Abstract
A regenerative brake control device for an electric-powered vehicle includes a first regenerative braking force setting unit that is operated by a predetermined number of times so as to change a setting of the regenerative brake control device from a normal regeneration level to a predetermined regeneration level, and a second regenerative braking force setting unit that is operated by a number of times that is greater than the predetermined number of times so as to change the setting of the regenerative brake control device from the normal regeneration level to the predetermined regeneration level.
Claims22
A regenerative brake control device for an electric-powered vehicle comprising:
- a first regenerative braking force setting unit that is operated by a predetermined number of times so as to change a setting of the regenerative brake control device from a normal regeneration level to a predetermined regeneration level;
- and
- a second regenerative braking force setting unit that is operated by a number of times that is greater than the predetermined number of times so as to change the setting of the regenerative brake control device from the normal regeneration level to the predetermined regeneration level.

A regenerative brake control device for an electric-powered vehicle comprising:
- a regenerative brake control unit that controls an electric motor which drives vehicle wheels into a regeneration ratio corresponding to a regenerative level to obtain a regenerative braking force;
- a first regenerative braking force setting unit that sets the regenerative level with an operation of a shift lever;
- and
- a second regenerative braking force setting unit that is operated by a driver gripping a steering wheel to set the regenerative level,
- wherein the number of setting state of the regenerative level with the second regenerative braking force setting unit is equal to or larger than that of the first regenerative braking force setting unit,
- a change to weaken the regeneration ratio from a normal regeneration level is performed only by the second regenerative breaking force setting unit.
