  • Development of hybrid drive vehicle with flexible regulation of torque of assistant drive
    Valentan, Bogdan
    Pollution and desire for new kind of vehicles led us to a development of a new contemporary vehicle with two driving sources (hybrid drive). Vehicle, which is capable of two person transport, is ... mainly driven by a human power and backed-up by an electro-motor. Suitably regulated such a concept may bring a revolution in the city and suburbs transportation. The core of the document present a flexible torque regulation of the back-up electro-motor based on a measuring of a load applied to the pedal, which is modelled in Matlab/SIMULINK. Steering mechanism is realized by Bowden cables, which are lead over a two rope wheels with changing radius to enable different steering angles between inner and outer wheel. Weather protection is enabled by aerodynamic bodywork of vehicle. The whole vehicle presents a modern and ecologically acceptable transport solution. At the same time this is an instrument of simultaneous recreation as well as a mean of physical condition improvement.
