Abstract
A hydraulic arrangement for a vehicle transmission includes a hydraulic pump for providing a system pressure for a first hydraulic system circuit and a lubrication pressure for a second hydraulic lubrication circuit. The arrangement also includes a control valve connected between a pump outlet of the pump and the two hydraulic circuits and has two different switching positions. The control valve, depending on its switching position, acts as a hydraulic connection between the pump and the system circuit or between the pump and the lubrication circuit.

A hydraulic arrangement for a vehicle transmission, comprising:
- a hydraulic pump for providing a system pressure for a first hydraulic system circuit and a lubrication pressure for a second hydraulic lubrication circuit;
- a control valve connected between a pump outlet of the pump and the two hydraulic circuits and having two different switching positions;
- and
- a holding valve unit including a mechanical locking mechanism for releasably locking the control valve in the second switching position;
- wherein the control valve, depending on its switching position, acts as a hydraulic connection between the pump and the system circuit or between the pump and the lubrication circuit.
