Transmission control system with separate shift timing control pressure supply passage

Patent ·
OSTI ID:6091944

This patent describes an automatic transmission, for a gear transmission mechanism comprising first and second hydraulic pressure actuated friction engaging devices which comprise respective first and second pressure chambers. The gear transmission mechanism provides a certain lower speed stage when the first friction engaging device is engaged by supply of actuating hydraulic fluid pressure to the first pressure chamber and the second friction engaging device is disengaged by non-supply of actuating hydraulic fluid pressure to the second pressure chamber, and a certain higher speed stage one speed stage above the certain lower speed stage when the first friction engaging device is disengaged by non-supply of actuating hydraulic fluid pressure to the first pressure chamber and the second friction engaging device is engaged by supply of actuating hydraulic fluid pressure to the second pressure chamber, the second pressure chamber having a hole for passage of hydraulic fluid.
