Patent EP-1069346-A2 (EP)
Inventor: EGUCHI TAKAHIRO
IPC: B60W10/101
Filed: 2000-07-11
Abstract: A vehicular transmission comprises an engine E, a continuously
variable transmission CVT and a starting clutch 5. The driving force from the
engine E is transmitted through the continuously variable transmission CVT
with a speed change to a countershaft 2, and the starting clutch 5 is used to
transmit this driving force from the countershaft 2 to wheels of a vehicle. The
continuously variable transmission CVT is hydraulically controlled by a control
valve CV which receives control signals through a line 35 from an electrical
control unit ECU. After the vehicle has decelerated and stopped, and after the
engine E has stopped by an idling elimination control, the electrical current that
controls the control valve CV is adjusted almost to zero.

Abstract: A battery jar for a battery cell having a plurality of plate support
bridges, preferably chevron shaped, is presented. The bridges are disposed on
a bottom surface of the battery jar. The bridges include a pair of legs attached
at an angle such that each leg provides structural support for each other
when supporting the plates of the battery cell. Advantageously, the
invention provides good resistance to columnar buckling from impact loads
of the plates without requiring that the bridges be made thick relative to prior
art bridges. Therefore, migration of the residue from the plates (mud) is
enhanced. Also, the invention reduces the indentation depth required over
the prior art by providing dual bearing surfaces for the plates.
