Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of track electric drive, and relates to a dual-motor coupling transmission device for a track vehicle. Background Art

[0002] The steering of traditional tracked vehicles is achieved through the speed difference of the tracks on both sides. The transmission system generates the speed difference of the tracks on both sides through the relevant clutch / brake, or hydraulic, electrical and other speed control elements. Unlike wheeled vehicles, the steering of tracked vehicles is power steering, which requires the power of the power system to overcome the steering resistance of the road. Difficult roads or small radius steering conditions require a large steering drive torque. In order to achieve the steering of tracked vehicles, the inner track needs to provide braking force and the outer track needs to provide driving force. When the vehicle speed is high, the inner track will generate a large steering return power (braking power); if this part of the braking power can be efficiently transferred to the outer track, it can greatly save the input power of the power source.

[0003] Electrification is the development trend of vehicle power transmission system. Tracked vehicles use motors for driving and steering, which can greatly improve maneuverability. The planetary gear mechanism is used as the coupling mechanism of the transmission system, and the design can realize a dual-output hybrid tracked vehicle transmission system, which can eliminate the complex steering device and realize independent and precise control of the tracks on both sides. By controlling the torque of the tracks on both sides, high-efficiency steering and center steering can be achieved.

[0004] The dual-motor drive system can realize flexible power distribution, which has become the development trend of electric drive systems.

Reverse driving condition: Both motors are in reverse driving state, when the brakes on the secondary sun gear of the deceleration are disengaged, the brakes on the two-speed outer planetary carriers are engaged, the two-speed planetary reduction mechanism is in low gear, and the vehicle travels at low speed; when the brakes on the secondary sun gear of the deceleration are engaged, the brakes on the two-speed outer planetary carriers are disengaged, the two-speed planetary reduction mechanism is in high gear, and the vehicle travels at high speed; Center steering condition: one side of the power output is the forward condition and the other side of the power output is the reverse driving condition. Both motors are in the driving state, but the speed directions of the two motors are opposite. Small radius steering condition: one side of the crawler mechanism is in braking state, the other side of the crawler mechanism is in driving state, the motor on the braking side is in generating state, the motor on the driving side is in driving state, in the two-speed planetary reduction mechanism on the driving side, when the brake on the secondary reduction sun gear is disengaged, the brake on the two-speed reduction outer planetary carrier is engaged, the two-speed planetary reduction mechanism is in low gear, and low-speed steering is performed; When the brake on the secondary sun gear of the reduction gear is engaged, the brake on the outer planetary carrier of the two-speed reduction gear is disengaged, and the two-speed planetary reduction mechanism is in high gear and turns at high speed.
