  • Vehicle
    Patent number: 11479119
    Abstract: The controller is programmed to perform first control that controls a driving force distributor such as to decrease a distribution rate upon satisfaction of a predetermined condition that a frequency of at least one rotation fluctuation of an output member of the drive system, a main drive wheel and a sub drive wheel is within a predetermined area, compared with the distribution rate upon non-satisfaction of the predetermined condition.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 4, 2020
    Date of Patent: October 25, 2022
    Assignee: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHA

  • Hybrid vehicle
    Patent number: 10663030
    Abstract: A hybrid vehicle includes: an engine; a transmission; a power transmission path provided between the engine and the transmission; dampers provided in the power transmission path; and a motor, provided between the dampers, the motor including a rotor, a mass body, an elastic member, and a hysteresis mechanism, the elastic member, and a hysteresis mechanism being arranged in parallel between the rotor and the mass body. Further, the hysteresis mechanism applies a frictional force in a direction opposite to a vibration direction of the mass body to the mass body when the mass body vibrates.
