- the ball holding piston 67 moves in the axial direction (direction toward the forward clutch 5) with the ON pressure action on the ball holding piston 67, and the ball 68 held in the storage portion 67c is held by the lock surface 67e.
- the ON pressure is supplied to the ON pressure piston chamber 62 only during the engagement operation, and the ON pressure supply for maintaining the engaged state of the forward clutch 5 is not necessary.
- the ball holding piston 67 moves in the axial direction (the direction away from the forward clutch 5) from the holding position of the ball 68 by the lock surface 67e to the holding release position.
- a force obtained by combining the force of the OFF pressure and the reaction force of the fastening force of the diaphragm spring 65 acts on the hydraulic piston 61, and the hydraulic piston 61 strokes in the return direction and pushes the ball 68 back in the unlocking direction.
- the lock mechanism BL is released.
- idle stop control is generally performed to stop the driving of the engine 1 while the vehicle is stopped. Since the fuel consumption is reduced by idling the engine 1, the fuel efficiency is improved.
- the engine controller 12 stops the supply of fuel to the engine 1 and stops the engine 1 when the vehicle satisfies a predetermined idle stop condition.
- the predetermined idle stop condition is, for example, a case where the vehicle speed is approximately 0 km / h, the brake pedal is depressed, and the accelerator opening APO is zero.
- the hydraulic pump 8 is driven as the engine is stopped. It will not be done. If the hydraulic pressure from the hydraulic pump 8 is not supplied to the hydraulic control circuit 7, the hydraulic pressure cannot be supplied to the transmission 3.
- the forward clutch 5 of the present embodiment has the lock mechanism BL
- the OFF clutch is set to turn off the lock mechanism BL. Since no pressure can be supplied, N control cannot be performed when the vehicle is stopped. Further, when the engine 1 is restarted with the forward clutch 5 engaged, the driving force of the engine is transmitted to the drive wheels via the forward clutch 5, causing a shock to the vehicle or unintentionally moving the vehicle forward. there's a possibility that.
- the forward clutch 5 is controlled not to be engaged during the idle stop control by performing the following control.
- FIG. 3 is a flowchart of idle stop control executed by the transmission controller 9 according to the embodiment of the present invention.
- a predetermined cycle for example, 10 ms.
- step S10 the transmission controller 9 determines whether or not a signal (idle stop signal) for notifying the engine controller 12 has been received prior to execution of the idle stop. If the idle stop signal has not been received, the processing according to this flowchart is terminated and the processing returns to other processing.
- a signal in step S10, the transmission controller 9 determines whether or not a signal (idle stop signal) for notifying the engine controller 12 has been received prior to execution of the idle stop. If the idle stop signal has not been received, the processing according to this flowchart is terminated and the processing returns to other processing.
- step S20 the transmission controller 9 starts supplying OFF pressure to the OFF pressure piston chamber 63 of the clutch operation pack 6 of the forward clutch 5.
- the engine controller 12 does not execute idle stop until it transmits a signal that permits execution of idle stop from the transmission controller 9 after transmitting the idle stop signal. That is, at the time of step S20, the engine 1 is driven to rotate, and the hydraulic pump 8 is driven to supply hydraulic pressure to the hydraulic control circuit 7, so that the hydraulic control circuit 7 can supply OFF pressure.
- step S30 the transmission controller 9 determines whether or not the lock mechanism BL is unlocked by supplying the OFF pressure. Whether or not the lock mechanism BL is unlocked is determined by a change in the actual hydraulic pressure supplied to the OFF pressure piston chamber 63 by the hydraulic control circuit 7 as will be described later with reference to FIG.
- step S30 If the lock mechanism BL is not released, the process returns to step S30 and the process is repeated.
- step S40 the transmission controller 9 transmits a signal (ACK signal) for permitting execution of idle stop to the engine controller 12.
- the engine controller 12 stops the operation of the engine 1 upon receiving the ACK signal from the transmission controller 9. Thereafter, the processing according to this flowchart is terminated and the processing returns to other processing.
- the forward clutch 5 can be surely controlled to the released state before the drive of the engine 1 is stopped.
- FIG. 4 shows a time chart of the idle stop control according to the embodiment of the present invention.
- the idle stop signal, the idle stop permission signal, the rotational speed Ne of the engine 1, and the actual hydraulic pressure of the OFF pressure piston chamber 63 are shown as time charts with the horizontal axis as time.
- the engine controller 12 determines that the idle stop condition is satisfied, the engine controller 12 transmits an idle stop signal to the transmission controller 9 (timing t1).
- the transmission controller 9 When the transmission controller 9 receives the idle stop signal, it starts supplying OFF pressure to the OFF pressure piston chamber 63 of the forward clutch 5.
- the volume of the OFF pressure piston chamber 63 is expanded by the movement of the ball holding piston 67.
- the actual hydraulic pressure in the OFF pressure piston chamber 63 temporarily decreases.
- the volume change of the OFF pressure piston chamber 63 does not occur, so the hydraulic pressure in the OFF pressure piston chamber 63 rises again.
- the movement of the ball holding piston 67 to the holding release position can be detected by the change in the actual hydraulic pressure in the OFF pressure piston chamber 63.
- the actual hydraulic pressure in the OFF pressure piston chamber 63 changes from a decreasing tendency to an increasing tendency at timing t2. This indicates that the movement has stopped after the ball holding piston 67 has moved to the holding release position, and that the lock mechanism BL has been released.
- the transmission controller 9 determines that the lock mechanism BL is unlocked when the actual hydraulic pressure in the OFF pressure piston chamber 63 changes from a decreasing tendency to an increasing tendency.
- the transmission controller 9 determines that the lock mechanism BL is in the unlocked state, it transmits an idle stop permission signal to the engine controller 12.
- the engine controller 12 receives the idle stop permission signal and executes the idle stop of the engine 1 (timing t3).
- the engine controller 12 when the ON pressure is supplied, the locked state is set, the lock mechanism BL is set to the locked state, and the locked state is maintained by releasing the ON pressure, and the OFF pressure is supplied.
- the engine controller 12 In the transmission 3 having the forward clutch 5 that can be brought into a released state and the lock mechanism BL to be in an unlocked state and maintained in the unlocked state by releasing the OFF pressure, the engine controller 12 (idle stop When the control unit) notifies the engine 1 to stop driving, the transmission controller 9 (control device) starts supplying OFF pressure to the OFF pressure piston chamber 63, and then the lock mechanism BL is unlocked. Then, the engine controller 12 is allowed to stop the engine 1.
- the transmission controller 9 more specifically, when the actual hydraulic pressure changes from a decreasing tendency to an increasing tendency, the lock mechanism BL is unlocked.
- the forward clutch 5 can be reliably released before the supply of hydraulic pressure by the hydraulic pump 8 stops.
- the present invention is not limited to this, and the present invention can be similarly applied to a hybrid vehicle having an engine and an electric motor as driving force sources. it can.
- control of the engine 1 and the control of the transmission 3 are performed by different controllers (the engine controller 12 and the transmission controller 9) has been described, but the present invention is not limited thereto. You may comprise so that said control may be performed by the control apparatus which controls the engine 1 and the transmission 3 integrally.
