以下、本実施形態に係る車両用駆動装置1及び制御装置30について、詳細に説明する。
まず、本実施形態に係るハイブリッド車両の車両用駆動装置1の構成について説明する。図1に示すように、ハイブリッド車両は、車両の駆動力源としてエンジンE及び回転電機MGを備え、これらのエンジンEと回転電機MGとが直列に駆動連結されるパラレル方式のハイブリッド車両となっている。ハイブリッド車両は、変速機構TMを備えており、当該変速機構TMにより、中間軸Mに伝達されたエンジンE及び回転電機MGの回転速度を変速すると共にトルクを変換して出力軸Oに伝達する。
車両用駆動装置1の油圧制御系は、機械式や電動式の油圧ポンプから供給される作動油の油圧を所定圧に調整するための油圧制御装置PCを備えている。ここでは詳しい説明を省略するが、油圧制御装置PCは、油圧調整用のリニアソレノイド弁からの信号圧に基づき一又は二以上の調整弁の開度を調整することにより、当該調整弁からドレインする作動油の量を調整して作動油の油圧を一又は二以上の所定圧に調整する。所定圧に調整された作動油は、それぞれ必要とされるレベルの油圧で、変速機構TM、並びに第一係合装置CL1や第二係合装置CL2の各摩擦係合要素等に供給される。
次に、車両用駆動装置1の制御を行う制御装置30及びエンジン制御装置31の構成について、図2を参照して説明する。
制御装置30の制御ユニット32~34及びエンジン制御装置31は、CPU等の演算処理装置を中核部材として備えるとともに、当該演算処理装置からデータを読み出し及び書き込みが可能に構成されたRAM(ランダム・アクセス・メモリ)や、演算処理装置からデータを読み出し可能に構成されたROM(リード・オンリ・メモリ)等の記憶装置等を有して構成されている。そして、制御装置のROM等に記憶されたソフトウェア(プログラム)又は別途設けられた演算回路等のハードウェア、或いはそれらの両方により、制御装置30の各機能部41~47などが構成されている。また、制御装置30の制御ユニット32~34及びエンジン制御装置31は、互いに通信を行うように構成されており、センサの検出情報及び制御パラメータ等の各種情報を共有するとともに協調制御を行い、各機能部41~47の機能が実現される。
エンジン回転速度センサSe1は、エンジン出力軸Eo(エンジンE)の回転速度を検出するためのセンサである。エンジン制御装置31は、エンジン回転速度センサSe1の入力信号に基づいてエンジンEの回転速度ωeを検出する。
入力回転速度センサSe2は、入力軸I及び中間軸Mの回転速度を検出するためのセンサである。入力軸I及び中間軸Mには回転電機MGのロータが一体的に駆動連結されているので、制御装置30は、入力回転速度センサSe2の入力信号に基づいて回転電機MGの回転速度ωm、並びに入力軸I及び中間軸Mの回転速度を検出する。
出力回転速度センサSe3は、出力軸Oの回転速度を検出するためのセンサである。制御装置30は、出力回転速度センサSe3の入力信号に基づいて出力軸Oの回転速度を検出する。また、出力軸Oの回転速度は車速に比例するため、制御装置30は、出力回転速度センサSe3の入力信号に基づいて車速を算出する。
バッテリ充電状態検出センサSe5は、バッテリBTの充電状態を検出するためのセンサである。本実施形態では、バッテリ充電状態検出センサSe5は、バッテリ電圧を検出するための電圧センサ、バッテリ電流を検出するための電流センサ、及びバッテリ温度を検出するための温度センサなどから構成されたセンサである。制御装置30は、バッテリ充電状態検出センサSe5の入力信号に基づいて、バッテリBTの充電量を推定する。
エンジン制御装置31は、エンジンEの動作制御を行うエンジン制御部41を備えている。本実施形態では、エンジン制御部41は、車両制御ユニット34からエンジン要求トルクが指令されている場合は、車両制御ユニット34から指令されたエンジン要求トルクを出力トルク指令値に設定し、エンジンEが出力トルク指令値のトルクを出力するように制御するトルク制御を行う。また、エンジン制御装置31は、エンジン始動要求があった場合は、エンジンEの燃焼開始が指令されたと判定して、エンジンEへの燃料供給及び点火を開始するなどして、エンジンEの燃焼を開始する制御を行う。
動力伝達制御ユニット33は、変速機構TMの制御を行う変速機構制御部43と、第一係合装置CL1の制御を行う第一係合装置制御部44と、スリップ制御中に第二係合装置CL2の制御を行う第二係合装置制御部45と、を備えている。
