[0003] According to this conventional source, front and rear wheel drive force distribution control systems which control the drive force distribution to the front wheels by the magnitude of the clutch engagement force, and the difference which controls the differential limiting torque by the magnitude of the clutch engagement force. In vehicles equipped with both the dynamic limit torque control system and the clutch engaging force used in both systems, when one of them is increased, the other is also increased to effectively suppress the drive wheel slip and to improve the stack escapeability. Techniques for improving and accelerating on low friction coefficient roads are shown.

However, in such a conventional front-rear wheel and left-right wheel driving force distribution integrated control device, when an abnormality occurs in each system, control is performed by each fail-safe system. Since it is a device that interrupts the front and rear wheel drive force distribution control system, for example, when only the front and rear wheel drive force distribution control system becomes abnormal, the control by the front and rear wheel drive force distribution control system is interrupted and the left and right wheel drive force distribution control system stops the control. If it continues, the steer characteristic will become over or under side, and there will be a problem that the turning performance thereafter will be greatly affected.

That is, in a system in which the front and rear wheel drive force distribution control system distributes a large amount of the drive force to the main drive shaft (the rear wheel drive shaft if the rear wheel drive base, the front wheel drive shaft if the front wheel drive base), Suspending the front and rear wheel drive force distribution control,
If the left and right wheel drive force distribution control system that limits the differential of the main drive shaft continues to control, a vehicle equipped with a rear wheel drive-based front and rear wheel drive force distribution control system will experience significant oversteer. A vehicle equipped with a front-wheel drive-based front-rear wheel drive force distribution control system causes a significant understeer.

Therefore, in a vehicle equipped with both the front and rear wheels and the left and right wheels driving force distribution control system, if an abnormality occurs in one of the control systems, there is a plan to cancel the control by both control systems. .

However, in this case, when only the left and right wheel drive force distribution control system becomes abnormal, if the control by the front and rear wheel drive force distribution control system is released, high drive performance and steer characteristics with suppressed drive wheel slip are neutralized. Or, it loses the significance of mounting the front and rear wheel drive force distribution control system that can obtain high steering stability by maintaining weak understeer.
