Abstract
A clutch control device includes an engine, a gearbox, a clutch device configured to disconnect and connect power transmission between the engine and the gearbox, a clutch actuator configured to drive the clutch device and vary a clutch capacity, and an ECU configured to calculate a control target value of the clutch capacity, and the ECU determines whether an engine rotational number after downshifting by the gearbox enters a high rotation region and decreases the clutch capacity after downshifting when it is determined that the engine rotational number after downshifting enters the high rotation region.
Claims6
A clutch control device comprising:
- an engine;
- a gearbox;
- a clutch device configured to disconnect and connect power transmission between the engine and the gearbox;
- a clutch actuator configured to drive the clutch device and vary a clutch capacity;
- and
- a controller configured to calculate a control target value of the clutch capacity,
- wherein the controller determines whether an engine rotational number after downshifting by the gearbox enters a high rotation region before the downshifting is performed, and decreases the clutch capacity after downshifting when it is determined that the engine rotational number after downshifting enters the high rotation region.
