MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641050064 A) filed by MLR Institute Of Technology, Hyderabad, Telangana, on April 20, for 'integrated control and safety systems for 4-wheeler evs.'
Inventor(s) include Mr. N. Karthik; Dr. T. Bhargava Ramu; Ms. Saini Indrani; and Mr. Ch. Bharath.
The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The increased rate of adoption of electric vehicles has created a greater requirement for advanced control, instrumentation, and protection systems to ensure the safe, efficient, and reliable operation of the electric vehicle. This project deals with the design and implementation of control instrumentation and protection systems for a four-wheeler electric vehicle. The importance of the coordinated operation of the different subsystems, such as the Battery Management System, Vehicle Control Unit, motor controller, and protection circuits, has been emphasized. Different types of electrical and electronic sensors are used to measure the vital parameters such as voltage, current, temperature, speed, and SOC, and the decision-making process can be completed. The control instrumentation, and protection system for a 4-wheeler electric vehicle (EV) is an important aspect that ensures the efficient operation, monitoring, and protection of the electric vehicle, as well as the safety of the driver. The control system of the electric vehicle deals with the control of the flow of power from the battery to the electric motor. The instrumentation system ensures the measurement of the vital parameters, such as the battery, electric motor, and the speed of the electric vehicle, and the decision-making process can be completed. The safety system includes safety features such as overcurrent protection, thermal management, shutdown, and fault detection. This integration of safety systems is used to protect the vehicle from damage and to provide safety to the passengers. This is a key feature that is expected to be integrated into future vehicles to provide the best performance, reliability, and safety of the EV, making them a key feature of future electric vehicles."
