Control apparatus for idle-stop system mounted on vehicle with manual transmission

A control apparatus for a vehicle provided with a clutch to transmit or block a motive force between an output shaft of an engine mounted on the vehicle and a driving wheel of the vehicle, and provided with a brake unit to stop wheels including the driving wheel by applying a braking force to the wheels, the clutch being connected to a clutch member operated by a driver to transmit or block the motive force, the brake unit being connected to a brake member operated by the driver to stop the wheels, the apparatus comprising:

• a restart unit performing a restart operation of the engine while the engine is in an automatic stop condition, the restart unit driving a starter to crank the engine when a predetermined restart condition is met thereby starting the engine;
• an actuator included in the brake unit, the actuator being used for applying the braking force to the wheels;
• and
• forced stopping means for stopping the wheels by forcibly applying the braking force to the wheels by operating the actuator during a predetermined period after the restart condition is met,
• wherein the restart condition includes a condition in which the clutch member is operated to allow the motive force to be transmitted between the output shaft and the driving wheel while the motive force has been blocked by the clutch, and a condition in which the brake member is operated to stop applying the braking force to the wheels while the motive force has been blocked by the clutch.
