In pure electric mode, the clutch is disconnected and only the drive motor is used to provide power for the vehicle.

[0003] However, in the current hybrid system configuration, although the clutch is disconnected in pure electric mode, the drive motor still needs to drive some components of the engine transmission path to follow up.

[0006] The hybrid power transmission system designed as above, this scheme is by setting the clutch on the output shaft, and the clutch is located between the engine transmission assembly and the drive motor transmission assembly, so that when the vehicle is in pure electric mode, that is, the engine is not started, and the vehicle is driven only by the drive motor, because the clutch is in a disengaged state, the clutch in the disengaged state isolates the transmission force of the drive motor transmission assembly, so that the transmission force of the drive motor transmission assembly will not be transmitted to the engine transmission assembly. In this way, the rotation of the mechanical parts of the engine transmission assembly is completely cut off by the isolator, thereby reducing the resistance generated by the mechanical parts of the engine due to the follow-up when the drive motor is driven, thereby reducing energy loss and improving the pure electric cruising range of the vehicle.

[0018] In a fourth aspect, the present application provides a power control device, which is arranged in the hybrid vehicle described in the second aspect, and the device includes an acquisition module, a judgment module and a control module. The acquisition module is used to obtain the driving mode currently selected by the driver; the judgment module is used to judge whether the vehicle driving mode currently selected by the driver is a full-range pure electric mode; wherein the full-range pure electric mode means that the vehicle is driven only by the drive motor for the current navigation mileage; the control module is used to control the clutch to be in a disengaged state when the judgment module determines that the vehicle driving mode selected by the user is a full-range pure electric mode, so as to isolate the engine transmission assembly and the drive motor transmission assembly.

In this way, the rotation of the mechanical parts of the engine transmission assembly is completely cut off by the isolator, thereby reducing the resistance generated by the mechanical parts of the engine due to the follow-up when the drive motor is driven, thereby reducing energy loss and improving the pure electric cruising range of the vehicle.

For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0044] At present, hybrid power systems are developing rapidly. Conventional hybrid power systems are mainly divided into five main modes: pure electric mode, series mode, engine direct drive mode, parallel mode and energy recovery mode. In pure electric mode, the clutch is disconnected and only the drive motor is used to provide power for the vehicle.

[0045] However, in the current hybrid system configuration, although the clutch is disconnected in pure electric mode, the drive motor still needs to drive some components of the engine transmission path to follow up. The rotational inertia of the mechanical parts and the oil stirring resistance generate energy loss, thereby reducing the vehicle's pure electric range.

[0046] Based on the above problems, the present application designs a hybrid power transmission system, a hybrid vehicle and a power control method. The clutch is set on the output shaft, and the clutch is located between the engine transmission assembly and the drive motor transmission assembly. In this way, when the vehicle is driven only by the drive motor, the clutch is in a disengaged state. The clutch in the disengaged state can completely cut off the rotation of the mechanical parts of the engine transmission assembly, thereby reducing the resistance generated by the mechanical parts of the engine due to the follow-up when the drive motor is driven, thereby reducing energy loss and improving the vehicle's pure electric range.

[0047] Based on the above ideas, the present application first provides a hybrid power transmission system, such as Figure 1 As shown, the hybrid powertrain system includes an engine 10, a drive motor 20, an engine transmission assembly 30, a drive motor transmission assembly 40, a clutch 50 and a system output shaft 60, wherein the engine 10 is connected to the output shaft 60 through the engine transmission assembly 30, the drive motor 20 is connected to the system output shaft 60 through the drive motor transmission assembly 40, and the clutch 50 is arranged on the system output shaft 60 and the clutch 50 is arranged between the engine transmission assembly 30 and the drive motor transmission assembly 40.

[0048] In the hybrid power transmission system designed above, in the pure electric mode, the clutch 50 is in a disengaged state, the engine 10 is not started, and the vehicle battery supplies power to the drive motor 20 to drive the vehicle.

[0049] Since the clutch 50 is arranged between the engine transmission assembly 30 and the drive motor transmission assembly 40, the clutch 50 in the disengaged state isolates the transmission between the engine transmission assembly 30 and the drive motor transmission assembly 40. In this way, when the hybrid power transmission system is in the pure electric mode, the vehicle battery provides electrical energy to the drive motor 20 so that the drive motor 20 works to generate driving force, and the drive motor 20 works to drive the motor transmission assembly 40 to output driving force to the system output shaft 60. Since the clutch is in the disengaged state at this time, the transmission force generated by the drive motor transmission assembly 40 stops at the isolator 50, and the transmission force will not be transmitted to the engine transmission assembly 30 through the clutch 50. Therefore, in the pure electric mode, the drive motor 20 only generates driving force for the drive motor transmission assembly 40, and the engine transmission assembly 30 will not follow when only the drive motor 20 works, thereby reducing the resistance generated by the mechanical parts of the engine due to following when the drive motor is driving, thereby reducing energy loss and improving the pure electric cruising range of the vehicle.

