Title:
ACTIVE SERIES HYBRID INTEGRATED ELECTRIC VEHICLE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/126243
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
In some embodiments, a system can include an integrated wheel module coupled to a rim of a tire and to a structure of a vehicle. The integrated wheel module can include control electronics and a power supply. The integrated wheel module may further include a plurality of electric motors, including a first motor responsive to the control electronics and configured to rotate the tire about an axis; a second motor responsive to the control electronics and configured to turn the tire about a pivot point; a third motor responsive to the control electronics and configured to continuously and dynamically adjust a camber of the tire; a fourth motor responsive to the control electronics and configured to continuously and dynamically adjust a suspension associated with the tire; and a fifth motor configured to adjust the suspension spring in accordance with the load, conditions and optimum performance desired.
