Electric vehicle and balancing of an electric vehicle
A method for balancing an electric vehicle is provided, in which a controller of an electric vehicle variably adjusts the disposition of a bracket with battery modules of a traction battery of the electric vehicle situated in the bracket relative to a chassis of the electric vehicle. An electric vehicle is also provided.
1 . A method for balancing an electric vehicle using a controller of the electric vehicle, the method comprising:
variably adjusting the disposition of a bracket with battery modules of a traction battery of the electric vehicle situated in the bracket relative to a chassis of the electric vehicle;
detecting, by a human-machine interface of the electric vehicle, an input of a passenger of the electric vehicle and sending a demand signal dependent on the detected input to the controller; and
receiving, by the controller, the demand signal that was sent and adjusting the disposition of the bracket depending on the received demand signal,
wherein variably adjusting the disposition of the bracket includes a first operation in which the entirety of the bracket and all battery modules situated therein are moved relative to the chassis, and
wherein variably adjusting the disposition of the bracket includes winding up of the bracket with the battery modules situated in the bracket about a winding axis.
2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the human-machine interface detects the disposition as the input or wherein the human-machine interface detects a type of operation of the electric vehicle determining the disposition as the input.
3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the variable adjustment involves a shifting of the bracket in an x-direction of the electric vehicle, in a y-direction of the electric vehicle, and/or in a z-direction of the electric vehicle.
4 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the variable adjustment involves a swiveling of the bracket about an x-axis extending in an x-direction of the electric vehicle, about a y-axis extending in a y-direction of the electric vehicle, and/or about a z-axis extending in a z-direction of the electric vehicle.
5 . The method according to claim 1 , the winding axis extends in the y-direction of the electric vehicle.
6 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the controller activates an actuator and the activated actuator moves the bracket relative to the chassis.
7 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the controller adjusts the disposition of the bracket depending on the acceleration of the electric vehicle and/or in order to influence a trajectory of the electric vehicle.
8 . An electric vehicle, comprising:
a chassis;
a bracket mounted on the chassis and movable relative to the chassis;
battery modules of a traction battery situated in the bracket;
a controller for variable adjusting of a disposition of the bracket relative to the chassis; and
a human-machine interface functionally connected to the controller for detecting an input of a passenger of the electric vehicle and configured to carry out a method comprising:
variably adjusting the disposition of the bracket relative to the chassis by detecting, by the human-machine interface of the electric vehicle, the input of the passenger of the electric vehicle and sending a demand signal dependent on the detected input to the controller, and receiving, by the controller, the demand signal that was sent and adjusting the disposition of the bracket depending on the received demand signal,
wherein variably adjusting the disposition of the bracket includes a first operation in which the entirety of the bracket and all battery modules situated therein are moved relative to the chassis, and
wherein variably adjusting of the disposition of the bracket includes winding up of the bracket with the battery modules situated in the bracket about a winding axis.
9 . The electric vehicle according to claim 8 , being configured as a passenger car or a motorcycle.
10 . The electric vehicle according to claim 8 , wherein the human-machine interface is configured as an infotainment system of the electric vehicle or as a mobile terminal device connected to the electric vehicle.
