(Also referred to as a target value for controlling the engagement pressure) is calculated so as to increase over time, and the engagement pressure of the lockup clutch 20 is controlled based on the calculated engagement capacity instruction value. There is a feature in the point.
- the operating state of the lock-up clutch 20 includes a lock-up state in which the input / output elements of the torque converter 2 are directly connected (completely engaged state), a complete release between the input / output elements, and torque via the fluid.
- a converter state in which transmission is performed
- a slip state in which the lock-up clutch 20 is in a semi-engaged state and the input / output elements are maintained in a predetermined slip state.
- the torque of the lockup clutch 20 is changed.
- An instruction value T LU of the engagement capacity which is a transmission capacity (hereinafter also simply referred to as an engagement capacity T LU ) is periodically obtained, and an instruction of the engagement pressure of the lockup clutch is performed by open loop control according to the engagement capacity T LU.
- a value P LU (hereinafter, also simply referred to as a fastening pressure P LU ) is controlled.
- the engagement capacity T LU and the engagement pressure P LU of the lockup clutch 20 have a relationship in which the engagement pressure P LU increases (for example, increases linearly) as the engagement capacity T LU increases.
- the fastening capacity TLU is increased with time to change from the converter state to the slip state. If the lock-up (complete fastening) is suddenly performed, a fastening shock is caused and the ride comfort of the vehicle is impaired. Therefore, when the lock-up clutch 20 is brought into the lock-up state, control (smooth-on control) is performed in which the torque transmission capacity is gradually increased to smoothly shift to lock-up.
- an initial value (smooth-on initial value) is given to the fastening pressure PLU to increase in a stepped manner. And then gradually increase in a ramp shape.
- the smooth-on initial value is for starting the lock-up clutch 20 in the converter state to the engagement side so that the gap between the clutches is close to 0 (stuck), and immediately before the lock-up clutch 20 shifts to the slip state. It is set to a size that will result in a state of.
- the ramp 2 having a relatively small increase rate is gradually increased, and thereafter, the ramp 1 having a relatively large increase rate is gradually increased.

- the lamp 1 is switched and the lamp 1 does not take excessive time for fastening.
- the fastening pressure PLU is increased at a moderate increase rate that can avoid the risk of sudden fastening.
- the differential rotation speed (slip rotation speed) ⁇ N between the input and output elements of the torque converter 2 is a minute engagement determination reference value (second predetermined value) ⁇ N0 or less near zero. Then, assuming that the slip state is switched to the lock-up state, the fastening pressure PLU is increased stepwise so that the lock-up state can be reliably maintained. However, the determination of the lockup state is performed after filtering the calculated slip rotation number ⁇ N for noise cancellation.
- the lock-up clutch 20 is switched from the slip state to the lock-up state because the torque capacity (fastening capacity) TLU transmitted by the lock-up clutch 20 is input to the torque converter 2 (and therefore the lock-up clutch 20). This is when the torque Tcin is exceeded, and depends on the input torque Tcin. That is, in the slip state, even without increasing engagement capacity T LU of the lock-up clutch 20 is switched to the lockup state if lowered input torque Tcin, also engagement capacity T LU of the lock-up clutch 20 is increased input If the torque Tcin increases, it will not be easily switched to the lock-up state.

Since it is also supplied to 110, it may not be possible to achieve a quick switch to the lock-up state without understanding the input torque Tcin in consideration of this point.

- the engagement control section 8H controls the sudden increase of the lock-up clutch 20 during the above-described ramp control for controlling the engagement capacity TLU to increase with time. Control is performed to avoid the fastening and to achieve quick switching to the lock-up state.
- the control for avoiding the sudden fastening is performed when the control for increasing the fastening pressure PLU is performed by the lamps 1 and 2 during the smooth-on control. That is, since to increase the engagement pressure P LU of the lock-up clutch 20 in steps, between until the revolution speed difference ⁇ N is less engagement determination reference value .DELTA.n0, depression return accelerator to avoid rapid engagement by the accelerator stepping back Implement control. Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the control related to the early switching is performed when the control is performed to increase the fastening pressure PLU by the lamp 1 during the smooth on control.
