DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CRUISE CONTROL OF VEHICLES

Title:

DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CRUISE CONTROL OF VEHICLES

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/134304

Kind Code:

A1

Abstract:

When a start-up operation by a driver is detected while a vehicle is maintained at a stopped state, a target driving force for suppressing the movement of the vehicle on the road to be driven on is calculated, based on the grade obtained regarding the road to be driven on. After the vehicle is driven by the target driving force, the braking force is released so as to terminate the maintaining of the stopped state of the vehicle. Preferably, the state of being driven by the target driving force is maintained until the releasing of the braking force is completed. When the releasing of the braking force is completed, the driving force is increased to start-up the vehicle. With such a start-up control, vehicles are prevented from moving temporarily in a direction opposite from the traveling direction, and a smooth start-up can be achieved.
