Abstract

A control and regulating valve 3 which controls a clutch in an automatic transmission comprises a housing 4 and an axially moveable spool 5 that is moved by application of a magnetic force Fmag exerted on one end of the spool 5. At an opposite end of the spool 5 there is a rear chamber 7 and an accumulator consisting of a fixed plate with a central hydraulic opening 9, a spring 10 and a disc 11. The rear chamber 7 has an opening that is directly coupled to the clutch so that line pressure may be applied when the spool 5 has been moved to a certain position under the influence of the magnetic force Fmag which is due to a command current. The accumulator acts as a low frequency filter and the hydraulic opening 9 has to be calibrated to optimize dynamic behaviour in order to reduce or even eliminate oscillation amplitudes.

Description

DEVICE FOR ACTUATING A CLUTCH IN AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
The invention relates to a device for actuating a clutch in an automatic transmission.
In automatic transmissions, the following configuration is used to actuate the clutches: An actuator feed limit valve limiting the pressure to a desired value (e.g. at about 8.5 bar) which is connected to a variable bleed solenoid (VBS) controlling the pressure within the clutch. The VBS which is a very sensitive valve actuates the pressure regulator valve of the clutch. Due to a command current, a control pressure establishes at the output of the VBS thereby alimenting the regulating valve. With this configuration, it is possible to control the pressure close to the clutch.
An inconvenience of this device is the fact that it needs three valves. Further, as the VBS is alimented by the actuator limit valve, its dynamic behavior depends on the properties of the fluid (density, temperature, aeration) and the line pressure, so that the control of the clutch is very sensitive to these conditions.
There exist other configurations with only one pressure regulating valve (pressure regulator spool type from BOSCH for example), but the spool diameter is small, thereby limiting the flow rate so that these configurations are not suitable for all applications.
Aspects of the present invention seek to diminish the number of valves in the hydraulic circuit and to render the control of the valve less dependent on the working conditions.
This object is achieved according to the invention by a device for actuating a clutch in an automatic transmission, wherein a controlling and regulating valve is directly connected with its rear chamber to the clutch with means for applying a magnetic force on the front side of the valve and the line pressure force on the rear side and wherein the valve is configured in that upon applying a magnetic force on the front side of the valve, the line pressure is applied to the clutch and wherein an accumulator acting as low frequency filter is integrated into the rear chamber.
In order to maintain pressure inside the clutch, the rear side of the valve is directly connected to the clutch thereby exposing the valve to the pressure inside the clutch. There are two forces to be supported by the valve: On the one hand side, there is the magnetic force (Fmag), and on the other hand side the pressure force (Fp) . At the regulating point, these two forces are identical because the valve tends to an equilibrium position (this supposes that no leakage appears in the hydraulic circuit between valve and clutch, otherwise with a small leakage a correction on the magnetic force would be necessary to guarantee the clutch pressure) The valve functions as follows: In the beginning, there is no pressure in the clutch. A magnetic force (Fmag) is applied to the valve due to a command current, which makes the spool of the valve move to the right. When the spool has been displaced to a certain position, line pressure is applied to the clutch. This pressure is also applied to the rear chamber of the valve so that the valve starts regulating when the pressure in the clutch has reached a force which corresponds to the magnetic force applied.
The main advantages of the invention are the space optimization, the price of the valve and the reduced number of the valves in the circuit. Furthermore, by reducing the feed back piston valve area, the magnetic force of will be lower for reaching the same pressure level. Finally, the influence of fluid conditions like its temperature will be much lower and the fill time can be reduced drastically. A comparison of the system according to the prior art and the system of the invention shows that the fill time is reduced by 27 %. This fill time reduction is possible due to the fact that there is no offset in the valve. The low hysteresis spring tends to bring the valve back to its steady state position without any preload or offset.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, said accumulator comprises an axially rnoveable disc, a spring and a fixed plate with a central hydraulic opening, the spring pushing said disc against said fixed plate.
This accumulator acts as a low frequency filter. Thus, all the high frequencies are cut. To calculate the natural frequency of the valve, only the stiffness of the fluid and the valve area have to be taken into account. The return spring is not to be considered for the calculation because of its stiffness in comparison to the hydraulic stiffness. i1k

