The third ring gear meshes with the third planet gear and is connected to the first clutch and the second clutch.

[0024] In one possible implementation, the hybrid power system further includes a fourth gear;

When the first clutch and / or the second clutch are engaged, power from the engine and the first motor can be transmitted to the wheels.

[0062] A hybrid power system is a crucial component of a hybrid vehicle, using 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.

[0063] In related technologies, the power source of a hybrid power system includes an engine and two electric motors. The hybrid power system can switch between different driving modes by switching between different power sources.

[0064] However, the structure of hybrid power systems in related technologies is relatively simple. With the increase in vehicle types, a single type of hybrid power system cannot be applied to different types of vehicles. Therefore, how to enrich the structure of hybrid power systems is a technical problem that needs to be solved.

[0065] In view of the above-mentioned technical problems, embodiments of this disclosure provide a hybrid power system, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the hybrid power system includes an engine 100, a first motor 200, a second motor 300, a first planetary gear train 1, a second planetary gear train 2, a first clutch 3, a second clutch 4, a first brake 5, a second brake 6, a reduction gear mechanism 7, and an output shaft 400. The engine 100 is driven by the first clutch 3 and the second clutch 4, and the first motor 200 is also driven by the first clutch 3 and the second clutch 4. The second motor 300, the reduction gear mechanism 7, and the output shaft 400 are sequentially driven by each other, and the output shaft 400 is used for drive connection with the wheels 500.

[0066] The first planetary gear train 1 includes a first sun gear 11, a first planet carrier 12, a first planet gear 13, and a first ring gear 14. One end of the first planet carrier 12 is rotatably connected to the first planet gear 13, and the other end is connected to the first clutch 3. The first ring gear 14 meshes with the first planet gear 13 and is connected to the second clutch 4. The first sun gear 11 is connected to the first brake 5.

[0067] The second planetary gear train 2 includes a second sun gear 21, a second planet gear 22, and a second ring gear 23. The second planet gear 22 is coaxially connected to the first planet gear 13, the second sun gear 21 is connected to the second brake 6, and the second ring gear 23 is connected to the reduction mechanism 7 for transmission.

[0068] The first brake 5 and the second brake 6 are fixed to the housing of the hybrid power system.

[0069] The hybrid system also includes a battery pack, which is electrically connected to the first motor 200 and the second motor 300, and can supply power to the first motor 200 and the second motor 300. When the first motor 200 and the second motor 300 are driven by an external force, they can charge the battery pack.

[0070] The technical solution provided in this embodiment of the invention involves a second motor 300 connected to a wheel 500 via a reduction mechanism 7 and an output shaft 400. An engine 100 is connected to a first clutch 3 and a second clutch 4, as is a first motor 200. The first clutch 3 and the second clutch 4 are connected to the wheel 500 via a first planetary gear train 1, a second planetary gear train 2, a reduction mechanism 7, and an output shaft 400. When the first clutch 3 and / or the second clutch 4 are engaged, the power from the engine 100 and the first motor 200 can be transmitted to the wheel 500. When both the first clutch 3 and the second clutch 4 are disengaged, the power from the engine 100 and the first motor 200 cannot be transmitted to the wheel 500. Therefore, the hybrid power system can switch power sources via the first clutch 3 and the second clutch 4. Furthermore, when the first brake 5 is engaged, the first sun gear 11 of the first planetary gear train 1 is fixed; when the second brake 6 is engaged, the second sun gear 21 of the second planetary gear train 2 is fixed. Therefore, the hybrid power system can change the transmission ratio of the first planetary gear train 1 and the second planetary gear train 2 through the first brake 5 and the second brake 6, thereby enabling the hybrid power system to switch between different gears.

[0071] Hybrid systems can achieve different driving modes. The following is an example of how to implement the driving modes of a hybrid system.

[0072] In some examples, such as Figure 2 As shown, the hybrid system has a pure electric drive mode.

