Abstract:
There is provided an automatic transmission capable to preventing an output of a driving source in a neutral range from being transmitted to wheels without increasing the number of control valves which could fail. An automatic transmission includes a first brake, a third clutch, a third brake, a transmission control device configured to control the first brake, the third clutch, and the third brake, and a hydraulic sensor and a hydraulic switch configured to determine whether the first brake is under control of the transmission control device. When the hydraulic sensor and the hydraulic switch detect that the first brake is in an engaged state contrary to control of the transmission control device in a non-traveling range, the transmission control device switches the third clutch and the third brake to the engaged state.

Claim (Index 8):
The automatic transmission according to  claim 5 , comprising\n a housing; four planetary gear mechanisms comprising first to fourth planetary gear mechanisms which are disposed inside the housing and each include three elements comprising a sun gear, a carrier, and a ring gear; and a plurality of engagement mechanisms, wherein the three elements of the third planetary gear mechanism are a first element, a second element, and a third element in an arrangement order at intervals corresponding to a gear ratio in a collinear diagram that is able to express a relative rotation speed ratio by a straight line, the three elements of the fourth planetary gear mechanism are a fourth element, a fifth element, and a sixth element in an arrangement order at intervals corresponding to a gear ratio in a collinear diagram, the three elements of the first planetary gear mechanism are a seventh element, an eighth element, and a ninth element in an arrangement order at intervals corresponding to a gear ratio in a collinear diagram, the three elements of the second planetary gear mechanism are a tenth element, an eleventh element, and a twelfth element in an arrangement order at intervals corresponding to a gear ratio in a collinear diagram, the first element is connected to the input unit, the tenth element is connected to the output unit, the second element, the fifth element, and the ninth element are connected to form a first connected body, the third element and the twelfth element are connected to form a second connected body, and the eighth element and the eleventh element are connected to form a third connected body, the engagement mechanism includes three clutches comprising first to third clutches, three brakes comprising first to third brakes, and a two-way clutch, the first clutch is switchable between a connected state in which the first element and the third connected body are connected and an open state in which the connection is disconnected, the second clutch is switchable between a connected state in which the sixth element and the second connected body are connected and an open state in which the connection is disconnected, the third clutch is switchable between a connected state in which the first element and the fourth element are connected and an open state in which the connection is disconnected, the first brake is switchable between a fixed state in which the seventh element is fixed to the housing and an open state in which the fixed state is released, the second brake is switchable between a fixed state in which the sixth element is fixed to the housing and an open state in which the fixed state is released, the third brake is switchable between a fixed state in which the fourth element is fixed to the housing and an open state in which the fixed state is released, the two-way clutch is switchable between a reverse rotation prevention state in which forward rotation of the third connected body is allowed and reverse rotation is prevented and a fixed state in which rotation of the third connected body is prevented, the first engagement mechanism is the first brake, the second engagement mechanism is the third clutch and the third brake, and the non-traveling range is a neutral range or a parking range.