The expression above will be cut thanks to the accumulator.
In one embodiment of the invention, the accumulator is incorporated into the valve body.
In a still further embodiment of the invention, the hydraulic opening is calibrated in order to optimize the dynamic comportment of the system.
Any person skilled in the art will understand that the design of the accumulator and especially of the hydraulic opening has to be optimized in order to reduce or even eliminate the oscillation amplitudes.
A preferred embodiment of the present invention will now be described, by way of example only, with reference to the accompanying drawings, of which: FIGURE 1 shows a flow diagram of the proposed device, FIGURE 2 shows in detail how the accumulator is integrated inside the pressure regulator.
FIGURE 1 shows a flow diagram with the pump 1 and the proposed pressure regulator. The accumulator 2 located behind the spool valve allows to save space and acts in the same way if it were located close to the clutch device.
As can be seen from FIGURE 2, the device for actuating the clutch comprises a controlling and regulating valve 3. The valve can be represented as a cylindrical housing 4 with a spool 5 inside. This spool 5 can be moved axially in the housing 4 by exerting force on its ends. On the front side of the spool, a magnetic force (Fmag) may be applied to it due to a command current and on the rear side of the spool, a pressure force (Fp) may be applied. The housing 4 of the valve 3 has several openings 6, two of which being connected to the atmospheric pressure (EXH, meaning exhaust), one of which being connected to the low pressure circuit (EXH BACK FD, meaning to exhaust back feed), two of which being connected to the clutch (CLUTCH) and one of which being connected to the line pressure of the pump (LINE), the high pressure circuit. The openings 6 are in the following order (seen from the front side) EXH, EXH BACK FD, CLUTCH, LINE, EXH, CLUTCH. The spool 5 extends from the first EXH to the last EXH opening 6 and can either block the openings with its large diameter parties or allow fluid to pass from one opening 6 to a neighbored opening 6 with its small diameter parties. In the starting position, both the EXH BACK FD and the LINE openings are obstructed by the spool 5.
At the rear end of the spool 5, there is a rear chamber 7 with the second CLUTCH opening in the housing 4. More rearwards, there is a fixed plate 8 with a central hydraulic opening 9. A spring 10 fixed on the housing 4 pushes a disc 11 against the fixed plate 8. The fixed plate 8 with its central opening 9, the spring 10 and the disc 11 form the accumulator which acts as low frequency filter.
As the rear of the valve is directly connected to the clutch (CLUTCH), a force corresponding to the clutch pressure will be exerted onto the valve so that two forces are applied on the valve: On the front side, the magnetic force (Fmag) and on the rear side, the pressure force (Fp) The valve functions as follows: In the beginning, there is no pressure in the clutch. A magnetic force (Fmag) is applied to the valve due to a command current, which makes the spool 5 move to the right. When the spool has been displaced to a certain position, line pressure (LINE) is applied to the clutch (CLUTCH) This pressure is also applied to the rear chamber 7 of the valve (connected to the CLUTCH) so that the valve starts regulating when the pressure in the clutch has reached a force which corresponds to the magnetic force applied.
The diameter at the rear of the valve is reduced in order to need low magnetic forces even when the pressure in the clutch is elevated. The low diameter of the hydraulic opening 9 would cause an instable comportment of the valve in absence of the accumulator 2 according to the invention which is directly added to the rear chamber 7. It functions like a shock absorber and filters the high frequencies. The accumulator 2 may be directly integrated in the valve body which simplifies the manufacturing of the valve body.
The accumulator can also be considered to add a virtual volume.
This will be explained by the following considerations.
Km = Kh * Sac2, wherein Km is the mechanical stiffness, Kh is the hydraulic stiffness, and Sac is the surface of the piston of the accumulator.
Km = Mbulk / Vfluid * Sacc2, wherein Mbulk is the bulk modulus (compressibility of the fluid), and Vfluid is the volume of the fluid.
The equivalent virtual volume (Vvirt) is therefore Vvirt = Mbulk / Km * Sacc2 A numerical application with the following characteristic values Nbulk 14,000 bar Km = 14,000 N/rn Sacc = ri/4 * O,Ol shows that the equivalent virtual volume is Vvirt = 14,000e5 / 14,000 * (n/4 * 0,012)2 Vvirt = 616 cm3, whereas the volume behind the valve is only about 1 cm3.
