Device for Controlling an Individual Wheel Drive in Electrified Two-Axle Motor Vehicles

Abstract

An apparatus for controlling an individual wheel drive in a two-axle motor vehicle having at least one electrified vehicle axle on which an electric drive motor is associated with each wheel is provided. The apparatus includes an electronic controller and a coupling which can be controlled by the electronic controller between the electric drive motors, wherein the electronic controller and the coupling are configured in such a way that (i) given at least one first specified condition in a first actuating mode, only one defined electric drive motor drives both wheels, with the other electric drive motor being stopped, and (ii) given at least one second specified condition in a second actuating mode, both electric drive motors drive one wheel each, separately from one another.
