Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of hybrid vehicle transmissions, and in particular relates to a transverse torque vector transmission for a three-motor hybrid vehicle. Background Art

[0002] At present, against the backdrop of the energy and environmental crisis, automobile companies around the world are vigorously promoting the research and development of new energy vehicles, especially electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles. The electrification of power systems has become an irreversible technological trend. At present, pure electric vehicles still have problems such as short battery life, long charging time, and short battery life. Hybrid vehicles still dominate the market. Therefore, major automobile manufacturers focus their investment on developing advanced hybrid systems. The configuration of the hybrid system determines the performance of hybrid vehicles in terms of power, economy, and other aspects.

[0003] There are three main schemes for dual-motor hybrid systems: series, parallel and hybrid. The hybrid technology route here is divided into electronically controlled stepless (ECVT) hybrid system and series and parallel structure hybrid system. Among them, the electronically controlled stepless (ECVT) technology represented by a certain company's THS system is highly complex, difficult to manufacture, and expensive, and it cannot achieve complete decoupling of the engine and motor drive, and cannot achieve the best fuel economy; the series-parallel system represented by a certain company's IMMD technology has a simple structure, can achieve complete decoupling of the engine drive and the motor drive, and has good fuel economy, but compared with the THS power split configuration, its generator can only be used for power generation, and cannot output torque to the wheel end together with the drive motor, and the power cannot be fully utilized. In addition, the engine drive route and the engine power generation route of this configuration are both single gears, which cannot take into account both the engine direct drive economy at high speed and the parallel drive power at low speed, and at the same time cannot fully utilize the efficient working range of the generator power generation. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a transverse torque vectoring transmission for a three-motor hybrid vehicle. On the basis of a dual-motor hybrid reducer, a drive motor is added through a planetary gearbox to realize torque vectoring distribution and couple the engine power. The torque can be accurately transmitted to each drive wheel, effectively meeting people's stringent requirements for vehicle maneuverability. Through the application of multiple working modes, the present invention can enable the vehicle to adapt to various working conditions, ensure that the vehicle has good fuel economy, and has a torque vectoring distribution function, which increases the steering effect of the vehicle, stabilizes the dynamic performance of the vehicle, helps the vehicle enter a corner, reduces the driver's operating intensity, and can reduce the understeering phenomenon of the vehicle, thereby improving the dynamic performance of the vehicle.

[0055] Table 1 Control relationship between each transmission working mode and main control components

[0056] Working Mode Idle power generation Stop and start Pure electric drive Series drive Parallel drive Braking energy recovery Drive motor × × √ √ √ √ engine √ √ × √ √ × dynamo √ √ × √ × × Brakes √ √ √ √ × √ Synchronizer × × × × √ ×

[0057] like Figure 2 As shown, when the transmission is in the idle power generation working mode: the brake 54 is in a locked state, the synchronizer 63 is in a disconnected state, the No. 1 drive motor 1 and the No. 2 drive motor 2 are not working, and the engine 3 and the generator 4 are in a working state, wherein the driving force output by the engine 3 is transmitted to the engine shaft 60, and then transmitted to the generator shaft 70 through the No. 6 gear pair 86, driving the generator 4 to convert the driving force of the engine 3 into electricity, thereby realizing idle power generation.

[0058] like Figure 3 As shown, when the transmission is in the stop-start working mode: the brake 54 is in a locked state, the synchronizer 63 is in a disconnected state, the No. 1 drive motor 1 and the No. 2 drive motor 2 are not working, and the engine 3 and the generator 4 are in a working state, wherein the driving force output by the generator 4 is transmitted to the generator shaft 70, and then transmitted to the engine shaft 60 through the No. 6 gear pair 86, and then transmitted to the engine 3 to start the engine 3.

