[0069] The hybrid transmission system is a crucial component of hybrid vehicles, utilizing both an engine and an electric motor as power sources. This allows the vehicle to operate in both gasoline and electric modes, thus achieving a balance between power and fuel economy. In related technologies, the hybrid transmission system includes an engine, a first electric motor, and a second electric motor. The engine and the first electric motor are connected via a gear transmission, enabling the engine to drive the first electric motor to generate electricity. However, the hybrid transmission systems in these technologies have a relatively complex structure and occupy a large volume, making their installation within the vehicle challenging.
[0070] This disclosure provides a hybrid power transmission system, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the hybrid transmission system includes an engine 1, a first motor 2, a second motor 3, a first clutch 4, a transmission mechanism 5, and an output shaft 6. The output shaft of the engine 1 is coaxial with the output shaft of the first motor 2 and is connected via the first clutch 4. The output shafts of both the first motor 2 and the second motor 3 are connected to the output shaft 6 via the transmission mechanism 5. The transmission mechanism 5 is used to drive the output shaft 6 to the engine 1, and / or the first motor 2 and / or the second motor 3. The output shaft 6 is used to drive the wheels 100.
[0071] Among them, engine 1, first motor 2 and second motor 3 are the power sources of the hybrid transmission system, and transmission mechanism 5 is used to switch the power source of output shaft 6.
[0072] The technical solution provided in this disclosure involves an engine 1 and a first motor 2 arranged coaxially and connected by a first clutch 4. The first clutch 4 engages when the engine 1 drives the first motor 2 to generate electricity or when the engine 1 drives the output shaft 6 to rotate. This eliminates the need for a pair of gears to connect the engine 1 and the first motor 2, thus reducing the number of gear shafts. This reduces the height dimension of the hybrid transmission system, resulting in a smaller overall volume and facilitating its installation in a vehicle.
[0073] In some examples, the first motor 2 loops around the first clutch 4.
[0074] The following is an exemplary description of how the transmission mechanism 5 is implemented.
[0075] In some examples, such as Figure 2 As shown, the transmission mechanism 5 includes a second clutch 51, a drive shaft 52, a first gear train 53, a second gear train 54, a shifting mechanism 55, and a third gear train 56. Figure 3 As shown, the second clutch 51 is a dual clutch, including a first sub-clutch mechanism 511 and a second sub-clutch mechanism 512. Figure 4As shown, the output shaft of the first motor 2 is connected to the transmission shaft 52 via a first sub-clutch mechanism 511. The transmission shaft 52 is connected to the input ends of the first gear train 53 and the second gear train 54. The second motor 3 is connected to the input ends of the first gear train 53 and the second gear train 54. The output ends of the first gear train 53 and the second gear train 54 are connected to the output shaft 6 via a shifting mechanism 55, and the shifting mechanism 55 can adjust the transmission connection between the first gear train 53, the second gear train 54, and the output shaft 6. Figure 5 As shown, the input end of the third gear train 56 is connected to the first motor 2 via the second sub-clutch mechanism 512. (As indicated...) Figure 6 As shown, the input end of the third gear train 56 is connected to the drive shaft 52 through the first sub-clutch mechanism 511 and the second sub-clutch mechanism 512.
[0076] For example, such as Figure 2 As shown, the first gear train 53 includes a meshing first gear 531 and a second gear 532, and the second gear train 54 includes meshing third gear 541 and fourth gear 542. The first gear 531 and fourth gear 542 are connected to the drive shaft 52. The first gear 531 is also connected to the second motor 3. The second gear 532 and fourth gear 542 are rings around the output shaft 6. The third gear train 56 includes a fifth gear 561 and a sixth gear 562. The fifth gear 561 is ringed around the drive shaft 52 and connected to the second sub-clutch mechanism 512. The sixth gear 562 is connected to the output shaft 6. The fifth gear 561 and the second sub-clutch mechanism 512 can be connected via a hollow shaft.