- the opening decrease determination unit 8A reads the accelerator opening APO detected by the accelerator opening sensor 91 at a predetermined control cycle (calculation cycle), and determines whether the accelerator opening APO has decreased.
- the input torque estimation unit 8B estimates the input torque Tcin input from the engine 1 to the torque converter 2 at a predetermined control cycle. As described above, the output torque Te of the engine 1 is supplied not only to the torque converter 2 but also to the auxiliary machine 110 driven by the engine 1. Therefore, the input torque estimation unit 8B estimates the input torque Tcin in consideration of the operating state of the auxiliary machine 110.

- the input torque estimation unit 8B discloses the output torque Te of the engine at that time from, for example, Patent Document 1 from the engine speed (engine speed) Ne and the throttle opening TPO.
- the calculation is performed by a known method.
- an amount (auxiliary drive torque) T AC of the auxiliary machine 110 sent from the engine output torque Te is calculated from the operating state of the auxiliary machine (air conditioner compressor) 110.
- the operating state of the auxiliary machine 110 is grasped by a signal from the signal output unit 93 a of the air conditioner controller 93.
- the auxiliary machine driving torque T AC corresponds to the operating state of the auxiliary machine 110.
- the input torque estimating section 8B calculates the input torque Tcin by subtracting the accessory driving torque T AC from the engine output torque Te.
- the torque increase determination unit 8C determines whether or not the input torque Tcin estimated by the input torque estimation unit 8B increases. That is, the torque increase determination unit 8C reads the input torque Tcin at a predetermined control period, and the input torque change amount ⁇ Tcin that is the difference between the current value Tcin (n) and the previous value Tcin (n ⁇ 1) of the input torque Tcin.
- Tcin (n) ⁇ Tcin (n ⁇ 1)] is compared with the threshold value ⁇ Tcin1 (where ⁇ Tcin1> 0), and if the input torque change amount ⁇ Tcin is greater than the threshold value ⁇ Tcin1 ( ⁇ Tcin> ⁇ Tcin1), the input torque Tcin Is determined to have increased.
- the engagement capacity calculation unit 8D includes a first calculation unit (steady-state engagement capacity calculation unit) 8e that calculates a normal-time engagement capacity, and a second calculation unit (torque increase-time engagement capacity calculation unit) that calculates a torque increase torque. 8f and a third calculation unit (engagement capacity calculation unit when the accelerator opening is decreased) 8g for calculating the engagement capacity when the accelerator opening is decreased.
- Each calculation unit 8e to 8g has a predetermined control cycle (calculation cycle). The calculation is executed every time.
- the first calculation unit 8e calculates a steady-state fastening capacity used when the input torque Tcin is in a steady state.
- a predetermined change amount (a constant amount) ⁇ T LU 1 (however, the previous engagement capacity T LU (n ⁇ 1)) , ⁇ T LU 1> 0) is added to calculate the current fastening capacity T LU (n).
- the fastening capacity T LU (n) thus obtained is a steady-state fastening capacity.
- the fastening capacity T LU (n) increases at a constant increase rate with time.
- the second calculation unit 8f calculates a torque increase engagement capacity used when the input torque Tcin is increasing.
- a predetermined change amount (a constant amount) ⁇ T is added to the previous engagement capacity T LU (n ⁇ 1) in each control cycle.
- LU 1 (where ⁇ T LU 1> 0) is added, and a correction fastening capacity change amount ⁇ T LU ( ⁇ Tcin) based on the increase ⁇ Tcin of the input torque Tcin is added to determine the current fastening capacity T LU ( n) is calculated.
- the fastening capacity T LU (n) obtained thereby is the fastening capacity at the time of torque increase.
- the fastening capacity T LU (n) is larger than when the steady-time fastening capacity is used over time. Increases at an increasing rate.
- the third calculation unit 8g calculates a fastening capacity when the accelerator opening is decreased, which is used when the accelerator opening APO is decreasing.
- the third arithmetic unit 8 g in each control cycle, the previous engagement capacity T LU (n-1) to the accelerator opening APO opening decrement? APO (However,? APO ⁇
- the fastening capacity change amount ⁇ T LU ( ⁇ APO) based on 0) is subtracted to calculate the current fastening capacity T LU (n).
