Patent ID: 7565938

Claim:
An electrically operated vehicle drive controller of a vehicle drive unit, which comprises a differential rotating device having first, second and third differential elements, and the first differential element is mechanically connected to the electric generator, and the second differential element is mechanically connected to a drive motor and to a drive wheel, and the third differential element is mechanically connected to an engine, comprising: electric generator target torque calculation processing means for calculating a target value of electric generator torque; inertia correction torque calculation processing means for calculating inertia correction torque on the basis of the calculated electric generator target torque or the electric generator torque corresponding to the calculated electric generator target torque, and an inertia torque of an electric generator corresponding to an angular acceleration of the electric generator; drive motor target torque calculation processing means for calculating a target value of drive motor torque on the basis of the calculated inertia correction torque and a vehicle request torque; and damping torque correction processing means for correcting the target value of the drive motor torque on the basis of an angular acceleration of the drive motor which expresses a change of output torque due to the calculated inertia correction torque.
