Abstract
Electric motor scooters are disclosed. In one embodiment, an electric motor scooter includes an electric drive, an electric battery, an actuation unit, and a control unit. The actuation unit may be brought in to one of a plurality of positions along an actuation distance, and the control unit is configured to selective a drive mode depending on the position of the actuation unit along the actuation distance. The drive modes include a recuperation mode, a coasting mode, an acceleration mode, and a boost mode. When in the recuperation mode, at least a portion of the energy generated in the electric drive may be delivered to the battery.
Claims13
An electric motor scooter comprising:
- an electric drive operable in a plurality of drive modes;
- an electric battery;
- an actuation unit configured to be brought into one of a plurality of different positions along an actuation distance;
- and
- a control unit, wherein the control unit is configured to determine a position of the actuation unit and select a drive mode from the plurality of drive modes depending on the position of the actuation unit, wherein the plurality of drive modes comprises a recuperation mode, a coasting mode, and an acceleration mode, wherein, when the recuperation mode is selected, the control unit is configured to control the electric drive so that energy generated in the electric drive is delivered, at least partially, to the battery, and wherein, when the coasting mode is selected, substantially no torque is applied by the electric drive.
