Patent ID: 7270621

Claim:
A moving body, comprising: an internal combustion engine that outputs power used for moving said moving body; a motoring structure that motors the internal combustion engine; a motor that outputs power used for moving said moving body; an accumulator unit that transmits electric power to and from the motoring structure and the motor; a gearshift position detection unit that detects a gearshift position of a gearshift lever: a rotation speed measurement unit that measures a rotation speed of the internal combustion engine; and a start control module that, in response to a start request of the internal combustion engine in the detected gearshift position set to a moving position for moving said moving body, controls the motoring structure to motor the internal combustion engine and controls the internal combustion engine to start fuel injection and ignition of the internal combustion engine when the measured rotation speed of the internal combustion engine reaches a preset first rotation speed, in response to a start request of the internal combustion engine in the detected gearshift position other than the moving position, said start control module controlling the motoring structure to motor the internal combustion engine and controlling the internal combustion engine to start fuel injection and ignition of the internal combustion engine when the measured rotation speed of the internal combustion engine reaches a preset second rotation speed, which is higher than the preset first rotation speed.
