The transmission belt 550 is driveably connected between the driving cone disc assembly 510 and the driven cone disc assembly 530. Depending on the rotational speed of the drive motor 100, the driving cone disc assembly 510 is driveably connected or disconnected from the input shaft 200, and the driven cone disc assembly 530 is driveably connected or disconnected from the output shaft 300. In this embodiment, the power transmission direction of the transmission belt 550 can be either from the active cone disc group 510 to the driven cone disc group 530, or from the driven cone disc group 530 to the active cone disc group 510.

Specifically, the first synchronizer 600 may be sleeved on the synchronization gear of the input shaft 200, and the first synchronizer 600 may move along the axial direction of the input shaft 200. In this embodiment, the first synchronizer 600 has three position states: L position, R position, and S position. When the first synchronizer 600 is in the L position, that is, when the first synchronizer 600 is located near the first-stage drive gear 420, the first synchronizer 600 can drively connect the input shaft 200 and the first-stage drive gear 420. When the first synchronizer 600 is in the R position, that is, when the first synchronizer 600 is located near the drive cone disk group 510, the first synchronizer 600 can drively connect the input shaft 200 and the drive cone disk group 510. When the first synchronizer 600 is in the S position, that is, when the first synchronizer 600 is in the middle position between the first stage drive gear 420 and the drive cone disk group 510, the first synchronizer 600 can be simultaneously disengaged from the first stage drive gear 420 and the drive cone disk group 510.
[0061] Please see Figure 2 In one embodiment of the present invention, the electric drive system further includes a second synchronizer 700. The second synchronizer 700 may be disposed on the intermediate shaft 410. Specifically, the second synchronizer 700 may be sleeved on the synchronization gear of the intermediate shaft 410, and the second synchronizer 700 may move along the axial direction of the intermediate shaft 410. In this embodiment, the second synchronizer 700 has two position states: L position and S position. When the second synchronizer 700 is in the L position, that is, the second synchronizer 700 is located close to the secondary drive gear 440, at this time, the second synchronizer 700 can drively connect the secondary drive gear 440 and the intermediate shaft 410.

[0063] Table 1 Working Mode Status Table of Electric Drive System
[0064]
[0065] Please refer to Table 1. Table 1 is the working mode status table of the electric drive system of the present invention. The present invention also provides a control method for the electric drive system, which can control the working states of each execution unit according to the real-time speed of the drive motor 100. For example, the position states of the first synchronizer 600, the second synchronizer 700, and the third synchronizer 800. In this embodiment, let the real-time speed of the drive motor 100 be V, and let V1 represent the speed of the drive motor 100 in the high-efficiency working area or the speed closest to the high-efficiency working area. When V = V1, the corresponding torque needs to be less than the maximum torque that the transmission belt 550 can withstand. Let V ∈ [0, V1*K] be the speed range of the low-speed mode, that is, the first range; V ∈ [V1*K, V1] be the speed range of the transition mode, that is, the second range; V ∈ [V1, ∞] be the speed range of the high-speed mode, that is, the third range; where K is a proportionality coefficient, and 0 < K < 1. K can be determined according to the actual calibration of the vehicle.
[0066] Please refer to Figure 3Table 1 shows that in one embodiment of the present invention, when the car is about to start, the first synchronizer 600 is in the L position, the second synchronizer 700 is in the L position, and the third synchronizer 800 is in the S position. At this time, the electric drive system is in low-speed mode. The low-speed mode can withstand the large torque output when the drive motor 100 starts. The output power path is from the rotor assembly 120 to the motor shaft 130, then sequentially through the input shaft 200, the first synchronizer 600, the first-stage drive gear 420, the first-stage driven gear 430, the intermediate shaft 410, the second synchronizer 700, the second-stage drive gear 440, the main reduction gear 450, the differential 310, and finally output by the first half-shaft 320 and the second half-shaft 330. When the speed V of the drive motor 100 is maintained in [0, V1*K], the electric drive system mode remains unchanged. When the speed V of the drive motor 100 drops to 0, the control ends. Figure 3 The dashed line in the low-to-medium speed mode represents the power transmission path.
