Abstract:
A hydraulic control system for a continuously variable transmission comprising:a pressure regulator including a primary regulator valve for regulating hydraulic pressure supplied from an oil pump, a first solenoid valve, a secondary regulator valve, and a solenoid supply valve; a shift controller including a shift ratio control valve, and a second solenoid valve controlling the shift ratio control valve; a forward/reverse controller including a pressure control valve, a third solenoid valve controlling the pressure control valve, a manual valve, and first and second friction elements acting respectively as forward and reverse operational elements; a torque converter operation controller including a torque converter feed valve receiving hydraulic pressure from the pressure regulator, a lock-up clutch control valve, and a fourth solenoid valve controlling the lock-up clutch control valve; and a bypass line formed between the pressure control valve and an accumulator, and a check valve provided in the bypass line, the check valve being able to block the flow of hydraulic pressure through the bypass line, wherein the pressure control valve and the manual valve are connected to the accumulator.
