- the control of the transmission controller 9 that keeps supplying the limited hydraulic pressure lower than the ON pressure and maintains the forward clutch 5 in the engaged state without bringing the lock mechanism BL into the locked state is the garage shift engagement control. Call.

- the control of the transmission controller 9 that realizes the supply and discharge of the OFF pressure is called release control, and the transmission controller 9 executes release control when a mode other than the D mode is selected by the select switch 11.
- the ON pressure to the forward clutch 5 is not supplied when the non-travel mode such as the N mode or the P mode is selected due to the configuration of the hydraulic circuit, but is supplied only when the travel mode of the D mode is selected.
- step S100 the transmission controller 9 determines whether the select switch 11 has been changed from the D mode to a mode other than the D mode based on the signal from the mode detection switch 104. The process proceeds to step S101 when the mode is changed from the D mode to a mode other than the D mode, and is ended when the mode is not changed from the D mode to a mode other than the D mode.
- step S101 the transmission controller 9 supplies OFF pressure to the OFF pressure piston chamber 63 and starts release control.
- step S102 the transmission controller 9 measures the time after the OFF pressure is supplied to the OFF pressure piston chamber 63, compares the measured time with the first predetermined time, and the measured time becomes the first predetermined time. Judge whether or not. The process proceeds to step S103 when the measurement time reaches the first predetermined time.
- the first predetermined time is a preset time, and is a time necessary for releasing the forward clutch 5 by changing the lock mechanism BL from the locked state to the unlocked state.
- step S103 the transmission controller 9 stops supplying the OFF pressure to the OFF pressure piston chamber 63 and drains the OFF pressure.
- step S104 the transmission controller 9 determines whether or not the forward clutch 5 has been released. Specifically, the transmission controller 9 detects the forward clutch 5 based on signals from the rotational speed sensor 101 that detects the rotational speed Ne of the engine 1 and the rotational speed sensor 102 that detects the input rotational speed of the transmission 3. Determine whether has been released.
- the OFF pressure is supplied to the OFF pressure piston chamber 63 and the lock mechanism BL is released, the differential rotation generated at each rotation speed is reduced. This is because even if the select switch 11 is changed from the D mode to a mode other than the D mode and the forward clutch 5 is released, the rotational speed of the engine 1 is not substantially changed, but the input rotational speed of the transmission 3 is the same as that of the forward clutch 5.
- the transmission controller 9 determines that the forward clutch 5 has been released when the respective rotational speeds are equal to or lower than a predetermined differential rotation after the OFF pressure is supplied to the OFF pressure piston chamber 63. When the forward clutch 5 is released, the transmission controller 9 ends the release control, and the process ends. If the forward clutch 5 is not released, the hydraulic piston 61 may be stuck, and the process proceeds to step S105.
- the fixing of the hydraulic piston 61 is, for example, when a part of the ball 68 is damaged and a part of the damaged part is sandwiched between the hydraulic piston 61 and the partition cylindrical wall 51b, or when the hydraulic piston 61 is tilted and the clutch drum This occurs when the lock mechanism BL cannot be released, such as when the hydraulic piston 61 is prevented from moving.

- step S106 the transmission controller 9 measures the time after the OFF pressure is supplied to the OFF pressure piston chamber 63 again, and compares the measured time with the second predetermined time. The process proceeds to step S107 when the measurement time reaches the second predetermined time.
- the second predetermined time is a time set in advance, and is a time necessary for releasing the sticking of the hydraulic piston 61 and releasing the forward clutch 5.
- step S107 the transmission controller 9 stops supplying the OFF pressure to the OFF pressure piston chamber 63 and drains the OFF pressure.
- step S108 the transmission controller 9 determines again whether or not the forward clutch 5 has been released. Specifically, the transmission controller 9 determines whether the sticking of the hydraulic piston 61 has been resolved and the forward clutch 5 has been released based on signals from the rotational speed sensor 101 and the rotational speed sensor 102. A specific determination method is the same as that in step S104. When the forward clutch 5 is released, the transmission controller 9 ends the release control, and the process ends. If the forward clutch 5 has not been released, the process proceeds to step S109.
