Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a power transmission device which improves the driving efficiency of a hybrid vehicle.  <P>SOLUTION: According to the results of determinations whether a clutch C, which connects a second motor Mb with a differential D to which an internal-combustion engine E and a first motor Ma are connected, is in an "ON" state or "OFF" state, whether a vehicle is in a cruise traveling state and whether a gear-change ratio (for example, not only a gear-change ratio value itself but also the result of determination whether a gear-change ratio is relatively such a small one as the fourth shift position, fifth shift position and sixth shift position), the operation ("ON" or "OFF" operation) of the clutch C is retrieved by map retrieval. When the operation is in the "OFF" state, the clutch C is changed from the "ON" state to the "OFF" state independently of the determination of the operation of the clutch C based on the state quantity of the first motor, for example, such as a field-weakening current.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT

Abstract: In the case where an intake valve has its phase in a first region between a most retarded angle and CA( 1 ), the rotational speed of relative rotation between an output shaft of an electric motor and a sprocket is reduced at a reduction gear ratio R( 1 ) to change the phase of the intake valve. In the case where the intake valve has its phase in a second region between CA( 2 ) and a most advanced angle, the rotational speed of relative rotation is reduced at a reduction gear ratio R( 2 ) to change the phase of the intake valve. As long as the rotational direction of relative rotation is the same, the phase of the intake valve is changed in the same direction for both of the first region between the most retarded angle and CA( 1 ) and the second region between CA( 2 ) and the most advanced angle.

Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To surely suppress yawing by neither complicating an apparatus nor deteriorating its maintainability.  <P>SOLUTION: A steering control section 20 judges whether or not an own car is yawing based on the angle θH of a steering wheel, the angular velocity (d<SP>2</SP>θH/dt<SP>2</SP>) of the steering wheel, a torque TH applied on front wheels 7fl, 7fr, and a yaw rate ψ. When the own car is yawing, a torque M about a king pin is calculated based on the torque TH applied on the front wheels 7fl, 7fr. Then, an estimated lateral force Fy to be applied on the front wheels 7fl, 7fr is calculated as a yawing parameter from the torque M about the king pin. A target front wheel steered angle δft is calculated from the estimated lateral force Fy. Then, a steering angle correcting value θM is calculated based on the target front wheel steered angle δft and the current angle θH of the steering wheel. Then, the signal of the motor turning angle θM is output to a motor driving section 21. Further, the steering control section 20 lights an alarm lamp 22 when the yawing has been generated.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT
