Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The integrated controller determines whether or not, regardless of execution of the WSC control, a rotation speed of the motor generator falls to less than an idle rotation speed and also whether or not differential rotation of the second clutch becomes less than a predetermined value, and determines that, if the determination is positive, a continuous MAX pressure failure has occurred in the second clutch.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A failure determining device of a hybrid vehicle, the hybrid vehicle including an engine and a motor arranged in series, a clutch arranged between the motor and a driving wheel, an oil pump operating by transmission of rotation of the motor, and a pressure control mechanism for controlling a hydraulic pressure supplied to the clutch using a discharge pressure of the oil pump as a source pressure, in which clutch control for controlling the hydraulic pre…
