Inventor: ANGELL CHARLES A
IPC: H01M10/36
Filed: 2001-06-16
Abstract: Novel chain polymers comprising weakly basic anionic moieties chemically bound into a polyether backbone at controllable anionic separations are presented. Preferred polymers comprise orthoborate anions capped with dibasic acid residues, preferably oxalato or malonato acid residues. The conductivity of these polymers is found to be high relative to that of most conventional salt-in-polymer electrolytes. The conductivity at high temperatures and wide electrochemical window make these materials especially suitable as electrolytes for rechargeable lithium batteries.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for regulating the brake power on the wheels (VR, HR) of a single-track vehicle, using a brake system comprising a wheel brake circuit (RBKVR) having a pressure modulator (RGCVR) for regulating the brake pressure pVR on a front wheel brake (54); a wheel brake circuit (RBKHR) having a pressure modulator (RGVHR) for regulating the brake pressure pHR on a rear wheel brake (54'); at least one control circuit (STKHBZ, STKFBZ) for controlling both pressure modulators (RGVVR, RGVHR); and a control unit (94). According to the invention, the brake pressure pHRnominal in the brake circuit (RBKHR) for the rear wheel (HR) is determined according to the brake pressure pVRactual detected in the brake circuit (RBKVR) for the front wheel (VR)-taking an ideal brake power distribution characteristic stored in the control unit (94) as a basis-and is regulated for the rear wheel (HR) by means of the pressure modulator (RGVVR) in the wheel brake circuit (RBKHR). As a result, a method is provided which enables the best possible use of the grip between the tyres and the ground in an automated manner during a brake process.

Abstract: The present invention determines a longitudinal wheel speed of an individual wheel from an angular rate signal from a wheel rotation sensor. Vehicle suspension information or operating characteristics are input to a suspension system mathematical model to determine instantaneous rolling radius, taking into account changes in tire rolling radius resulting from vertical motion of the road surface. Improved accuracy of wheel speed permits less severe filtering of wheel speeds in detecting wheel slip and/or modified speed and acceleration thresholds in slip control.

Abstract: A connector C 0  is provided for a 42V battery B, a pair
of housings of this connector C 0  are connected or disconnected
by rotation of an arm, and when the arm rotates at a predetermined
angle in a separating direction, a contact 24 separates from
a contact of the arm. An ECU detects this separation and actuates
a cut-off relay R thereby to shut off a power supply circuit
S. Therefore, the connector C 0  is disconnected in a state where
the electric current is not flowing, so that arc is not produced.
Further, sub-connectors C 1  to C n  can adopt mechanism in which
connection and disconnection are performed by the rotation of
the arm similarly to the main connector C 0  thereby to cut off
the electric current before the disconnection.
