Clutch and torque converter control for a continuously variable transmission
A hydraulic control system with clutch and torque converter control for a CVT includes a pressure regulator subsystem, a cooler subsystem, a manual valve assembly, and a torque converter control valve assembly connected to the torque converter clutch (TCC) and the cooler subsystem. A boost valve assembly is connected to the pressure regulator subsystem, the manual valve assembly, and the torque converter clutch control valve assembly. A clutch control solenoid is configured to move the boost valve to the boost position and the control valve to the release position and to control a pressure of the hydraulic fluid provided to the manual valve assembly. A TCC control solenoid is configured to move the boost valve to the boost position and to control a pressure of the hydraulic fluid provided to the torque converter control valve assembly.
