Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of vehicle technology, and specifically relates to a hybrid vehicle IPU, which is particularly suitable for a series hybrid vehicle with hydraulic drive, compressed air, and air conditioning refrigeration function requirements. Background Art

[0002] Traditional fuel vehicles use internal combustion engines as their power source. When the vehicle requires hydraulic drive (such as hydraulic power steering), compressed air, air conditioning and other refrigeration functions, the hydraulic pump, air compressor, air conditioning compressor and other equipment are mainly driven directly by the engine. The specific implementation method is that the free end and flywheel end of the engine are equipped with a gear system or a pulley system for outputting the engine crankshaft power and adjusting the speed, and the gear system or pulley system transmits the power to the hydraulic pump, air compressor and air conditioning compressor. The advantage of this method is that the power of the internal combustion engine is directly transmitted to the hydraulic pump, air compressor and air conditioning compressor through mechanical transmission, with high transmission efficiency and high system integration.

[0003] With the development of technology, hybrid vehicles use both electric motors and engines as hybrid devices. Through energy storage devices such as power batteries and energy distribution and drive control systems, the hybrid devices are coordinated to achieve high performance and low fuel consumption characteristics of the vehicle. As an important configuration of hybrid power systems, series hybrid power has been widely used in heavy trucks, buses, military vehicles and other fields.

[0004] When a series hybrid vehicle is running in a pure electric state, the hydraulic pump, air compressor, air conditioning compressor and other equipment cannot be directly driven by the engine. At present, the solution of integrating the corresponding equipment with an independent motor is generally adopted to solve this problem, that is, the hydraulic pump, air compressor and air conditioning compressor directly driven by the engine of traditional fuel vehicles are replaced by independent electric hydraulic pumps, electric air compressors and electric air conditioning compressors.

[0005] The electric hydraulic pump, electric air compressor, electric air conditioning compressor and other equipment currently used in series hybrid vehicles are independent of the engine and driven by the motor. They can realize the functions of hydraulic steering assistance, braking power, refrigeration energy and other functions in pure electric driving, but there are also some shortcomings, including:

[0006] 1. The separately installed electric hydraulic pump, electric air compressor, electric air-conditioning compressor and other equipment are heavier than the hydraulic pump, air compressor and air-conditioning compressor systems directly driven by the engine of traditional fuel vehicles, which has an adverse effect on the curb weight of the vehicle.

[0007] 2. Compared with the hydraulic pumps, air compressors, and air-conditioning compressors that are directly driven by the engine of traditional fuel vehicles, separately installed electric hydraulic pumps, electric air compressors, and electric air-conditioning compressors have added multiple motors and motor drive controllers. For vehicles with stricter vehicle space requirements, they occupy other effective space inside the vehicle.

[0008] 3. Separately installed electric hydraulic pumps, electric air compressors, electric air-conditioning compressors and other equipment use high-voltage electric drive. Compared with direct engine drive, there is a loss of electric energy conversion efficiency in power generation efficiency and inverter efficiency, and energy consumption increases. Summary of the invention

[0009] The main purpose of the present invention is to solve the problem raised in the background technology: when a series hybrid vehicle is running in a pure electric state, the hydraulic pump, air compressor, air conditioning compressor and other equipment cannot be directly driven by the engine. The current series hybrid vehicle is independent of the engine and driven by a motor, which can realize the functions of hydraulic steering assistance, braking power, refrigeration energy and other functions in a pure electric state, but there are also some shortcomings: adding multiple motors and motor drive controllers, increasing weight, occupying effective space, and increasing energy consumption.

[0010] The present invention provides a hybrid vehicle IPU (Integrated Power Unit), which, in addition to the functions of a conventional hybrid vehicle (IPU) integrated power unit, also has auxiliary functions such as providing hydraulic energy, compressed air energy, and refrigerant compression.

[0011] Compared with hybrid vehicles equipped with traditional IPU and separately provided electric hydraulic pump, electric air compressor, electric air conditioning compressor and other equipment, the present invention has the advantages of light weight, small size, high efficiency and high reliability.

[0012] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solutions.

[0013] A hybrid vehicle IPU (integrated power unit) comprises an engine, a main motor, a clutch, a front transmission gear set, a planetary gear set, an auxiliary motor, a rear transmission gear set, a hydraulic pump, an air compressor and an air conditioning compressor; the engine and the main motor are directly connected through a mechanical device; the main motor, the clutch, the front transmission gear set, the planetary gear set, the auxiliary motor and the rear transmission gear set are connected in series in sequence; the front end of the clutch is connected to the main motor, and the rear end is connected to the front transmission gear set, which is used to transmit and cut off the power between the main motor and the subsequent part; the front transmission gear set is composed of a front transmission central gear, a front output gear 1, and a front output gear 2, and the front transmission central gear (41) drives the front output gear 1 and the front output gear 2 to transmit the speed-adjusted power to the hydraulic pump and the air compressor respectively. The planetary gear set is composed of a sun gear, a planetary gear, a planetary frame and a gear ring, wherein the gear ring is fixed. The planetary gear set is connected to the auxiliary motor through the sun gear, and is connected to the front transmission gear set through the planetary frame, which is used to match the speed between the main motor and the auxiliary motor. The auxiliary motor is composed of a stator and a rotor. The front end of the rotor is connected to the planetary gear set, and the rear end is connected to the rear transmission gear set. The rear transmission gear set is composed of a rear output gear 1 and a rear output gear 2, and is used to transmit the power for adjusting the speed to the air-conditioning compressor.

