HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLE AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING ENGINE STOP FOR THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18101420 titled 'HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLE AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING ENGINE STOP FOR THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a method for controlling engine stop in a hybrid electric vehicle by applying negative torque to the motor under certain conditions and predicting and preventing reverse rotation of the engine.
- The method involves determining if specific conditions are met, applying negative torque to the motor, predicting reverse rotation of the engine, and applying feedback torque to prevent reverse rotation.
- By applying negative torque to the motor, the method helps in controlling the engine stop process efficiently.
- Predicting and preventing reverse rotation of the engine ensures the engine operates smoothly and prevents potential damage.
- The feedback torque applied helps in maintaining the target behavior of the engine during the engine stop process.
Potential Applications
This technology can be applied in hybrid electric vehicles to improve engine stop control and prevent reverse rotation, leading to enhanced efficiency and performance.
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of reverse rotation of the engine during engine stop in hybrid electric vehicles, ensuring smooth operation and preventing potential damage.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved engine stop control, prevention of reverse rotation, enhanced efficiency, and better performance in hybrid electric vehicles.
Potential Commercial Applications
One potential commercial application of this technology could be in the automotive industry for the development of advanced engine stop systems in hybrid electric vehicles.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be existing engine stop systems in hybrid electric vehicles that may not effectively prevent reverse rotation of the engine during the stop process.
What are the specific conditions that need to be met for applying negative torque to the motor in the method described in the patent application?
The specific conditions that need to be met for applying negative torque to the motor are the satisfaction of both a first condition and a second condition.
How does the method predict the occurrence of reverse rotation of the engine, and what action is taken to prevent it?
The method predicts the occurrence of reverse rotation of the engine and applies feedback torque to the motor to satisfy the target behavior of the engine, preventing the reverse rotation from happening.
Original Abstract Submitted
Disclosed is a hybrid electric vehicle and a method of controlling an engine stop for the vehicle. The method includes: determining whether a first condition and a second condition is satisfied; applying a negative torque to the motor when the first condition and the second condition are satisfied; predicting occurrence of reverse rotation of the engine; and applying a feedback torque for satisfying the target behavior of the engine to the motor when the occurrence of the reverse rotation is predicted.
