BATTERY ELECTRIC VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240300505 titled 'BATTERY ELECTRIC VEHICLE
The abstract describes a patent application for a battery electric vehicle that includes a motor for driving, a mode selector for choosing driving modes, and a controller to control the motor based on the selected driving mode.
- The battery electric vehicle can be driven in a motor driving mode where torque is output from the motor to drive the vehicle.
- The vehicle can also be driven in a gear shift driving mode where the torque output mimics the behavior of torque in an engine vehicle based on the driver's shift operation.
- The controller allows for switching between the motor driving mode and the gear shift driving mode when the steering wheel is gripped.
Potential Applications: - Electric vehicle industry - Automotive technology sector - Sustainable transportation solutions
Problems Solved: - Providing different driving modes for electric vehicles - Enhancing the driving experience for electric vehicle users - Mimicking the behavior of traditional engine vehicles in electric vehicles
Benefits: - Improved driving flexibility - Enhanced user experience - Increased efficiency in electric vehicle operation
Commercial Applications: Title: "Innovative Driving Modes for Battery Electric Vehicles" This technology could be utilized by electric vehicle manufacturers to offer unique driving experiences to consumers, potentially increasing market competitiveness and attracting environmentally conscious customers.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the gear shift driving mode in a battery electric vehicle differ from a traditional engine vehicle? - The gear shift driving mode in a battery electric vehicle mimics the behavior of torque output in an engine vehicle based on the driver's shift operation, providing a familiar driving experience. 2. What are the potential implications of allowing drivers to switch between motor driving mode and gear shift driving mode in a battery electric vehicle? - Allowing drivers to switch between these modes provides flexibility and customization in driving experience, catering to different preferences and driving conditions.
Original Abstract Submitted
a battery electric vehicle includes a motor configured to output torque for driving to a drive shaft, a mode selector configured to select a driving mode from a plurality of driving modes based on driver's operation including a motor driving mode that the battery electric vehicle is driven by outputting a required torque required for driving from the motor and a gear shift driving mode that the battery electric vehicle is driven with behavior of torque output from the motor as behavior of the torque in an engine vehicle including an engine and a transmission based on the driver's shift operation, and a controller programmed to control the motor such that the battery electric vehicle drives in the driving mode selected by the mode selector. the controller is programmed to permit switching between the motor driving mode and the gear shift driving mode when a steering wheel is gripped.
