Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of automobiles, and in particular relates to a longitudinal multi-mode four-wheel drive system and a hybrid electric vehicle. Background Art

[0002] Energy saving and environmental protection of automobiles are the key research contents of automobile enterprises and scientific research institutions. The purpose is to develop a series of new energy vehicles on the premise of meeting the practicality of automobiles, and hybrid vehicles occupy an important position in new energy vehicles. At present, there are two main driving modes of hybrid vehicles that can meet the four-wheel drive system:

[0003] One is that the engine and the motor are coupled through a mechanical structure, and the power is output through the differential and transmitted to the drive wheels on both sides. This type of drive method uses a new power system instead of a pure fuel engine, and the rest of the structure is basically the same as the traditional four-wheel drive system. This system transmits the power output of the drive system to the front axle differential of the front drive axle and the rear axle differential of the rear drive axle through a central differential or transfer case, and the front and rear axle differentials then transmit the power to the drive wheels on both sides;

[0004] Another form of drive is to separate the engine and the motor, so that the engine drives the front wheels or the rear wheels, and the motor drives the other wheels in a distributed drive mode. The transmission method of this system allows the engine and the motor to independently output power to the drive wheels on both sides through the differentials of the front and rear axles.

[0005] In the first driving mode, the engine and motor are coupled and the concentrated power output cannot achieve independent control of the front and rear drive wheels, and cannot switch modes according to specific circumstances, making it impossible to control the dynamic stability of the entire vehicle, which also limits the improvement of the vehicle's economy and power.

[0006] The second driving form is to adopt a distributed layout of the engine and the motor, which makes it difficult to achieve synchronous control of the front and rear drive wheels. In addition, the performance requirements for the engine and the motor are relatively stringent. Under this driving form, once one of the front and rear drive wheels is trapped, the other drive wheel can only use the power generated by the engine or the motor alone, which will greatly reduce the power output capacity of the four-wheel drive system. Summary of the invention

[0007] The present invention proposes a longitudinal multi-mode four-wheel drive system, which can realize dynamic distribution control of the driving torque of the front and rear axles of a hybrid vehicle.

[0069] The engine is connected to the auxiliary motor through a speed-increasing clutch, and can provide power for the vehicle to travel, and can also generate electricity through the auxiliary motor, thus being a dual power source.

[0070] The main motor is connected to the input shaft I of the multi-mode four-wheel drive transmission. It can be used as a power source to drive the vehicle alone, or it can be used together with the engine and the auxiliary motor to drive the vehicle as a power source of the hybrid power system.

[0071] The auxiliary motor is a disc motor, which is connected to the speed-increasing clutch and the input shaft II of the multi-mode four-wheel drive transmission. It can be used as one of the power sources for the vehicle to generate electricity under the drive of the engine and replenish the energy of the battery; it can also be used as a starting motor to start the engine.

[0072] The speed-increasing clutch is connected to the engine and the auxiliary motor, which can increase the engine speed and thus increase the output shaft speed in the high-efficiency area of ​​the engine, and further improve the coupling efficiency between the engine and the auxiliary motor, and can also serve the function of power interruption between the engine and the auxiliary motor.

[0073] The front and rear drive axle inter-wheel differentials are responsible for distributing the power transmitted by the multi-mode four-wheel drive transmission to the left and right drive wheels, and balancing the driving torque of the left and right drive wheels.

