Problems solved by technology

Therefore, regardless of any modifications made to the pump and transmission system, the hydraulic demand will rise before the pump can supply the required flow, thereby causing an undesired delay in filling the clutch
This can affect fuel economy and shift quality

Abstract

The present disclosure provides a hydraulic system of a transmission having a controller and a variable displacement pump. The pump includes an inlet and outlet and is adapted to be driven by a torque-generating mechanism. The system also includes a lube circuit fluidly coupled to the pump. A lube regulator valve is disposed in the lube circuit, such that the lube regulator valve is configured to move between at least a regulated position and an unregulated position. The regulated position corresponds to a regulated pressure in the lube circuit. A pressure switch is fluidly coupled to the lube regulator valve and configured to move between a first position and a second position, where the switch is disposed in electrical communication with the controller. A solenoid is disposed in electrical communication with the controller and is controllably coupled to the pump to alter the displacement of the pump.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a transmission control system, and in particular, to a system and method for controlling pump performance in a transmission. Background technique [0002] In conventional power machines, prime movers can operate at different speeds and produce different levels of power that are transmitted to the transmission. In one instance, the prime mover may be an engine. In turn, the transmission can transmit torque to a drive train or final drive assembly that can be mounted directly to the wheels or tracks of the power machine. The transmission can include an internal pump that can be rotationally driven by the prime mover, and based on the different speeds of the prime mover, the pump can produce different levels of fluid flow and pressure. In some cases, there is only one internal pump in the transmission, which provides fluid flow to the transmission's main pressure circuit and lube oil circuit. [0003] Conventional hydra...
