Patent ID: 11994208

Abstract:
A method for calibrating an actuation of a converter lock-up clutch of a hydrodynamic torque converter having a pump wheel and a turbine wheel connected to a power-split transmission. The transmission has at least two clutches each connected to a respective power-split shaft assembly and each configured be actuated separately to close and open in order to apply a clutch torque to the turbine wheel so that a rotation speed difference between the pump wheel and the turbine wheel changes. The method includes opening the converter lock-up clutch and the at least two clutches each connected to a respective power-split shaft assembly of the transmission, rotating the pump wheel with a specified rotation speed, and applying a clutch torque to the turbine wheel as a function of an actual rotation speed difference. Clutches connected to a different respective power-split shaft assembly of the transmission are actuated in the closing direction.
