5 results about "Electronic throttle control" patented technology

Electronic throttle control (ETC) is an automobile technology which electronically "connects" the accelerator pedal to the throttle, replacing a mechanical linkage. A typical ETC system consists of three major components: (i) an accelerator pedal module (ideally with two or more independent sensors), (ii) a throttle valve that can be opened and closed by an electric motor (sometimes referred to as an electric or electronic throttle body (ETB)), and (iii) a powertrain or engine control module (PCM or ECM). The ECM is a type of electronic control unit (ECU), which is an embedded system that employs software to determine the required throttle position by calculations from data measured by other sensors, including the accelerator pedal position sensors, engine speed sensor, vehicle speed sensor, and cruise control switches. The electric motor is then used to open the throttle valve to the desired angle via a closed-loop control algorithm within the ECM.

Electronic throttle control method and electronic throttle control device

ActiveUS12523183B2Electrical controlMachines/enginesControl signalElectronic throttle control
An electronic throttle control method by which an electronic control unit (ECU) controls opening and closing of a throttle while providing a control signal on a basis of an input data signal may include calculating, via the ECU, i) an engine revolution speed deviation from a difference between an engine revolution speed and an engine revolution speed command, ii) an engine revolution acceleration on a basis of the engine revolution speed, iii) a proportional torque from a product of the engine revolution speed deviation and a proportional torque coefficient, and iv) an integral torque by multiplying an integral of a product of the engine revolution speed deviation and an integral torque coefficient by a forgetting coefficient. The method may further include providing, via the ECU, the control signal for the throttle using a sum of the proportional torque and the integral torque as a torque command value.

Controller and method to assist quick gearshift in a vehicle using gear position sensor

ActiveUS12716486B2Electronic throttle controlElectronic throttle
The vehicle comprises a Gearbox Position Sensor (GPS). The controller is adapted to receive input signals from the GPS, compare a value of the input signal with a predetermined threshold value, and activate a shift assist functionality based on the comparison. The value of the input signal is any one selected from a group comprising voltage and an angle. Further, the shift assist functionality comprises adjustment of engine operation by at least one of Electronic Throttle Control, a fuel injection control, ignition control. The controller is in connection with the Electronic Throttle Body, a fuel injector and an ignition system respectively for the adjustment / control of the engine operation. A robust solution of achieving quick shift functionality is achieved by using the existing GPS of the vehicle. The implementation cost of new and existing vehicle is reduced.

Electronic throttle control pedal assembly

ActiveUS12508902B2Controlling membersVehicle sub-unit featuresElectronic throttle controlControl theory
An electronic throttle control pedal assembly includes a housing having a friction generating surface, a pedal arm, a spring carrier, and at least one spring. The pedal arm includes a hub portion and a friction generating member. The friction generating member has a lobe connected to a cross member and is positioned on a side surface of the hub portion. The cross member extends within the hub portion. The spring carrier has a friction generating portion. As the pedal arm is depressed, a portion of the spring carrier engages the friction generating portion against the cross member positioned within the hub aperture and pivotally engages a portion of the lobe of the friction generating member against the friction generating surface of the housing thereby creating at least two independent friction generating surfaces to create a hysteresis proportional to the depression of the pedal arm.
