The invention discloses a variable-period downshift
process control method of a multi-gear wire-controlled automatic gearbox. According to the method, whether the downshift from the second gear to the first gear, the downshift from the third gear to the second gear or the downshift from the fourth gear to the third gear is needed or not is judged by an
electric control unit through detecting a D gear
switching signal, a vehicle speed
signal v of a vehicle speed sensor and an opening degree
signal Alpha of an accelerator pedal
position sensor, and the
electrification current control of an
electromagnetic clutch in each downshift process is carried out. By taking the downshift from the third gear to the second gear as an example, the
electrification current of a second gear
electromagnetic clutch is controlled by the
electric control unit according to a variable
control period function T(v) and the
electrification current function of the second gear
electromagnetic clutch: I<2b>(t) ={I2, t is greater than or equal to 0 but is smaller than or equal to T<
delta>; kI2+I2(1-k)(t-T<
delta>) / (T<32>-T<
delta>), t is greater than or equal to T<delta> but is smaller than or equal to T<32>}, meanwhile, the electrification current of a third gear electromagnetic
clutch is controlled according to the electrification
current function of the third gear electromagnetic
clutch: I<3b>(t)={I3, t is greater than or equal to 0 but is smaller than or equal to IT<delta>; 0, t is greater than or equal to IT<delta> but is smaller than or equal to T<32>}, and the downshift
process control of the wire-controlled automatic gearbox is realized. The downshift
process control method has the advantages that the input power interrupt of an engine in the downshift process can be avoided, in addition, the gear shifting
impact can be avoided, and the stable downshift of the wire-controlled automatic gearbox is realized.
