Abstract: The control device is a control device applied to the vehicle. The control device is capable of performing a starting process to start the internal combustion engine by driving either the motor generator or the starter upon receipt of a starting request. The control device starts the internal combustion engine by driving the starter when, in the starting process, the starting request is based on remote operation from the communication device outside the vehicle. On the other hand, in the starting process, the control device starts the internal combustion engine by driving the motor generator if it receives a starting request while there is an occupant in the vehicle.

Abstract: A vehicle power supply device includes a relay controller. When a low voltage switching request is made to set a mode for supplying electric power from a switching module group to a low voltage power supply, the relay controller is configured to perform in sequence a first process of switching a first main relay and a second main relay to an open state, a second process of connecting a first switching relay to a second electrode terminal of the low voltage power supply and switching a second switching relay to a closed state, a third process of switching a precharge relay to a closed state and switching a third switching relay to a closed state, a fourth process of switching the second main relay to a closed state, and a fifth process of switching the precharge relay to an open state.

Abstract: A drive control section automatically stops an engine by stopping fuel injection and by closing a throttle valve that adjusts the amount of intake air when a predetermined specified condition is satisfied. A stopping-angle detection section detects a crank angle when the engine is automatically stopped as a stopping angle. The drive control section cranks the engine before an in-cylinder negative pressure period, in which pressure in a cylinder of the engine is negative pressure, elapses after starting to automatically stop the engine if the stopping angle is outside an allowable crank-angle range in which it is possible to restart the engine by cranking the engine by the motor generator.

The Z table (21) moves back and forth in parallel with the longitudinal direction of the cylinder bores (wn). The Y table moves back and forth in a direction perpendicular to the rows of the cylinder bores (Wn). The X table (13) moves back and forth in parallel with the rows of cylinder bores (Wn).
