摘要:
A battery housing for a traction battery. The battery housing includes a first housing shell, and a second housing shell which can be connected to the first housing shell, for bounding an interior formed to receive at least one battery module. The first housing shell has a first collar which runs at least partially around the first housing shell. The second housing shell has a second collar which runs at least partially around the second housing shell. The battery housing has at least one connection element having two pressure limbs. The at least one connection element engages around the first collar and the second collar and to clamp by the two pressure limbs of the connection element exerting a normal force on the first collar and on the second collar. The first collar and/or the second collar has at least one first latching means. The connection element has at least one second latching means. The connection element can be latched to the first collar and/or the second collar by means of the first latching means and the second latching means.

An electrical system for an automotive vehicle includes a low voltage battery having a low voltage, a high voltage battery having a high voltage, and a DC-to-DC converter coupled to the low voltage battery and the high voltage battery. A controller controls a conversion of the low voltage to a high voltage through the DC-to-DC converter and controls the charging of the high voltage battery with the high voltage. The controller monitors a state of charge of the high voltage battery, compares the state of charge to a predetermined state of charge and generates an indicator when the state of charge reaches the predetermined state of charge.

The tire deflation device (30) includes a rail member (34) having a support portion (38) and a piercing portion (40). The piercing portion (40) of the rail member (34) extends toward a tire (20) and is located between the tire (20) and a protected portion (40) of the automotive vehicle (10). The piercing portion (40) is intended to puncture and deflate the tire (20) when a crush zone (18) is deformed inwardly so as to force the tire (20) into the piercing portion (40) of the rail member (34). The support portion (38) has at least one anchor member (32) fixedly attached thereto for securely mounting the rail member (34) to a side mount (12) of the automotive vehicle (10) within a middle rigid zone (14) thereof.
摘要:
A method of adaptively controlling the speed of a reference vehicle having a controller is provided. The method includes detecting a target vehicle, setting a reference vehicle headway distance indicative of a desired separation between the reference vehicle and the target vehicle, receiving at the reference vehicle, target vehicle data from the target vehicle, and modifying the reference vehicle headway distance as a function of the target vehicle data. The target vehicle data includes a braking capability value (BCT) of the target vehicle. A braking capability value (BCR) for the reference vehicle is also determined. If the BCR or BCT indicates a less than optimum braking capability for the reference or target vehicles, the reference vehicle headway distance is increased. In this way, the relative braking capability of the two vehicles is used to modify the reference vehicle headway distance during adaptive cruise control operation.
摘要:
A hydrogen fueled reciprocating spark ignition engine includes a fuel system for providing gaseous hydrogen to the cylinders of the engine and a lean NOx trap coupled to the engine for treating the engine's exhaust. An EGR system provides recirculated exhaust gas to the engine, and a controller operates the fuel system and EGR system during periodic purging of the lean NOx trap such that the engine is operated fuel rich, with the mass of EGR approximating 40%-80% of the mass of air and fuel.
摘要:
A system and method for controlling an electric motor using real time predictions of motor capability based on thermal modeling and measurements is provided. The invention includes controllers for receiving and processing system input signals, strategies for: determining a maximum energy amount that can be put into the motor before the motor reaches a maximum allowable temperature; determining a motor power assist value that the motor can provide in a predetermined period of time before the motor reaches the maximum allowable temperature; determining a battery power assist value; determining a maximum power assist value that is the minimum of the motor power assist value and the battery power assist value; and comparing the maximum power assist value to a driver demand signal. Strategy outputs can be sent to a vehicle system controller and/or a power assist gauge.
