Abstract
A tire slip control device comprises: an engine; a torque converter connected to an output shaft of the engine; a transmission for transmitting a traveling driving force from the torque converter to an axle; an engine rotation detector; an output rotation detector for the transmission; and a control for restricting the traveling driving force, wherein the control for restricting the traveling driving force judges that slip has occurred and restricts the traveling driving force when a rate of change of the ratio of an output speed of the transmission to an engine speed per unit time exceeds a first predetermined value in an initial condition in which the output speed of the transmission is a second predetermined value or smaller in a high-speed rotation area of a predetermined engine speed or larger.
