A functional combined equipment for a motor vehicle
DRIVE
January 2, 2003
A power distributing mechanism distributes a power at a first axis (421) from the engine to a second axis (422) coupled to a motor generator (440), and a third axis (423) coupled to a compressor (450) for air conditioning. A clutch mechanism provides the connection/disconnection of the second axis to/from the third axis, and a lock mechanism provides the locking and unlocking of rotation of the third axis. The control unit inhibits switching operations of the clutch mechanism and lock mechanism for a startup transition period of the engine and a to-stop transition period of the engine and controls the inverter to suppress the operation of the motor generator in the generator mode for a startup transition period of the compressor and a to-stop transition period of the compressor, while the engine is running.
