The disclosure provides a hydraulic control device capable of suppressing an excessive increase in the rotation speed of a second pump and stabilizing the discharge pressure of the second pump. The target rotation speed of the second pump for making a pressure value of a first oil close to an estimated value of a pressure value of a third oil is calculated, and a feedback amount with respect to the target rotation speed is calculated by subtracting the estimated value of the pressure value of the third oil from the pressure value of the first oil detected by a hydraulic sensor. Time regions for performing calculation of the feedback amount include an update region in which the feedback amount with respect to the target rotation speed is updated, and a hold region in which update of the feedback amount with respect to the target rotation speed is temporarily stopped.

Provided is a hydraulic control device in which in the rotation control of the second pump, the required discharge pressure of the second pump can be more reliably maintained below a predetermined pressure in the control that keeps the target rotation speed constant after the feedback control ends. In the rotation control of the second pump, in the control which keeps the target rotation speed constant after the feedback control ends, the rotation of the second pump is controlled by adding a predetermined addition rotation speed to the target rotation speed corresponding to the required discharge pressure. Since the required discharge pressure of the second pump can be maintained below a predetermined pressure in the fixed mode by the addition rotation speed, it can reliably obtain the effect of reducing the work load of the first pump and contribute to the improvement of the fuel efficiency of the vehicle.