変速機構制御部43は、変速機構TMに変速段を形成する制御を行う。変速機構制御部43は、車速、アクセル開度、及びシフト位置などのセンサ検出情報に基づいて変速機構TMにおける目標変速段を決定する。そして、変速機構制御部43は、油圧制御装置PCを介して変速機構TMに備えられた複数の係合装置に供給される油圧を制御することにより、各係合装置を係合又は解放して目標とされた変速段を変速機構TMに形成させる。具体的には、変速機構制御部43は、油圧制御装置PCに各係合装置の目標油圧(指令圧)を指令し、油圧制御装置PCは、指令された目標油圧(指令圧)の油圧を各係合装置に供給する。
第一係合装置制御部44は、第一係合装置CL1の係合状態を制御する。本実施形態では、第一係合装置制御部44は、第一係合装置CL1の伝達トルク容量が、車両制御ユニット34から指令された第一目標トルク容量T1oに一致するように、油圧制御装置PCを介して第一係合装置CL1に供給される油圧を制御する。具体的には、第一係合装置制御部44は、第一目標トルク容量T1oに基づき設定した目標油圧(指令圧)を、油圧制御装置PCに指令し、油圧制御装置PCは、指令された目標油圧(指令圧)の油圧を第一係合装置CL1に供給する。
第二係合装置制御部45は、スリップ制御中に第二係合装置CL2の係合状態を制御する。本実施形態では、第二係合装置CL2は、変速機構TMの変速段を形成している複数又は単数の係合装置の一つとされる。
本実施形態では、第二係合装置制御部45は、第二係合装置CL2の伝達トルク容量が、車両制御ユニット34から指令された第二目標トルク容量T2oに一致するように、油圧制御装置PCを介して第二係合装置CL2に供給される油圧を制御する。具体的には、第二係合装置制御部45は、第二目標トルク容量T2oに基づき設定した目標油圧(指令圧)を、油圧制御装置PCに指令し、油圧制御装置PCは、指令された目標油圧(指令圧)の油圧を第二係合装置CL2に供給する。
回転電機制御ユニット32は、回転電機MGの動作制御を行う回転電機制御部42を備えている。本実施形態では、回転電機制御部42は、車両制御ユニット34から指令された回転電機要求トルクTmoを出力トルク指令値に設定し、回転電機MGが出力トルク指令値のトルクを出力するように制御するトルク制御を行う。具体的には、回転電機制御部42は、インバータINが備える複数のスイッチング素子をオンオフ制御することにより、回転電機MGの出力トルクTmを制御する。
車両制御ユニット34は、エンジンE、回転電機MG、変速機構TM、第一係合装置CL1、及び第二係合装置CL2等に対して行われる各種トルク制御、及び各係合装置の係合制御等を車両全体として統合する制御を行う機能部を備えている。
本実施形態では、車両制御ユニット34は、回転電機MGの発電中に第一係合装置CL1及び第二係合装置CL2の双方を滑り係合状態に制御するスリップ制御を行うスリップ制御部46、及び発電回転速度制御を行う発電回転速度制御部47を備えている。
以下、スリップ制御部46及び発電回転速度制御部47について詳細に説明する。
本実施形態では、後述する発電回転速度制御部47の処理はスリップ制御中に実行されるため、まず、発電回転速度制御部47の処理の前提となるスリップ制御部46によるスリップ制御について説明する。
本実施形態では、スリップ制御部46は、エンジンEの駆動力による回転電機MGの発電中に、第一係合装置CL1及び第二係合装置CL2の双方を滑り係合状態に制御することにより、エンジンEの回転駆動を維持したままで、エンジンEの駆動力を車輪Wにも伝達して車両を駆動することができると共に、係合装置で生じる摩擦熱を各係合装置CL1、CL2に分散させて各係合装置CL1、CL2の過熱を抑制することができる。すなわち、スリップ制御部46は、第二係合装置CL2を滑り係合状態に制御することにより、第二係合装置CL2のスリップ伝達トルクを駆動力源から車輪Wに伝達して車両を駆動することができる。また、スリップ制御部46は、第一係合装置CL1を滑り係合状態に制御することより、エンジンEの回転速度ωeを維持したままで回転電機MGの回転速度ωmを低減することができる。これにより、第二係合装置CL2の摩擦熱を低減して、その分を第一係合装置CL1に受け持たせることができる。
