Abstract
A vehicle controlling method is for a vehicle which comprises an engine, a driving motor connected to the engine, a first clutch connected between the engine and the driving motor, a start motor connected to the engine, a transmission connected to the driving motor, and a second clutch connected between the driving motor and the transmission.
Claims18
A vehicle controlling method for a vehicle which comprises an engine, a driving motor connected to the engine, a first clutch connected between the engine and the driving motor, a start motor connected to the engine, a transmission connected to the driving motor, and a second clutch connected between the driving motor and the transmission, the method comprising:
- determining switching to a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) mode while the vehicle is driven in an electric vehicle (EV) mode;
- and
- performing one of a synchronized connection control or a launch slip control when the switching to the HEV mode is determined,
- wherein the launch slip control comprises:
- a control to perform one of a first slip control or a second slip control based on a determination whether an available torque of the driving motor is equal to or greater than a first predetermined value;
- and
- a synchronization control to synchronize a speed of the engine and a speed of the driving motor,
- wherein the first predetermined value is a value determined based on a driving request torque, wherein the first slip control is performed in response to a determination that the available torque of the driving motor is greater than the first predetermined value, and wherein the second slip control is performed in response to a determination that the available torque of the driving motor is equal to or less than the first predetermined value.
A vehicle, comprising:
- an engine;
- a driving motor connected to the engine;
- a dog clutch connected between the engine and the driving motor;
- a start motor connected to the engine;
- a transmission comprising a friction clutch connected to the driving motor and configured to change a speed of the driving motor;
- a vehicle controller comprising at least one processor and a computer-readable recording medium storing one or more computer program codes which causes by being executed by the at least processor the vehicle controller to:
- determine switching to a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) mode while the vehicle is driven in an electric vehicle (EV) mode;
- and
- perform one of a synchronized connection control or a launch slip control when the switching to the HEV mode is determined, wherein the launch slip control comprises:
- a control to perform one of a first slip control or a second slip control according to whether an available torque of the driving motor is equal to or greater than a first predetermined value;
- and
- a synchronization control to synchronize a speed of the engine and a speed of the driving motor.
