Abstract:
A control apparatus of an automated manual transmission having an input shaft provided with a plurality of drive gears, an output shaft provided with a plurality of driven gears engaged with the drive gears, and actuators for switching a transmission gear train to transmit a power from the input shaft to the output shaft, said actuator being hydraulically driven, comprising:a hydraulic pressure generating source for generating hydraulic pressure of working fluid; a control valve for regulating the hydraulic pressure of working fluid for supplying to said actuators; pressure storing means for saving the working fluid supplied from said hydraulic pressure generating source and storing pressure energy, said pressure storing means being located between said control valve and said hydraulic pressure generating source; and transmission control means for switching said transmission gear train to a predetermined gear range with the pressure energy stored in said pressure storing means when a trouble of a hydraulic pressure system for supplying the working fluid occurs.
