Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of electric drive for new energy vehicles, and in particular relates to a four-speed wheel hub electric drive system for a heavy-duty 8×8 off-road vehicle. Background Art

[0002] The wheel hub electric drive system places the power system inside the vehicle wheel rim, which is a distributed drive form. At present, the wheel hub electric drive system mainly adopts three forms: wheel hub motor direct drive, wheel hub motor matched with reducer, and wheel hub motor matched with transmission. Off-road vehicles mainly adopt the form of wheel hub motor matched with reducer.

[0003] The driving conditions of off-road vehicles are complex, and the wheels need to output greater driving torque. The existing hub electric drive system with a hub motor and a reducer is difficult to take into account the requirements of maximum wheel speed and maximum output torque. This results in excessive design margin of the hub motor, resulting in low system power density. With the advancement of hub motor technology, the speed of the hub motor is getting higher and higher, and this contradiction is more prominent. For this reason, it is necessary to develop a hub electric drive system with a hub motor and a transmission drive. Heavy-duty 8×8 off-road vehicles above 35 tons have greater requirements for wheel output torque in order to pass the most difficult roads. The transmission ratio range of the hub electric drive system must be as high as 15.0. Summary of the invention

[0004] 1. Technical issues to be resolved

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is: how to provide a four-speed wheel hub electric drive system for heavy-duty 8×8 off-road vehicles, which adopts a wheel hub motor matched with a transmission drive form to achieve four forward gears. The maximum output torque requirement of the wheel hub electric drive system can be met in the first gear, and the maximum wheel speed requirement of the wheel hub electric drive system can be met in the fourth gear, so as to solve the technical problem that the maximum wheel speed and the maximum driving torque of the off-road vehicle are difficult to take into account. The transmission ratio of the middle gear should be relatively uniform to give full play to the power of the wheel hub motor. At the same time, the transmission ratio range should reach more than 15.0 to meet the requirements of heavy-duty 8×8 off-road vehicles above 35 tons working in low gear to overcome the resistance of difficult roads.
