Clutch control device of hybrid vehicle

A clutch control device for exercising disengagement and engagement control of a clutch in a hybrid vehicle, the hybrid vehicle having formed therein a driving force transmission path for transmitting a driving force from an engine to driving wheels via the clutch, and a rotating force transmission path in which an electric motor is connected between the clutch and the driving wheels to transmit a rotating force of the electric motor to the driving wheels, wherein

• the clutch comprises
• a first clutch plate to which the driving force from the engine is inputted, and
• a second clutch plate engaging the first clutch plate to form the driving force transmission path,
• the second clutch plate is configured to be synchronized with rotation of the electric motor, and
• the clutch control device has determination means which determines that engagement of the clutch has been accomplished, on condition that a difference between rotational numbers of the first clutch plate and the second clutch plate at a predetermined engaging time after start of the engagement of the clutch is equal to or smaller than a predetermined value, when the clutch control device performs the disengagement and engagement control of the clutch so as to switch from a first travel mode, in which the vehicle runs by use of the rotating force transmission path alone, to a second travel mode using the driving force transmission path.