- the engagement capacity T LU (n) thus obtained is the engagement capacity when the accelerator opening is decreased.
- the engagement capacity T LU (n) decreases with time.
- the engagement capacity calculation unit 8D determines that the accelerator opening APO is not decreasing and determines that the input torque Tcin does not increase. If it is determined that the steady-state engagement capacity calculated by the first calculation unit 8e is not decreasing the accelerator opening APO and the input torque Tcin is increased, the second calculation unit When it is determined that the torque increase engagement capacity calculated in 8f is decreased, the accelerator opening decrease engagement capacity calculated by the third calculation unit 8g is adopted as the engagement capacity. .
- Engagement control section 8H controls the engagement pressure P LU of the lock-up clutch 20 based on the engagement capacity T LU calculated in torque capacity calculating section 8D. That is, in the fastening control unit 8H, when it is determined that the accelerator opening APO is not decreasing and the input torque Tcin is not increasing, the fastening control unit 8H is a constant value that is an instruction value calculated by the first calculating unit 8e. When it is determined that the accelerator opening APO is not decreasing and the input torque Tcin is increased based on the constant engagement capacity, the torque engagement is the instruction value calculated by the second calculation unit 8f.
- the lock-up clutch 20 of the lock-up clutch 20 is determined based on the accelerator opening decreasing engagement capacity that is an instruction value calculated by the third calculation unit 8g. Control the fastening capacity.
- the engagement control section 8H with reference to the conversion map, not shown, converts the torque capacity T LU to engagement pressure P LU.
- the obtained engagement pressure PLU is converted into a command value (lockup duty) of the lockup solenoid 77, and the lockup solenoid 77 is controlled by this command value to control the state of the lockup clutch 20.
- the lockup clutch 20 can be controlled. Note that the flowchart of FIG. 4 is performed at the time of engaging control for switching the lock-up clutch 20 from the converter state to the locked-up state (during smooth-on control and ⁇ N0 ⁇ ⁇ N ⁇ ⁇ N1). Repeated in the control cycle.
- the initial value T LU (1) of the engagement capacity is set in advance to a value corresponding to the initial value (smooth-on initial value) of the engagement pressure P LU .
- the opening degree decrease determination unit 8A compares the accelerator opening change amount ⁇ APO with a threshold value ⁇ APO1 (where ⁇ APO1 ⁇ 0) to determine whether or not the accelerator opening APO has decreased (step S30). If the accelerator opening change amount ⁇ APO is smaller than the threshold value ⁇ APO1, it is determined that the accelerator opening APO has decreased.
- the engagement capacity calculation unit 8D causes the third calculation unit 8g to reduce the opening decrease ⁇ APO of the accelerator opening APO to the previous engagement capacity T LU (n ⁇ 1) (however, The current engagement capacity T LU (n) is calculated by subtracting the engagement capacity change amount ⁇ T LU ( ⁇ APO) based on ⁇ APO ⁇ 0) (step S40). The engagement capacity T LU (n) calculated in this way (the engagement capacity when the accelerator opening is decreased) decreases with time. Then, the process proceeds to step S90.
- a change amount ⁇ Tcin of the input torque Tcin input to the torque converter 2 estimated by the input torque estimation unit 8B is calculated (step S50)
- the torque increase determination unit 8C determines whether or not the input torque Tcin has increased (step S60).
- the first calculation unit 8e adds a predetermined change amount (constant amount) ⁇ T LU 1 (however, to the previous engagement capacity T LU (n ⁇ 1)). , ⁇ T LU 1> 0) is added to calculate the current fastening capacity T LU (n) (step S70).
- the fastening capacity T LU (n) (steady-time fastening capacity) calculated in this way increases at a constant rate with time. Then, the process proceeds to step S90.
- the first calculation unit 8e changes the predetermined engagement amount T LU (n ⁇ 1) to a predetermined change amount (constant amount) ⁇ T LU 1 (where ⁇ T LU 1> 0) is added, and the engagement capacity change amount ⁇ T LU ( ⁇ Tcin) based on the increase ⁇ Tcin of the input torque Tcin is added to calculate the current engagement capacity T LU (n) (step S80).
- the calculated engagement capacity T LU (n) (torque increase engagement capacity) increases with time at a larger increase rate than the stationary engagement capacity. Then, the process proceeds to step S90.
