Title:
VEHICLE CONTROL DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/115300
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A vehicle control device that switches the range of an automatic transmission (2) when an electric shift actuator (16) is operated, and starts an engine (1) when a starter motor (7) is operated, in which, for example, at a time (time t0) when a person in a vehicle at an idling stop manipulates a shift lever (11), an operation of a corresponding shift actuator (16) begins (time t1), and after which, subsequent (time t4) to the passing of a prescribed time interval, an operation (cranking) of the starter motor (7) begins. Thus, the starting responsiveness of the vehicle is heightened, the negative effect of a decrease in battery voltage (V) on the operation of the shift actuator (16) is suppressed, and incidences of shock and decreases in drivability are controlled.
