This is because an uncomfortable feeling can be suppressed and a shift shock of the auxiliary transmission mechanism 30 can be reduced.
- FIG. 4 is a time chart showing how the cooperative control is performed.
- the coordinated shift of the subtransmission mechanism 30 includes four phases: a preparation phase, a torque phase, an inertia phase, and an end phase.
- the preparatory phase is a phase in which a hydraulic pre-charge is applied to the engagement side frictional engagement element, and the engagement side frictional engagement element is put on standby in a state immediately before engagement.
- the engagement-side frictional engagement element is a frictional engagement element that is engaged at the shift stage after the shift, and is the high clutch 33 in the 1 ⁇ 2 upshift and the low brake 32 in the 2 ⁇ 1 downshift.
- the torque phase lowers the hydraulic pressure supplied to the open side frictional engagement element and increases the hydraulic pressure supplied to the engagement side frictional engagement element, so that the gear stage responsible for torque transmission is engaged with the engagement side from the shift stage of the open side frictional engagement element. This is the phase that shifts to the gear position of the frictional engagement element.
- the disengagement side frictional engagement element is the low brake 32 in the 1 ⁇ 2 up shift and the high clutch 33 in the 2 ⁇ 1 down shift.
- the inertia phase is a phase in which the gear ratio subRatio of the subtransmission mechanism 30 changes from the gear ratio of the pre-shift gear stage to the gear ratio of the post-shift gear stage.
- the transmission controller 12 in the inertia phase smoothly shifts from the transmission gear ratio of the sub-transmission mechanism 30 to the transmission gear ratio of the sub-transmission mechanism 30 to the transmission gear ratio of the post-shift gear stage and at the same speed as that of the variator 20.
- a target speed ratio tsubRatio of the speed change mechanism 30 is generated, and a target speed ratio tvRatio of the variator 20 is calculated by dividing the target through speed ratio tRatio by the target speed ratio tsubRatio of the sub speed change mechanism 30.
- the transmission controller 12 controls the variator 20 so that the transmission ratio vRatio of the variator 20 matches the target transmission ratio tvRatio, and the transmission ratio subRatio of the auxiliary transmission mechanism 30 matches the target transmission ratio tsubRatio. Feedback control of the hydraulic pressure supplied to the Low brake 32 and the High clutch 33 is performed. Thereby, the speed ratio of the variator 20 and the subtransmission mechanism 30 is controlled in the reverse direction while realizing the target through speed ratio tRatio.
- the end phase is a phase in which the hydraulic pressure supplied to the open-side frictional engagement element is set to zero to completely open the open-side frictional engagement element, and the supply hydraulic pressure to the engagement-side frictional engagement element is increased to fully engage the engagement-side frictional engagement element. It is.
- the four phases are upshift (auto-up shift) that occurs when the driver depresses the accelerator pedal and the vehicle speed increases, and downshift (coast coast) that occurs when the driver releases the accelerator pedal and the vehicle speed decreases. This occurs in the order of downshift). However, in the upshift that occurs when the driver removes his or her foot from the accelerator pedal (upshift that releases the foot) or the downshift that occurs when the driver depresses the accelerator pedal (a downshift including the kickdown shift) The order of inertia phases is reversed.
- the through speed ratio Ratio does not change before and after the cooperative shift, because the target through speed ratio tRatio is constant before and after the cooperative shift.
- the cooperative control in this specification is not limited to such a shift mode, and when changing the shift stage of the subtransmission mechanism 30, the speed ratio of the variator 20 is changed in the direction opposite to the speed ratio change direction of the subtransmission mechanism 30. Is used to control the through speed ratio Ratio to the target through speed ratio tRatio in general (cooperative control means).

If Yes (1 ⁇ 2 upshift determination), the process proceeds to step S3. If No (other than 1 ⁇ 2 upshift determination), the process proceeds to the end.

That is, when the input torque to the transmission 4 is in a relatively small region, it is determined that the power is ON.