[0050] The hybrid power transmission system designed as above, this scheme is by setting the clutch on the output shaft, and the clutch is located between the engine transmission assembly and the drive motor transmission assembly, so that when the vehicle is in pure electric mode, that is, the engine is not started, and the vehicle is driven only by the drive motor, because the clutch is in a disengaged state, the clutch in the disengaged state isolates the transmission force of the drive motor transmission assembly, so that the transmission force of the drive motor transmission assembly will not be transmitted to the engine transmission assembly. In this way, the rotation of the mechanical parts of the engine transmission assembly is completely cut off by the isolator, thereby reducing the resistance generated by the mechanical parts of the engine due to the follow-up when the drive motor is driven, thereby reducing energy loss and improving the pure electric cruising range of the vehicle.

[0051] In an optional implementation of this embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, the hybrid power system designed in this solution also includes a generator 70, and the output shaft of the generator 70 is connected to the engine transmission assembly 30.

[0052] In the above embodiment, since the generator 70 is connected to the engine transmission assembly 30 through the generator transmission assembly 80, when the hybrid power transmission system is in pure electric mode, since the isolator 50 is in an isolated state, the clutch 50 in a separated state cuts off the transmission force of the drive motor transmission assembly 40, so that the transmission force of the drive motor transmission assembly 40 will not be transmitted to the engine transmission assembly 30, and at the same time, it will not be transmitted to the generator transmission assembly 80, thereby reducing the resistance generated by the mechanical parts of the engine and the generator due to the follow-up when the drive motor is driven, and further reducing energy loss and improving the pure electric cruising range of the vehicle. In addition, this solution arranges the generator 70 after the engine 10 and before the clutch 50, and eliminates the gear transmission link between the generator 70 and the engine 10, which can reduce the friction loss of the engine transmission assembly 30 in the series mode, that is, when the clutch 50 is separated, prolong the service life of the parts, and extend the maintenance cycle of the hybrid transmission.

[0053] In an optional implementation of this embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the engine transmission assembly 30 designed in this scheme includes a first transmission gear set 310 and a second transmission gear set 320; the output shaft 110 of the engine 10 is connected to the first transmission gear set 310, the output shaft of the first transmission gear set 310 is connected to the second transmission gear set 320, and the second transmission gear set 320 is connected to the system output shaft 60.

[0054] In the above-mentioned implementation mode, the present solution makes the power transmission of the engine 10 more reliable and controllable by designing the engine transmission assembly 30 to be composed of the first transmission gear set 310 and the second transmission gear set 320, thereby improving the reliability and effectiveness of the engine power transmission.

[0055] Based on the hybrid powertrain system designed above, this solution can include the following 5 output modes:

[0056] ① Pure electric mode: the clutch 50 is in a disengaged state, the engine 10 is not started, the vehicle battery supplies power to the drive motor 20, the drive motor 20 works, the drive motor transmission assembly 40 transmits the driving force to the system output shaft 60, and the system output shaft 60 outputs the vehicle driving force.

[0057] ② Series mode: the clutch 50 is in a disengaged state, the engine 10 is started to supply power to the vehicle battery through the generator 70 (without providing driving force), the drive motor 20 works and the drive motor transmission assembly 40 transmits the driving force to the system output shaft 60, and the system output shaft 60 outputs the vehicle driving force.

[0058] ③ Direct drive mode: the clutch 50 is in the engaged state, only the engine 10 is started, and the engine 10 drives the engine transmission assembly 30 to output driving force to the system output shaft 60.

[0059] ④ Parallel mode: the clutch 50 is in the engaged state, the engine 10 is started to charge the battery through the generator 70, and at the same time, the engine 10 drives the engine transmission assembly 30 to output driving force to the system output shaft 60, and at the same time, the drive motor 20 drives the drive motor transmission assembly 40 to output driving force to the system output shaft 60.

[0060] ⑤ Energy recovery mode: the clutch 50 is in a disengaged state, and the power is input from the system output shaft 60 to the drive motor 20 and converted into electrical energy which is stored in the vehicle battery.