[0077] The shift mechanism 55 is located between the second gear 532 and the fourth gear 542, and is slidably connected to the output shaft 6. When the shift mechanism 55 slides to and connects with the second gear 532, the first gear 531 drives the second gear 532 to rotate, and the second gear 532 drives the output shaft 6 to rotate via the shift mechanism 55. When the shift mechanism 55 slides to and connects with the fourth gear 542, the third gear 541 drives the fourth gear 542 to rotate, and the fourth gear 542 drives the output shaft 6 to rotate via the shift mechanism 55.
[0078] In some examples, the gear ratio of the first gear train 53 is greater than that of the third gear train 56, and the gear ratio of the third gear train 56 is greater than that of the second gear train 54. This allows the transmission mechanism 5 to switch between different gears. When the transmission mechanism 5 drives the output shaft 6 through the first gear train 53, it is in the first gear. When the transmission mechanism 5 drives the output shaft 6 through the second gear train 54, it is in the second gear. When the transmission mechanism 5 drives the output shaft 6 through the third gear train 56, it is in the third gear.
[0079] In some examples, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the second motor 3 includes a motor body 301, an output gear 302, and an idler gear 303. The output gear 302 is connected to the motor body 301, and the idler gear 303 meshes with the output gear 302 and the input end of the first gear train 53.
[0080] The following is an exemplary description of how a clutch is implemented.
[0081] In some examples, such as Figure 3 As shown, the second clutch 51 also includes a first housing 513, which is connected to the output shaft of the first motor 2. The first sub-clutch mechanism 511 includes a first clutch disc 5111 and a first pressure plate 5112. The first clutch disc 5111 is circumferentially fixed to the inner side of the first housing 513, and the first pressure plate 5112 is connected to the drive shaft 52. When the first pressure plate 5112 engages with the first clutch disc 5111, the first motor 2 is connected to the drive shaft 52.
[0082] The second clutch mechanism 512 includes a second clutch disc 5121 and a second pressure plate 5122. The second clutch disc 5121 is circumferentially fixed to the inner side of the first housing 513. The second pressure plate 5122 is connected to the third gear train 56 and is ring-encircled by the drive shaft 52. When the second clutch disc 5121 and the second pressure plate 5122 are engaged, the first motor 2 is driven by the third gear train 56.
[0083] When the first pressure plate 5112 is engaged with the first clutch disc 5111 and the second clutch disc 5121 and the second pressure plate 5122 are engaged, the second motor 3 drives the first pressure plate 5112 through the first gear 531 and the transmission shaft 52. The first pressure plate 5112 drives the first housing 513 to rotate through the first clutch disc 5111, and the first housing 513 drives the fifth gear 561 to rotate through the second clutch disc 5121 and the second pressure plate 5122, thereby realizing the transmission connection between the second motor 3 and the second gear train 54.
[0084] The first sub-clutch mechanism 511 and the second sub-clutch mechanism 512 are combined to form a dual clutch. This makes the structure of the first sub-clutch mechanism 511 and the second sub-clutch mechanism 512 more compact and smaller in size, which helps to reduce the axial dimension of the hybrid transmission system and thus reduce the volume of the hybrid transmission system.
[0085] In some examples, such as Figure 3As shown, the first clutch 4 includes a second housing 41, a third clutch disc 42, and a third pressure plate 43. The third pressure plate 43 is drive-connected to the output shaft of the engine 1, and the third clutch disc 42 is circumferentially fixed inside the second housing 41. The first motor 2 is fitted around the second housing 41 and is drive-connected to the second housing 41. When the first clutch 4 is engaged, the third clutch disc 42 and the third pressure plate 43 engage, causing the engine 1 to drive the third pressure plate 43 to rotate via the third clutch disc 42, which in turn drives the first motor 2 to rotate via the third clutch disc 42 and the second housing 41.
