Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce vibration transmitted to a vehicle body, by isolating the transmission of torque from the front wheel drive system to the rear wheel drive system, completely at the position of a clutch means when the clutch means is disengaged. CONSTITUTION:The transmission of torque to the rear wheel side may be isolated by disengaging a clutch 12 disposed in a rear wheel propeller shaft 9. When a vehicle is stopped by actuating a foot brake or a hand brake while an automatic transmission 5 is set in a D-range, a controller judges that it is in an idle condition and therefore disengages the clutch 12. Then, no drive torque is transmitted to the rear differential gear 13 side so that the rear wheel output shaft of a center differential gear 7 races.

The controller 15 provides input information for controlling the clutch 12, and the shift position detection sensor 16 of the automatic transmission 5.
Then, the output signals of the brake sensor 17 and the vehicle speed sensor 18 are taken in. Based on this input information, it is determined that the automatic transmission 5 is in the D range (driving range), the brakes of the vehicle are operating, and the vehicle speed is, for example, 5 km/h.
1 idle state is detected when the condition is less than or equal to m, and the clutch 12 is disengaged only during this idle state, and the clutch 12 is kept engaged in other cases.

In the above configuration, the automatic transmission 5 is set to D range,
If the foot brake or handle rake is activated to stop the vehicle, the controller 15 determines that the vehicle is in the idle state and disengages the clutch 12. Then, the drive torque is no longer transmitted to the rear differential 13 side, and the rear wheel side output shaft of the center differential 7 idles.

Also, due to this idle rotation, the center differential 7
Therefore, almost no torque is transmitted to the front wheel propeller shaft 8. As a result, vibrations from the transmission 5 side are not transmitted to the rear differential gear 13 side, and almost no vibrations are transmitted to the front differential 10 side. Therefore, vibrations are not transmitted through the path of axle → tires → suspension → body, and the vibrations experienced by the occupant through the body are extremely small.

In the case of the Heart Time 4W1), the transfer has a clutch for switching between two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive. This clutch may be made to function in the same manner as the clutch 12 in the above embodiment. In other words, when the idle state is detected, the transfer is automatically switched from the four-wheel drive state to the two-wheel drive state, Once the idle state is resolved, control may be performed to return to the four-wheel drive state.
