20130245875 | CONTROL DEVICE OF VEHICLE DRIVE DEVICE - A control device of a vehicle drive device includes: a hydraulic power transmission device including an input-side rotating element to which power from an engine is input and an output-side rotating element outputting power to drive wheels; a first electric motor directly or indirectly coupled to the input-side rotating element; and a second electric motor directly or indirectly coupled to the drive wheels. | 09-19-2013 |
20140179477 | VEHICLE - A vehicle using a first MG, a second MG, and an engine as drive sources includes an electric oil pump, a mechanical oil pump driven by power of the engine, and a hydraulic circuit. The hydraulic circuit includes first oil passages for supplying oil to the first MG, a second oil passage for supplying oil to the second MG, a switch-over valve capable of switching over states of communication of the first oil passage, and a switch control valve that outputs pilot hydraulic pressure to the switch-over valve. States of the switch-over valve are switched over in accordance with hydraulic pressure from the switch control valve and hydraulic pressure from the mechanical pump. | 06-26-2014 |
20140342872 | HYBRID VEHICLE POWER TRANSMISSION DEVICE - A power transmission device of a hybrid vehicle comprises: an electric differential portion having a first rotating element coupled to an engine, a second rotating element coupled to a first rotator, and a third rotating element coupled to a second rotator, the second rotator being disposed in a power transmission path including the third rotating element between the engine and drive wheels, the second rotator having a rotor shaft interposed in series in the power transmission path, a rotor of the second rotator being fixed, and making up a portion of the power transmission path. | 11-20-2014 |
20140358349 | CONTROL DEVICE FOR VEHICLE - A control device of a vehicle includes a first electric motor; a differential mechanism having a rotating element coupled to the first electric motor, a rotating element that is an output rotating member coupled to drive wheels in a power transmittable manner, and a rotating element coupled to a non-rotating member by actuation of a lock mechanism; and a second electric motor coupled to the drive wheels in a power transmittable manner. During motor running for running with output torques from the first electric motor and the second electric motor used together in an actuated state of the lock mechanism, a drive torque shared by the first electric motor is made smaller in a requested drive torque when a rotation speed of a pinion making up the differential mechanism is higher. | 12-04-2014 |

20140180441 | CONTROL DEVICE OF VEHICLE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR - Provided is a control device of a vehicle, the vehicle having an electric motor and an engine. The control device includes an operating device and a controller. The operating device is configured to be selected a running capability of the vehicle. The controller configured to increase a running capability to be achieved using the electric motor alone, in a case where the vehicle travels using the electric motor alone according to the selected running capability, as compared with a case where the vehicle travels using the electric motor alone and the running capability is not selected. | 06-26-2014 |
20150046011 | VEHICLE CONTROL DEVICE - A control device of a vehicle is configured to select motor running by one motor, motor running by two motors, and engine running. A charging capacity of an electric storage device allowing selection of the motor running by two motors is higher than a charging capacity allowing selection of the motor running by one motor. In the motor running by two motors and the engine running, a drive force larger than in the motor running by one motor is generated. When the motor running by one motor is performed with a charging capacity equal to or greater than a first threshold value, and a driver's drive request amount is increased, if the charging capacity is equal to or greater than a second threshold value higher than the first threshold value, the motor running by two motors is selected, while if the charging capacity is less than the second threshold value, the engine running is selected. | 02-12-2015 |
