Electronic control system for torque distribution in hybrid vehicles
First Claim
1. An electronic torque control and distribution system (11) for hybrid propulsion vehicles wherein the drive thrust is distributed between an electric engine (3) and an internal combustion engine (1) through a transmission system (2) delivering the torque of both engines (1, 3) to the vehicle wheels, being slaved to a control unit (4), characterized in that it comprises:
- a controller (12) incorporating a fuzzy logic processor (13) to predict through Soft Computing techniques the torque contributions of the electric engine (3) and of the thermal engine (1);
a virtual sensor (15) for estimating the vehicle polluting emissions;
said controller (12) and said sensor (15) being connected to said control unit (4).

Abstract
An electronic torque control and distribution system is provided for a hybrid propulsion vehicle. The drive thrust of the hybrid propulsion vehicle is distributed between an electric engine and an internal combustion engine through a transmission system. The transmission system delivers the torque of both engines to the vehicle wheels. The electronic torque control and distribution system is slaved to a control unit, and includes a controller for incorporating a fuzzy logic processor to predict through soft computing techniques the torque contributions of the electric engine and of the internal combustion engine. A sensor estimates the vehicle polluting emissions. The controller and the sensor are both connected to the control unit.