- step S5 following the determination that the power is ON in step S4, it is determined whether or not the vehicle state is in the rotation drop countermeasure region (determined based on the vehicle speed VSP). If Yes (exists in the rotation drop countermeasure area), the process proceeds to step S7. If No (not present in the rotation drop countermeasure area), the process proceeds to step S6.
- the rotation reduction countermeasure region is such that the actual shift progress speed of the variator 20 is slower than the actual shift progress speed of the sub-transmission mechanism 30, the clutch capacity of the sub-transmission mechanism 30 is excessive, and the transmission input rotation
- step S6 following the determination of power OFF in step S4 or the absence of the rotation drop countermeasure region in step S5, the cooperative control is executed at the cooperative shift inertia phase time set in step S3. Proceed to step S12. That is, when the process proceeds to step S6, cooperative control is performed in which the sub-transmission mechanism 30 is shifted up in the cooperative shift inertia phase time and the variator 20 is shifted down in the same cooperative shift inertia phase time.
- step S7 following the determination in step S5 that the rotation drop countermeasure region is present, a rotation drop countermeasure inertia phase time (second inertia phase time) that is shorter than the coordinated shift inertia phase time is set, and the flow advances to step S8.
- Advance inertia phase time setting control unit.

- the rotation phase countermeasure inertia phase time is equal to or less than the required inertia phase time when the variator 20 is downshifted, and the inertia phase time when the auxiliary transmission mechanism 30 is upshifted with the coordinated shift inertia phase time as a target time. Is set to be
- step S8 following the setting of the inertia phase time for countering the rotation drop in step S7, the auxiliary transmission mechanism 30 is shifted up in the cooperative shift inertia phase time, and the inertia phase time for countering the rotation drop ( ⁇ cooperation) Coordinated control for downshifting is performed at the transmission inertia phase time), and the process proceeds to step S9.
- step S9 following the determination that the sub-transmission mechanism 30 and the variator 20 in step S8 have different target inertia phase times, or in step S12, it is determined that the cooperative control shift has not been completed. It is determined whether or not a racing has been detected. If Yes (engine speed increase detection is detected), the process proceeds to step S10. If No (engine speed increase increase is not detected), the process proceeds to step S11.
- the engine speed increases, for example, when the engine speed increase amount from the engine speed before entering the inertia phase is equal to or higher than a predetermined engine speed determination value, the engine speed increases. Detect.
- step S10 following the determination in step S9 that the engine speed increase has been detected, the cooperative transmission of the subtransmission mechanism 30 and the variator 20 is continued, and the engagement side hydraulic pressure (high clutch hydraulic pressure) of the subtransmission mechanism 30 is maintained. Is performed, and the process proceeds to step S12.
- step S11 following the determination that engine speed increase has not been detected in step S9, cooperative control in which the target inertia phase time is varied between the auxiliary transmission mechanism 30 and the variator 20 in step S8 is continued. Proceed to S12.
- step S12 following each cooperative control executed in steps S6, S10, and S11, it is determined whether or not the cooperative control shift is completed. If Yes (cooperative control shift complete), the process proceeds to the end. If No (cooperative control shift incomplete), the process returns to step S9.

- the actual gear ratio is made to follow each target gear ratio by controlling the pulley oil pressure of the variator and the clutch oil pressure constituting each gear stage of the auxiliary transmission mechanism.
- the change in the actual speed change of the sub-transmission mechanism is due to variations in the hydraulic sensitivity (relationship between the hydraulic pressure and the torque capacity of the friction element) regarding the friction element of the sub-transmission mechanism and the hysteresis that is the deviation between the actual oil pressure and the command oil pressure.
- the auxiliary transmission mechanism may change rapidly with respect to the target inertia change.
- a change in the actual variator shift may cause a predetermined delay in the followability of the variator with respect to the target gear ratio. At this time, even if the coordinated shift inertia phase time is set, the actual gear ratio may not follow the through gear ratio due to variations in hydraulic pressure, and the coordinated control may be lost.