- step S109 the transmission controller 9 determines that the hydraulic piston 61 is fixed, sets the fixing determination flag to “1”, ends the release control, and ends the process.
- the sticking determination flag is “0” in the initial state.
- step S200 the transmission controller 9 determines whether the select switch 11 has been changed from the mode other than the D mode to the D mode based on the signal from the mode detection switch 104. The process proceeds to step S201 when the mode is changed from the mode other than the D mode to the D mode, and is ended otherwise.
- step S201 the transmission controller 9 determines whether or not the sticking determination flag is “1”. The process proceeds to step 202 when the sticking determination flag is “1”, and proceeds to step S207 when the fixing determination flag is “0”.
- step S202 the transmission controller 9 supplies ON pressure to the ON pressure piston chamber 62 and OFF pressure supply to the OFF pressure piston chamber 63 that can be supplied when the D mode is selected in order to cancel the sticking of the hydraulic piston 61.
- the ON pressure and OFF pressure supplied here are hydraulic pressures set in advance. Such supply of hydraulic pressure is continued until a third predetermined time described in step S203 has elapsed.
- step S203 the transmission controller 9 measures the time after alternately starting the supply of the ON pressure and the OFF pressure, and compares the measured time with the third predetermined time. When the measurement time reaches the third predetermined time, the transmission controller 9 ends the alternate supply of the OF pressure and the OFF pressure. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S204.
- the third predetermined time is a short time set in advance, and is a time that does not hinder the startability of the vehicle.
- step S204 the transmission controller 9 determines again whether or not the forward clutch 5 has been released. Specifically, the transmission controller 9 detects the forward clutch 5 based on signals from the rotational speed sensor 101 that detects the rotational speed Ne of the engine 1 and the rotational speed sensor 102 that detects the input rotational speed of the transmission 3. Determine whether has been released. The transmission controller 9 determines that the forward clutch 5 has been released when the situation in which the respective rotation speeds become equal to or less than the predetermined differential rotation occurs after alternately supplying the ON pressure and the OFF pressure. The process proceeds to step S206 when the forward clutch 5 is released, and proceeds to step S205 when the forward clutch 5 is not released.
- step S205 the transmission controller 9 starts protection control.
- the protection control for example, a warning light is turned on, and the torque of the engine 1 is reduced.
- step S206 the transmission controller 9 changes the sticking determination flag to “0”. Note that the sticking determination flag is “0” unless it is “1” in step S109.
- step S207 the transmission controller 9 supplies the ON pressure to the ON pressure piston chamber 62, executes the engagement control, and engages the forward clutch 5.
- the select switch 11 is changed from the D mode to a mode other than the D mode and the sticking of the hydraulic piston 61 is not eliminated even when the OFF pressure is supplied to the OFF pressure piston chamber 63 again, the select switch 11 is not in the D mode.
- ON pressure supply that can be supplied to the ON pressure piston chamber 62 when the D mode is selected and OFF pressure supply to the OFF pressure piston chamber 63 are alternately performed. Thereby, sticking of the hydraulic piston 61 can be eliminated.
- the signals from the rotation speed sensors 101 and 102 are used as a method for determining whether or not the forward clutch 5 is released.
- the present invention is not limited to this. For example, when a torque sensor is provided, It may be determined whether the forward clutch 5 has been released based on a signal from the torque sensor.
- supply of ON pressure to the forward clutch 5 is prohibited in modes other than the D mode, for example, the N mode and the P mode, and ON pressure and OFF pressure can be supplied in the D mode.
- the ON pressure may be supplied even in a mode other than the D mode.
- the ON pressure and the OFF pressure may be alternately supplied in Step S105, and the ON pressure and the OFF pressure may be alternately supplied before Step S109. In this way, the sticking of the hydraulic piston 61 may be eliminated.