- the torque increase determination unit 8C determines that the input torque Tcin has increased, for example, when the output torque Te of the engine 1 increases as the accelerator pedal is stepped on, or when the auxiliary equipment 110 such as the compressor of the air conditioner is in the operating state. This is a case of switching to the stopped state. If the accelerator opening is maintained after the accelerator pedal is depressed, or if this state is maintained after the auxiliary machine 110 is stopped, the input torque Tcin is not increased in step S60. In step S70, a predetermined amount of change ⁇ T LU 1 is added to the previous engagement capacity T LU (n ⁇ 1) to calculate the current engagement capacity T LU (n).
- step S90 when the fastening capacity T LU (n) applied to the fastening capacity when the accelerator opening is decreased, the fastening capacity when stationary, or the fastening capacity when torque is increased is calculated, the fastening control unit 8H converted to convert the capacity T LU to engagement pressure P LU (step S90), the command value of the lock-up solenoid 77 and the resulting engagement pressure P LU (lockup duty), according to the lock-up solenoid 77 by the command value A hydraulic pressure state is instructed to control the state of the lockup clutch 20 (step S100).
- FIG. 5 shows an example in which the accelerator opening APO decreases during the engagement control of the lock-up clutch 20, that is, the engagement capacity T LU (n) related to the engagement capacity when the accelerator opening is decreased is employed. It is a time chart. As shown by the solid line in FIG. 5, when at time t 11 depression return of the accelerator pedal is (decrease the accelerator opening APO), decrease of decrease (control period per accelerator opening APO at this time, reduction rate equivalent) engagement pressure P LU according to ⁇ APO is lowered, rapid engagement of the lockup clutch 20 is avoided.
- engagement pressure P decrease of LU is because it is set according to the size of the reduction amount ⁇ APO accelerator opening APO, excess engagement pressure P LU Therefore, it is possible to avoid excessive time until the lockup clutch 20 is engaged while avoiding sudden engagement of the lockup clutch 20.
- the accelerator pedal is stepped back at time t 11 , and thereafter, the accelerator pedal is held constant, and the fastening pressure PLU is reduced by the stepping back of the accelerator pedal. Thereafter, the ramp control for increasing the fastening pressure PLU in a ramp shape according to the smooth-on control is continued again.
- This smooth-on control the revolution speed difference between the input and output elements of the torque converter 2 at the time point t 12 (slip rotational speed) .DELTA.N becomes less engagement determination reference value .DELTA.n0 (e.g. 10 rpm), the lock-up clutch 20 at this time It is determined that the engagement is complete, the smooth on control is terminated, and the engagement pressure PLU is increased stepwise.
- the slip rotation number ⁇ N is actually equal to or less than the engagement determination reference value ⁇ N0 (for example, 10 rpm). After that, there is a certain time lag after a short time. During this time, the complete engagement determination is in progress and the smooth-on control is not terminated. However, here, when the raw computed value of the slip rotational speed ⁇ N becomes less engagement determination reference value .DELTA.n0, it prohibits the reduction control of the engagement pressure P LU.
- FIG. 6 shows a case where there is no decrease in the accelerator opening APO during the engagement control of the lockup clutch 20 and there is an increase in the engine output torque Te due to an increase in the accelerator pedal, that is, the engagement relating to the engagement capacity when the torque is increased.
- the engine speed Ne and the turbine speed Nt are shown on the same reference axis (rotation speed 0).
- the fastening pressure PLU is also increased as shown by the broken line. Because the accelerator opening degree immediately after the time t 23 is gradually increased in small, but it is slightly plus correction of engagement pressure P LU, the plus correction of the engagement pressure P LU, so that the slip rotational speed ⁇ N is indicated by a broken line Therefore, the lowering of the lockup clutch 20 is accelerated and the shift to the lockup state of the lockup clutch 20 is accelerated.
- the amount of change in engagement capacity ⁇ T LU also increases and the engagement pressure P LU increases in response to an increase in the input torque Tcin to the torque converter 2, and therefore the engine speed Ne is indicated by a broken line.
- the slip rotational speed ⁇ N decreases more quickly than in the case where the control is not performed (solid line), and converges toward 0 more quickly and stably than in the case where the control is not performed (solid line).