[0059] like Figure 4As shown, when the transmission is in the pure electric drive working mode: the brake 54 is in a locked state, the synchronizer 63 is in a disconnected state, the No. 1 drive motor 1 and the No. 2 drive motor 2 are in a working state, and the engine 3 and the generator 4 are not working. Among them, after the driving force output by the No. 1 drive motor 1 and the No. 2 drive motor 2 is transmitted to the drive motor shaft 10, it is transmitted to the intermediate shaft 20 through the No. 1 gear pair 81, and then transmitted to the ring gear 30 through the No. 2 gear pair 82, and then transmitted to the planetary carrier 40 through the No. 3 gear pair 83, and then transmitted to the wheel, so as to realize the pure electric drive of the vehicle and achieve the effect of zero fuel consumption and zero emission. At the same time, in this working mode, because the brake 54 is in a locked state and the synchronizer 63 is in a disconnected state, the sun gear shaft 50, the engine shaft 60 and the generator shaft 70 do not rotate with it, which can effectively reduce the bearing life loss caused by dragging and idling.

[0060] like Figure 5 As shown, when the transmission is in the serial drive working mode: the brake 54 is in the locked state, the synchronizer 63 is in the disconnected state, the No. 1 drive motor 1, the No. 2 drive motor 2, the engine 3 and the generator 4 are all in the working state, wherein the driving force output by the engine 3 is transmitted to the engine shaft 60, and then transmitted to the generator shaft 70 through the No. 6 gear pair 86, driving the generator 4 to convert the driving force of the engine 3 into electricity, and the converted electricity directly acts on the No. 1 drive motor 1 and the No. 2 drive motor 2 to generate driving force, and the driving force output by the No. 1 drive motor 1 and the No. 2 drive motor 2 is transmitted to the drive motor shaft 10, and then transmitted to the intermediate shaft 20 through the No. 1 gear pair 81, and then transmitted to the ring gear 30 through the No. 2 gear pair 82, and then transmitted to the planetary carrier 40 through the No. 3 gear pair 83, and then transmitted to the wheels, thereby realizing the serial drive of the vehicle. At this time, the engine remains in the high-efficiency range, achieving a higher power generation efficiency.

[0061] like Figure 6As shown, when the transmission is in parallel drive working mode: the brake 54 is in a released state, the synchronizer 63 is in an engaged state, the No. 1 drive motor 1, the No. 2 drive motor 2 and the engine 3 are in working state, and the generator 4 works selectively, wherein the driving force output by the No. 1 drive motor 1 and the No. 2 drive motor 2 is transmitted to the drive motor shaft 10, and then transmitted to the intermediate shaft 20 through the No. 1 gear pair 81, and then transmitted to the ring gear 30 through the No. 2 gear pair 82; the driving force output by the engine 3 is transmitted to the engine shaft 60, and then transmitted to the first engine gear 61 through the synchronizer 63, and then transmitted to the sun gear shaft 50 through the No. 5 gear pair 85; at this time, the power on the drive motor side is transmitted to the planetary carrier 40 through the No. 3 gear pair 83, and the power on the engine side is transmitted to the No. 4 gear pair 84, and then transmitted to the wheels, thereby realizing the parallel drive of the vehicle. This working mode is suitable for working conditions with high vehicle speed and acceleration requirements. At the same time, in this working mode, the engine 3 is maintained in a high efficiency range, and the excess power is selectively transmitted to the generator shaft 70 via the sixth gear pair 86, and then converted into electricity by the generator 3, achieving higher thermal efficiency.

[0062] like Figure 7 As shown, when the transmission is in the braking energy recovery working mode: the brake 54 is in a locked state, the synchronizer 63 is in a disconnected state, the No. 1 drive motor 1 and the No. 2 drive motor 2 are in a working state, the engine 3 and the generator 4 are not working. At this time, the driving force from the wheel end is transmitted to the planetary carrier 40, transmitted to the ring gear 30 through the No. 3 gear pair 83, and then transmitted to the intermediate shaft 20 through the No. 2 gear pair 82, and then transmitted to the drive motor shaft 10 through the No. 1 gear pair 81, and acts in the opposite direction on the No. 1 drive motor 1 and the No. 2 drive motor 2. At this time, the No. 1 drive motor 1 and the No. 2 drive motor 2 are in a power generation state, charging the energy storage device, realizing braking energy recovery, and saving energy consumption of the whole vehicle.
