Embodiment Construction

[0019] As required, specific embodiments of the claimed subject matter are disclosed herein; however, it is to be understood that the disclosed embodiments are merely examples and may be embodied in various and alternative forms. The figures are not necessarily to scale and some features may be exaggerated or minimized to show details of particular components. Therefore, specific structural and functional details disclosed herein are not to be interpreted as limiting, but merely as a representative basis for teaching one skilled in the art to variously employ embodiments of the claimed subject matter.

[0020] Shifting of multi-speed automatic transmissions occurs simultaneously with the application and / or release of multiple friction elements (such as plate clutches, band brakes, etc.) that change the speed and torque relationship by changing the gear configuration. The friction elements may be hydraulically actuated, mechanically actuated, or actuated by other strategies usi...

Abstract

The invention relates to automatic transmission shift control based on a transmission input shaft torque signal, and a system and a method for minimizing torque disturbances during a shift event for an automatic transmission control actual transmission input shaft torque using a transmission input shaft signal produced by an input shaft torque sensor. The torque sensor provides a signal to a controller that monitors the measured transmission input torque. The torque sensor may be implemented by a strain gauge, a piezoelectric load cell, or a magneto-elastic torque sensor. The system may include a vehicle powertrain having an engine, a transmission coupled to the engine via a torque converter, an input torque sensor coupled to the input shaft of the transmission and a controller configured to control engine torque to cause the measured transmission input shaft torque to achieve a target transmission input shaft torque during the shift event.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to shift control of a multi-speed automatic transmission based on a transmission input shaft torque signal. Background technique [0002] Multi-speed automatic transmissions in motor vehicle powertrains utilize multiple friction elements to automatically shift gear ratios. Typically, these friction elements can be described as torque building elements, but are more commonly referred to as clutches or brakes. Friction elements establish a power flow path from a torque source, such as an internal combustion engine or traction motor, to the vehicle's traction wheels. During vehicle acceleration, for a given accelerator pedal demand, the overall speed ratio (i.e., the ratio of transmission input shaft speed to transmission output shaft speed) decreases as the speed of the vehicle increases as the transmission upshifts through different ratios. Small. [0003] In the case of a synchronized upshift, the first torque-building...
