evTrailer - Autarkic electric drive system for semitrailer
evTrailer - Autarkes elektrisches Antriebssystem für LKW Trailer
Today, commercial vehicle traffic makes a major contribution to the consumption of fossil fuels and the generation of CO₂ emissions. Within the context of the ev(=electric vehicle)Trailer project, an innovative drive system has been developed for commercial vehicle trailers in particular. The unique feature lies in the completely autarkic electric drive of the trailer, which enables the compatibility with any tractor unit. The support of the tractor unit by the trailer's own drive with integrated brake energy utilization (recuperation) has enormous potential. First and foremost is the reduction of fuel consumption and emission of CO₂. Due to the electric single-wheel drive, it is also possible to apply different drive or braking torques to the wheels and thus influence the driving stability of the tractor-trailer (torque vectoring). Furthermore, an evTrailer offers the possibility to be moved without a tractor unit by using its own electrical drives during manoeuvring (self-sufficient driving) and also to drive around bends. The evTrailer has been developed and realized within the context of a joint project funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi).
