Twin clutch controlling apparatus

A twin clutch controlling apparatus comprising:

• a multi-speed transmission having a plurality of gear trains between a main shaft on the input side and a countershaft on the output side, said main shaft including an inner main shaft and an outer main shaft coaxially arranged relative to each other;
• a shift actuator for carrying out a changeover of a shift stage of the multi-speed transmission;
• a twin clutch configured from an odd number stage side clutch and an even number stage side clutch for connecting and disconnecting power transmission, said twin clutch including a first clutch attached against rotation on the inner main shaft for supporting odd number stage side gears and a second clutch attached to the outer main shaft for supporting even number stage side gears, said first clutch and said second clutch being juxtapositioned relative to each other on one side of the multi-speed transmission;
• a clutch actuator operatively connected for controlling the twin clutch;
• a manual operation clutch capacity arithmetic operation section for converting an operational amount of a clutch manual operation means to arithmetically operate a manual operation clutch capacity arithmetic operation value (tqc1tmt) corresponding to the manual operation;
• and
• a manual operation clutch decision section for determining with a clutch capacity (tqc1, tqc2) of which one of the odd number stage side clutch or the even number stage side clutch the manual operation clutch capacity arithmetic operational value (tqc1tmt) is to be interlocked;
• wherein the decision by the manual operation clutch decision section is executed at least based on a target gear position (gptgt) and a gear position (gearpos) at present;
• wherein the gear position (gearpos) at present includes a neutral position at which none of the even number stage side gears and the odd number stage side gears of the multi-speed transmission is in an in-gear state, and
• when the gear position (gearpos) at present is the neutral position, the manual operation clutch decision section carries out a decision to interlock the manual operation clutch capacity arithmetic operation value (tqc1tmt) with an odd number stage side clutch capacity (tqc1).
