Embodiment Construction

[0026] One way to meet customers' different vehicle needs in a flexible and cost-effective manner is to use modular vehicles assembled from a set of modules. Such modular vehicles, referred to herein as modular vehicles, are typically assembled at the customer's site, so the customer purchases a set of modules from the manufacturer. Modular vehicles can be easily assembled and reassembled, for example, to perform specific tasks.

[0027] A modular vehicle is assembled, for example, from a functional module for performing a specific function, such as carrying a load, and a drive module for driving the vehicle. Each drive module typically includes a separate propulsion system and a separate energy storage device, such as a battery. In order for the modules to work together as a modular vehicle, the control of the drive modules must be coordinated in some way.

[0028] In order to assemble and disassemble a modular vehicle, it may be necessary for each drive module to shuttle i...

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to techniques in the context of vehicles, and to a method for controlling energy levels of energy storage devices in a vehicle comprising a plurality of drive modules. According to a first aspect, the disclosure relates to a method for controlling energy levels of energy storage devices in a vehicle comprising a plurality of drive modules, wherein each drive module comprises an individual propulsion system operable to propel the vehicle and a chargeable energy storage device arranged to supply energy to the propulsion system. The method comprises determining energy levels of the chargeable energy storage devices of the plurality of drive modules, controlling operation of the individual drive modules, while operating the vehicle, based on the determined energy levels. The disclosure also relates to a corresponding control device, to a vehicle comprising the control device, to a computer program and a computer-readable medium.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to technology in the context of a vehicle and to a method for controlling the energy level of an energy storage device in a vehicle comprising a plurality of drive modules. The present disclosure also relates to a corresponding control device, a vehicle comprising the control device, a computer program and a computer readable medium. Background technique [0002] Today's vehicles are often built for a specific purpose, for example, buses are built to transport people and trucks are built to transport goods. These vehicles are usually factory built and fully assembled, or they can be partially factory assembled and finished at the coachbuilder. Once the vehicle is assembled, the vehicle is ready for a specific purpose. So a bus can be used as a bus and a garbage truck can be used as a garbage truck. Different vehicles thus need to be used for different purposes, which can require a large fleet and thus become very expen...
