is in the non-traction state is Nemin 10, and the minimum engine rotation speed when the vehicle is in the traction state is Nemin 20.
- the engine rotation speed lower limit value Nemin1 of the comparative example is determined in consideration of the balance between the driving force requirement and the noise and vibration requirements. In other words, if the engine rotational speed lower limit Nemin1 is increased when traveling on a flat road, the vehicle driving force generated when the vehicle 41 is driven via the continuously variable transmission 2 with the lowest speed ratio becomes easier to travel. . At the same time, the noise generated by the internal combustion engine 1 is increased and the driving feeling is deteriorated. Therefore, the engine rotational speed lower limit value Nemin1 is set to a rotational speed as high as possible within a range in which the driving feeling is not deteriorated by engine noise on flat road traveling.
- FIG. 3A-3C is an example of a change in the running load of the vehicle and a change in the rotational speed of the engine when the vehicle is approaching an uphill road from a state where the vehicle is running on a flat road while being towed and running on the uphill road.
- FIG. 3A-3C while the vehicle is traveling on a flat road, it reaches the uphill road at time t1, the driver steps on the accelerator pedal to maintain a constant vehicle speed, the driver returns the accelerator pedal slightly at time t3, and then presses the accelerator pedal again. It shows the situation where it depresses and re-accelerates.
- the vehicle speed VSP during this period is FIG. It is assumed that the constant value VSP1 shown in FIG. FIG.
- FIG. 3B the engine speed lower limit value Nemin10 in the non-towing state at the vehicle speed VSP1 and the engine speed lower limit value Nemin20 in the towing state are shown in an overlapping manner.
- FIG. 3A the traveling load of the vehicle is greatest for a while after entering the uphill road from the flat road at time t1. When the vehicle speed equal to that on a flat road is obtained after entering the uphill road, the traveling load decreases.
- the basic minimum engine rotational speed Nebest0 shown in the figure means the minimum engine rotational speed for obtaining a vehicle driving force required for a change in the vehicle running load.
- the basic minimum engine rotation speed Nest0 increases in response to an increase in traveling load associated with traveling on an uphill road in the towing state. When the traveling load decreases, the basic minimum engine speed Nest0 also decreases. When traveling on a flat road in a non-traction state, the basic minimum engine rotation speed Nebest0 does not exceed the engine rotation speed lower limit value Nemin10. However, when the vehicle travels on an uphill road in the towing state, the basic minimum engine speed Nest0 exceeds the engine speed lower limit value Nemin10 in the section from time t2 to time t6.
- the engine rotation speed lower limit value Nemin10 suitable for flat road traveling is not suitable for climbing road traveling in a towing state.
- FIG. The comparative example of 3C shows a case where the engine speed lower limit value Nemin10 is applied to the minimum engine speed Nebest and the vehicle travels on an uphill road in a towing state.
- the target engine rotational speed Ne ** decreases to the engine rotational speed lower limit value Nemin10 at time t5. Thereafter, when the driver depresses the accelerator pedal again, it takes time for the engine speed to recover from this drop, and the reacceleration of the vehicle is impaired.
- the gear ratio control apparatus avoids the above-described rise delay of the target engine rotational speed Ne ** when the vehicle is running in the towing state.
- an engine rotational speed lower limit value Nemin2 higher than the engine rotational speed lower limit value Nemin1 of the comparative example is newly introduced.
- the engine speed lower limit value Nemin2 is referred to as “the lowest engine speed in the towing state”.
- the engine speed lower limit value Nemin1 is referred to as “the lowest engine speed in the non-traction state”.
- the engine rotational speed lower limit value Nemin2 in the traction state is higher than the engine rotational speed lower limit value Nemin1 in the non-traction state in all vehicle speed ranges.
- the gear ratio control device determines whether or not the vehicle is in a towed state, and if it is determined to be in a towed state, the engine speed lower limit value Nemin2 in the towed state is applied instead of the engine speed lower limit value Nemin1 in the towed state. Thus, the shift control of the continuously variable transmission 2 is performed.
- the engine speed lower limit value Nemin2 in the towing state when the vehicle in the towing state keeps the vehicle speed at a substantially constant vehicle speed VSP1 and enters the uphill road from the flat road, the minimum engine speed during the uphill is FIG. From the diagram of 2, it becomes Nemin20.
- the basic minimum engine rotation speed Nest0 is the minimum engine rotation speed for obtaining a vehicle driving force required for a change in the vehicle running load.
- FIG. As shown by a solid line in 3C, the basic minimum engine speed Nest0 is applied as it is as the minimum engine speed Nest.
- the target engine rotational speed Ne ** decreases at a stretch, but the target engine rotational speed Ne ** decreases by FIG. It stops at time t4 when it reaches the lowest engine speed Nebest indicated by the solid line 3B. In other words, the target engine speed Ne ** does not decrease beyond the minimum engine speed Nebest.
- the target engine speed Ne ** increases away from the lowest engine speed Nebest.
- the lowest engine speed Nebest according to the first embodiment of the present invention is higher than the lowest engine speed Nebest of the comparative example, so that the drop in the target engine speed Ne ** is reduced accordingly.
- the rising delay of the target engine speed Ne ** that occurs in the section from the time t2 to the time t6 when traveling on the uphill road in the towing state is suppressed, and the reacceleration performance at the time of traveling on the uphill road in the towing state is improved. Can do.
- the engine rotational speed lower limit value Nemin2 in the traction state is higher than the engine rotational speed lower limit value Nemin1 in the non-traction state, if the engine rotational speed lower limit value Nemin2 in the traction state is adopted, the noise generated by the internal combustion engine increases. .
- the driver recognizes the presence of a traction load when traveling on an uphill road in the traction state. Conceivable.
- FIG. With reference to FIG. 4, the calculation routine of the minimum engine speed Nebest which the controller 31 performs for the above control is demonstrated.
- the controller 31 executes this routine at regular intervals, for example, every 10 milliseconds while the vehicle is running.
- step S1 the controller 31 calculates the basic minimum engine speed Nest0.
- FIG. 1 The calculation method of the basic minimum engine speed Nest0 will be described with reference to FIG.
- the controller 31 includes a basic minimum engine rotation speed calculation unit 25 including a vehicle driving force calculation unit 26, a vehicle acceleration calculation unit 27, a travel load calculation unit 28, and a basic minimum engine rotation speed calculation unit 29.
- the vehicle driving force calculation unit 26 calculates the vehicle driving force Fd (Newton (N)) from the engine torque and the actual transmission ratio of the continuously variable transmission 2.
- the vehicle driving force Fd can be obtained by creating a predetermined map using the engine torque and the gear ratio as parameters and searching the map from the engine torque and the actual gear ratio.
- the engine torque a predetermined map using the engine load and the rotational speed as parameters is created in advance, and the engine torque may be obtained by searching the map from the engine load and the rotational speed.
