Abstract

A control device includes a connecting member connected to a release operation member of a clutch device, an electric actuator for displacing the release operation member through the connecting member, a control unit configured to displace the release operation member by driving the electric actuator so as to change a clutch capacity of the clutch device, a first sensor configured to detect an operation amount of the electric actuator with respect to the connecting member, and a second sensor configured to detect a displacement amount of the release operation member. The control unit is configured to determine whether or not there is an intervention of the manual operation by the operator through the clutch operating element based on each detection result of the first sensor and the second sensor during an automatic control of the clutch device by the electric actuator.