[0061] The present application also provides a hybrid vehicle, such as Figure 4 As shown, the hybrid vehicle includes a hybrid powertrain system 1 of any optional embodiment described above and a vehicle controller 2, and the vehicle controller 2 is connected to the clutch 50. The vehicle controller 2 can control the state of the clutch 50, and can control the clutch 50 to be in a disengaged state or an engaged state. In addition, the vehicle controller 2 can also communicate with the engine 10, the drive motor 20 and the generator 70, and can control the starting state of the engine 10, the starting state of the drive motor 20 and the starting state of the generator 70, for example, the engine 10 can be controlled to start or stop starting, the drive motor 20 can be controlled to start or stop starting, and the generator 70 can be controlled to start or stop starting, etc.

[0062] The hybrid vehicle designed as above includes the hybrid power transmission system described above. Therefore, the designed hybrid vehicle can be arranged with a clutch on the output shaft, and the clutch is located between the engine transmission assembly and the drive motor transmission assembly. In this way, when the vehicle is in pure electric mode, that is, the engine is not started and the vehicle is driven only by the drive motor, the clutch is in a disengaged state, and the clutch in the disengaged state isolates the transmission force of the drive motor transmission assembly, so that the transmission force of the drive motor transmission assembly is not transmitted to the engine transmission assembly. In this way, the rotation of the mechanical parts of the engine transmission assembly is completely cut off by the isolator, thereby reducing the resistance generated by the mechanical parts of the engine due to the follow-up when the drive motor is driven, thereby reducing energy loss and improving the pure electric cruising range of the vehicle.

[0063] The present application also provides a power control method, which can be applied to the hybrid vehicle described above. Specifically, the power control method can be applied to a vehicle controller, etc. Figure 5 As shown, the power control method can be implemented in the following ways, including:

[0064] Step S500: Obtain the driving mode currently selected by the driver.

[0065] Step S510: Determine whether the vehicle driving mode currently selected by the driver is a full-range pure electric mode. If so, go to step S520.

[0066] Step S520: Control the clutch to be in a disengaged state to isolate the engine transmission assembly from the drive motor transmission assembly.

[0067] In the above embodiment, when the driver is driving the vehicle, the system can recommend some driving mode options to the driver. For example, the system can recommend the five driving modes described above to the driver for selection, and the driver can transmit the selected driving mode to the vehicle controller via the on-board device.

[0068] As a possible implementation method, in addition to the five driving modes described above, this solution can also provide feedback to the driver on the full-range pure electric mode. The full-range pure electric mode means that the vehicle is driven only by the drive motor for the current navigation mileage, that is, the driver uses the pure electric mode for the entire journey from the current location to the destination.

[0069] Before giving feedback and recommending the full-range pure electric mode, the present scheme can also determine whether the recommendation conditions are met. Specifically, the present scheme can first obtain the navigation destination information currently input by the driver, and the current mileage from the current location to the navigation destination can be known through the navigation destination information and the current location of the vehicle. Then, the present scheme can obtain the vehicle status information, and based on the vehicle status information, the vehicle's current mileage in pure electric driving can be known. Then, by determining whether the vehicle's pure electric mileage is greater than the current mileage, it is determined whether to feedback the full-range pure electric mode to the driver. If the vehicle's pure electric mileage is greater than the current mileage, it means that the vehicle's traversable pure electric mileage meets the mileage to reach the destination. Therefore, the full-range pure electric mode is fed back to the driver.

[0070] Through the above method, the present scheme can feedback the full-range pure electric mode to the driver. In this case, the driver can select the driving mode. After receiving the driving mode selected by the driver, the present scheme can determine the driving mode selected by the driver, that is, determine whether the vehicle driving mode currently selected by the driver is the full-range pure electric mode. If it is determined that the vehicle driving mode currently selected by the driver is the full-range pure electric mode, the present scheme controls the vehicle's clutch to be in a disengaged state, so that the transmission force generated by the drive motor transmission assembly stops at the isolator, and the transmission force will not be transmitted to the engine transmission assembly through the clutch. Therefore, in the pure electric mode, the drive motor only generates driving force for the drive motor transmission assembly, and the engine transmission assembly will not follow when only the drive motor is working, thereby reducing the resistance generated by the mechanical parts of the engine due to following when the drive motor is driving, thereby reducing energy loss and improving the vehicle's pure electric cruising range.

