SHIFT CONTROL METHOD FOR A HYBRID VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17875651 titled 'SHIFT CONTROL METHOD FOR A HYBRID VEHICLE
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a shift control method for a hybrid vehicle that involves determining if a kick-down shift request has been made and identifying specific conditions for increasing input torque. The method compares the input torque increase amount with a reference value and controls the driving motor or auxiliary motor to output the torque increase accordingly.
- The method determines if a kick-down shift request has been made.
- It identifies predetermined conditions for increasing input torque.
- The method compares the input torque increase amount with a reference value.
- It controls the driving motor or auxiliary motor to output the torque increase based on the comparison.
Potential Applications
- Hybrid vehicles
- Automotive industry
- Transmission systems
Problems Solved
- Efficiently controlling shift changes in hybrid vehicles
- Optimizing torque output based on specific conditions
Benefits
- Improved performance and efficiency in hybrid vehicles
- Enhanced control over torque output during shift changes
- Better utilization of the driving motor and auxiliary motor
Original Abstract Submitted
A shift control method for a hybrid vehicle includes: determining whether a request for a kick-down shift has been made; identifying predetermined input torque increase conditions when the kick-down shift request is made; comparing a predetermined input torque increase amount with a predetermined reference value when all of the input torque increase conditions are satisfied; and controlling a driving motor or an auxiliary motor to additionally output the input torque increase amount, based on the result of comparing the input torque increase amount with the reference value.
