Abstract
An auxiliary vehicle hydraulic pressure source device includes a hydraulic pressure pump pressurizing and discharging fluid, an accumulator accumulating fluid pressurized and discharged by the hydraulic pressure pump, a hydraulic pressure detector continuously detecting the accumulator hydraulic pressure, and a controller controlling operation of the hydraulic pressure pump based on a comparison of the detection result of the hydraulic pressure detector with a predetermined target pressure. The controller includes a pressure difference calculator calculating the pressure difference between the detection result of the hydraulic pressure detector and the predetermined target pressure, a pressure change calculator calculating a pressure change of the accumulator hydraulic pressure per unit time based on the detection result of the hydraulic pressure detector, and an adjusting device adjusting operation of fluid accumulated in the accumulator by operation of the hydraulic pressure pump based on the pressure difference and the pressure change.
