ABSTRACT:
In a control device for a small-scale series-type hybrid automobile using an electric motor and an internal combustion engine as power sources, energy generated by the drive motor is applied to a motor/generator through a generator inverter so that the motor/generator drives the internal combustion engine to apply a braking force thereto. In this way, energy generated during regenerative braking which cannot be absorbed by a saturated battery (for example, when the vehicle is travelling downhill) can be used to help brake the vehicle.
