ABSTRACT:
A shift control system for a material handling implement including a transmission having a plurality of selectively electrically-operated hydraulic clutches is disclosed. The system includes a manually positionable gear selector which provides electrical signals respectively corresponding to actuation of the transmission's hydraulic clutches. Notably, the system includes acceleration sensing means arranged to sense acceleration of the implement along its longitudinal axis, with the acceleration sensing means operatively connected with the electrical controls which interface the gear selector and the electro-hydraulic valves which operate the hydraulic clutches. By this system, acceleration on the implement, either negative or positive, created during upshifting of the transmission is monitored, and the sequential operation of the hydraulic clutches for the next-requested shift automatically adjusted responsively to the sensed acceleration for facilitating smooth shifting of the transmission.