[0071] The power control method designed above, this scheme is by setting the clutch on the output shaft, and the clutch is located between the engine transmission assembly and the drive motor transmission assembly. In this way, when the driver chooses the full-time pure electric driving mode, this scheme controls the clutch to be in a disengaged state. The clutch in the disengaged state isolates the transmission force of the drive motor transmission assembly, so that the transmission force of the drive motor transmission assembly will not be transmitted to the engine transmission assembly. In this way, the rotation of the mechanical parts of the engine transmission assembly is completely cut off by the isolator, thereby reducing the resistance generated by the mechanical parts of the engine due to the follow-up when the drive motor is driven, thereby reducing energy loss and improving the pure electric cruising range of the vehicle.

[0072] In an optional implementation of this embodiment, when this solution executes step S520, this solution can also monitor the vehicle during the subsequent driving process, so as to make the driving of the vehicle more reasonable, such as Figure 6 As shown, the following methods may be included:

[0073] Step S600: Monitor the remaining power of the vehicle.

[0074] Step S610: Determine whether the remaining power of the vehicle is lower than a first preset power. If so, go to step S620.

[0075] Step S620: Determine whether the remaining power of the vehicle is lower than the second preset power, if yes, go to step S650; if no, go to step S630. Step S630: Send a prompt message.

[0076] Step S640: Determine whether the change confirmation information selected by the driver is received, if so, go to step S650.

[0077] Step S650: Control the clutch to be in an engaged state, and control the drive motor and the engine to provide driving power for the vehicle.

[0078] In the above implementation, the first preset power is greater than the second preset power, for example, the first preset power can be 80%, and the second preset power can be 15%. After controlling the vehicle to be in full-range pure electric mode, this solution can monitor the remaining power of the vehicle in real time. If it is determined that the remaining power of the vehicle is lower than the first preset power but not lower than the second preset power, it means that although the current power of the vehicle has consumed some, it is enough for the user to drive to the destination. In this case, this solution can issue a prompt message, which is used to prompt the driver whether to change the current driving mode to a hybrid driving mode. The hybrid driving mode is a mode in which both the engine and the drive motor start hybrid driving the vehicle. This solution can monitor the user's selection operation. If the user chooses the driving mode or the pure electric mode, this solution continues to drive in the pure electric mode. If the user changes the driving mode to the hybrid driving mode, this solution controls the clutch to engage, and then controls the drive motor and the engine to provide driving power for the vehicle, so that the vehicle changes to the hybrid driving mode.

[0079] When it is determined that the remaining power of the vehicle is lower than the second preset power, it means that the remaining power of the vehicle is at a low level. In order to avoid the vehicle being unable to reach the destination due to low power, this solution directly controls the clutch to engage, and then controls the drive motor and the engine to provide driving power for the vehicle, so that the vehicle changes to a hybrid driving mode, thereby saving the remaining power of the vehicle.

[0080] In the above implementation mode, after the vehicle is in full-time pure electric mode, this scheme monitors the remaining power of the vehicle in real time, and when the remaining power is lower than a first preset power, feedback is given to the driver to prompt the driver to change the driving mode, so that when the driver changes the driving mode, the hybrid driving mode is adopted, and when the remaining power is lower than a second preset power, the vehicle is forced to change to the hybrid driving mode, thereby saving the remaining power of the vehicle and improving the reliability of the vehicle's driving.

[0081] For example, when the remaining power of the vehicle is less than 80%, this solution will issue a prompt message to remind the driver. At this time, the power mode can be determined based on the driver's choice. When the remaining power of the vehicle is less than 15%, this solution will force the clutch to engage, and then control the drive motor and engine to provide driving power for the vehicle, so that the vehicle changes to hybrid driving mode, thereby saving the remaining power of the vehicle.

[0083] The power control device designed as above, this scheme is by setting the clutch on the output shaft, and the clutch is located between the engine transmission assembly and the drive motor transmission assembly. In this way, when the driver selects the full-time pure electric driving mode, this scheme controls the clutch to be in a disengaged state. The clutch in the disengaged state isolates the transmission force of the drive motor transmission assembly, so that the transmission force of the drive motor transmission assembly will not be transmitted to the engine transmission assembly. In this way, the rotation of the mechanical parts of the engine transmission assembly is completely cut off by the isolator, thereby reducing the resistance generated by the mechanical parts of the engine due to the follow-up when the drive motor is driven, thereby reducing energy loss and improving the pure electric cruising range of the vehicle.

[0086] In an optional implementation manner of this embodiment, the judgment module 710 is also used to determine whether the change confirmation information selected by the driver is received; the control module 720 is also used to control the clutch to be in an engaged state and control the drive motor and the engine to provide driving power for the vehicle when the judgment module 710 determines that the change confirmation information selected by the driver is received.
