Abstract
A control device provided with a first map capable of performing coast down control of altering a transmission ratio of a continuously variable transmission at a time of deceleration of a vehicle has a second map which is set by making a lock-up release vehicle speed for releasing a lock-up clutch and an engine rotation frequency correspond to each other, wherein, when cost down control is performed, the second map is used to set a lock-up release vehicle speed for releasing the lock-up clutch.
Claims2
A control device of a vehicle power transmission mechanism connected to an internal combustion engine in which fuel cut and recovery is performed at a time of deceleration of a vehicle, the vehicle power transmission mechanism including a continuously variable transmission and a hydraulic power transmission unit with lock-up clutch, the control device of the vehicle power transmission mechanism being provided with a first map by which lock-up control of controlling engagement or release of the lock-up clutch is performed at a time of satisfaction of a predetermined condition and by which coast down control of altering a transmission ratio of the continuously variable transmission at a time of deceleration of the vehicle can be performed, the control device of the vehicle power transmission mechanism comprising:
- a second map which is set by making a lock-up release vehicle speed at which the lock-up clutch is released and an engine rotation frequency correspond to each other, wherein
- when coast down control is performed, said second map is used to set a lock-up release vehicle speed at which the lock-up clutch is released.
