Allan Roy Gale,Michael W. Degner +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a method for recharging an electric storage battery in the charging system of an electric vehicle from an electric utility power grid includes determining the length of time required to recharge the battery, determining the desired time when the recharge is to be completed, transmitting to the electric power utility the length and desired time, and recharging the battery from the utility grid during a period when projected load demand is lower than peak demand and ending no later than a desired time.
Patent
Parallel hybrid powertrain for an automotive vehicle
TL;DR: In this article, a hybrid powertrain for an automotive vehicle comprising an internal combustion engine and transmission assembly providing a first selectably shiftable geared torque flow path to vehicle traction wheels and an electric motor-generator unit defining a second geared torqueflow path that is located between the output of the first geared flow path and the traction wheels.
Patent
Input voltage based system and method for charging a vehicle battery
TL;DR: In this paper, an automotive vehicle power system includes a battery charger having an input and output, which receives electrical energy via the input when the input is electrically connected with an electrical energy source.
Patent
Propulsion system for a motor vehicle using a bidirectional energy converter
