Patent Images
1. A method of determining conditions of a hybrid drive train of a motor vehicle via an actuating device of a hybrid control for the motor vehicle, the method comprising the steps of:
- determining, as a first condition parameter, whether or not a first clutch that is located between a combustion engine and an electrical engine is engaged;
determining, as a second condition parameter, whether or not the combustion engine is operating;
determining, as a third condition parameter, whether or not a second clutch that is located between the electrical engine and a transmission is engaged; and
determining actual conditions (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) of the hybrid drive train from the first, the second and the third condition parameters of the hybrid control.

Abstract
A method for determining conditions of a hybrid drive train of a motor vehicle. The method determines, the actual conditions (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) of the drive train from predetermined condition parameters of the actuating device of the hybrid control. The condition parameters include whether or not a flow of force is present between a combustion engine (VM) and an electrical engine (EM), whether or not the combustion engine (VM) is operating, and whether or not a flow of force to the output is present.

9. A method of determining an actual condition of hybrid drive train a motor vehicle, the hybrid drive train including a combustion engine, an electrical motor, a transmission and first and second clutches, the first clutch being located, with respect to a flow of power, between the combustion engine and the electrical motor and the second clutch being located, with respect to the flow of power, between the electrical motor and the transmission, the method comprising the steps of:
-
determining, as a first condition parameter, an engagement condition of the first clutch; determining, as a second condition parameter, an operating condition of the combustion engine; determining, as a third condition parameter, an engagement condition of the second clutch; and considering the first, the second and the third condition parameters of the first clutch, the combustion engine and the second clutch, respectively, to determine the actual condition of the hybrid drive train. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11)
