Regulated drivetrain for damping out vibrations
View Patent ↗The invention relates to a drivetrain having an automatic clutch.
1. A drivetrain comprising a drive unit, a transmission having at least one transmission input shaft and at least one transmission output shaft in operative connection with at least one driving wheel, there being provided between the at least one transmission input shaft and a drive shaft of the drive unit an automatically actuated friction clutch whose engagement and disengagement operations are controlled via a control device at least as a function of signals of a sensor device that detects a speed of the transmission input shaft and a speed of the at least one drive wheel, vibrations occurring in a torque transmission via frictional surfaces of the friction clutch being damped, wherein a variable VS, formed from the speed n(R) of a transmission output section and the speed n(G) of the transmission input shaft, functions as a control parameter for controlling the engagement and disengagement operations to dampen the vibrations occurring in the friction clutch, wherein a damping of the vibrations is performed if an average amplitude of the vibrations has a predetermined limit value.
