  • Publication number: 20110233384
    Abstract: The invention provides a glare reduction apparatus disposed in an object illuminated by a light source. The glare reduction device includes an electro-optical device covering a surface of the object. A light sensing device is disposed on a first fixed point of the object. A controller is electrically coupled to the electro-optical device and the light sensing device, wherein the controller calculates a corresponding light sensing position of the electro-optical device according to a light sensing position of the light sensing device which directly receives light from the light source, to reduce the light transmittivity of the corresponding light sensing position of the electro-optical device to generate a light shielding region. The light shielding region attenuates the light from the light source to a second fixed point of the object.

  • Patent number: 7844375
    Abstract: A vehicle hybrid power system is provided according to the present invention. The hybrid power system is characterized by applying the concept of minimum equivalent fuel consumption, and then simulating equivalent fuel consumptions based on respective energy consumption or increase of motor and generator of a motor vehicle, and also defining simulated equivalent fuel consumption formula and making a list of system state parameters, system control parameters, and system negative load parameters, thereby obtaining simulated equivalent fuel consumption multidimensional data by entering the system parameters derived from a discretization/transformation process in the defined simulated equivalent fuel consumption formula; wherein, the simulated equivalent fuel consumption multidimensional data are revised to comprise subsystems, such as system engine, motor, generator, and others to determine a system control strategy of holistic optimization, thereby achieving the objective of saving energy.

  • Publication number: 20100133027
    Abstract: A series-parallel coupling control method and system for a hybrid driver are suitable for a hybrid power vehicle. The hybrid driver is used to produce a driving force to drive a load. The hybrid driver includes a first power generation unit, a second power generation unit, and a main controller. The main controller selectively controls the system to drive the load in a series power coupling mode or a parallel power coupling mode. The main controller switches between the series coupling mode and the parallel coupling mode by using rotation speed compensation or torque/power compensation. Therefore, the driven load will not suffer from sudden thrust or jerk.

  • Publication number: 20080156550
    Abstract: A hybrid vehicle is provided with an engine, a starter generator motor, a traction motor, an automatic manual transmission system, a battery, an automatic-switching clutch, and a control unit assembly. The starter generator motor is coupled and synchronously rotates with the engine for starting the engine and serving as an assistant power. The automatic manual transmission system is coupled with the traction motor and performs a gear-shifting/speed changing by controlling the rotation speed of the starter generator motor and the traction motor. The automatic-switching clutch is coupled between the starter generator motor and the automatic manual transmission system to make them be engaged/disengaged so as to switch the power type. The hybrid vehicle control device gives a signal to the torque/rotation speed control device to control the automatic-switching clutch to engage/disengage the engine and the traction motor according to the running state of the vehicle.
