Transmission Shuttle Shift Deceleration Method

View page
US Patent:
53536622, Oct 11, 1994
Filed:
Jan 29, 1993
Appl. No.:
8/010942
Inventors:
Kevin L. Vaughters - Altamont KS
Assignee:
Deere & Company - Moline IL
International Classification:
B60K 2010
US Classification:
74336R
Abstract:
A powershift transmission includes a plurality of clutches, including a final or directional set of clutches. The clutches are controlled by electro-hydraulic direct acting valves and two electro-hydraulic proportional or pressure modulating valves. The pressure modulating valves modulate the pressure supplied to the direct acting valves associated with the three directional clutches. Vehicle deceleration during a shuttle shift is achieved by releasing (unpressurizing) all clutches, then gradually pressurizing only two clutches in the final or directional set.

US Patent:
58423753, Dec 1, 1998
Filed:
Feb 18, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/800431
Inventors:
William Edward Reeves - Coffeyville KS
Kevin Lee Vaughters - Altamont KS
George William Detrick - Coffeyville KS
Norval Thomas Gruver - Independence KS
Briton Todd Eastman - Coffeyville KS
Assignee:
Deere & Company - Moline IL
International Classification:
F16D 2104
F16H 5900
US Classification:
74335
Abstract:
The hydraulically operated clutch elements of a powershift transmission have hold pressures and fast-fill times which are calibrated as a function of the rotation speed of an internal component of the transmission. The engine speed remains substantially constant and no or substantially no torque is transmittted to the output shaft of the transmission.