[0086] In some examples, such as Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, the hybrid transmission system also includes a differential 7, the input shaft of which is connected to the output shaft 6, and the output shaft of which is connected to the wheel 100.
[0087] like Figure 7 As shown, let the axis of the motor body 301 of the second motor 3 be A, the axis of the idler wheel 303 be B, the axis of the drive shaft 52 be C, the axis of the output shaft 6 be D, and the axis of the output shaft of the differential 7 be E. Then ∠ABC, ∠BCD, and ∠CDE are all less than 180°, which makes the structure of the entire hybrid transmission system more compact.
[0088] For example, ∠ABC is 164.82°±0.5°, ∠BCD is 130°±0.5°, and ∠CDE is 117.25°±0.5°. The center distance L between the drive shaft 52 and the output shaft of the differential 7 can be 197mm, and the height difference D between the drive shaft 52 and the output shaft of the differential 7 can be 65mm.
[0089] The hybrid transmission system is located in the gearbox. Let H be the height difference between the lowest design line of the gearbox and the ground line. Then H is 226mm-236mm.
[0090] The working principle of a hybrid transmission system will be explained below by way of example.
[0091] In some examples, the hybrid transmission system has both a pure electric drive mode and an engine drive mode. The implementation methods of the pure electric drive mode and the engine drive mode are illustrated below.
[0092] (1) Pure electric drive mode
[0093] In pure electric drive mode, the first clutch 4 is not engaged, and the second motor 3 drives the output shaft 6 to rotate. Alternatively, the first motor 2 and the second motor 3 jointly drive the output shaft 6 to rotate. The pure electric drive mode includes both single-motor and dual-motor modes.
[0094] (a) Single motor mode
[0095] In single-motor mode, neither engine 1 nor the first motor 2 rotates; instead, the output shaft 6 is driven to rotate by the second motor 3. The single-motor mode has three gears: a first gear, a second gear, and a third gear, suitable for situations where the vehicle has sufficient battery power or is traveling at low speeds in urban areas.
[0096] In the first gear of single motor mode, such as Figure 8 As shown, the first clutch 4, the first sub-clutch mechanism 511, and the second sub-clutch mechanism 512 are not engaged. The shifting mechanism 55 engages with the second gear 532 of the first gear train 53, and the power of the second motor 3 is transmitted to the output shaft 6 sequentially through the first gear train 53 and the shifting mechanism 55.
[0097] In the second gear of single motor mode, such as Figure 9 As shown, the first clutch 4, the first sub-clutch mechanism 511, and the second sub-clutch mechanism 512 are not engaged. The shifting mechanism 55 engages with the fourth gear 542 of the second gear train 54, and the power of the second motor 3 is transmitted to the output shaft 6 sequentially through the second gear train 54 and the shifting mechanism 55.
[0098] In the third gear of single-motor mode, such as Figure 10 As shown, the first clutch 4 is not engaged, while the first sub-clutch mechanism 511 and the second sub-clutch mechanism 512 are both engaged. The power of the second motor 3 is transmitted to the output shaft 6 sequentially through the first gear 531, the transmission shaft 52, the first sub-clutch mechanism 511, the second sub-clutch mechanism 512 and the third gear train 56.
[0099] (b) Dual motor mode
[0100] In dual-motor mode, engine 1 does not rotate; instead, output shaft 6 is driven to rotate simultaneously by first motor 2 and second motor 3. First motor 2 and second motor 3 can drive output shaft 6 through the same gear train, such as both driving the first gear train 53. Alternatively, first motor 2 and second motor 3 can drive output shaft 6 through different gear trains, such as first motor 2 driving output shaft 6 through a third gear train 56, while second motor 3 drives output shaft 6 through the first gear train 53. This allows for uninterrupted power during gear shifts. Single-motor mode is suitable when the vehicle has sufficient battery power or when the vehicle is traveling at high speeds on urban roads.
