Agricultural Tractor

This study aims to develop and evaluate an automated manual transmission (AMT) for agricultural tractors with high efficiency and high convenience by using electric actuators. An AMT system to control manual-type shuttle gearboxes and transmissions for tractors is developed by adding a shuttle shifting actuator, a clutch actuator, and a control system to a conventional manual transmission (MT). The clutch actuator is designed using an electric motor and a reduction gear. The AMT control system is developed and experimental tests are conducted to evaluate the performance of the AMT. The results of the performance of the actuator position control demonstrate that the shuttle shifting actuator and clutch actuator are controlled appropriately, achieving a maximum overshoot of less than 5% and 0%, a settling time of less than 0.500 s and 1.50 s, and a steady-state error of less than 1% and 1%, respectively. The performance of the automatic forward and reverse control demonstrates a shift control time of less than 2.50 s and target revolutions per minute (RPM) reaching time of less than 3.00 s. Thus, AMT systems for tractors can be easily developed by applying shuttle shifting actuators, clutch actuators, and a control system to conventional manual transmissions.

This paper presents a motor position control algorithm for an automated manual transmission (AMT) of the agricultural tractor, based on modified linear quadratic tracking (LQT). In this paper, the modified LQT is derived from the conventional LQT by applying the Luenberger observer in order to design an output feedback controller. A dynamic model of the actuator is derived to represent characteristics of the worm geared DC motor and the proposed control algorithm is applied and tuned with the model. The proposed position control algorithm of the worm geared motor using the modified LQT can improve disturbance rejection performance without changing the hardware configuration of the AMT. The simulation results show the validity of the proposed control algorithm.

Smooth Transitions

Abstract This paper investigates the design of a new transmission system without a friction synchronizer for high-performance hybrid vehicles. Manual and automated manual transmission systems traditionally use friction synchronizers to facilitate smooth transitions during a gearshift, ensuring speed matching and proper engagement of the gears. Active position sensing technology for dogteeth is being developed, along with the potential of speed matching using electric motors, eliminating the need for the friction synchronizer. However, in removing these friction synchronizer components, significant shock could be introduced to the transmission system with speed or position errors during a shift. This paper proposes a solution through a gear system that utilizes a face mesh design, torsional springs, and alternating teeth height. A prototype of this design was created and successfully tested as a proof of concept for a transmission system, which has the potential to improve hybrid, automated manual transmission design.

Driver’S Intention

For a vehicle equipped with an automatic transmission, the shift control strategy should reflect the driver’s intention in the dynamic performance and the economy performance of the vehicle. However, the driver’s intention is difficult to identify and involve in the shift strategy because of the complexity of driving environments, the diversity of powertrain parameters and the randomness of the driver’s behaviour. Therefore, in this paper, by considering a vehicle equipped with an automated manual transmission as the study object, a novel multi-parameter coordinated shift control strategy is proposed on the basis of identification of the driver’s intention. First, in order to predict the intention of the driver more effectively, the relative opening degree of the accelerator is defined on the basis of the dynamic analysis. Then, the characteristics of the driver’s expected acceleration, which involve the influence of the driving environment, are proposed. They can be classified into five categories, namely stop, deceleration, keep, acceleration and urgent acceleration. Next, a fuzzy control system is designed to identify the driver’s acceleration characteristics in real time. This considers the vehicle speed, the rate of change in the opening degree of the accelerator and the relative opening degree of the accelerator as the inputs and the quantitative intention of the driver as the output. Finally, the novel multi-parameter coordinated shift control strategy is formulated on the basis of the vehicle speed, the opening degree of the accelerator and the quantitative intention of the driver. The designed shift strategy is compared with conventional methods using simulations and is verified by road tests. The results show that the shift control strategy can make the vehicle shift much more effective.

Fuzzy Control Algorithm

In this paper, a 2 stage continuously variable transmission (CVT) shift control algorithm is proposed for the 1–2 upshift of the planetary gear to achieve the shift quality. A fuzzy control algorithm is designed considering the relatively slower response characteristics of CVT. In order to evaluate the performance of the control algorithm, a 2 stage CVT vehicle simulator is developed including a dynamic model of the CVT powertrain. From the simulation results, it is found that CVT gear ratio changes faster in the inertia phase and remains constant after the inertia phase of the planetary gear shift, which provides the reduced torque variation by the proposed control algorithm.

Dry Clutch

The closed loop feedback control system of an Automated Manual Transmission (AMT) electro-pneumatic clutch actuator is used for intelligent real time condition monitoring, enhanced diagnostics and prognostic health management of the dry clutch system, by integrating with the existing gearbox prognostics observer. The real-time sensor data of the clutch actuator piston position is analyzed for monitoring the condition of the clutch system. Original parameters of the new clutch are stored in the Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-only Memory (EEPROM) of the AMT controller and the real-time data is used by the observer for assessing the degradation/wear of the frictional clutch parts. Also, clutch slip during torque transmission is monitored, using the engine speed and the gearbox input shaft speed from Controller Area Network (CAN). Condition monitoring of clutch system provides enhanced prognostic functionality for AMT system which ensures consistent clutch performance, gear shift quality and timely warning for recalibration, repair and/or replacement of the critical wear and tear parts. Also, systematic analysis of the monitored data provides an accurate diagnosis of a developing fault. Thus, with the advanced control systems in place for AMT, a closed loop feedback based condition monitoring system is modelled for improved diagnostics and prognostics of AMT clutch system.
