METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DISPLAYING ENERGY FLOW IN HYBRID VEHICLE
First Claim
1. An apparatus for displaying energy flow in a hybrid vehicle including an engine module, a motor module, a battery module, and a vehicle driving wheel module, in which power shift between the modules is displayed in the form of graphics, the apparatus comprising:
- a graphics controller graphics-processing the respective modules into icons, receiving power shift information and breakdown state information from the respective modules, processing the power shift information into a line type of graphics indicating power shift between corresponding icons, and processing the breakdown state information into a text type of graphics indicating the breakdown state of each of the modules; and
a display unit simultaneously displaying the icons, the line type of graphics, and the text type of graphics on one screen according to control by the graphics controller.
