REDUNDANT CONTROLS FOR A MULTI-MODE TRANSMISSION

A transmission includes an electro-hydraulic controller that includes redundancy in the hydraulic circuit that permits single fault failures to be compensated for by changing the flow path of hydraulic fluid to bypass the single fault failure. The redundancy results in the ability of the transmissio...

Zusammenfassung:A transmission includes an electro-hydraulic controller that includes redundancy in the hydraulic circuit that permits single fault failures to be compensated for by changing the flow path of hydraulic fluid to bypass the single fault failure. The redundancy results in the ability of the transmission to maintain full operation in all modes. L'invention concerne une transmission qui comprend un dispositif de commande dont le circuit hydraulique intègre une redondance qui permet de compenser des défaillances isolées en modifiant le trajet d'écoulement du fluide hydraulique pour contourner la défaillance isolée. La redondance permet à la transmission de conserver un fonctionnement optimal dans tous les modes.
