METHOD FOR DETECTING A BURNOUT STATE DURING WHICH DRIVEN WHEELS ARE CAUSED TO SPIN
First Claim
1. A method for detecting a burnout state during which driven wheels of a motor vehicle are caused to spin, the method comprising the steps of:
- detecting a rotational wheel speed of a first driven wheel and a rotational wheel speed of a second driven wheel and comparing the rotational wheel speed of a faster turning wheel of the first driven wheel and the second driven wheel with a first constant,detecting a vehicle speed and comparing the vehicle speed with a second constant, anddetecting an engine rotational speed and comparing the engine rotational speed with a third constant,wherein the burnout state is detected when the rotational wheel speed of the faster turning wheel is greater than the first constant, the vehicle speed is less than the second constant, and the engine rotational speed is greater than the third constant.

Abstract
A method for detecting a burnout state during which driven wheels of a motor vehicle are caused to spin is provided. The method includes detecting a rotational wheel speed of a first driven wheel and a rotational wheel speed of a second driven wheel and comparing the rotational wheel speed of the faster turning wheel with a first constant. A vehicle speed is detected and compared with a second constant. An engine rotational speed is detected and compared with a third constant. The burnout state is detected when the rotational wheel speed of the faster turning wheel is greater than the first constant, the vehicle speed is less than the second constant, and the engine rotational speed is greater than the third constant.
