Abstract:
1. A drive controller for hybrid vehicles, the hybrid vehicle comprising: a diesel engine mounted on a vehicle; a motor generator connected in series with said diesel engine which is able to assist a driving force of said diesel engine; an automatic clutch mechanism connected between said diesel engine and said motor generator which is able to engage/disengage a transmission of the driving force between said diesel engine and said motor generator; an automatic transmission that varies a rotation speed of said motor generator or said diesel engine; a filter for collecting particulates in exhaust gas from said diesel engine; and said drive controller for controlling operations of said diesel engine, said motor generator, said automatic clutch mechanism and said automatic transmission, wherein said drive controller operates in such a way that, for starting off of the vehicle, the vehicle is made to start off only by the driving force from said motor generator ( for regenerating said filter, a fast-idle control by which an idling speed of said diesel engine is kept higher than that at which non-regeneration of said filter is carried out while the vehicle stops and when a vehicle speed is detected, and the predetermined rotational speed (N