- the lock-up determination is made earlier (time t 25 ′) than the lock-up determination timing (time t 25 ) in the non-control time shown.
- the lock-up clutch 20 is quickly engaged within a range that does not cause an engagement shock. Further, judder (abnormal vibration) is likely to occur if the lock-up clutch 20 is in the vicinity of the boundary between the slip state and the lock-up state, but such a judder is also generated because the slip rotational speed ⁇ N is stably reduced. It can be avoided.
- FIG. 6 is a case where the input torque Tcin to the torque converter 2 increases as the engine output torque Te itself increases, and there is no change in the operating state of the auxiliary device 110 driven by the engine. Even if the engine output torque Te itself does not increase, the input torque Tcin to the torque converter 2 increases when the auxiliary machine 110 driven by the engine changes from the operating state to the stopped state. .
- FIG. 7 is a time chart illustrating such a case.
- the fastening of the correction capacitance variation ⁇ T LU ( ⁇ Tcin) also calculates the addition of the engagement capacity variation ⁇ T LU ( ⁇ Tcin)
- the fastening pressure PLU is also increased as shown by the broken line. Because the accelerator opening degree immediately after the time t 33 is gradually increased in small, but it is slightly plus correction of engagement pressure P LU, the plus correction of the engagement pressure P LU, so that the slip rotational speed ⁇ N is indicated by a broken line Therefore, the lowering of the lockup clutch 20 is accelerated, and the shift of the lockup clutch 20 to the lockup state is accelerated.
- the steps so far are the same as the example shown in FIG.
- Accessory here, air conditioning compressor
- auxiliary machine 110 driven by the engine is stopped from the operation, the part of the engine torque Te consumed by the auxiliary machine 110 is supplied to the torque converter 2.
- the input torque Tcin also increases rapidly.
- the correction engagement capacity change amount ⁇ T LU ( ⁇ Tcin) for correction is also increased, and the engagement pressure P LU is also increased as indicated by the broken line in accordance with the increase in the engagement capacity change amount ⁇ T LU ( ⁇ Tcin).
- the amount of change in engagement capacity ⁇ T LU ( ⁇ Tcin) also increases and the engagement pressure P LU increases in response to an increase in the input torque Tcin to the torque converter 2.
- Ne is quickly reduced as compared with the case where the control is not performed as indicated by the broken line (solid line), and the slip rotational speed ⁇ N converges toward 0 more quickly and stably than the case where the control is not performed as indicated by the broken line (solid line).
- the lock-up determination is made earlier (time t 35 ′) than the lock-up determination timing (time t 35 ) at the time of non-control indicated by a solid line.
- the lock-up clutch 20 is quickly engaged within a range that does not cause an engagement shock. Further, judder (abnormal vibration) is likely to occur if the lock-up clutch 20 is in the vicinity of the boundary between the slip state and the lock-up state, but such a judder is also generated because the slip rotational speed ⁇ N is stably reduced. It can be avoided.
- the output torque (auxiliary load) to the auxiliary machine 110 of the engine 1 is reduced, an example of an increase in the input torque Tcin due to switching of the auxiliary machine 110 from on to off.
- the output torque (auxiliary load) of the engine 1 to the auxiliary device 110 is reduced and input even when the auxiliary device 110 is turned on, even when the high output operating state is switched to the low output operating state. Since the torque Tcin increases, the input torque increase control can be applied also in this case.
- the start condition of this control is made to coincide with the condition for switching from the lamp 2 to the lamp 1 in the lamp control, so that the differential rotational speed ⁇ N becomes equal to or less than the first predetermined value ⁇ N1.
- these conditions do not necessarily have to be matched.
- the control for decreasing the engagement capacity of the lockup clutch is performed with priority on the basis of the decrease in the opening. 20 sudden engagement is avoided, and changes in vehicle behavior due to this are also avoided.
- the auxiliary load is reduced to the input torque Tcin to the torque converter 2 without using the control based on the decrease in the accelerator opening. In consideration of the above, even by controlling the engagement capacity of the lockup clutch 20, it is possible to reliably avoid the phenomenon of insufficient boosting that occurs at the time of transition to the lockup state.
