20150203103 | ENGINE START CONTROL DEVICE FOR HYBRID VEHICLE - In the present invention, a determination is made as to whether towing travel is under way, in which vehicle weight is increased, and when towing travel is under way, the compensating torque provided by a motor generator is decreased relative to the compensating torque provided during non-towing travel, and the torque of the motor generator is therefore reduced by a commensurate amount and fuel efficiency is enhanced. During towing travel in which the vehicle weight is large, a large drive force is usually necessary and the frequency of use of the motor generator increases; however, the compensating torque during engine start is reduced, and the load on the motor generator is thereby mitigated by a commensurate amount, and overheating and the like are suppressed. Since the inertia of the vehicle is relatively small during non-towing travel, i.e., normal travel, in which the vehicle weight is relatively small, variations in the drive force due to the engine starting torque are relatively increased, and shocks such as a sense of being pulled back become significant. However, because the compensating torque provided by the motor generator is increased correspondingly with the starting torque, shocks are adequately suppressed. | 07-23-2015 |

20150136253 | HYDRAULIC CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR DRIVE LINE - A hydraulic control circuit for a drive line includes first and second switching valves and first and second solenoid valves. Each switching valve is alternatively switched by a switching hydraulic pressure to connect any two of three ports. The first port of the first switching valve is connected to a hydraulic actuator. The first port of the second switching valve is connected to the second port of the first switching valve. The first solenoid valve supplies the switching hydraulic pressure to the switching valves. The second solenoid valve regulates a control hydraulic pressure supplied to the hydraulic actuator. Any one of three oil paths is communicated with the hydraulic actuator by supplying the control hydraulic pressure via the third port of the first switching valve or the second or third port of the second switching valve and supplying the switching hydraulic pressure to at least one switching valve. | 05-21-2015 |

20090157251 | Diagnostic system for automatic transmission - A diagnostic system for an automatic transmission is provided in which a microcomputer determines that torque that can drive the driving wheels of the vehicle is not transmitted to an output shaft of the automatic transmission when the vehicle is stopped and the ignition key is operated to the OFF position, and performs forced energization of solenoids of solenoid valves associated with respective friction devices of the transmission, while monitoring current passing through the solenoid valves. If the current monitored does not match the current for energizing any of the solenoids, the microcomputer determines that the corresponding solenoid valve is at fault. Thus, the diagnostic system appropriately determines the presence of a fault of each solenoid valve for controlling the hydraulic pressure to each friction device, with increased flexibility and freedom. | 06-18-2009 |
