Abstract

A method for controlling a slip of a clutch device of a gearbox of a vehicle includes measuring at least one rotational speed value on a gearbox shaft of the gearbox; determining an active gearbox shaft; determining the angular acceleration on the active gearbox shaft determined, on the basis of the at least one measured rotational speed value; producing a rattling characteristic value on the basis of the angular acceleration determined over at least one time interval; and controlling the slip of the clutch device on the basis of a comparison of the rattling characteristic value produced with at least one rattling threshold value.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method for controlling a slip of a clutch device of a gearbox of a vehicle, the method comprising:
measuring at least one rotational speed value on a gearbox shaft of the gearbox;
determining an active gearbox shaft;
determining the angular acceleration on the active gearbox shaft on the basis of the at least one measured rotational speed value;
producing a rattling characteristic value on the basis of the angular acceleration determined over at least one time interval; and
controlling the slip of the clutch device on the basis of a comparison of the rattling characteristic value produced with at least one rattling threshold value.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein, for the determination of the active gearbox shaft, a detection of the engaged gear of the gearbox is carried out.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein, the method steps are carried out in real time.

4. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein, after the control of the slip, the method steps are carried out again for a directly following time interval.

5. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein, a rotational speed value is measured on all gearbox shafts and/or all output shafts, wherein an individual rattling characteristic value is produced on the basis of each rotational speed value and/or a common rattling characteristic value is produced on the basis of all the rotational speed values.

6. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein, during the comparison of the rattling characteristic value produced with the at least one rattling threshold value, the slip of the clutch device is raised if the rattling characteristic value lies above the at least one rattling threshold value, and/or the slip of the clutch device is reduced, an overpressure being established, if the rattling characteristic value lies below the at least one rattling threshold value.

7. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the comparison of the rattling threshold value produced for the control of the slip is carried out with at least one lower rattling threshold value and at least one upper rattling threshold value.

8. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the comparison of the rattling characteristic value produced with the at least one rattling threshold value results in a rattling difference, which is used in the control of the slip of the clutch device in a quantitative way.

9. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one further input condition is taken into account in the control of the slip.

10. A control device for the implementation of a method for controlling the slip of a gearbox of a vehicle, the control device comprising:
at least one sensor unit for configured to measure at least one rotational speed value on a gearbox shaft of the gearbox and for determining an active gearbox shaft, further having a determination unit for determining the angular acceleration on the active gearbox shaft on the basis of the at least one measured rotational speed value, and for producing a rattling characteristic value on the basis of the angular acceleration determined over at least one time interval; and
a control unit configured to control the slip of the clutch device on the basis of a comparison of the rattling characteristic value produced with at least one rattling threshold value.
