Title: Control system for automatic transmission
Inventor: SAUER HANS-JUERGEN DIPL ING
IPC: F16H63/30
Filed: 1997-08-18
Abstract: An automatic transmission has a main clutch (14) between the engine (10) and the transmission and controlled by an electronic control system to provide a controlled amount of slip during the gearchange process.
