Abstract:
Systems and methods for charging an electric bus having a charging interface on its roof may include determining that an approaching bus is supposed to be charged at the charging station, lowering the charging head of the charging station to land on the roof of the bus, and moving the bus with the charge head on its roof to engage the charging head with the charging interface.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a power system including: a plurality of Electronic Control Units (ECUs) configured to transfer power to a motor connected to an output terminal; a temperature section determination unit configured to determine whether first temperature information input from a first temperature sensor which senses the temperature generated from a first ECU corresponds to a normal section, a warning section, or a danger section, which are set in advance; a temperature comparison determining unit configured to determine whether the first temperature information is less than or equal to second temperature information input from a second temperature sensor which senses the temperature generated from a second ECU, in a case in which it is determined that the first temperature information corresponds to the warning section; and a controller configured to control the first ECU so that the first ECU reduces the power in a case in which it is determined that the first temperature information is less than or equal to the second temperature information, and to control the first ECU and the second ECU so that the first ECU does not transfer the power and the second ECU transfers the power in a case in which it is determined that the first temperature information is greater than the second temperature information.

Abstract:
A method according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, activating hazard lights of an electrified vehicle in response to a high voltage battery disconnect event.
Abstract:
An off-road vehicle has four wheels and side-by-side driver and passenger seats. At least two of the wheels are driven by an electric motor powered by batteries disposed in the vehicle.
Abstract:
A vehicle control device controls torque of a drive motor such that rotation of the drive motor is transferred to rear drive wheels of a vehicle via a drive unit that includes a speed reducer including a plurality of gears rotatably supported by bearings. The vehicle control device sets different values as torque restriction values for torque to be generated by the drive motor when the vehicle is driven forward and when the vehicle is driven rearward.
Abstract:
In accordance with one embodiment, a system is provided for safely conveying passengers indoors using a steerable motorized passenger cart, the maximum speed of which is limited based on its location within the interior space. In particular embodiments, the present invention further includes an interchangeable vehicle skin affixed to the motorized passenger cart.
Abstract:
A charge depleting mode control apparatus of a plug-in hybrid vehicle includes a driving information detector, a mode determining unit, a shift-speed determining unit, a shift determining unit. The driving information detector detects driving information of a vehicle. The mode determining unit determines whether a charge depleting (CD) mode is entered by using a state of charge (SOC) of a battery provided from the driving information detector. The shift-speed determining unit determines a target shift-speed when the mode determining unit determines to enter the CD mode. The shift determining unit determines whether to change the shift-speed determined by the shift-speed determining unit. The shift-speed is determined by using transmission efficiency and motor efficiency when the plug-in hybrid vehicle drives in the CD mode, such that fuel consumption is reduced and performance is improved.