[0067] Please see Figure 4 Table 1 shows that in one embodiment of the present invention, when the speed V of the drive motor 100 increases to [V1*K, V1], the first synchronizer 600 remains in the L position, the second synchronizer 700 remains in the L position, and the third synchronizer 800 is adjusted to the L position. At this time, the electric drive system is in transition mode. Since neither the active cone disc group 510 nor the driven cone disc group 530 is under load, the third synchronizer 800 can adjust its position without power interruption, i.e., engage to the left. The main power transmission path of the drive motor 100 is the same as in the low-speed mode, and the secondary power transmission path is from the differential 310 to the third synchronizer 800, and then sequentially through the driven cone disc group 530 and the transmission belt 550, driving the active cone disc group 510 to rotate. By cooperating with the main driver 520 and the driven driver 540 to adjust the transmission ratio of the transmission belt 550, the transmission ratio of the continuously variable transmission mechanism 500 and the reduction mechanism 400 are kept consistent. When the speed V of the drive motor 100 is maintained within [V1*K, V1], the electric drive system mode remains unchanged. When the speed V of the drive motor 100 drops to [0, V1*K], the electric drive system mode is adjusted to low-speed mode. Figure 4 The two dashed lines in the middle represent the primary and secondary power transmission paths of the transition mode, respectively.
[0068] Please see Figure 5Table 1 shows that in one embodiment of the present invention, when the speed V of the drive motor 100 increases to [V1, ∞], the first synchronizer 600 is adjusted to the R position, the second synchronizer 700 is adjusted to the S position, and the third synchronizer 800 remains in the L position, and the electric drive system is in high-speed mode. Since the transmission ratio of the continuously variable transmission mechanism 500 and the reduction mechanism 400 remains consistent during the transition mode, the speed of the active cone disk group 510 is the same as the speed of the input shaft 200. The first synchronizer 600 can adjust its position without power interruption, i.e., engage to the right. At this time, the power transmission path of the drive motor 100 is from the rotor assembly 120 to the motor shaft 130, then sequentially through the input shaft 200, the first synchronizer 600, the active cone disk group 510, the transmission belt 550, the driven cone disk group 530, the third synchronizer 800, the differential 310, and finally output by the first half-shaft 320 and the second half-shaft 330. At this time, the speed V of the drive motor 100 is maintained in the high-efficiency operating range or near the high-efficiency operating range, and the speed adjustment needs are met by the transmission ratio of the main driver 520 and the driven driver 540 in conjunction with the transmission belt 550. When the speed V is maintained above V1, the electric drive system mode remains unchanged. When the speed V drops to [V1*K, V1], the electric drive system mode is adjusted to the transition mode. When the motor speed V drops to [0, V1*K], the electric drive system mode is adjusted to the low-speed mode. Figure 5 The dashed line in the medium-to-high speed mode represents the power transmission path.
[0069] Please see Figure 2 Table 1 shows that, in one embodiment of the present invention, the control method for the electric drive system provided by the present invention further includes a disengagement mode. In this embodiment, the first synchronizer 600, the second synchronizer 700, and the third synchronizer 800 are all set to the S position. At this time, the electric drive system can form a traction coupling with other drive systems. For example, in single-motor drive mode, the electric drive system of the present invention can maintain the disengagement mode to prevent loss of vehicle power and economy due to reverse drag.
[0070] The present invention also provides an automobile, which may include a vehicle body, an electric drive system, and a battery. The electric drive system may be disposed at the front axle and / or the rear axle of the vehicle body, and the electric drive system is electrically connected to the battery to drive the vehicle body. The electric drive system may be the electric drive system described in any of the above embodiments.
[0071] In summary, this invention provides an electric drive system and a vehicle, relating to the field of automotive technology. Addressing the problem that existing electric drive systems cannot meet the speed requirements of high-speed vehicle operation and suffer from high energy consumption at high speeds, this invention provides a multi-mode continuously variable transmission (CVT) structure. This invention maintains the motor operating within its efficient operating range while increasing the peak speed of the electric drive system, thereby improving the vehicle's power and fuel economy. Furthermore, addressing the problem that existing traditional chain drive structures struggle to transmit large torques, and that multi-gear structures suffer from power interruption during shifting leading to shock, this invention provides a power-interruption-free gear-coupled chain drive system that can withstand low-speed, high-torque shifts without shock. Therefore, this invention effectively overcomes the various shortcomings of existing technologies and possesses high industrial applicability.
