- the transmission (40) includes a plurality of forward gears and a single reverse gear, and connects the first clutch (108A) when the low speed mode is selected. Since the driving force is transmitted by the reverse gear and the second clutch (108B) is connected to transmit the driving force by the second gear among the plurality of forward gears, the twin clutch
- the configuration of the transmission can be used to prevent back and forth movement in a low speed mode, stop on a flat surface and prevent slippage on a slope.
- the slow mode switching switch (67) for switching from the normal travel mode to the slow speed mode since the slow mode switching switch (67) for switching from the normal travel mode to the slow speed mode is provided, operability can be improved by setting the dedicated switch.
- the control device (106) includes a brake device (63, 69) for generating a braking force on the drive wheel (WR) and the other wheel (WF) of the vehicle (1). If the operating force of the brake device (63, 69) becomes equal to or greater than a predetermined value while the slow speed mode is selected, the braking force is maintained for a predetermined time even if the operating force decreases, so the slow speed mode At the same time, the stability of the vehicle body can be further enhanced by executing the control of the brake device in addition to the driving force control.
- the driving force is started to be transmitted to the drive wheel (WR). After that, since the braking force is released, a special operation for releasing the braking force is not necessary, and the operability in the low speed mode can be enhanced.
- the throttle device (102) for adjusting the output of the engine (100) is a throttle-by-wire method in which the motor (144) drives the throttle valve in accordance with at least rotation angle information of the throttle grip. Yes, since the turning operation of the throttle grip with respect to the output of the engine (100) becomes invalid while the slow speed mode is selected, the driving force does not change even if the throttle operation is performed while the slow speed mode is selected. , It is easy to carry out the operation of very slow forward or slow reverse.
- the clutch device (108) comprises a first clutch (108A) engaged during the slow reverse and a second clutch (108B) engaged during the slow forward And a wheel speed sensor (170) for detecting the wheel speed of the vehicle (1), and the control device (106) is based on the wheel speed with the slow speed mode selected.

- エンジン(100)の駆動力を所定の減速比で減速して車両(1)の駆動輪(WR)に伝達する変速機(40)と、前記エンジン(100)と変速機(40)の間で駆動力を断接するクラッチ装置(108)と、前記変速機(40)および前記クラッチ装置(108)を制御する制御装置(106)とを有する鞍乗型車両の駆動力制御装置において、
前記制御装置(106)は、走行状態に応じて前記変速機(40)の減速比を変更する通常走行モードと、前記変速機(40)を所定操作により固定減速比での微速前進および微速後進を可能とする微速モードとの間を選択可能に構成されており、
前記制御装置(106)は、前記微速モードが選択され、かつ前記所定操作が行われていない場合には、前記車両(1)が前後進しないように前記クラッチ装置(108)を半クラッチ状態に保持することを特徴とする鞍乗型車両の駆動力制御装置。 - 前記クラッチ装置(108)は、前記微速後進の際に締結される第1クラッチ(108A)と、前記微速前進の際に締結される第2クラッチ(108B)とからなるツインクラッチであり、
前記車両(1)のピッチング方向の傾斜を検出する登坂角度検出手段(139)を備え、
前記傾斜が上り坂の場合は前記第2クラッチ(108B)を半クラッチ状態に保持し、前記傾斜が下り坂の場合は前記第1クラッチ(108A)を半クラッチ状態に保持することを特徴とする請求項1に記載の鞍乗型車両の駆動力制御装置。 - 前記制御装置(106)は、前記ピッチング方向の傾斜が少ない平地であると判断された場合、前記第1クラッチ(108A)および第2クラッチ(108B)の両方を半クラッチ状態に保持することを特徴とする請求項2に記載の鞍乗型車両の駆動力制御装置。
- 前記微速モードにおいて微速前進または微速後進を行う所定の操作は、前記変速機(40)のシフトアップおよびシフトダウンの変速を指示するシフト操作手段(64,66)の操作であることを特徴とする請求項1ないし3のいずれかに記載の鞍乗型車両の駆動力制御装置。
- 前記変速機(40)は、複数の前進ギヤおよび単一の後進ギヤを含み、
前記微速モードが選択されている際に、前記第1クラッチ(108A)を接続して前記後進ギヤで駆動力を伝達すると共に、前記第2クラッチ(108B)を接続して前記複数の前進ギヤのうちの2速ギヤで駆動力を伝達するように構成されていることを特徴とする請求項4に記載の鞍乗型車両の駆動力制御装置。 - 前記通常走行モードから前記微速モードに切り替えるための微速モード切り替えスイッチ(67)を具備することを特徴とする請求項1ないし5のいずれかに記載の鞍乗型車両の駆動力制御装置。
- 前記車両(1)の駆動輪(WR)および他の車輪(WF)に制動力を生じさせるブレーキ装置(63,69)を備え、
前記制御装置(106)は、前記微速モードが選択されている間に前記ブレーキ装置(63,69)の操作力が所定値以上になると、前記操作力が減少しても所定時間の間ブレーキ制動力を保持することを特徴とする請求項1ないし6のいずれかに記載の鞍乗型車両の駆動力制御装置。 - 前記ブレーキ制動力が保持されている間に、前記微速前進および前記微速後進のための所定操作が行われると、前記駆動輪(WR)に駆動力が伝達され始めた後に、前記制動力を解除することを特徴とする請求項7に記載の鞍乗型車両の駆動力制御装置。
- 前記エンジン(100)の出力を調整するスロットル装置(102)は、少なくともスロットルグリップの回動角度情報に応じてスロットル弁をモータ(144)で駆動するスロットルバイワイヤ方式であり、
前記微速モードの選択中は、前記エンジン(100)の出力に対する前記スロットルグリップの回動操作が無効となることを特徴とする請求項1ないし8のいずれかに記載の鞍乗型車両の駆動力制御装置。 - 前記クラッチ装置(108)は、前記微速後進の際に締結される第1クラッチ(108A)と、前記微速前進の際に締結される第2クラッチ(108B)とからなるツインクラッチであり、
前記車両(1)の車輪速度を検出する車輪速度センサ(170)を備え、
前記制御装置(106)は、前記微速モードが選択された状態での前記車輪速度に基づいて前記車両(1)のピッチング方向に傾斜があることを判断し、
前記傾斜が上り坂の場合は前記第2クラッチ(108B)を半クラッチ状態に保持し、前記傾斜が下り坂の場合は前記第1クラッチ(108A)を半クラッチ状態に保持することを特徴とする請求項1に記載の鞍乗型車両の駆動力制御装置。
