Abstract: The present specification discloses a method
and apparatus for assembling a clutch plate including
forming arcuate segments (28) from a friction material
sheet, applying the arcuate segments (28) to a ring
(12) in a fixed location with a temporary adherent,
preferably to define intermediate spaces (32) between
the arcuate segments (28), and bonding the arcuate
segments (28) to the annular ring surface (14,16) to
form an automatic transmission clutch plate.
Preferably, a set (56,62) of multiple arcuate segments
(28) with independent edge boundaries (30) are applied
in a single workstation (40), and one or more sets
(56,62) may be applied to each annular surface (14,16)
by appropriately indexing the ring (12) with respect to
the application equipment. Preferably, the arcuate
segments (28) are formed by stamping the segments (28)
from sheets (44,54), the cuttings arranged at closely
spaced positions on the sheet to reduce friction
material waste. Preferably, the stamping die displaced
the cut arcuate segment (28) to its fixed location on
the annular ring (12). The preferred embodiment
includes a lined clutch plate (10) in which spaces (32)
between adjacent arcuate segments (28) of friction
material form lubrication grooves from the radially
inner edge (18) to the radially outer edge (20) of the
clutch plate ring (12).

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a process for metallization of
composite and non-composite materials. In particular, the present invention
relates to a process for film transfer metallization in which a carrier film (10),
preferably comprised of a polymeric material, is coated with a metal layer (16) on
one side, deposited onto a substrate (18) such that the metal layer is not in contact
with the substrate, transferred directly to a component material, and then cured
to consolidate and transfer the metal layer to the component material. The
cured carrier film (10) may be removed or stripped from the cured component
material as desired. The component material may be a composite material or a
non-composite material. With non-composite components, the process
includes the step of applying an adhesive layer to the metallized carrier film.
Embodiments of the process of the present invention may include the use of a
pressure sensitive adhesive, and the steps of embossing or etching the carrier
film with patterns, such as holographic patterns, before metallizing the carrier
film.

Abstract: A controller for a continuously variable transmission of a vehicle sets a command
speed ratio so that a real speed ratio approaches a target speed ratio which is set
according to running conditions including throttle opening. When an upshift is
performed, this controller determines, from the variation of throttle opening, whether
the upshift is due to a decrease in throttle opening or whether it is another type of
upshift. When it is determined that the upshift is due to throttle opening decrease,
a response rate of the command speed ratio relative to the target speed ratio
immediately after start of speed change is temporarily increased, and subsequently
slowly decreased.

Abstract: A semi-automated vehicle transmission (24) includes a method of returning
torque control to the driver of the vehicle. The transition from an initial
current torque value to a desired torque value is accomplished in two stages.
A first rate of change is utilized during a preselected time (ti) period or until the
current torque value corresponds to the desired torque value. In the event that
the desired torque value is not achieved during the preselected period of time,
then a second rate of change is implemented. The second rate of change
preferably is very aggressive relative to the first rate of change. The rate of
change of the current torque value is accomplished within a window of
available torque limits that progressively change with time.