[0073] In pure electric drive mode, the first clutch 3, the second clutch 4, the first brake 5, and the second brake 6 are all disengaged, and the second motor 300 drives the output shaft 400 to rotate through the reduction mechanism 7. At this time, neither the engine 100 nor the second motor 300 is working; only the second motor 300 drives the output shaft 400, thereby driving the wheels 500.

[0074] The pure electric drive mode is suitable for vehicle start-up, low-speed driving, and when the vehicle has sufficient battery power. It can avoid the energy loss caused by frequent engine start-stop, thereby improving fuel efficiency.

[0075] Among them, the pure electric drive mode can realize reversing and energy recovery modes.

[0076] In reverse mode, the second motor 300 reverses, causing the reduction mechanism 7 and output shaft 400 to drive the wheels 500 in reverse, thus achieving reversing. Since the vehicle speed is relatively slow and the reversing time is short in reverse mode, the first motor 200 and engine 100 do not need to participate in driving, which can reduce the vehicle's energy consumption.

[0077] Under energy recovery conditions, wheel 500 decelerates and drives second motor 300 through output shaft 400 and reduction mechanism 7, so that second motor 300 can convert the vehicle's kinetic energy into electrical energy through negative torque, thereby charging the battery pack.

[0078] In some examples, such as Figures 3-7 As shown, the hybrid system has a hybrid mode.

[0079] In hybrid mode, the first clutch 3 and / or the second clutch 4 engage, and the engine 100 and the first motor 200 drive the output shaft 400 to rotate via the first clutch 3 and / or the second clutch 4 and the reduction mechanism 7. The second motor 300 also drives the output shaft 400 to rotate via the reduction mechanism 7. The power from the engine 100, the first motor 200, and the second motor 300 is coupled in the reduction mechanism 7, causing the reduction mechanism 7 to drive the wheels 500 via the output shaft 400.

[0080] At this time, the vehicle has sufficient power, so the hybrid mode is suitable for high-speed driving conditions.

[0081] In some examples, the hybrid system has a first gear mode, a second gear mode, a third gear mode, a fourth gear mode, and a fifth gear mode in hybrid mode.

[0082] In first gear mode, such as Figure 3As shown, the second clutch 4 is engaged and the second brake 6 is engaged. Power from the engine 100 and the first motor 200 is sequentially transmitted to the second clutch 4, the first ring gear 14, the first planetary gear 13, the second planetary gear 22, the second ring gear 23, the reduction mechanism 7, the output shaft 400, and the wheel 500. Simultaneously, power from the second motor 300 is sequentially transmitted to the reduction mechanism 7, the output shaft 400, and the wheel 500.

[0083] Since the second brake 6 is engaged and the second sun gear 21 is connected to the second brake 6, the second sun gear 21 does not rotate. Therefore, the second planet gear 22 only revolves around the second sun gear 21 and does not rotate on its own axis.

[0084] In the second gear mode, such as Figure 4 As shown, the second clutch 4 is engaged and the first brake 5 is engaged. Power from the engine 100 and the first motor 200 is sequentially transmitted to the second clutch 4, the first ring gear 14, the first planetary gear 13, the second planetary gear 22, the second ring gear 23, the reduction mechanism 7, the output shaft 400, and the wheel 500. Simultaneously, power from the second motor 300 is sequentially transmitted to the reduction mechanism 7, the output shaft 400, and the wheel 500.

[0085] Since the first brake 5 is engaged and connected to the first sun gear 11, the first sun gear 11 does not rotate. Therefore, the first planetary gear 13 only revolves around the first sun gear 11 and does not rotate on its own axis.

[0086] In the third gear mode, such as Figure 5 As shown, the first clutch 3 is engaged and the second clutch 4 is engaged. Since the first clutch 3 and the second clutch 4 are engaged simultaneously, and both the first clutch 3 and the second clutch 4 are connected to the first planetary gear train 1, the first planetary gear train 1 rotates as a whole, that is, there is no relative rotation between the first sun gear 11, the first planet carrier 12, the first planet gear 13 and the first ring gear 14.

