APPARATUS FOR MANAGEMENT A DRIVING DISTANCE OF AN ELECTRIC VEHICLE AND METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240123863 titled 'APPARATUS FOR MANAGEMENT A DRIVING DISTANCE OF AN ELECTRIC VEHICLE AND METHOD THEREOF
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a mileage management apparatus for an electric vehicle that can determine if the vehicle can complete a trip based on the state of charge of the high voltage battery, limit power consumption when necessary, and provide heat to the user by adjusting the load voltage based on indoor temperature decrease.
- Processor determines if vehicle can complete trip based on battery charge
- Limits power consumption if trip cannot be completed
- Adjusts load voltage based on indoor temperature decrease to provide heat to user
Potential Applications
The technology can be applied in electric vehicles to optimize mileage management and improve user comfort by providing heat as needed.
Problems Solved
1. Range anxiety in electric vehicles is reduced by accurately determining if a trip can be completed based on battery charge. 2. User comfort is improved by adjusting load voltage to provide heat in response to indoor temperature decrease.
Benefits
1. Increased efficiency in electric vehicle usage. 2. Enhanced user experience through temperature control. 3. Potential energy savings by optimizing power consumption.
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimizing mileage management in electric vehicles for improved user experience and efficiency.
Possible Prior Art
There are existing mileage management systems in electric vehicles, but the specific combination of features described in this patent application may be novel.
Unanswered Questions
How does the processor determine the degree of decrease in indoor temperature to adjust the load voltage for heat provision?
The abstract does not provide specific details on the method used by the processor to determine the degree of decrease in indoor temperature for adjusting load voltage.
What type of interface device is used to display the possibility of completing the trip?
The abstract mentions an interface device connected to the processor, but does not specify the type of device used for displaying the trip completion possibility.
Original Abstract Submitted
a mileage management apparatus for an electric vehicle, includes a processor configured to determine whether the vehicle can complete a travel to a destination thereof by use of a mileage based on a state of charge (soc) value of a high voltage battery, to limit power consumption of a load having a voltage higher than a predetermined voltage when the processor concludes that the vehicle cannot complete the travel, and to drive a load having a voltage lower than the predetermined voltage depending on a degree of a decrease in an indoor temperature of the vehicle to provide heat to a user, and an interface device communicatively connected to the processor and configured to display whether the completion of the travel is possible.