また、バッテリBTの充電量が低く、エアコンディショナ等などの各種電動機の電力消費量が大きい場合には、スリップ制御中も回転電機MGの発電量Wgを大きくする必要があり、目標発電量Wgoが大きく設定される。
本実施形態では、車両制御ユニット34は、バッテリBTの充電量が低く、電動機の電力消費量が大きい場合のように、回転電機MGによる発電が必要である状態であって、車両が停止している状態の場合は、車両が停止している状態であってもエンジンEを停止させずに回転駆動させ、エンジンEの回転駆動力で回転電機MGに発電させる停車エンジン発電モードを実行するように構成されている。この停車エンジン発電モードでは、第一係合装置CL1は直結係合状態に制御され、第二係合装置CL2は解放状態に制御される。よって、エンジンEの駆動力は、回転電機MGに伝達され、車輪Wに伝達されない。
ここで、エンジンE及び回転電機MGの目標回転速度は、目標発電量Wgoに基づいて決定され、発電により回転電機MGのコイル及びインバータINの温度が上昇しすぎないような目標回転速度に設定される。
なお、完全係合容量は、駆動力源から係合装置に伝達されるトルクが変動しても、滑りのない係合状態を維持できる係合装置の伝達トルク容量である。本実施形態では、完全係合容量は、駆動力源から係合装置に伝達されるトルクが最大となっても係合装置に滑りを生じない伝達トルク容量に設定される。
発電回転速度制御部47は、第一係合装置CL1を所定の回転速度差を有した滑り係合状態に維持するために、発電回転速度制御における回転電機MGの目標回転速度ωmoをエンジンEの回転速度ωeより低い回転速度に設定する。
すなわち、発電回転速度制御部47は、回転電機MGが発電中の状態で当該回転電機MGの回転速度ωmが、エンジンEの回転速度ωeより低い回転速度に設定された目標回転速度ωmoに近づくように、回転電機MGの出力トルクTm(回生トルク)を制御する。
発電回転速度制御部47は、監視対象温度に基づく補正が必要な場合は、監視対象温度に基づいて目標回転速度ωmoを決定して発電回転速度制御を行う(時刻t13から時刻t15)。また、発電回転速度制御部47は、発電回転速度制御中に、回転電機MGの発電量Wgを目標発電量Wgoに維持する発電量維持制御を実行する(時刻t12から時刻t15)。
ここで、出力回転速度は、出力軸Oの回転速度を回転電機MG側の回転速度相当に換算した回転速度であり、出力回転速度と回転電機MGの回転速度ωmとの回転速度差が、第二係合装置CL2の係合部材間の回転速度差相当となる。
次に、スリップ制御中に発電回転速度制御を実行する発電回転速度制御部47について詳細に説明する。
発電回転速度制御部47は、上記したように、第一係合装置CL1及び第二係合装置CL2の双方が滑り係合状態であって回転電機MGが発電中の状態で、回転電機MGの回転速度ωmが目標回転速度ωmoに近づくように回転電機MGの出力トルクTmを制御する発電回転速度制御を実行する機能部である。
そして、発電回転速度制御部47は、発電回転速度制御において、回転電機MGの温度及びインバータINの温度の少なくとも一方を監視対象温度として監視し、当該監視対象温度に基づいて目標回転速度ωmoを決定すると共に、発電回転速度制御中の回転電機MGの発電量Wgを目標発電量Wgoに維持する発電量維持制御を実行する。
本実施形態では、発電回転速度制御部47は、エンジンEの駆動力による回転電機MGの発電中に、上記したスリップ制御により、第一係合装置CL1及び第二係合装置CL2の双方を滑り係合状態に制御している間に、発電回転速度制御を行うように構成されている。
まず、回転電機MGのコイルの発熱特性について説明する。
回転電機MGの発電量Wgは、式(1)で示すように、回生トルクTgの大きさ(絶対値)と回転電機MGの回転速度ωmとを乗算した値に比例する。
Wg ∝ |Tg|×ωm ・・・(1)
よって、図4及び式(2)に示すように、発電量Wgを一定量とする条件では、回生トルクTgの大きさは、回転電機MGの回転速度ωmに反比例して変化する。
|Tg| ∝ Wg/ωm ・・・(2)
このため、例えば、スリップ制御を行う際のように回転電機MGの回転速度ωmを低下させる場合に、発電量Wgを同じ量に維持するためには、回生トルクTgの大きさを増加させる必要がある(例えば、図4における動作点Aから動作点Bへの移行)。
Ic ∝ |Tg| ・・・(3)