[0087] The power from the engine 100 and the first motor 200 is sequentially transmitted to the first clutch 3 (second clutch 4), the first planetary gear 13, the second planetary gear 22, the second ring gear 23, the reduction mechanism 7, the output shaft 400, and the wheel 500. Simultaneously, the power from the second motor 300 is sequentially transmitted to the reduction mechanism 7, the output shaft 400, and the wheel 500.

[0088] In the fourth gear mode, such as Figure 6 As shown, the first clutch 3 is engaged and the first brake 5 is engaged.

[0089] The power from the engine 100 and the first motor 200 is sequentially transmitted to the first clutch 3, the first planetary carrier 12, the first planetary gear 13, the second planetary gear 22, the second ring gear 23, the reduction mechanism 7, the output shaft 400, and the wheel 500. At the same time, the power from the second motor 300 is sequentially transmitted to the reduction mechanism 7, the output shaft 400, and the wheel 500.

[0090] Since the first brake 5 is engaged and connected to the first sun gear 11, the first sun gear 11 does not rotate. Therefore, the first planetary gear 13 only revolves around the first sun gear 11 and does not rotate on its own axis.

[0091] In the fifth gear mode, such as Figure 7 As shown, the first clutch 3 is engaged and the second brake 6 is engaged. Power from the engine 100 and the first motor 200 is sequentially transmitted to the first clutch 3, the first planetary carrier 12, the first planetary gear 13, the second planetary gear 22, the second ring gear 23, the reduction mechanism 7, the output shaft 400, and the wheel 500. Simultaneously, power from the second motor 300 is sequentially transmitted to the reduction mechanism 7, the output shaft 400, and the wheel 500.

[0092] Since the second brake 6 is engaged and the second sun gear 21 is connected to the second brake 6, the second sun gear 21 does not rotate. Therefore, the second planet gear 22 only revolves around the second sun gear 21 and does not rotate on its own axis.

[0093] In some examples, such as Figure 1 As shown, the hybrid power system also includes a third planetary gear train 8. The third planetary gear train 8 includes a third sun gear 81, a third planet carrier 82, third planet gears 83, and a third ring gear 84. The third sun gear 81 surrounds the output shaft of the engine 100 and is connected to the first motor 200. One end of the third planet carrier 82 is connected to the output shaft of the engine 100, and the other end is rotatably connected to the third planet gear 83. The third ring gear 84 meshes with the third planet gear 83 and is drive-connected to the first clutch 3 and the second clutch 4. The third planetary gear train 8 can distribute power between the engine 100 and the first motor 200, thereby achieving stepless speed regulation of the hybrid power system. Furthermore, the planetary gear train 8 can decouple the engine 100 and the wheels 500, allowing the engine 100 to always operate in its high-efficiency range, thus resulting in lower fuel consumption.

[0094] When the engine 100 is operating, its power is sequentially transmitted to the third planetary carrier 82, the third planetary gears 83, and the third ring gear 84. When the first motor 200 is operating, its power is sequentially transmitted to the third sun gear 81, the third planetary gears 83, and the third ring gear 84, and then the power from the third ring gear 84 is transmitted to either the first clutch 3 or the second clutch 4. The power from the engine 100 and the first motor 200 is coupled at the third planetary gear 83.

[0095] In some examples, such as Figure 1 As shown, the hybrid power system also includes a fourth gear 9. The fourth gear 9 is coaxially connected to the second gear ring 23 and is also connected to the reduction mechanism 7. The diameter of the fourth gear 9 is smaller than the diameter of the second gear ring 23. Because the fourth gear 9 and the second gear ring 23 are coaxially connected, the rotational speed of the fourth gear 9 is the same as that of the second gear ring 23. The fourth gear 9 enables speed reduction and torque amplification between the third gear ring 84 and the reduction mechanism 7, thereby increasing the driving force on the wheel 500.

