Control device of hybrid vehicle
In a case of engagement when a clutch K 0 disposed between an engine 12 and a motor generator MG is engaged during EV running while a release instruction for the clutch K 0 is output, drive of the engine 12 is changed such that a rotation speed N E of the engine 12 approaches a rotation speed N MG of the motor generator MG and, therefore, a drag torque of the engine 12 can be suppressed regardless of an engagement state of the clutch K 0 , and generation of longitudinal acceleration can be suppressed by reducing a slip time of the clutch K 0 . Therefore, a control device of a hybrid vehicle 10 can be provided that reduces a driver's uncomfortable feeling in a simplified manner in a case of wrong engagement of the clutch K 0.
1. A control device of a hybrid vehicle having a clutch in a power transmission path between an engine and a motor generator, the clutch controlling power transmission through the power transmission path depending on an engagement state, the control device interrupting the power transmission through the power transmission path by releasing the clutch during motor running, only the motor generator being used as a drive source for running in the motor running, wherein
in a case of engagement where the clutch is engaged during the motor running while a release instruction for the clutch is output, drive of the engine is changed such that a rotation speed of the engine approaches a rotation speed of the motor generator, and
in the case of the engagement, an upper limit value of an engine torque is defined based on a rotation speed difference between the rotation speed of the engine and the rotation speed of the motor generator.
2. The control device of a hybrid vehicle of claim 1 , wherein in the case of the engagement, the engine is allowed to idle.
3. The control device of a hybrid vehicle of claim 1 , wherein in the case of the engagement, hybrid running is performed with the engine and the motor generator used as drive sources for running.
4. The control device of a hybrid vehicle claim 1 , wherein a second clutch is included in a power transmission path between the motor generator and drive wheels, wherein the second clutch controls power transmission through the power transmitting path depending on an engagement state, and wherein if the rotation speed of the engine is increased in the case of the engagement, a transmission torque of the second clutch is reduced.
