20080269013 | CONTROL DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - “Threshold A is substituted in a power-on state, “threshold B”, which is lower than “threshold A”, is substituted in a power-off state, and “threshold C”, which is lower than “threshold B” is substituted during a brake operation, as a rapid deceleration determination threshold. The rotational speed of an output shaft of an automatic transmission and the rapid deceleration determination threshold are compared to determine whether a vehicle is rapidly decelerating. The engagement state of a lock-up clutch is controlled based on whether the vehicle is rapidly decelerating. | 10-30-2008 |

20100100291 | VEHICLE, AND CONTROL METHOD AND CONTROL APPARATUS FOR AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - An ECU executes a program including the steps of: if downshift from a fifth gear implemented when a brake and a clutch both engage to a second gear implemented when a clutch and a brake both engage is done, or downshift from a sixth gear implemented when the brake and the clutch both engage to a third gear implemented when the clutch and the brake both engage is done, disengaging a frictional engagement element other than the clutch, i.e., the brake or the brake; and decreasing an engagement pressure that is applied to the clutch to a reference value of target engagement pressure. | 04-22-2010 |
20100292048 | CONTROL DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - When it is determined to perform nth to (n+1)th coast downshift during nth to (n+1)th power-off upshift, an ECU starts increasing control to increase the hydraulic pressure of an engage-side element A in a predetermined mode and maintains the hydraulic pressure of a release-side element B at a value at which the increasing control is started until a predetermined period of time elapses from when the start of the increasing control. When a turbine rotational speed does not increase even after the predetermined period of time has elapsed, as the turbine rotational speed decreases below a value lower by a predetermined value than a synchronous rotational speed in the (n+1)th gear, the ECU executes feedback control over the hydraulic pressure of the element B so that the turbine rotational speed becomes the value lower by the predetermined value than the synchronous rotational speed in the (n+1)th gear. | 11-18-2010 |
20110238275 | CONTROL APPARATUS FOR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - An ECU executes a program including causing a brake to enter an engaged state, when first gear is implemented and when a difference between an output shaft rotation speed estimated from an input shaft rotation speed and a detected output shaft rotation speed is greater than a threshold value. When the brake enters the engaged state, the relative rotation between the inner race and the outer race of a one-way clutch is limited. | 09-29-2011 |
20110315499 | CONTROL APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - An ECU executes a program including the steps of: starting monitoring the turbine revolution speed and the output shaft revolution speed when a direct shift is started; performing complete disengagement control on a disengagement element; lowering control pressure of a disengagement element to preliminarily fixed control pressure; starting engagement control on an engagement element when a set time period Ts passes; performing complete disengagement control on the disengagement element when a set time period Ts passes; and starting the engagement control on an engagement element when turbine revolution speed NT is equal to or larger than (the synchronous revolution speed of a gear after a shift—a set value Ns). | 12-29-2011 |
20110320097 | CONTROL APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - When a post-direct shift gear position does not match a target gear position during a direct shift but before engagement of an input clutch for the post-direct shift gear position begins, an ECU executes engagement control on a reaction brake for the new target gear position instead of executing engagement control on a reaction brake for the post-direct shift gear position, and executes engagement control on an input clutch for the new target gear position instead of executing engagement control on an input clutch for the post-direct shift gear position. | 12-29-2011 |

20080312037 | Automatic Gear Control Device - A control apparatus for an automatic transmission including a gear-type transmission mechanism connected to an output shaft of a motive power source, the gear-type transmission including plural frictional engagement elements. The control apparatus senses a power-on downshift in which the frictional engagement elements are engaged during a downshift in a driving state of the motive power source, controls the motive power source so that in the power-on downshift an output of the motive power source is reduced, counts a time during which an input rotational speed of the transmission mechanism approximates an after-shift synchronous rotational speed, and controls the motive power source so that, if the time exceeds a predetermined time while the output of the motive power source is reduced, recovery from the reduction of the output of the motive power source is attained. | 12-18-2008 |