- the clutch capacity of the auxiliary transmission mechanism becomes excessive and the engine speed decreases. Due to the decrease in the engine speed, the engine speed may decrease to the unlocking speed of the lockup clutch. In this case, the lockup clutch is released to prevent engine stall.

- the sub-transmission mechanism 30 when it is determined that the input torque to the transmission 4 is a step-up shift with a predetermined value or less, the sub-transmission mechanism 30 is shifted up during the cooperative shift inertia phase time.
- a configuration is adopted in which the variator 20 is shifted down in the inertia phase time for countermeasures against rotation drop that is shorter than the coordinated shift inertia phase time. That is, at the time of a step-up shift where the input torque to the transmission 4 is a predetermined value or less, the change in the transmission input rotational speed before and after the shift is small, and the feedback control may not function as intended.
- the clutch capacity of the subtransmission mechanism 30 becomes excessive, and the transmission input rotational speed decreases.
- the inertia phase required time is smaller than the required time of the auxiliary transmission mechanism 30. The time required for the variator 20 is shortened. For this reason, in the inertia phase of the step-up cooperative shift, the clutch capacity of the auxiliary transmission mechanism 30 does not become excessive, and a reduction in the transmission input rotational speed is suppressed.

- the rotation drop countermeasure inertia phase time is set only when the rotation drop countermeasure region condition is highly likely to occur when the cooperative control is performed using the coordinated shift inertia phase time. For this reason, it is possible to reliably suppress a decrease in the transmission input rotational speed while suppressing the setting frequency of the rotation phase countermeasure inertia phase time.

- the cooperative control means (FIG.
- 5) includes a first inertia phase time that is a cooperative shift inertia phase time of the entire transmission, and a second inertia phase time (inertia for rotation drop countermeasures) that is shorter than the first inertia phase time.
