This study investigated the effect of the changes in metal characteristics due to the hot forging on SCR420HB applied to ensure the optimal production of the hot-forging ratio on the mechanical properties of an automotive automatic transmission gear. The microstructural changes in the forging ratio were investigated by adjusting the forging range into multiple ranges from alloy steel. This was done in order to set the optimum forging range given the manufacturing process conditions during the hot forging of alloy steel parts with a carbon content of more than 0.8% wt. The effects of the content change in the microstructure on the mechanical properties due to the use of the part were examined.

The roller bearings play an important role not only sustain radial or axial load of system, but carry out a rotatory movement as a various operating conditions. They happen that incipient faults which were caused by excessive load, manufacturing or assembling process's errors and many other reasons are created. The bearing faults make noise and vibration by a continuous collision of rotatory components, which can lower the quality and stability of auto-transmission. Therefore, it is important to detect the early fault as soon as possible. This paper presents a detecting method for the improvement in quality by developing the program which can be used to analyze and predict the vibrational characteristics caused by roller bearing faults. We completed development of the inspection system of vibration by appling the most efficient detecting methods and verified the system's reliability through experiments.

Semi-spherical CVT(SS-CVT) is one of friction drives, which transmits power via the friction force between a spherical shaped variator and output disks. The variator varies the speed ratio of SS-CVT continuously as well as transmits input power into the output shaft. Therefore two friction forces are normally applied on the variator; one is the longitudinal friction force for power transmission and the other is the lateral for shifting. In order to investigate the dynamic behavior of SS-CVT, we introduced a numerical model of 2-dimensional friction force using a function of slip ratio and slip angle. And a dynamic model, which describes the shifting mechanism of SS-CVT, is developed through 3-dimensional vector analysis. Finally we presented numerical results of the shift characteristics focused on the transient behavior of the variator's slip ratio and slip angle. The numerical results also show the typical CVT shifting characteristics of SS-CVT and stable shifting behaviors of the variator.

As most of today's automatic transmissions in passenger car adopt a electro-hydraulic control system, the role of electronically controlled solenoid valves occupies an important position and it is essential to predict solenoid transient characteristics in order to design and evaluate the performance of the hydraulic control system. However, in general, both the magnetic and electrical parameters f the solenoid system are hardly known and it is not easy to model this section with moderate complexity although mechanical system could be developed using the classical second order system. This paper presents a dynamic modelling technique of a solenoid valve, that is controlled by pulse width modulation for an automatic transmission, in terms of system identification theory. In nonlinear computer simulation, it is shown that the identified systems which produce magnetic force to input duty cycle for various excitation signals predict the static and dynamic performance very well near the operating point and in experiment conducted to confirm the validity of identification theory for PWM solenoid valve, we find that there is a good agreement between the experimental data and simulation result. Hence, this model can be utilized in the development of pressure control system with PWM solenoid valve.

Power flow characteristics of a hydro-mechanical transmission system(HMT) are investigated for tracked vehicle in steering. A HMT consisting of two hydrostatic pump motors(HST), several planetary gear trains and steer differential gear is considered. In order to obtain the direction and magnitude of the power flow of the HMT, network theory for the general power transmission is used. Network model for the HMT in steering is developed, which consists of shafts, nodes and transmission elements such as clutch, gear, etc. Power flow analysis procedure consists of two stages : (1) traction force analysis in steering, (2) power flow analysis in HMT. Torque and speed of every transmission element of the HMT is determined from the network analysis. Also, efficiency, mechanical and hydraulic power loss including HST, are obtained. In addition, the regenerative power flow resulting from steering can be studied in graphic display. The power flow analysis program(PCSTEER) developed in this work can be used as a useful design tool for the tracked vehicle with HMT.

