An improved adaptive line pressure control which detects the occurrence of run-through and overrides the normal adaptive pressure control in response to a detected run-through condition so that the line pressure during subsequent shifting is increased instead of decreased. A run-through condition is detected by periodically sampling the transmission speed ratio in the course of the inertia phase of an upshift from a lower speed ratio to an upper speed ratio, and determining the average ratio for the upshift. If the average ratio is within a reference amount of the normal value (ratio midpoint) the adaptive control is allowed to update the adaptive pressure value in relation to the …

Why it's free to use
- Filed February 17, 1993 and granted February 18, 1997. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended February 17, 2013.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by February 17, 2015.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