そして、式(4)に示すように、回転電機MGのコイルを流れる電流Icの2乗に比例して、コイルの発熱量Wcが増加する。
Wc ∝ Ic2 ・・・(4)
よって、コイル温度Tcは、図5に示すように、発電量Wgを一定量とする条件では、回転電機MGの回転速度ωmが低下するに従い上昇する定常特性となる。
例えば、図5に示すように、スリップ制御により回転電機MGの回転速度ωmが低下される前(ω1)では、高い発電量Wgが設定されている場合でも、コイル温度Tcが許容上限温度Tmxc以下の温度T1に抑えられており(動作点A)、高温によるコイルの劣化が進行する恐れを抑制できている。しかし、スリップ制御により回転電機MGの回転速度ωmを低下させ(ω2)、しかも発電量Wgを変化させず一定量に維持する場合は、図5の動作点Eに示すように、コイル温度Tcは、定常状態では、許容上限温度Tmxcを超えた温度となり、高温によるコイルの劣化の恐れが生じる。そこで、コイル温度Tcが、コイルの許容上限温度Tmxcを超えないように、回転電機MGの回転速度ωmをスリップ制御により設定される回転速度(ω2)から、例えば、コイル温度Tcが定常的に許容上限温度Tmxcになる回転速度(ω3、動作点D)以上に上昇させる必要がある。
次に、インバータINの発熱特性について説明する。
インバータINの発熱量は、回転電機MGのコイルと同様に、回転電機MGを流れる電流Icが増加するにつれて増加する。
インバータINの温度Tinは、定常状態では、電流IcによるインバータINの発熱量と、インバータINから出ていく放熱量、冷却量とがバランスした温度となり、電流Icによる発熱量が増加するに従い、インバータ温度Tinが増加する定常特性となる。よって、インバータ温度Tinは、上記したコイルと同様に、発電量Wgを一定量とする条件では、回転電機MGの回転速度ωmが低下するに従い増加する定常特性となる。よって、インバータ温度Tinが、インバータINの許容上限温度Tmxiを超えないように、回転電機MGの回転速度ωmをスリップ制御により設定される基準回転速度ωmobから上昇させる必要がある。
3-4-2-4-1.監視対象温度に基づいた目標回転速度ωmoの決定
次に、本実施形態に係わる発電回転速度制御部47の構成について詳細に説明する。
発電回転速度制御部47は、上記したように、回転電機MGの温度としてのコイル温度Tc及びインバータINの温度Tinの少なくとも一方を監視対象温度として監視し、当該監視対象温度に基づいて目標回転速度ωmoを決定するように構成されている。
発電回転速度制御部47は、図6の例に示すように、コイル温度Tcが予め定められた制御温度領域内である場合には、コイル温度Tcが高くなるに従って高い値となるように目標回転速度ωmoを決定するように構成されている。
図6に示す例では、制御温度領域は、それぞれ許容上限温度Tmxcより所定温度だけ低い制御開始温度Tsc以上の温度領域に設定されている。
このように構成することにより、コイル温度Tcが許容上限温度Tmxcとなった場合に、コイル温度Tcが定常的に許容上限温度Tmxcとなる温度均衡回転速度まで、回転電機MGの回転速度ωmが上昇されるので、コイル温度Tcが許容上限温度Tmxcを超えることを防止できる。
また、温度均衡回転速度は、スリップ制御中に設定されえる最大の目標発電量Wgoに対応する所定の温度均衡回転速度、又は変動、外乱が生じてもコイル温度Tcが許容上限温度Tmxcを超えないような所定の回転速度のように、目標発電量Wgoの変化に関わらず固定値に設定されるように構成されてもよい。このように構成すれば、簡単な構成で確実にコイル温度Tcが許容上限温度Tmxcを超えることを防止できる。
このように構成することにより、コイル温度Tcが制御開始温度Tscから許容上限温度Tmxcに近づくにつれ、回転電機MGの回転速度ωmを上昇させる共に回生トルクの大きさを減少させ、監視対象物であるコイルの発熱量を減少させることができる。よって、コイル温度Tcが許容上限温度Tmxcに近づくにつれ、コイル温度Tcの上昇速度を減少させ、コイル温度Tcを、許容上限温度Tmxcをオーバーシュートさせることなく、滑らかに許容上限温度Tmxc以下の温度に収束させることができる。
なお、図6に示す例では、目標回転速度ωmoは、コイル温度Tcが増加するに従い、一定の傾きで増加するように構成されているが、任意の傾きで増加するように構成されてもよい。また、目標回転速度ωmoは、許容上限温度Tmxc以下のコイル温度Tcで、ステップ的に基準回転速度ωmobから温度均衡回転速度まで増加させるように構成されてもよい。
