DESCRIPTION
•
Based on a driver request for lock mode, the
system will supply a fixed torque to the ITCC (Intelligent Torgue
Controlled Couplings) clutch.
•
When the vehicle exceeds 30KPH the system
will begin to disable lock mode by ramping down the ITCC clutch
torque. When the vehicle exceeds 40 KPH the ITCC clutch is reduced
to its minimum torque value. Lock mode is re-enabled following the
same speed-to-torque map.
•
Lock mode is activated based on part
number.
•
Lock mode will override all other system
requests except for during an ABS event. During an ABS event the
ITCC clutch is turned off.
•
If there is a speed sensor signal fault, the
speeds are no longer considered reliable and lock mode will be
disabled.
POWER FLOW MECHANISM
•
Normal driving situation: 2WD base
driving
•
4WD driving in driving situations (rapid
activation, cornering etc.)
1.
Input the information from each sensor in
vehicle
A.
Input torque (Throttle position
sensor)
B.
Vehicle speed and different wheel
speed front & rear (Wheel speed
sensor)
C.
Braking situation (Brake signal and
ABS
signal)
2.
Distributed the required driving force after
4WD ECU operates.
3.
ECU (Electric Control Unit) operates the
primary clutch.
4.
Control the cam's opening gap by operation
of primary clutch.
5.
Control the slip of inner & outer
plate.
Control variably the driving force
distribution to optimize front & rear driving
force.
