  • The continuously variable transmission (C.V.T.) has been introduced for many years, however, the application of C.V.T. system has been used rather restrictively because of the problems such as reliability, durability, efficiency and, controllability. In this paper, some of the research trends about the control algorithms and the system design method involving C.V.T. is introduced. An engine is assumed in operation along the ideal operating line and it is also considered to be controlled independently to the C.V.T. system. The control simulation has been carried out to confirm it and also the operation performance of the system is investigated.

  • We designed the compound CVT (Continuously Variable Transmissions) by combining power circulation mode CVT and power split mode CVT, which have been proposed for connecting 2K-H I differential gear to the V- belt type CVU (Continuously Variable Unit), as an input coupled type. With the designed compound CVT, we carried out theoretical analysis and performance experiments. We proved that the compound CVT had a better performance than either of the power circulation mode or power split mode.

  • In order for small electric vehicles to drive on hilly roads in Korea, methods to improve the climbing ability and power performance of vehicles should be taken. In order to improve the power performance of small electric vehicles, the performance of motors mounted on electric vehicles should be improved. However, if the performance of the motor is improved to improve the power performance of the electric vehicle, it is possible to lower the price competitiveness accordingly. In addition, the power consumption of the battery is rapidly increased to drive the high-performance motor, so in order to introduce the small electric vehicle into the domestic market, various problems must be overcome. In order to commercialize small electric vehicles that do not emit harmful exhaust gases to the human body in the hilly domestic terrain, it is effective to introduce a separate continuously variable transmission system that can improve the climbing ability and power transmission ability. In this study, we propose a proprietary model of continuously variable transmissions that can be applied to small electric vehicles. The proposed continuously variable transmission is equipped with a spring in the driving pulley and the driven pulley, and has the advantage of performing a shift that increases torque in a situation where the vehicle needs to increase torque when driving on a hill. In addition, the basic design for commercialization of the proposed continuously variable transmission was carried out, and the prototype manufactured and attached to the body of a small electric vehicle.

  • In this study, a novel hybrid vehicle is proposed. The vehicle has a flywheel-engine hybrid system. Flywheels are more effective as energy charge systems than electric batteries in a respect of output power density. However, transmissions to effectively drive flywheels are very complex systems such as CVTs (Continuously Variable Transmissions). In the proposed hybrid vehicle, Constant Pressure System is employed, which is hydraulic power transmission. Using Constant Pressure Systems, hydraulic CVTs are easily realized with variable displacement pumps/motors. In this paper, firstly, the proposed flywheel hybrid vehicle making use of Constant Pressure System is described. Secondly, fuel consumption characteristics of the flywheel hybrid vehicle are experimentally examined with the stationary test facility, which employs a flywheel as a load emulating vehicle inertia. Finally, the experimental results and discussions are described. Fuel consumption of 26km/L is expected for 10 mode driving schedule with vehicle mass of 1500kg.

  • The mechanics, electronics and manufacturing technology have been developed rapidly. Nowadays vehicle stability becomes more and more important then ABS (Anti-lo7k Brake System), ASR (Anti-Slip Regulator), TCS, (Traction Control System), ESP (Electronic Stability Program), and VDC (Vehicle Dynamic Control) which actively control the vehicle stability actively has been improved. In this study, instead of automatic transmission, CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) is used because of the continuously gear ratio changes. It can effectively transfer the torque from engine to tire more than other gear transmission. The modeling is simplified assuming that there are no resistance parameters.

  • In order to operate SI(Spark Ignition) engine at the optimal fuel efficiency, it is necessary to use continuously variable transmission(CVT) which has more excellent fuel consumption property than transmissions of gear box types commonly used. This study introduces new type of nonlinear control approach to control precisely CVT including nonlinear characteristics. The nonlinear controller is basically composed of input-state feedback linearization, which can cancel the nonlinearities included in CVT on specific controllable area, and sliding-mode control. In this paper, good control performance of contrtol system with the nonlinear controller is confirmed with computer simulations.

  • Vehicle clutch measurement for disc cushion variation was developed for the production of high quality Dual clutch transmissions. The developed device is composed of load cells for load measurement and LVDT for measuring the distance variation measurement in cushion variation. The servo motor-driven electric press for flexible loads that was developed was controlled by a PC-based HMI system, LabVIEW, and the device was able to continuously record real time measurement data with the accuracies of ${\pm}0.1\;kgf$ load and ${\pm}5{\mu}m$ cushion amount, which is far above the requirements of commercial vehicle standards.

  • This article describes the design of a hydraulic system for a power split type continuously variable transmission (CVT). The CVT considered here, is composed of planetary gears, clutches, and a torque converter which is mainly used for the realization of CVT function. Similar to automatic transmissions, the hydraulic system of CVT is designed for supplying hydraulic flows and pressures to each component of CVT, in order to activate the clutch engagements and torque converter operation, and to cool the drivetrain. By using the mathematical models of drivetrain, a simulation program was developed to investigate the power performance of CVT equipped vehicle and the operating conditions of each component of CVT. And the design parameters of the hydraulic system and clutches were calculated using the operating conditions and power requirements which obtained from the simulation results. Finally the hydraulic circuit design of prototyped valve body is presented based on the numerical results of this analysis.
