Abstract
A hydraulic pressurizer system () comprises a drive source (an engineand a motor generator), which drives a hybrid vehicle (), a mechanical oil pump (), which is driven by the drive source, an electrical motor (), which is activated by a 12V battery (), an electrical oil pump (), which is driven by the electrical motor (), and a control unit (), which activates the electrical motor (). The pressurizer further comprises a ratio-change mechanism (), which is activated by hydraulic oil supplied by the mechanical oil pump () and by the electrical oil pump () to establish a speed change ratio, at which the rotational driving force of the drive source is transmitted to wheels () with a rotational speed change. For executing a control for stopping the drive source, the control unit () executes a cleaning operation, which operates the electrical oil pump () for a predetermined time before the stopping of the drive source.
