Abstract

A transmission control method for a belt type mild hybrid vehicle includes collecting, by an integrated control unit, shifting information, setting, by the integrated control unit, a target torque of a motor generator in accordance with the shifting information, and controlling, by a motor control unit, the motor generator. In addition, a transmission control apparatus for a belt type mild hybrid vehicle which performs the transmission control method includes a motor generator that is interworked with an engine and a belt, an integrated control unit that collects shifting information and sets a target torque of the motor generator in accordance with the shifting information, and a motor control unit that controls the motor generator in accordance with the target torque set by the integrated control unit.

Claims (31)

1. A transmission control method for a belt type mild hybrid vehicle, comprising:

collecting, by an integrated control unit, shifting information; wherein the collecting of the shifting information includes receiving target shifting stage number information and current stage number information from a transmission control unit;

setting, by the integrated control unit, a target torque of a motor generator in accordance with the shifting information;

determining whether shifting of the vehicle is being performed, based on the shifting information; and

controlling, by a motor control unit, the motor generator,

wherein the controlling of the motor generator comprises:

controlling, by the motor control unit, the motor generator in accordance with the set target torque when it is determined that the shifting of the vehicle is not being performed;

determining whether a driving shaft of the vehicle is being driven when it is determined that the shifting of the vehicle is being performed; and

re-setting a target torque upper limit value of the motor generator as a negative number when it is determined that the driving shaft of the vehicle is being driven.

2. The transmission control method of claim 1 , wherein the controlling of the motor generator further comprises:

determining whether regenerative braking of the vehicle is being performed when it is determined that the driving shaft of the vehicle is not being driven.

3. The transmission control method of claim 2 , wherein the controlling of the motor generator further comprises:

re-setting a target torque lower limit value of the motor generator as a positive number when it is determined that the regenerative braking of the vehicle is being performed.

4. The transmission control method of claim 2 , wherein the controlling of the motor generator further comprises:

when it is determined that the regenerative braking of the vehicle is not performed, the controlling of the motor generator includes controlling, by the motor control unit, the motor generator in accordance with a re-set target torque.

5. The transmission control method of claim 1 , wherein the collecting of the shifting information includes receiving drive request torque information and regeneration request torque information from an engine control unit.

6. A transmission control apparatus for a belt type mild hybrid vehicle, comprising:

a motor generator that is interworked with an engine and a belt;

an integrated control unit that collects shifting information and sets a target torque of the motor generator in accordance with the shifting information;

a transmission control unit for delivering target shifting stage number information and current stage number information to the integrated control unit; and

a motor control unit that controls the motor generator in accordance with the target torque set by the integrated control unit,

wherein the integrated control unit determines whether shifting of the vehicle is being performed, based on the shifting information,

wherein the motor control unit controls the motor generator in accordance with the target torque set by the integrated control unit when the integrated control unit determines that the shifting is not being performed,

wherein the integrated control unit determines whether a driving shaft of the vehicle is being driven when the integrated control unit determines that the shifting is being performed, and

wherein the integrated control unit sets a target torque upper limit of the motor generator as a negative number when the integrated control unit determines that the driving shaft of the vehicle is being driven.

7. The transmission control apparatus of claim 6 , further comprising:

an engine control unit that delivers drive request torque information and regeneration request torque information to the integrated control unit.

8. The transmission control apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the integrated control unit is further configured to:

determine whether a regenerative braking of the vehicle is performed when the integrated control unit determines that the driving shaft of the vehicle is not being driven.

9. The transmission control apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the integrated control unit is further configured to:

re-set a target torque lower limit value of the motor generator as a positive number when the integrated control unit determines that the regenerative braking of the vehicle is being performed.
