Abstract
Abstract THIS INVENTION RELATES TO TRANSMISSION APPARATUS OF THE FLUID VARIETY WHICH INCLUDES VARIOUS SPEED CHANGE GEARING. ACCORDING TO THE INVENTION, THE FLOW SPEED OF THE CIRCULATING VOLUME WITHIN THE TORQUE CONVERTOR PORTION OF TRANSMISSION APPARATUS IS DETECTED AND THEREAFTER UTILIZED IN THE APPLICATION OF PRESSURIZED OIL TO THE VARIOUS PORTIONS OF THE TRANSMISSION APPARATUS SO THAT AN OIL PRESSURE PROPORTIONAL TO THE FLOW SPEED OF THE CIRCULATING VOLUME IS OBTAINED. THE OBTAINED PRESSURIZED OIL IS THEN USED AS THE ACTUATING FLUID FOR THE RESPECTIVE CLUTCHES AND BRAKE BANDS PRESENT WITHIN THE TRANSMISSION APPARATUS WHICH ACT IN COMBINATION TO CHANGE THE RATIOS OF THE SPEED CHANGE GEARING AND, IN ADDITION THERETO, DETECT THE SHIFT POINTS AT WHICH THE AUTOMATIC CHANGES IN THE GEAR RATIOS ARE CARRIED OUT.
