Liu Weixing, deputy general manager of Chongqing Bus Co., Ltd., spoke on the special road conditions in Chongqing, saying that due to the steep and steep roads, high mountains, and large bends in Chongqing, some of the line equipment was extremely depleted. When the company used a manual gearbox, it was not only difficult to control, but also had to be repaired every three or four months. The maintenance material and labor costs for each vehicle had to be more than a thousand yuan, and the maintenance cost was very high in one year. high.

“In 2000, our 12-meter double-decker bus had high clutch and transmission failures. On average, clutch and transmission failures occurred every month,” said GE Weifen, the director of the Nanjing Bus Company’s maintenance department. “To solve this problem, we will In the 12-meter three-bridge double-decker car, three were refitted, fitted with an Allison transmission, and then an 11-meter-two car was refitted. By 2002, we found that this attempt was very effective. For 62 new double-decked vehicles, the Allison transmission was fitted as standard and all Allison gearboxes were installed, completely solving the problem of double-decker clutches and transmissions being easily damaged.”

“We believe that for high-powered, high-capacity vehicles, especially for double-decker vehicles, they should be equipped with automatic transmissions to improve safety and reduce labor and maintenance intensity. Safety is the first priority for public transport operations. It is the efficient operation of the vehicle and less maintenance time. Allison products can help us in all three aspects.” Ge Weifen said.

Fuel economy is comparable to manual

Chen Huaijun, head of technology supply from Beijing Xianglong Bus Company, stated in the exchange that due to the full communication with Allison, the speed ratio of the vehicle has been adjusted several times for the characteristics of different lines. After adjustment, it has been basically eliminated. Fuel concerns. “Using air conditioners in summer is more. We have balanced the first three quarters of this year and the average fuel consumption has reached 39.8, which is almost the same as traditional buses. It is not as fuel-consuming as many drivers worry about. In respect of fuel economy, To achieve our desired results."

How does Allison make automatic transmission vehicles approach the standard of manual transmission? Chen Yan introduced that in addition to timely communication and adjustment of the gearbox performance with the customer, the Allison transmission has a special function - LBSS (Load Based). Shifting Schedule). This function is a load-based shift program technology. It automatically senses the load of the vehicle through the computer, determines the shifting program of the vehicle based on the load, starts the dynamic shifting mode when the power is needed, and requires fuel economy. When starting the economic shift mode.

This technical feature has already been noticed by the users. Chen Yong, the technical section chief of the Kunming Public Transport Company, said that when the manual gear is used, the driver uses the low speed to save fuel, but produces excessive emissions. Allison transmission automatically senses the vehicle load (LBSS technology) through the computer, determines the vehicle's shift program based on the load, and starts the economy or power shift mode as required, solving the problem of manual shifting or timely overhaul. High emissions caused by the problem.
