  • Methods and systems for coordinated shaping of HEV base torque
    Patent number: 11845420
    Abstract: A vehicle operating method comprising generating a base torque reserve for an engine based on a position of an accelerator pedal and a position rate of change of the accelerator pedal, where the base torque reserve is an air reserve of the engine generated by the engine. The base torque reserve may further be generated based on one or more of a drive mode, a vehicle altitude, a battery state of charge (SOC), and a transmission gear, in at least one example.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 6, 2019
    Date of Patent: December 19, 2023
    Assignee: Ford Global Technologies, LLC
    Inventors: Maruthi Thiruninravur Ravichandran, Jason Meyer, Bhavesh Ravindra Paradkar, Rajit Johri, Jeffrey Allen Doering
  • Vehicle torque shaping
    Patent number: 11220177
    Abstract: A vehicle includes an actuator, a drivetrain configured to receive mechanical power from the actuator, an accelerator pedal position sensor configured to output a driver-demanded torque, and a controller in electric communication with the sensor and the actuator. The controller is programmed to receive the driver-demanded torque and output a shaped torque command to mitigate driveline disturbances caused by backlash and shaft compliance.
