  • Patent number: 12466253
    Abstract: According to an embodiment, it is an electrical motor arrangement comprising a first rotation element for providing a first rotational movement, and a second rotation element for providing a second rotational movement, and wherein in a first configuration the first rotation element is configured as a stator and the second rotation element is configured as a rotor, and wherein in a second configuration the first rotation element is configured as the rotor and the second rotation element is configured as the stator of the electrical motor arrangement, wherein the electrical motor arrangement is configured to operate alternately in the first configuration and the second configuration; wherein at least one of the first rotational movement and the second rotational movement is provided to a transmission arrangement, and wherein the electrical motor arrangement is configured for providing a rotational movement for a transmission of a vehicle.

  • Patent number: 12384341
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for freeing at least one locked wheel of a vehicle. One step of the method relates to identifying a locking scenario comprising the identification of the at least one locked wheel. A further method step is selecting a wheel freeing strategy being suitable for the identified locking scenario. Another step is directed to applying the selected wheel freeing strategy. Furthermore, the disclosure is directed to a propulsion system for a vehicle having at least one wheel. The propulsion system comprises at least one propulsion actuator. Moreover, at least one wheel speed sensor is provided, the wheel speed sensor being configured for detecting the rotational speed of the at least one wheel. Additionally, the propulsion system has at least one brake unit being configured for braking the at least one wheel and a control unit being configured for performing the above method.

  • Publication number: 20240400037
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to controlling a deceleration request in a one-pedal-driving mode of a vehicle. The deceleration request can comprise a deceleration level being a function of a position of a drive pedal of the vehicle. A corresponding method can comprise receiving, by a system comprising a processor, a vehicle stability information, the vehicle stability information being indicative for driving stability of the vehicle, comparing, by the system, the vehicle stability information to a vehicle stability information threshold, and triggering, by the system, a reduction of the deceleration level of the deceleration request if the vehicle stability information is determined to exceed the vehicle stability information threshold.

  • Publication number: 20240246517
    Abstract: According to an embodiment, it is a method comprising receiving a slip information, wherein the slip information describes a longitudinal slip of the respective wheel of a vehicle, comparing the slip information of each wheel to a predefined wheel slip threshold; and triggering a reduction of a deceleration level of a deceleration request when the slip information of at least one wheel exceeds the predefined wheel slip threshold; and wherein the method is operable for controlling the deceleration request in a one-pedal-driving mode of the vehicle, and wherein the deceleration request relates to the deceleration level being a function of a position of a drive pedal.
