Driving control mechanism and driving control device

Abstract

A driving control mechanism includes: a motor that is coupled to a driving wheel; a transmission that is coupled to the driving wheel; and an internal combustion engine that is coupled to an input shaft of the transmission. In a first state in which a driving force of the motor is transmitted to the driving wheel and a driving force of the internal combustion engine is not transmitted to the driving wheel, the transmission reduces a transmission gear ratio to a value less than a target transmission gear ratio according to a requested driving force when a transition request to a second state in which driving forces of the motor and the internal combustion engine are transmitted to the driving wheel is issued. The motor increases a driving force to be transmitted to the driving wheel when the transition request is issued.