[0101] In dual-motor mode, the hybrid transmission system has a first dual-motor gear, a second dual-motor gear, a third dual-motor gear, a fourth dual-motor gear, and a fifth dual-motor gear.
[0102] In the first dual-motor mode, such as Figure 11As shown, the shift mechanism 55 engages with the first gear train 53, and the first sub-clutch mechanism 511 engages, so that both the first motor 2 and the second motor 3 drive the first gear train 53.
[0103] In the second dual-motor mode, such as Figure 12 As shown, the shifting mechanism 55 engages with the first gear train 53, causing the second motor 3 to drive the first gear train 53. At the same time, the second sub-clutch mechanism 512 engages, causing the first motor 2 to drive the third gear train 56.
[0104] In the third dual-motor mode, such as Figure 13 As shown, the shift mechanism 55 engages with the second gear train 54 and the first sub-clutch mechanism 511 engages, so that both the first motor 2 and the second motor 3 drive the second gear train 54.
[0105] In the fourth dual-motor mode, such as Figure 14 As shown, the shift mechanism 55 engages with the second gear train 54, and the second motor 3 drives the second gear train 54. At the same time, the second sub-clutch mechanism 512 engages, and the first motor 2 drives the third gear train 56.
[0106] In the fifth dual-motor mode, such as Figure 15 As shown, the first sub-clutch mechanism 511 and the second sub-clutch mechanism 512 are both engaged, and the first motor 2 and the second motor 3 both drive the third gear train 56.
[0107] (2) Engine drive mode
[0108] In engine-driven mode, the first clutch 4 is engaged, the first sub-clutch mechanism 511 is engaged, and / or the second sub-clutch mechanism 512 is engaged. The engine-driven mode has a first gear, a second gear, and a third gear.
[0109] In the first gear of engine drive mode, such as Figure 16 As shown, the first clutch 4 and the first sub-clutch mechanism 511 are both engaged, and the power of the engine 1 is transmitted to the first gear train 53 through the first motor 2, the first sub-clutch mechanism 511 and the drive shaft 52. The shift mechanism 55 engages with the second gear 532, causing the first gear train 53 to drive the output shaft 6 to rotate.
[0110] In the second gear of engine drive mode, such as Figure 17 As shown, the first clutch 4 and the first sub-clutch mechanism 511 are both engaged, and the power of the engine 1 is transmitted to the second gear train 54 through the first motor 2, the first sub-clutch mechanism 511 and the drive shaft 52. The shift mechanism 55 engages with the fourth gear 542, causing the second gear train 54 to drive the output shaft 6 to rotate.
[0111] In the third gear of engine drive mode, such as Figure 18As shown, the first clutch 4 and the second sub-clutch mechanism 512 are both engaged, and the power of the engine 1 is transmitted to the output shaft 6 through the first motor 2, the second sub-clutch mechanism 512 and the third gear train 56.
[0112] It should be noted that in engine-driven mode, although the first motor 2 rotates, it only serves to transmit power, that is, the first motor 2 is not energized. In this case, the first motor 2 can be regarded as a drive shaft.
[0113] In some examples, the hybrid transmission system has both series drive mode and parallel drive mode. The implementation methods of series drive mode and parallel drive mode are illustrated below.
[0114] (1) Series drive mode
[0115] In series drive mode, the first clutch 4 engages, and the engine 1 drives the first motor 2 to generate electricity. The first motor 2 then supplies power to the second motor 3, which in turn drives the transmission mechanism 5. Series drive mode can also be called range-extending mode. In this mode, the engine 1 does not directly drive the output shaft 6, but only drives the first motor 2 to generate electricity. Therefore, in series drive mode, only the first and second gears can be switched. To achieve the second gear, the first sub-clutch mechanism 511 and the second sub-clutch mechanism 512 need to engage simultaneously, which will cause the engine 1 to transmit power to the third gear train 56. The switching between the first and second gears in series drive mode is similar in principle to that in single-motor mode, and will not be elaborated further here.
