A control device for an automatic transmission is provided, which includes a vehicle-propelling friction engagement element configured to be engaged when a vehicle starts traveling, an other friction engagement element, a vehicle-propelling friction engagement element temperature detector configured to detect a temperature of the vehicle-propelling friction engagement element, an other friction engagement element temperature detector configured to detect a temperature of the other friction engagement element, and a processor configured to execute lubricant supply control logic to control supply of lubricant to the vehicle-propelling friction engagement element and the other friction engagement element. The lubricant supply control logic switches the supply amount of lubricant to the vehicle-propelling friction engagement element according to the temperature of the vehicle-propelling friction engagement element, and switches the supply amount of lubricant to the other friction engagement element according to the temperature of the other friction engagement element.

Control device for automatic transmission

A control device for an automatic transmission is provided, which includes a vehicle-propelling friction engagement element configured to be engaged when a vehicle starts traveling, an other friction engagement element, a vehicle-propelling friction engagement element temperature detector configured to detect a temperature of the vehicle-propelling friction engagement element, an input speed detector configured to detect an input speed of the automatic transmission, and a processor configured to execute lubricant supply control logic to control supply of lubricant to the vehicle-propelling friction engagement element and the other friction engagement element. The lubricant supply control logic switches the supply amount of lubricant to the vehicle-propelling friction engagement element according to the temperature of the vehicle-propelling friction engagement element, and switches the supply amount of lubricant to the other friction engagement element according to the input speed.

A control device for an automatic transmission is provided, which includes a friction engagement element, and a processor configured to execute gear change control logic configured to control a gear change operation by supplying and discharging hydraulic fluid for forming a gear stage to/from the friction engagement element, and lubricant supply control logic configured to control to switching operation of a supply amount of lubricant to the friction engagement element according to an operating state of a vehicle. The processor controls the gear change operation and the switching operation to not overlap with one another.
