Intelligent clutch (i-Clutch) system for an automobile vehicle

A method for optimizing kinetic energy for an automobile, the method comprising:

• dynamically receiving, at a controller [210], one or more parameters from at least one of a braking pressure sensor [202], a speed sensor [204] and an acceleration pressure sensor of the automobile;
• continuously determining, by the controller [210], an operating condition of the automobile based on the received one or more parameters;
• generating, by the controller [210], a trigger based on the determined operating condition of the automobile to activate an intelligent clutch (i-clutch) [212];
• disconnecting, by the i-clutch [212], a prime mover and a driving shaft of the automobile to optimize kinetic energy of the automobile, by disconnecting a transmission and the driving shaft of the automobile;
• and
• generating, by the controller [210], a second trigger based on the determined operating condition of the automobile to deactivate the i-clutch [212].

An automobile comprising:

• an intelligent clutch (i-clutch) system further comprising:
• connected to at least one of a braking pressure sensor [202], a speed sensor [204] and an acceleration pressure sensor [206] of the automobile, said controller [210] configured to:
• dynamically receive one or more parameters from at least one of the braking pressure sensor [202], the speed sensor [204] and the acceleration pressure sensor [206],
• continuously determine an operating condition of the automobile based on the received one or more parameters, and
• generate a trigger based on the determined operating condition of the automobile to activate an intelligent clutch (i-clutch) [212];
• and
• the intelligent clutch (i-clutch) [212] connected to the controller [210], said i-clutch configured to disconnect a prime mover and a driving shaft of the automobile, by disconnecting a transmission and the driving shaft of the automobile,
• wherein the controller [210] is further configured to generate a second trigger based on the determined operating condition of the automobile to deactivate the i-clutch [212].