[0116] (2) Parallel drive mode
[0117] In parallel drive mode, the first clutch 4 is engaged, the first sub-clutch mechanism 511, and / or the second sub-clutch mechanism 512 are engaged, and the engine 1, the first motor 2, and the second motor 3 jointly drive the transmission mechanism 5. The parallel drive mode has a first parallel gear, a second parallel gear, a third parallel gear, a fourth parallel gear, and a fifth parallel gear.
[0118] In the first parallel gear, such as Figure 19 As shown, the first clutch 4 and the first sub-clutch mechanism 511 are both engaged, and the shifting mechanism 55 is engaged with the second gear 532 of the first gear train 53. This allows the engine 1, the first motor 2, and the second motor 3 to all drive the output shaft 6 through the first gear train 53.
[0119] In the second parallel gear position, such as Figure 20 As shown, the first clutch 4 and the second sub-clutch mechanism 512 are both engaged, and the shifting mechanism 55 is engaged with the second gear 532 of the first gear train 53. This allows the engine 1 and the first motor 2 to drive the transmission shaft 6 through the third gear train 56, and the second motor 3 to drive the output shaft 6 through the first gear train 53.
[0120] In the third parallel gear, such as Figure 21 As shown, the first clutch 4 and the first sub-clutch mechanism 511 are both engaged, and the shifting mechanism 55 is engaged with the fourth gear 542 of the second gear train 54. This allows the engine 1, the first motor 2, and the second motor 3 to all drive the output shaft 6 through the second gear train 54.
[0121] In the fourth parallel gear, such as Figure 22 As shown, the first clutch 4 and the second sub-clutch mechanism 512 are both engaged, and the shifting mechanism 55 is engaged with the fourth gear 542 of the second gear train 54. This allows the engine 1 and the first motor 2 to drive the transmission shaft 6 through the third gear train 56, and the second motor 3 to drive the output shaft 6 through the second gear train 54.
[0122] In the fifth parallel gear, such as Figure 23 As shown, the first clutch 4, the first sub-clutch mechanism 511, and the second sub-clutch mechanism 512 are all engaged. This allows the engine 1, the first motor 2, and the second motor 3 to drive the output shaft 6 via the third gear train 56.
[0123] In some examples, the hybrid transmission system also features a driving-charging mode. In driving-charging mode, the first clutch 4 engages, and the engine 1 drives the first electric motor 2 to generate electricity. The hybrid transmission system also features an engine-driven mode in driving-charging mode; the principle of the engine-driven mode in driving-charging mode is similar to that described above, and will not be repeated here.
[0124] In driving charging mode, the second motor 3 can also participate in driving the output shaft 6. At this time, the principle of gear switching of the hybrid transmission system is similar to that of gear switching in parallel drive mode. The difference is that in driving charging mode, the first motor 2 does not participate in driving but only generates electricity, which will not be elaborated here.
[0125] In some examples, the hybrid transmission system also features a parking charging mode. In parking charging mode, the first clutch 4 engages, and the engine 1 drives the first electric motor 2 to generate electricity.
[0126] The hybrid transmission system provided in this disclosure integrates five gear shafts, ten gears, and three clutches, enabling individual and hybrid drive functions for the engine and drive motor, as well as power generation by the generator. By combining parameters such as engine power, torque, and speed with those of the motor, and considering the limitations of the vehicle and the hybrid transmission itself, a three-gear design is achieved, maximizing space utilization to meet vehicle layout requirements within a limited space while achieving superior power performance. The multi-gear design also fully utilizes the engine's efficient operating point to achieve low fuel consumption.
[0127] This disclosure also provides a vehicle that includes the aforementioned hybrid power transmission system.
[0128] The above description is merely an optional embodiment of this disclosure and is not intended to limit this disclosure. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the principles of this disclosure should be included within the protection scope of this disclosure.
