Patent ID: 8292771

Claim:
A hydraulic control apparatus of an automatic transmission including a first hydraulic servo of a first frictional engagement element supplied with oil in a reverse range and a forward range, and a second hydraulic servo of a second frictional engagement element supplied with oil in the reverse range and a neutral range, comprising: a manual valve having an input port into which a line pressure is input and an output port from which the input line pressure is output as a reverse range pressure; a linear solenoid which adjusts the line pressure and outputs it as a hydraulic oil pressure; a first switching portion which outputs the hydraulic oil pressure, supplied from the linear solenoid, to the first hydraulic servo and second hydraulic servo by switching between the two; a reverse range pressure oil passage connected to the output port; a second switching portion which supplies the hydraulic oil pressure or reverse range pressure, by switching between the two, to the second hydraulic servo; a discharge delay oil passage which discharges an oil pressure via a delay portion which delays an oil pressure output; and a third switching portion which, at the same time as the reverse range pressure oil passage and discharge delay oil passage are connected, causes the reverse range pressure oil passage and discharge delay oil passage, by switching between the two, to communicate with the second hydraulic servo, wherein the third switching portion causes the second hydraulic servo and discharge delay oil passage to communicate when the manual valve is switched to the neutral range, and causes the second hydraulic servo and reverse range pressure passage to communicate when the manual valve is switched to the forward range or reverse range.
