Patent ID: 8467924

Claim:
A control apparatus for a hybrid vehicle using at least any one of an internal combustion engine and a rotating electric machine as a power source, said hybrid vehicle comprising: a first power storage device; a first voltage converting device for converting an output voltage of said first power storage device and outputting the output voltage to said rotating electric machine; a second power storage device; and a second voltage converting device for converting an output voltage of said second power storage device and outputting the output voltage to said rotating electric machine, said control apparatus including: a drive control unit for performing any one of hybrid drive control for driving said hybrid vehicle by using driving power of both said internal combustion engine and said rotating electric machine, and electric drive control for driving said hybrid vehicle by using only driving power of said rotating electric machine; and a control unit for controlling said first voltage converting device and said second voltage converting device to actuate both said first voltage converting device and said second voltage converting device during said electric drive control by said drive control unit, and to actuate said first voltage converting device and stop said second voltage converting device during said hybrid drive control by said drive control unit.
