DRIVE SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OPERATING A DRIVE SYSTEM
A drive system. The drive system includes a first partial drive system and a second partial drive system, each having at least one electric machine, at least one control electronics for controlling the at least one electric machine, an energy source and an energy source control unit for monitoring and controlling the energy source. The drive system includes a first drive control unit and a second drive control unit, the first drive control unit communicating with both the first partial drive system and the second partial drive system and being designed to control and monitor the drive system, and the second drive control unit communicating with both the first partial drive system and with the second partial drive system and being designed to assume the control and the monitoring of the drive system in a fault state of the first drive control unit.
Redundancy control device for aircraft
The redundancy control device includes three controllers that output status signals, a majority voting circuit to which a first voltage or a second voltage is supplied as an output signal through an output line of each controller, a switch provided in each output line, a voltage supply unit provided for each output line to supply the second voltage to the output line when the first voltage is lost, a latch circuit provided for each output line to latch the second voltage when the second voltage is supplied thereto and continue to output the second voltage, a comparison circuit provided for each controller to output a comparison signal based on a comparison of the status signals, and a switch control unit provided for each switch to outputs a switch signal to the switch in response to the comparison signal from the comparison circuit.
Redundant vehicle power distribution system
A power distribution system is provided that ensures that a car is able to operate safely in an autonomous mode. The system includes multiple power rails, including a pair of safety critical power rails. Associated with each safety critical power rail is a safety switch, vehicle sensors (e.g., vehicle location and obstacle sensors), vehicle actuators (e.g., braking and steering actuators) and an autonomous control unit. If a fault is detected during vehicle initialization or general operation, the safety switch which detected the fault opens and that particular power rail is decoupled from the general purpose power rail as well as the remaining safety critical power rail. The remaining safety critical power rail is then able to provide power to a sufficient number of sensors, actuators and controllers to allow the car to safely and autonomously complete an emergency stop on the side of the road.
MOTOR CONTROL SYSTEM AND VEHICLE
A motor control system and a vehicle. The motor control system includes: a vehicle control unit, configured to obtain vehicle state data and output an instruction for cutting off motor output torque when determining an unexpected power transmission failure according to the vehicle state data; and a motor controller unit, connected to the vehicle control unit, and configured to stop outputting motor control torque in response to the instruction for cutting off motor output torque.
System and method for providing ASIL D fail operational power systems in automated vehicle applications
A vehicle control unit (e.g., a control unit for an automobile) receives feedback from an intelligent voltage/current sensor and a DC/DC controller. The DC/DC controller comprises a first switch for controlling power from a primary power source (e.g., low voltage power supplied from a high voltage battery). The intelligent voltage/current sensor senses power output from the primary power source. The vehicle control unit processes feedback from the intelligent voltage/current sensor and/or the DC/DC controller to determine if a failure has occurred in the primary power source. In response to determining the failure in the primary power source, the vehicle control unit disables the power from the primary power source using a second switch (e.g., a switch in a relay).
BATTERY PACK FOR ELECTRIC VERTICAL TAKE-OFF AND LANDING AIRCRAFT
Certain aspects relate to a battery pack for electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft. Exemplary battery pack includes a first pouch cell, a second pouch cell, at least a sensor, where the at least a sensor is configured to sense battery pack data and transmit the battery pack data to a data storage system, and a vent configured to vent the ejecta from the first pouch cell. In some embodiments, battery pack may be configured to power at least a propulsor component.