[0014] The air conditioning compressor consists of the air conditioning compressor body and the electromagnetic clutch.

[0015] The main structure of the hybrid vehicle IPU is that, in addition to the engine (1) and the main motor (2), it also includes another motor - an auxiliary motor (4).

[0016] The combination of the engine and the main motor plays the role of IPU power generation in a conventional series hybrid vehicle. The engine is directly connected to the main motor. After the engine is reverse-driven by the main motor to start and run, it drags the main motor to generate electricity. The main motor includes two power input and output interfaces at the front and rear ends. The front interface is directly connected to the engine in the aforementioned manner, and the rear interface is connected to the auxiliary motor through a transmission mechanism such as a clutch. The front and rear interfaces of the main motor are rigidly integrated with the rotor of the main motor. When the clutch is in the disengaged state, the main motor and the auxiliary motor operate independently without affecting each other; when the clutch is in the engaged state, the main motor and the auxiliary motor operate in parallel through the transmission mechanism between the two. The transmission mechanism between the main motor and the auxiliary motor includes a clutch, a front transmission gear set and a planetary gear. The sun gear of the planetary gear set is connected to the motor rotor, the ring gear is fixed, and the planetary gear frame is connected to the center gear of the front transmission gear set. The front transmission center gear of the front transmission gear set is meshed and connected with the front output gear 1 and the front output gear 2, and is directly connected to the clutch. When the clutch is in the disengaged state, when the auxiliary motor works independently, the aforementioned planetary gear set reduces the speed of the auxiliary motor, and transmits the power after matching the speed to the hydraulic pump and the air compressor through the output gear. When the clutch is engaged, the planetary gearbox transmits power to the hydraulic pump and air compressor, and also establishes a transmission speed ratio between the main motor and the auxiliary motor when the motor is in parallel operation. The speed change output mechanism at the rear end of the auxiliary motor is connected to the air conditioning compressor through a gear change.

[0017] It has multiple output interfaces, which are respectively connected to a hydraulic pump (8), an air compressor (9), and an air conditioning compressor (10).

[0018] The engine is a diesel engine.

[0019] The main motor and the auxiliary motor are connected to their respective controllers through wires, and the controller is connected to the high-voltage power distribution device, the power battery pack, and the external power supply device through wires.

[0020] The main motor and the auxiliary motor are permanent magnet synchronous motors.

[0021] The advantages of the present invention are as follows: the engine plus the main motor, the auxiliary motor and the transmission mechanism form an IPU theme, the hydraulic pump, the air compressor and the air-conditioning compressor are connected to the IPU theme together, and a common motor drive is used. Through the engagement and disengagement of the clutch and the different working modes of the main motor and the auxiliary motor, the system efficiency can be improved, the system weight can be reduced, and the system size can be reduced. At the same time, through multi-mode operation, the main motor and the auxiliary motor can back up each other and have higher reliability.

[0022] The following describes the working mode of the IPU of a hybrid vehicle.

[0023] Mode 1 (pure electric driving): When the series hybrid vehicle is in pure electric driving, the power required for the vehicle to drive is all provided by the power battery. At this time, the IPU clutch of the hybrid vehicle is in a disengaged state according to the controller command, the engine and the main motor are both in a stopped state, and the auxiliary motor starts running by converting the power of the power battery through the controller. In the pure electric driving state of the vehicle, the hydraulic pump, air compressor, and air conditioning compressor are driven to keep the vehicle in a normal driving state.

[0024] Mode 2 (hybrid driving): When a series hybrid vehicle is in hybrid driving, the power required for the vehicle to drive is provided by the IPU and the power battery. At this time, the IPU clutch of the hybrid vehicle is in an engaged state according to the controller command, the engine and the main motor are in a running and generating state, the auxiliary motor is not working, and the main motor is dragged through the clutch and is in an idling state. At this time, the power is directly transmitted from the engine to the hydraulic pump, air compressor, and air conditioning compressor through a mechanical transmission device, with high mechanical efficiency.

[0025] Mode 3 (main motor failure): When the main motor fails and cannot operate, the IPU clutch of the hybrid vehicle is in an engaged state according to the controller command. The auxiliary motor not only drives the hydraulic pump, air compressor, and air-conditioning compressor, but also serves as a backup for the main motor. On the one hand, the auxiliary motor can transmit power to the engine crankshaft through the planetary gear set, front drive gear set, clutch, and main motor rotor to start the engine. On the other hand, after the engine starts running, the power is driven by the main motor rotor, clutch, front drive gear set, and planetary gear set to drive the auxiliary motor to generate electricity, providing electrical energy for vehicle driving and operation within a certain range, thereby improving system reliability.

[0026] Mode 4 (auxiliary motor failure): When the auxiliary motor fails and cannot operate, the IPU clutch of the hybrid vehicle is in an engaged state according to the controller command, and the engine power is transmitted through the main motor rotor and the clutch to drag the auxiliary motor, and transmits power to the steering pump, air compressor, and air-conditioning compressor to ensure the normal operation of vehicle-related functions and improve system reliability.

[0027] Mode 5 (Parking Power Generation): When the vehicle is parked and needs to output electric energy, the IPU clutch of the hybrid vehicle is in a disengaged state according to the controller command, and the engine drives the main motor to generate electricity, which is converted by the vehicle's high-voltage power distribution system and then output to the outside. In this mode, the auxiliary motor does not work. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
