Multi-ratio automatic transmission with independent rate of engagement and/or disengagement control of friction elements
A multi-ratio automatic transmission (10) for a vehicle, the transmission (10) having at least one planetary gear set (16, 18), a plurality of friction elements (C1, C2, C3, B1, B2) for coupling components of the planetary gear set (16, 18) between an input and an output of the transmission in diffe...

Zusammenfassung: | A multi-ratio automatic transmission (10) for a vehicle, the transmission (10) having at least one planetary gear set (16, 18), a plurality of friction elements (C1, C2, C3, B1, B2) for coupling components of the planetary gear set (16, 18) between an input and an output of the transmission in different configurations so as to achieve a plurality of drive ratios, and a control system (26) for selectively engaging/disengaging the friction elements (C1, C2, C3, B1, B2) in different combinations to effect selection of the ratios, wherein rate of engagement and/or disengagement of one or more of the friction elements (C1, C2, C3, B1, B2) is controlled independently of the or each of the other friction element(s) (C1, C2, C3, B1, B2). |
