Patent Searching and Data


Title:
HYBRID VEHICLE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/052758
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
When an engine start is requested and when a power request is made by a driver, a power requesting ignition timing is set as an ignition timing that enables a large power output quickly from the engine in response to that power request (S210). In the absence of a power request by the driver and when the vehicle is not stopping and therefore is traveling, almost no chattering noise is produced due to torque being applied to a drive shaft and therefore a vibration controlling ignition timing as an ignition timing for reducing vehicle vibration is set (S220); when it is stopping, chattering noise is produced if torque is too small and therefore a chattering controlling ignition timing is set as an ignition timing so that torque that does not allow gears in a gear mechanism to repeat contacting/separating between them is produced even if torque variation is caused by the engine (S230).