或いは、発電回転速度制御部47は、コイル温度Tcが許容上限温度Tmxcを上回った場合に、コイル温度Tcが許容上限温度Tmxc以下になるまで、目標回転速度ωmoを温度均衡回転速度から徐々に増加させるように構成してもよい。
このように構成すると、図3に示す時刻t12からt13までの期間のように、スリップ制御中にコイル温度Tcに基づいた目標回転速度ωmoの増加を行なっていない期間において、回転電機MGの回転速度ωmを、目標発電量Wgoを確保できる下限まで低下させることができ、第二係合装置CL2の係合部材間の回転速度差を減少させることができる。よって、第二係合装置のCL2の滑り係合状態における発熱を低減することができる。なお、滑り係合状態における係合装置の発熱量は、係合部材間の回転速度差とスリップ伝達トルクとを乗算した値に比例する。
発電回転速度制御部47は、これまで説明したコイル温度Tcの場合と同様の決定方法で、インバータ温度Tinに基づいて目標回転速度ωmoを決定するように構成される。監視対象温度がコイル温度Tcである場合の図6、図7は、監視対象温度がインバータ温度Tinである場合では、それぞれ、図8、図9となる。また、監視対象温度がコイル温度Tcである場合の許容上限温度Tmxc、制御開始温度Tscは、監視対象温度がインバータ温度Tinである場合では、図8に示すよう許容上限温度Tmxi、制御開始温度Tsiとなる。
監視対象温度がインバータ温度Tinである場合における制御温度領域、許容上限温度Tmxi、制御開始温度Tsi、温度均衡回転速度などの設定値は、インバータINの発熱特性などに合わせて設定される。
発電回転速度制御部47が、回転電機MGの温度としてのコイル温度Tcに基づく第一目標回転速度ωmo1と、インバータINの温度に基づく第二目標回転速度ωmo2とを決定し、第一目標回転速度ωmo1及び第二目標回転速度ωmo2のいずれか高い方に基づいて目標回転速度ωmoを決定するように構成されている。
また、図10に示す例では、基準回転速度決定部58が、上記したように、目標発電量Wgoに基づいて基準回転速度ωmobを決定するように構成されている。或いは、スリップ制御部46が決定した基準回転速度ωmobを用いるように構成してもよい。
このため、図10に示す例では、上限制限器53は、仮目標回転速度ωmotをエンジンEの回転速度ωeで上限制限した値を目標回転速度ωmoとして設定するように構成されている。具体的には、上限制限器53は、仮目標回転速度ωmotと、エンジンEの回転速度ωeとの小さい方の値を、目標回転速度ωmoとして設定するように構成されている。
このように構成すると、回転電機MGの回転速度ωmをエンジンEの回転速度ωe以下に維持できる。よって、第一係合装置CL1のスリップ伝達トルクが、エンジンE側から回転電機MG側に伝達される状態を維持でき、エンジンEの駆動力による回転電機MGの発電を継続的に行うことができる。
発電回転速度制御部47は、上記したように、発電回転速度制御中の回転電機MGの発電量Wgを目標発電量Wgoに維持する発電量維持制御を実行するように構成されている。
本実施形態では、発電回転速度制御部47は、発電量維持制御において、目標回転速度ωmoと目標発電量Wgoとに基づいて回転電機MGに出力させるべき目標のトルクである目標回生トルクTgoを決定し、当該目標回生トルクTgoに基づいて、第一係合装置CL1の伝達トルク、第二係合装置CL2の伝達トルク、及びエンジンEの出力トルクTeのいずれか1つ以上を制御するように構成されている。
この構成によれば、図4に示すような発電特性に従い、スリップ制御の開始により目標回転速度ωmoが基準回転速度ωmobまで減少されると目標回生トルクTgoが増加され(動作点Aから動作点Bへの変化に相当)、監視対象温度の上昇とともに目標回転速度ωmoが基準回転速度ωmobから増加されると目標回生トルクTgoが減少される(動作点Cから動作点Dへの変化に相当)。
そして、発電回転速度制御部47は、第一係合装置CL1の伝達トルクの制御として、エンジンEの回転速度ωeがエンジンEの目標回転速度ωeoに近づくように、第一目標トルク容量T1oを変化させるエンジン回転速度制御を行うように構成されており、回転フィードバック制御器56を備えている。