[0074] Specifically, the speed increasing clutch 1 is as follows: Figure 3As shown, it includes a caliper rocker arm 301, a caliper floating spring 302, a caliper housing 303, an adjusting bolt 304, a torsion spring 305, a secondary motor connecting shaft 306, an inner rotating hub 307, an increasing clutch outer gear ring 308, an increasing clutch planetary carrier 309, an increasing clutch planetary gear 310, a sun gear brake disc 311, a increasing clutch sun gear 312, an engine connecting shaft 313, a friction plate 314 and a rotating push rod 315. The engine connecting shaft 313 is connected to the engine, the speed-increasing clutch planet carrier 309 is fixed on the engine connecting shaft 313, the speed-increasing clutch planetary gear 310 is fixed on the planet carrier 309 and meshes with the speed-increasing clutch sun gear 312 and the speed-increasing clutch outer gear ring 308 respectively; the speed-increasing clutch sun gear 312 and the sun gear brake disc 311 are fixed, and the sun gear brake disc 311 is placed between two friction plates 314; the torsion spring 305 is installed between the speed-increasing clutch outer gear ring 308 and the inner rotating hub 307; the caliper floating spring 302 is fixedly connected to the caliper housing 303 by bolts. When the caliper rocker arm 301 rotates, the rotating push rod 315 pushes the two friction plates 314 closer to each other, thereby tightening the sun gear brake disc 311, and the rotation of the sun gear brake disc 311 is restricted. The planetary gear train transmission system of the speed-increasing clutch has only one degree of freedom left. The speed-increasing clutch transmits power and realizes the speed-increasing effect. The power is input from the engine connecting shaft 313 and output through the planetary gear train, the torsion spring 305, the inner rotating hub 307 and the disc auxiliary motor connecting shaft 306. When the caliper rocker arm 301 rotates in the opposite direction, the sun gear brake disc 311 obtains a free state, and the speed-increasing clutch is in a power interruption state. When the speed-increasing clutch transmits power, the torsion spring plays a torsional damping role, which can reduce the torsional vibration generated when the engine is working and the instantaneous impact generated when the system starts or stops.

[0075] Specifically, the front and rear drive axle wheel differentials are symmetrical differentials such as Figure 4As shown, it includes: input shaft 401, driving bevel gear 402, output shaft I 403, angular contact bearing I 404, inter-wheel differential sun gear I 405, inter-wheel differential planetary carrier 406, driven bevel gear 407, angular contact bearing II 408, needle bearing 409, output shaft II 410, inter-wheel differential sun gear II 411, inter-wheel differential planetary gear 412 and angular contact bearing III 413. The inter-wheel differential housing is fixed on the front axle or rear axle half shaft through a flange. The power of the transmission assembly 3 is input by the input shaft 401, transmitted to the inter-wheel differential planetary carrier 406 through the active bevel gear 402 and the driven bevel gear 407, and then transmitted to the inter-wheel differential sun gear Ⅰ405 and the inter-wheel differential sun gear Ⅱ411 through the planetary gear 412; the inter-wheel differential sun gear Ⅰ405 and the inter-wheel differential sun gear Ⅱ411 transmit the power to the output shaft Ⅰ405 and the output shaft Ⅱ411 respectively; because the inter-wheel differential sun gear Ⅰ and the inter-wheel differential sun gear Ⅱ have the same size, the output shaft Ⅰ405 and the output shaft Ⅱ411 have equal torque output.

[0076] like Figure 5 As shown, there are two die-changing actuators 9, which include: an actuator drive motor 501, an angular displacement sensor 502, a worm gear 503, a rotating shaft 504, a shift finger 505, an actuator rod 506, a shift fork shift finger seat 507, and a worm 508. The worm gear 503 is meshed with the worm 508; the rotating shaft 504 is connected to the worm gear 503; the shift finger 505 is installed on the rotating shaft 504 and cooperates with the shift fork shift finger seat 507; the angular displacement sensor 502 is used to measure the rotation angle of the rotating shaft 504; the shift fork shift finger seat 507 slides on the actuator rod 506. The actuator drive motor 501 is connected to the worm 508 as a die-changing power source, and the power is transmitted to the rotating shaft 504 through the worm gear transmission principle, and the power is transmitted to the shift fork shift finger seat 507 through the shift finger 505, and then the shift fork shift finger seat 507 drives the synchronizer ring of the synchronizer in the transmission assembly to complete the gear shift.

[0077] The driving modes achieved by the longitudinal multi-mode four-wheel drive system are as follows:
