ABSTRACT:
A hydraulic control system for a four-wheel drive transfer mechanism for vehicles, including an automatic transmission, a transfer mechanism having a two-wheel drive direct-coupling gear (H.sub.2), a four-wheel drive direct-coupling gear (H.sub.4) and a reduced-speed four-wheel drive gear (L.sub.4) and a hydraulic control circuit for controlling the transmission and the transfer mechanism. The transfer mechanism includes a reduction gear mechanism, a first output shaft, a second output shaft connected to the first output shaft by means of a linkage, a four-wheel drive clutch for detachably connecting or disconnecting the first and second output shafts, direct-coupling clutch for connecting or disconnecting the input shaft of the reduction gear mechanism and the first output shaft and a reduced-speed drive brake for shifting the reduction gear mechanism into the reduced-speed range. The hydraulic control circuit includes a down-shift timing valve adapted to be operated by the line pressure of the hydraulic control circuit to distribute the pressurized fluid to the respective servomotors of the direct-coupling clutch and the reduced-speed drive brake so as to make the reduced-speed drive brake start engaging before the direct-coupling clutch is disengaged when the line pressure is lower than a predetermined level and to engage the reduced-speed drive brake after the direct-coupling clutch has been disengaged when the line pressure is higher than the predetermined level.