この構成によれば、エンジンEの出力トルクTeは、目標回生トルクTgoの増減分だけ変化する。エンジンEの出力トルクTeが増減すると、エンジンEの回転速度ωeが変化しようとするが、第一係合装置CL1のエンジン回転速度制御により第一係合装置CL1の伝達トルクが自動的に増減されて、エンジンEの回転速度ωeがエンジンEの目標回転速度ωeoに維持される。例えば、目標回生トルクTgoの増加分だけエンジンEの出力トルクTeが増加されると、エンジン回転速度制御によりエンジンEの出力トルクTeの増加分だけ第一係合装置CL1の伝達トルクが自動的に増加する。よって、目標回生トルクTgoの増加分だけ第一係合装置CL1の伝達トルクが増加することとなる。なお、この伝達トルクの増加分だけエンジンEの慣性系に作用するトルクが減少し、エンジンEの回転速度ωeが目標回転速度ωeoに維持される。
従って、上記の構成によれば、エンジンEの出力トルクTeを目標回生トルクTgoの増加分だけ増加させることにより、間接的に、目標回生トルクTgoの増加分だけ回転電機MGの出力トルクTmが減少され、回転電機MGの回生トルクの大きさを増加させることができる。
<例1>
次に、発電回転速度制御の挙動について、図3の例を参照して説明する。図3に示す例は、監視対象温度としてのコイル温度Tcが制御開始温度Tscに達する場合の例である。なお、監視対象温度としてのインバータ温度Tinは制御開始温度Tsiに達していないものとする(不図示)。
上記したように、スリップ制御の開始後、第一係合装置CL1が滑り係合状態になったと判定された場合に、発電回転速度制御が開始される(時刻t12)。
回転電機MGの目標回転速度ωmoが基準回転速度ωmobに低下される前まで(時刻t12まで)は、目標回生トルクTgoは比較的小さい値に設定されているので、コイル温度Tcは、許容上限温度Tmxc及び制御開始温度Tscより低い温度T1に維持されている。これは、上記したように、スリップ制御が開始される前のエンジンE及び回転電機MGの目標回転速度は、目標発電量Wgoに基づいて、コイル温度Tcが許容上限温度Tmxcより低い温度に維持されるような回転速度に設定されているためである。
本実施形態では、図11を参照して説明したように、目標回生トルクTgoの増加分だけ、エンジン要求トルクTeoが増加される。そして、第一係合装置CL1によるエンジン回転速度制御により、この増加分だけ第一目標トルク容量T1oが自動的に増加され、更に回転電機回転速度によりこの増加分だけ回転電機要求トルクTmoが自動的に減少される。よって、回転電機要求トルクTmoが、目標回生トルクTgoの増加分だけ間接的に減少され、回転電機MGの発電量Wgが目標発電量Wgoに維持される。
次に、発電回転速度制御の挙動の別例について、図12の例を参照して説明する。図12に示す例は、図3の場合とは異なり、発電回転速度制御により目標回転速度ωmoがエンジンEの回転速度ωeまで増加される場合の例である。このような場合として、例えば、コイルを冷却する冷媒が、第二係合装置CL2を冷却する冷媒と共用されており、第二係合装置CL2がスリップ制御中に滑り係合状態にされ発熱することにより、コイルを冷却する冷媒の温度がスリップ制御前よりも上昇することなどにより生じる。これ以外の条件は、図3の場合と同様である。
最後に、本発明のその他の実施形態について説明する。なお、以下に説明する各実施形態の構成は、それぞれ単独で適用されるものに限られず、矛盾が生じない限り、他の実施形態の構成と組み合わせて適用することも可能である。
これらの場合は、車両用駆動装置1において、変速機構TMが備えられないように構成されてもよい。
例えば、発電回転速度制御部47は、第一係合装置CL1の伝達トルクの制御として、車両要求トルクTrqに目標回生トルクTgoを加算した値を、第一目標トルク容量T1oとして設定するトルク制御を行うように構成され、エンジンEの出力トルクTeの制御として、エンジンEの回転速度ωeがエンジンEの目標回転速度ωeoに近づくようにエンジン要求トルクTeoを変化させるエンジン回転速度制御を行うように構成されてもよい。
或いは、発電回転速度制御部47は、車両要求トルクTrqに基づいて決定された第二目標トルク容量T2oを、目標回生トルクTgoに基づいて補正するなど、目標回生トルクTgoに基づいて第二目標トルク容量T2oを決定するように構成されてもよい。
