MUMBAI, India, Sept. 22 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202621082355 A) filed by St. Vincent Pallotti College Of Engineering And Technology on July 03, 2026, for A Dynamic Efficiency Lock System For Vehicles.
Inventors include Lambat, Avinash Bajirao; Melvin, Kris; Kulte, Anushree; Wande, Saurabh; and Pimple, Shruti.
The application for the patent was published on September 18, 2026, under issue no. 38/2026.
Abstract: The invention related to a dynamic efficiency lock system for vehicles, specifically the system designed for electric, hybrid, autonomous, and motorsport vehicles to enhance safety and protect critical components. The system continuously monitors throttle input, brake input, motor current, and system voltage using sensing circuits and comparator units. Outputs are processed by logic control circuitry to detect implausible or conflicting conditions, including simultaneous throttle and brake application beyond predefined thresholds. Upon detection, a relay driver actuates an electromechanical isolation relay connected to the motor power supply, disconnecting motor power within less than 6 milliseconds. The system operates reliably over an automotive voltage range of approximately 11 V to 14.5 V, incorporates adjustable threshold elements for calibration, and provides status indication for diagnostics. Implemented as a cost-effective modular hardware circuit independent of software delays, the invention ensures rapid fault response, improved vehicle safety, and simplified integration with existing safety architectures.