[0096] In some examples, such as Figure 1 As shown, the reduction mechanism 7 includes a first gear 71, a second gear 72, and a third gear 73. The first gear 71 is connected to the second motor 300. The second gear 72 meshes with the first gear 71 and is also driven by the second gear ring 23. The third gear 73 is coaxially connected to the second gear 72 and is driven by the output shaft 400. The diameters of the first gear 71 and the third gear 73 are smaller than the diameter of the second gear 72. Because the diameter of the first gear 71 is smaller than the diameter of the second gear 72, the rotational speed of the second gear 72 is lower than that of the first gear 71. Since the third gear 73 is coaxially connected to the second gear 72, the rotational speeds of the second gear 72 and the third gear 73 are the same. Because the diameter of the third gear 73 is smaller than that of the second gear 72, compared to a direct drive connection between the output shaft 400 and the second gear 72, a connection between the output shaft 400 and the third gear 73 can achieve a larger torque and a lower rotational speed, making it easier for the output shaft 400 to drive the wheels.

[0097] The power from the second motor 300 is sequentially transmitted to the first gear 71, the second gear 72, the third gear 73, the output shaft 400, and the wheel 500. The power from the engine 100 and the first motor 200 is transmitted to the second gear ring 23, which then sequentially transmits the power to the third gear 73, the output shaft 400, and the wheel 500. The power from the engine 100, the first motor 200, and the second motor 300 is coupled at the second gear 72.

[0098] In some examples, such as Figure 1As shown, the first clutch 3 and the second clutch 4 form a dual clutch. The first clutch 3 includes a first clutch clamp 31, a first annular steel plate 32, a first clutch disc 33, and a first hollow shaft 34. The first annular steel plate 32 is fixed to the inner wall of the first clutch clamp 31. The first clutch clamp 31 is connected to the engine 100 and the first motor 200 for transmission. The two ends of the first hollow shaft 34 are connected to the first planetary carrier 12 and the first clutch disc 33. When the first annular steel plate 32 and the first clutch disc 33 are connected, the first clutch 3 is engaged, allowing the power from the engine 100 and the first motor 200 to be transmitted to the first clutch clamp 31, the first annular steel plate 32, the first clutch disc 33, and the first planetary carrier 12.

[0099] The second clutch 4 includes a second annular steel plate 41, a second clutch disc 42, and a second hollow shaft 43. The second annular steel plate 41 is fixed to the inner wall of the first clutch clamp 31. The second hollow shaft 43 is fitted around the first hollow shaft 34, and both ends of the second hollow shaft 43 are connected to the first gear ring 14 and the second hollow shaft 43. When the second annular steel plate 41 and the second clutch disc 42 are connected, the second clutch 4 is engaged, allowing the power from the engine 100 and the first motor 200 to be transmitted to the first clutch clamp 31, the second annular steel plate 41, the second clutch disc 42, and the first gear ring 14.

[0100] The first clutch 3 and the second clutch 4 form a dual clutch, allowing them to share the same clutch clamp, thereby reducing the size of both clutches.

[0101] The first clutch clamp 31 is coaxially connected to the third gear ring 84, and the first hollow shaft 34 is sleeved around the connecting shaft between the first clutch clamp 31 and the third gear ring 84.

[0102] In some examples, such as Figure 1 As shown, the gear ratio of the first sun gear 11 to the first planet gear 13 is greater than the gear ratio of the second sun gear 21 to the second planet gear 22. Specifically, the diameter of the first sun gear 11 is larger than the diameter of the first planet gear 13, and the diameter of the second sun gear 21 is smaller than the diameter of the second planet gear 22. This allows the first planetary gear train 1 and the second planetary gear train 2 to achieve different transmission ratios.

[0103] In some examples, such as Figure 1 As shown, the hybrid system also includes a differential 10. The differential 10 meshes with a third gear 73. When the vehicle turns, the differential 10 allows the two wheels 500 to rotate at different speeds, thus enabling the vehicle to turn smoothly.

[0104] This disclosure also provides a vehicle that includes the aforementioned hybrid power system.

[0105] This disclosure does not specifically limit the type of vehicle, such as cars, buses, trucks, sport utility vehicles (SUVs), etc.

[0106] 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.
