BATTERY ELECTRIC VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240208359 titled 'BATTERY ELECTRIC VEHICLE
The patent application describes a battery electric vehicle with an accelerator pedal, a shifter, a mode selector, and a control device. The mode selector chooses between EV mode and MT mode for the electric motor based on the driver's selection.
- The mode selector allows the driver to choose between EV mode and MT mode for the electric motor.
- The control device manages the electric motor in the selected mode when the battery state of charge (SOC) is within a predetermined range.
- If the SOC is outside the predetermined range, the control device operates the electric motor in EV mode regardless of the mode selected by the driver.
- This system ensures optimal performance and efficiency based on the battery's state of charge.
Potential Applications: - Electric vehicle manufacturing - Automotive technology development
Problems Solved: - Optimizing electric motor performance based on battery SOC - Enhancing driver control and efficiency in electric vehicles
Benefits: - Improved energy management in electric vehicles - Enhanced driving experience for users
Commercial Applications: Electric vehicle manufacturers can utilize this technology to enhance the performance and efficiency of their vehicles, appealing to environmentally conscious consumers.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the mode selector impact the overall performance of the electric vehicle? 2. What are the potential implications of using EV mode regardless of the driver's selection when the battery SOC is out of range?
Original Abstract Submitted
a battery electric vehicle includes an accelerator pedal, a shifter, a mode selector, and a control device. the mode selector selects either an ev mode or an mt mode as a control mode for an electric motor according to a mode selection operation by a driver. when the soc of a battery is within a predetermined range, the control device controls the electric motor in the control mode selected by the mode selector. when the soc is out of the predetermined range, the control device controls the electric motor in the ev mode regardless of the control mode selected by the mode selector.