- Inertia phase time setting control unit (S3, S7) for setting (phase time) When the cooperative control means (FIG. 5) determines that the input torque to the continuously variable transmission (transmission 4) is cooperative control of a predetermined value or less, the auxiliary transmission mechanism 30 is moved to the first inertia phase.
- the variator 20 is shifted (down-shifted) during the second inertia phase time (rotation drop countermeasure inertia phase time) while shifting (upshifting) at time (coordinated shifting inertia phase time) (S8). For this reason, at the time of the cooperative control accompanied by the shift of the auxiliary transmission mechanism 30, the change in the transmission input rotational speed can be suppressed and the drivability can be improved.
- the inertia phase time setting control unit (S7 in FIG. 5) indicates that the downshifting speed of the variator 20 is slower than the upshifting speed of the auxiliary transmission mechanism 30, and the continuously variable transmission (transmission 4).

Abstract
Description
前記バリエータは、変速比を無段階に変化させることができる。
前記副変速機構は、前記バリエータに対して直列に設けられ、前進用変速段として第1変速段と該第1変速段よりも変速比の小さな第2変速段とを有する。
前記協調制御手段は、前記副変速機構の変速段を変更する場合、前記副変速機構を変速させつつ前記バリエータを前記副変速機構の変速方向と逆方向に変速させる協調制御を行う。
この副変速機付き無段変速機の制御装置において、
前記協調制御手段は、変速機全体の協調変速イナーシャフェーズ時間である第1イナーシャフェーズ時間と、前記第1イナーシャフェーズ時間よりも短い時間による第2イナーシャフェーズ時間を設定するイナーシャフェーズ時間設定制御部を有する。
前記協調制御手段は、前記無段変速機への入力トルクが所定値以下の協調制御であると判定されたとき、前記副変速機構を前記第1イナーシャフェーズ時間にて変速させつつ、前記バリエータを前記第2イナーシャフェーズ時間にて変速させる。
すなわち、無段変速機への入力トルクが所定値以下の変速時には、変速前後の変速機入力回転数の変化が小さく、フィードバック制御が狙い通りに機能しない場合がある。特に、踏み込みアップ変速時であって、副変速機構のイナーシャ進行速度に対し、バリエータのイナーシャ進行速度が遅くなった場合、副変速機構のクラッチ容量が過多となり、変速機入力回転数が低下してしまう。
これに対し、協調変速イナーシャフェーズ時間である第1イナーシャフェーズ時間とは別に、第1イナーシャフェーズ時間よりも短い第2イナーシャフェーズ時間を設定することで、イナーシャフェーズ所要時間は、副変速機構の所要時間に対し、バリエータの所要時間が短縮される。このため、協調変速のイナーシャフェーズにおいて、副変速機構のクラッチ容量が過多になることがなく、変速機入力回転数の変化が抑制される。
この結果、副変速機構の変速を伴う協調制御時、変速機入力回転数の変化を抑制し、運転性の向上を図ることができる。
実施例1における副変速機付き無段変速機の制御装置の構成を、「全体システム構成」、「変速マップによる変速制御構成」、「副変速機構とバリエータの協調制御構成」、「踏み込みアップ変速協調制御構成」に分けて説明する。
図1は、実施例1の制御装置が適用された副変速機付き無段変速機が搭載された車両の概略構成を示し、図2は、変速機コントローラの内部構成を示す。以下、図1及び図2に基づき、全体システム構成を説明する。
