Patent ID: 10047858

Abstract:
A control device for a continuously variable transmission performs kick-down control for executing downshift if kick-down conditions are satisfied. The device includes an upshift determining unit, an upshift controller, a second-time kick-down determining unit, a second-time kick-down controller, and a second-time kick-down upshift conditions setting unit. The upshift determining unit determines whether upshift conditions are satisfied during kick-down control. The upshift controller sets an upshift amount and executes upshift if the upshift conditions are satisfied. The second-time kick-down determining unit determines whether second-time kick-down conditions are satisfied during kick-down control. The second-time kick-down controller sets a second-time kick-down downshift amount and executes downshift if the second-time kick-down conditions are satisfied. The second-time kick-down upshift conditions setting unit sets second-time kick-down upshift conditions if the second-time kick-down conditions are satisfied. If the second-time kick-down conditions are satisfied, the upshift determining unit performs determination using the second-time kick-down upshift conditions.
