The present invention comprises: a synchronization start determination unit 110 for determining a synchronization start of a synchronization device 70; a half-clutch determination unit 130 for determining whether a clutch device 20 is in a half-clutch state where the clutch device has not been switched from a connection state to a disconnection state; and a damage determination unit 140 which, when the synchronization start determination unit 110 has determined the synchronization start and if the half-cutch determination unit 130 has determined a half-clutch state, determines that damage is applied to the synchronization device 70 caused by the differential rotation between the power transmitted from a driving force source 10 side via the clutch device 20 and the power transmitted from a driving wheels 16L, 16R side.

A power transmission device includes a friction clutch, an actuator, and a controller configured to determine an approximated temperature change of the friction clutch. The controller is configured to determine a current power state of the friction clutch, determine a desired power state change based on the current power state and a previous power state, determine a plurality of thermal coefficients based on a thermal coefficient model, the desired power state change, and a set of operation variables, determine an approximated temperature change of the friction clutch based on the thermal coefficients and a friction clutch temperature model, determine an approximated clutch temperature based on the approximated temperature change and a contemporaneous value of an device ambient temperature, and control operation of the actuator based at least on the approximated clutch temperature.

An apparatus for controlling a hybrid vehicle and a method thereof are provided. The apparatus includes a hybrid starter & generator (HSG) controller that determines whether an HSG has failed, and a hybrid vehicle controller that controls reverse drive by controlling locking up an engine clutch and maintaining a main relay of a battery to be continuously turned on, based on whether a request for the reverse drive is input from a user. The hybrid vehicle controller changes and applies a vehicle torque control calculation method based on a state of charge (SoC) of the battery, when the HSG has failed.

A drive device for a PTO shaft includes a parking switch to detect a parking state of a vehicle body, a permission switch constituted of a self-returning switch and connected to the parking switch, the permission switch being configured to be switched to permit driving a PTO shaft, the PTO shaft being configured to be driven by a power of a prime mover disposed on the vehicle body, and a first switch device to be switched to enable the PTO shaft to be driven when the permission switch is switched to permit driving the PTO shaft under a state where the parking switch detects the parking state of the vehicle body.

A vehicle control system for preventing malfunction of the clutch for selectively connecting the engine with the power train. The vehicle control system is applied to a vehicle having an engine, a motor disposed on a power train, and a clutch interposed therebetween. In order to prevent a malfunction of the clutch, the vehicle control system is configured to engage the clutch while causing a slip but without starting the engine if the engine has not yet been started.