なお、以下の説明において、ある変速機構の「変速比」は、当該変速機構の入力回転速度を当該変速機構の出力回転速度で割って得られる値である。また、「最Low変速比」は当該変速機構の最大変速比を意味し、「最High変速比」は当該変速機構の最小変速比を意味する。
また、車両には、エンジン1の動力の一部を利用して駆動されるオイルポンプ10と、オイルポンプ10からの油圧を調圧して変速機4の各部位に供給する油圧制御回路11と、油圧制御回路11を制御する変速機コントローラ12とが設けられている。以下、各構成について説明する。
図3は、変速機コントローラ12の記憶装置122に格納される変速マップの一例を示す。以下、図3に基づき、変速マップによる変速制御構成を説明する。
この変速マップには、従来のベルト式無段変速機の変速マップと同様に、アクセル開度APO毎に変速線が設定されており、変速機4の変速はアクセル開度APOに応じて選択される変速線に従って行われる。なお、図3には簡単のため、全負荷線(アクセル開度APO=8/8のときの変速線)、パーシャル線(アクセル開度APO=4/8のときの変速線)、コースト線(アクセル開度APO=0のときの変速線)のみが示されている。
図4は、上記協調制御が行われる様子を示したタイムチャートである。副変速機構30の協調変速は、準備フェーズ、トルクフェーズ、イナーシャフェーズ、終了フェーズの4つのフェーズで構成される。
図5は、実施例1の変速機コントローラ12にて実行される踏み込みアップ変速協調制御処理流れを示す(協調制御手段)。以下、踏み込みアップ変速協調制御処理構成をあらわす図5の各ステップについて説明する。
ここで、非協調制御とは、副変速機構30の変速を伴う踏み込みアップ変速時、バリエータ20の協調変速を行わない制御をいう。
ここで、副変速機構30での1→2アップ変速判定は、車速VSPとアクセル開度APOとプライマリ回転速度Npriにより決まる動作点が、図3に示す変速マップにおけるモード切換アップ変速線を横切ることで判定する。
ここで、協調変速イナーシャフェーズ時間は、副変速機構30でのアップ変速とバリエータ20でのダウン変速による協調変速におけるイナーシャフェーズ目標所要時間として設定される。
ここで、パワーON判定は、アクセル開度APOが、0<APO≦APO1(APO1は、低開度判定値)であることか、エンジンから変速機コントローラへ入力される入力トルク信号T-ENGが、0<T-ENG<T-ENG1(T-ENG1は、低トルク判定値)により判定する。つまり、変速機4への入力トルクが相対的に小さい領域のときパワーONと判定をする。
ここで、回転落ち対策領域は、イナーシャフェーズにおいて、副変速機構30の実変速進行速度に対し、バリエータ20の実変速進行速度が遅く、副変速機構30のクラッチ容量が過多となり、変速機入力回転数であるエンジン回転数が低下してしまうと推定される運転領域にあるとき、回転落ち対策領域に有りと判断する。具体的には、車速判定により行うもので、車速VSPが低車速判定値以下の低車速域を、バリエータ20の実変速進行速度が遅くなる回転落ち対策領域とする。
すなわち、ステップS6へ進むと、副変速機構30を協調変速イナーシャフェーズ時間にてアップ変速させつつ、バリエータ20を同じ協調変速イナーシャフェーズ時間にてダウン変速させる協調制御が行われる。
ここで、回転落ち対策用イナーシャフェーズ時間は、バリエータ20をダウン変速させるときのイナーシャフェーズの目標時間として設定されたものである。この回転落ち対策用イナーシャフェーズ時間は、バリエータ20をダウン変速させたときのイナーシャフェーズ所要時間が、協調変速イナーシャフェーズ時間を目標時間として副変速機構30をアップ変速させたときのイナーシャフェーズ所要時間以下になるように設定される。
ここで、エンジン回転数の吹け上がりは、例えば、イナーシャフェーズに入る前のエンジン回転数からの回転数上昇量が、予め設定した吹け上がり判定値以上になると、エンジン回転数の吹け上がりであると検知する。
実施例1の副変速機付き無段変速機の制御装置における作用を、[比較例の課題]、[踏み込みアップ変速協調制御でのエンジン回転数低下防止作用]、[踏み込みアップ変速協調制御でのエンジン回転数吹け上がり防止作用]に分けて説明する。
まず、前提を説明すると、副変速機付き無段変速機において、副変速機構の変速を伴う踏み込みアップ変速判定を行うと、副変速機構とバリエータとの協調制御を行う。
具体的には、副変速機構における変速前後での変速ショックの発生等の運転者への違和感を抑制するために、変速機全体のスルー変速比の急激な変化を抑制する。このために、副変速機構の1→2アップ変速を実行しつつ、副変速機構の変速に合わせてバリエータを副変速機構の変速比変化とは逆方向にダウン変速させる。
この対策として、入力トルクが相対的に小さい領域にあるとき、変速機全体の目標イナーシャフェーズ時間として、協調変速イナーシャフェーズ時間を設定し、協調変速イナーシャフェーズ時間内に2つの変速が完了するように制御を実行する。
このエンジン回転数の低下を防止するために、協調制御そのものを禁止する方法が考えられるが、協調制御を禁止すると、踏み込みアップ変速時に、変速機全体のスルー変速比が変化するため、運転性の低下につながってしまう。
