AI Technical Summary
Existing powertrain systems for multi-purpose vehicles struggle to meet the needs of drivers and passengers in a compact configuration, especially when driving on narrow roads where power and ride comfort are insufficient, and the assembly of the engine and transmission is constrained by interference from other components.
The engine and transmission are arranged longitudinally, combined with a steel belt continuously variable transmission and a differential. The power transmission components are supported by a frame assembly. The engine is positioned in front of or behind the transmission and is connected to the ground contact component via a driveshaft. The driveshaft is operably connected to the transmission and differential to achieve power transmission.
It achieves the power and driving needs of multi-purpose vehicles in a compact configuration, adapts to various terrains, improves vehicle flexibility and power transmission efficiency, reduces vehicle width, and is suitable for off-road driving.