A loader used for uploading materials into truck is a kind of construction equipment. Mainly, a wheel loader is applied to construction work. Recently, an automatic transmission for the wheel loader is used to help drivers get the repetitive works done comfortably. It is composed of geartrain, clutch pack, hydraulic control system and TCU. Especially, a high-performance proportional control valve and its control algorithm is demanded to achieve the shift quality during a change of speed. In this paper, the commercial package program was used in order to justify model of the proportional control valve and simulate it. Steady-state and dynamic characteristics of PCV were analyzed to classify attractive forces and hydraulic control characteristics. This model also was verified the validity compared to the experimental result. Using the developed model, performances of PCV were predicted as studying design parameters.

In general, a valve body of the automatic transmission(AT) is controlled by the clutch, the brake and lubricating oil flow in a hydraulic system and lubricant flow for each valve can be adjusted independently. To increase the lifetime of AT, the lubrication flow rate in a valve body for a 6 speed AT based parallel hybrid electric vehicle must be provided with proper oil distribution and control. In this study, we carried out several experiments without the inner parts of AT and with a AT assembly. The variation of the flow rate on oil temperature and pressure between an oil supply port and the outlets of the lubrication port was evaluated and analyzed. In the case of AT without the inner parts, it was evident that as the oil required for an operation of the clutch and brake was discharged from the outlet port, the flow rate from each lubrication port is decreased. However, the flow rate of the AT assembly was slightly increased. In addition, the lubrication flow rate was increased with increasing the oil temperature, and also it was reduced with increasing the oil pressure. Details of the resulting data are discussed.

국내에서 사용되는 트랙터는 출력과 상관없이 쟁기 작업을 포함한 농작업, 운반작업 등이 주로 사용되는 편이나, 북미 또는 서유럽의 경우 소형 트랙터는 토목공사의 로더, 굴삭 작업 또는 잔디깍기 등의 농장 및 정원 관리용 등으로 주로 사용되며 쟁기 작업은 거의 하지 않는다. 이와 같은 목적으로 사용하는 트랙터는 견인력을 적게 요구하는 대신 잦은 변속 및 전후진의 방향 전환을 요구하므로, 기계식 트랙터로써는 많은 불편함을 느낄 수밖에 없다. HST 트랙터는 다양한 작업성을 만족시키는 동시에 조작성이 편리하다는 장점이 있다. (중략)

엔진오일 첨가제는 오일 전체의 성질에 영향을 주는 것과 윤활 부품의 표명 성질에 영향을 미치는 것으로 크게 구분할 수 있다. 표면 작용용 첨가제 들의 상호작용은 기대이하의 성능을 발휘하는 경우가 있고 그 원인은 첨가제의 상호작용에 의한 것으로 볼 수 있으므로 가능한 범위내에서 실험적으로 살펴보기로 한다. 현대자동차의 엔진과 변속기에 요구되는 윤활유 성능 특성을 만족시키기 위해서는 기유에 요구되는 적당한 성능을 발휘하기 위한 특수한 첨가제를 넣어주어야만 한다. 그러나 첨가제를 개발하는 과정에서 한가지 첨가제의 특성은 그 자체를 실험한 경우와 매우 상이한 결과가 완전히 혼합된 오일에서 나타남을 경험하게 된다. 이것은 첨가제들 자체의 상호작용에 의한 원인으로 암시되지만 이들에 관련된 연구나 지식은 상당히 제한되어 있다. 따라서 첨가제으 상호작용에 관한 실례를 찾아보고 관련자료를 검토해 보는 것은 의미있는 일이라 생각된다. 윤활오일 첨가제가 오일 자체의 성질에 영향을 주는 것으로 점도 시수향상제, 산화 방지제 같은 것이 있고 마찰 표면 특성에 영향을 미치는 내마모성 첨가제, 극압첨가제, 청정제, 분산제, 마찰 계수 감소제 등으로 크게 구분된다. 오일자체에 영향을 미치는 첨가제는 서로 별개로 작용하지만 그래도 상호 반응을 할 수 있다. 예를 들면 자유기 억제제와 과산화물 분해형식의 산화억제제의 혼합물은 산화억제 성능을 최대화 시켜준다.