実施例1における副変速機構の変速を伴う踏み込みアップ変速協調制御でのエンジン回転数低下防止作用を、図5に示すフローチャート及び図7に示すタイムチャートに基づき説明する。
一方、協調変速イナーシャフェーズ時間Δtを目標時間として副変速機構30をアップ変速したとき、副変速機構30の実イナーシャ進行が速くなったとしても、ほぼ回転落ち対策用イナーシャフェーズ時間Δt3(<Δt)となる。このように、バリエータ20と副変速機構30の協調制御が目標イナーシャフェーズ時間を異ならせることで、時刻t1からほぼ同時のタイミングで2つの変速が完了した場合には、副変速機構30の締結側油圧によるHighクラッチ容量が過多になったり過少になったりすることなく、図7のF部に示すように、実スルー変速比及びエンジン回転数がイナーシャフェーズの前後で変動することなく、一定の値に維持される。
すなわち、変速機4への入力トルクが所定値以下の踏み込みアップ変速時には、変速前後の変速機入力回転数の変化が小さく、フィードバック制御が狙い通りに機能しない場合がある。特に、副変速機構30のイナーシャ進行速度に対し、バリエータ20のイナーシャ進行速度が遅くなった場合、副変速機構30のクラッチ容量が過多となり、変速機入力回転数が低下してしまう。
これに対し、協調変速イナーシャフェーズ時間とは別に、協調変速イナーシャフェーズ時間よりも短い回転落ち対策用イナーシャフェーズ時間を設定することで、イナーシャフェーズ所要時間は、副変速機構30の所要時間に対し、バリエータ20の所要時間が短縮される。このため、踏み込みアップ協調変速のイナーシャフェーズにおいて、副変速機構30のクラッチ容量が過多になることがなく、変速機入力回転数の低下が抑制される。
さらに、協調制御を禁止しないため、踏み込みアップ変速時に、変速機全体のスルー変速比の変化が抑えられ、運転性が向上される。
この結果、副変速機構30の変速を伴う踏み込みアップ協調変速時、変速機入力回転数の低下を抑制し、運転性の向上を図ることができる。特に、エンジン車においては、エンジン回転数の低下が抑制されることで、エンスト防止のためのロックアップクラッチ開放を要さない。
すなわち、図5のステップS4のパワーON判定条件と、ステップS5の回転落ち対策領域条件が共に成立するとき、ステップS7へ進み、回転落ち対策用イナーシャフェーズ時間が設定される。
したがって、協調変速イナーシャフェーズ時間を用いて協調制御すると変速機入力回転数が低下する可能性が高い回転落ち対策領域条件が成立するときに限り、回転落ち対策用イナーシャフェーズ時間が設定される。このため、回転落ち対策用イナーシャフェーズ時間の設定頻度を抑えながら、確実に変速機入力回転数の低下を抑制することができる。
上記のように、踏み込みアップ変速協調制御実行中は、回転落ち対策用イナーシャフェーズ時間の設定有無にかかわらず、図5のフローチャートにおいて、ステップS9→ステップS11→ステップS12へと進む流れが繰り返され、ステップS9にてエンジン回転数吹け上がりが検知されると、ステップS9からステップS10へと進む。このステップS10では、副変速機構30とバリエータ20の協調制御を継続しつつ、副変速機構30の締結側油圧(Highクラッチ油圧)を上昇させる制御が行われる。締結側油圧の上昇でエンジン1に加わる負荷抵抗が増大することにより、エンジン回転数吹け上がりが抑えられる。以下、実施例1における副変速機構の変速を伴う踏み込みアップ変速制御でのエンジン回転数吹け上がり防止作用を、図8に示すタイムチャートに基づき説明する。
一方、協調変速イナーシャフェーズ時間Δtを目標時間として副変速機構30をアップ変速したとき、副変速機構30の実イナーシャ進行が遅く停滞し、副変速機構30のクラッチ容量が不足すると、エンジン1に加わる負荷抵抗が減少することにより、エンジン回転数の吹け上がりを開始する。そして、このエンジン回転数の吹け上がりが検知されると、図8のG部に示すように、副変速機構30の締結側油圧(Highクラッチ油圧)を上昇させる制御が行われる。この締結油圧上昇制御により、副変速機構30のクラッチ容量不足が解消され、エンジン1に加わる負荷抵抗が増大し、図8のH部に示すように、実スルー変速比の増大が抑えられるとともに、エンジン回転数の吹き上がりが抑えられる。
すなわち、副変速機構30での実イナーシャ停滞は、目標イナーシャ時間を、バリエータ20の回転落ち対策用イナーシャフェーズ時間、副変速機構30の協調変速イナーシャフェーズ時間というように、それぞれ設定することで懸念されることである。そして、副変速機構30での実イナーシャ停滞によりエンジン回転数の吹け上がりを検知すると、副変速機構30のHighクラッチ33の油圧を高める制御が行われる。つまり、エンジン回転数の吹け上がりを検知するまでは、副変速機構30のHighクラッチ33の油圧指令を変更しない。
したがって、副変速機構30とバリエータ20の目標イナーシャフェーズ時間を異ならせる協調制御を最大限保ちつつ、副変速機構30での実イナーシャ停滞によりエンジン回転数が吹け上がってしまうことを抑制することができる。
