To achieve these goals, the invention provides following technological scheme:
A kind of controlling method of automatic catch clutch, this method comprises:
Step 1: detector determines whether automobile is in the starting state;
Step 2: when the gas that is in the starting state unclamped, controller is controlled described clutch made zero clutch pressure moment;
Step 3: after described clutch pressure moment made zero, the described clutch pressure of controller closed loop control increases gradually made clutch pressure reach the requirement that idling is travelled.
Preferably, described clutch is wet clutch.
Preferably, in described step 3, the described clutch pressure of controller closed loop control increases gradually to be made clutch reach the travel speed of a motor vehicle of described automobile when requiring of idling to be not less than the speed of a motor vehicle of idling when travelling.
Preferably, described controller is transmission control unit or car running computer.
The present invention also provides a kind of control gear that is applicable to the automatic catch clutch of said method, and this device comprises:
Detector is used for determining whether automobile is in the starting state;
Controller is used for when the gas that is in the starting state unclamps, and controller is controlled described clutch makes zero clutch pressure moment; And after described clutch pressure moment made zero, the described clutch pressure of controller closed loop control increases gradually made clutch pressure reach the requirement that idling is travelled.Preferably, described clutch is wet clutch.Described controller is transmission control unit or car running computer.
There is following technique effect at least in the embodiment of the invention:

Embodiment
For the purpose, technological scheme and the advantage that make the embodiment of the invention is clearer, below in conjunction with accompanying drawing specific embodiment is described in detail.
A kind of controlling method of automatic catch clutch, this method comprises:
Step 1: detector determines whether automobile is in the starting state;
Step 2: when the gas that is in the starting state unclamped, controller is controlled described clutch made zero clutch pressure moment;
Step 3: after described clutch pressure moment made zero, the described clutch pressure of controller closed loop control increases gradually made clutch pressure reach the requirement that idling is travelled.When the present invention unclamped at described throttle, controller is controlled described clutch made zero clutch pressure moment, thereby has eliminated the process that clutch pressure reduces gradually, has avoided clutch pressure to reduce too fast or slow excessively problem; After described clutch pressure moment made zero, the described clutch pressure of controller closed loop control increases gradually made clutch pressure reach the requirement that idling is travelled.
In embodiments of the present invention, the wet clutch with automatic transmission illustrates process of the present invention.Fig. 1 showed clutch pressure, brake signal, the speed of a motor vehicle, gas pedal aperture, motor and speed changer conjugation grade respectively with time relation.
As shown in Figure 1:
Stage A: clutch is opened (open) state
The driver slams brake, and automobile is parked in the original place, and this moment, clutch pressure was zero.
Stage B: clutch idling (creep) state that travels
Driver's releasing of brake, but do not step on the gas, clutch pressure begins to raise, until there being moment of torsion to be delivered to speed changer.In the present embodiment, controller is the TCU(control unit for automatic shift), detector is integrated among the described TCU as a unit, and in other embodiments, described controller also can be car running computer.TCU serves as the control target with idling speed of operation (as 4kph), in the clutch pressure curve shown in Fig. 1-e, controller carries out PID(Proportion Integration Differentiation to clutch pressure) closed loop control (refer to as controlled output turn back in a certain way as control input end, and input end is applied a kind of control relation of control influence), automobile is creeped with the target vehicle speed of 4kph.
Stage C: clutch starting (take-off) state
The driver steps on the throttle, and TCU receives throttle signal, increases clutch pressure, and to transmit more Engine torque, this moment, clutch entered the starting stage.The starting-up process of clutch is the process of clutch from sliding wear to complete locking, but when starting-up process is still uncompleted, if the driver unclamps throttle suddenly, Engine torque will sharply reduce, TCU need reduce clutch pressure, reducing the load of motor, and the speed of a motor vehicle is reduced, get back to the idling driving cycle.
This moment is too fast if clutch pressure reduces, and easily makes clutch pressure less than the idling goal pressure of travelling, and makes speed too small, as not reaching 4kph in the present embodiment, can not satisfy the idling requirement of travelling; Otherwise if clutch pressure reduced slowly, it is slow that the clutch load was reduced, and makes engine speed cross low and breathing heavily influence travelling comfort, also may cause flame-out in the time of seriously.Reduce the too fast or slow excessively situation of process for fear of clutch pressure and take place, the present invention designs stage D.
Stage D: the transition state that clutch is opened fully (roll-out)
The present invention lays down clutch pressure earlier fully, gets back to the state of opening.This moment, automobile relied on inertia, in the blink that clutch is thrown off fully, still can continue to travel.
Stage E: clutch idling (creep) state that travels
After clutch was opened fully, TCU can open the operating mode in when brake according to the stage A souththern pine, by the PID closed loop control, makes clutch be operated in the idling driving cycle, and as can be seen, the clutch pressure when stage B and stage E is basic identical on Fig. 1-a and Fig. 1-e.
Shown in Fig. 1-d, when stage E, TCU controls described clutch pressure and increases gradually and make clutch reach travel the speed of a motor vehicle when requiring of idling, is not less than the speed of a motor vehicle of idling when travelling.
By above-mentioned narration to Fig. 1 as can be known, the present invention opened clutch earlier before clutch becomes the idling travelling state from the starting state fully, made clutch carry out the transition to the idling travelling state via full open position then.
As from the foregoing, the embodiment of the invention has following advantage:
1) the present invention is when throttle unclamps in starting-up process, and controller is controlled described clutch makes zero clutch pressure moment, thereby has eliminated the process that clutch pressure reduces gradually, has avoided clutch pressure to reduce too fast or slow excessively problem; After described clutch pressure moment made zero, the described clutch pressure of controller closed loop control increases gradually made clutch pressure reach the requirement that idling is travelled.
2) the described clutch pressure of controller closed loop control of the present invention increases gradually and makes clutch reach the travel speed of a motor vehicle of described automobile when requiring of idling, be not less than the speed of a motor vehicle of idling when travelling, thus the speed of a motor vehicle when having avoided the speed of a motor vehicle of automobile to be lower than idling and the motor acting step that causes.
3) the present invention becomes the continous curve formula process that motor and speed changer separate gradually into a kind of step type, non-continuity curvilinear style process.
4) prior art is that clutch pressure is reduced gradually, and the present invention reduces clutch pressure earlier and then increases, thereby has changed the working procedure of clutch in essence.
The above only is preferred implementation of the present invention; should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, under the prerequisite that does not break away from the principle of the invention; can also make some improvements and modifications, these improvements and modifications also should be considered as protection scope of the present invention.
