[0094] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

[0096] NVH: It is the abbreviation of Noise, Vibration and Harshness, which refers to noise, vibration and acoustic roughness.
[0097] A dual-motor powertrain includes two drive motors, two reducers and a dual-motor controller. The two reducers are arranged between the two drive motors along the axial direction of the dual-motor powertrain. The overall housing of the dual-motor powertrain includes two integrated housings and an intermediate housing. Each integrated housing includes a motor housing, a reducer housing and a connecting plate. Each motor housing is used to fix a stator of a drive motor and accommodate a rotor of a drive motor. Each reducer housing is used to accommodate a gear shaft assembly of a reducer. The reducer housings of the two integrated housings are respectively fixed to the two sides of the intermediate housing. Among them, the dual-motor controller includes an electrical component and two power modules. The electrical component is used to receive the direct current output by the power battery and to transmit direct current to the two power modules respectively. Each power module is used to transmit alternating current to a drive motor. The intermediate housing includes a receiving groove, which is recessed toward the gap between the two reducers. The receiving groove is used to accommodate the electrical component. Each connecting plate is used to enclose a portion of the outer peripheral wall of a motor housing of an integrated housing and a portion of the outer wall of a reducer housing to form an electric control groove, and each electric control groove is used to accommodate a power module.
[0098] In the present application, the reducer housing that accommodates the reducer is respectively fixed to the two sides of the intermediate housing, so that the intermediate housing can use the gap between the two reducers to form a receiving groove, and the electrical components of the dual motor controller can be accommodated in the receiving groove, thereby reducing the space for arranging the electrical components of the dual motor controller in the two electric control grooves. A part of the outer peripheral wall of the motor housing of an integrated housing and a part of the outer wall of the reducer housing are reused with a connecting plate to form an electric control groove, and the space between the reducer housing and the motor housing is used to accommodate the power module of the dual motor controller. In the present application, the electrical components of the dual motor controller are accommodated by the receiving groove of the intermediate housing, and the two electric control grooves are used to accommodate two power modules respectively, and the gap between the two reducers and the space between the motor housing and the reducer housing are fully utilized to accommodate the components of the dual motor controller, which can not only improve the integration and structural strength of the overall housing of the dual motor powertrain, but also make the dual motor powertrain more integrated and compact, thereby reducing the volume of the dual motor powertrain.
[0099] The dual-motor powertrain provided in the embodiment of the present application is applied to electric vehicles to improve the overall performance of the electric vehicles.
[0100] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the electric vehicle 1 provided in an embodiment of the present application.
[0101] In one embodiment, the electric vehicle 1 includes a dual-motor powertrain 10, a frame 20, a power battery 30, and wheels 40. Figure 1As shown, the dual-motor powertrain 10 is fixed to the vehicle frame 20. The dual-motor powertrain 10 is used to receive power from the power battery 30 and to drive the wheels 40. In the embodiment of the present application, the power battery 30 may also be referred to as a battery pack. In the embodiment of the present application, the electric vehicle 1 refers to a wheeled device driven or towed by a power device.
[0102] Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of a dual-motor powertrain 10 provided in an embodiment of the present application, Figure 3 It is another schematic diagram of the dual-motor powertrain 10 provided in an embodiment of the present application.
[0103] In one embodiment, if Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the dual-motor powertrain 10 includes two drive motors 11 , two reducers 12 and a dual-motor controller 13 .
[0104] In the embodiment of the present application, the dual motor controller 13 is used to receive the direct current transmitted by the power battery 30. The dual motor controller 13 converts the high voltage direct current into alternating current and transmits it to the two drive motors 11. The motor shafts of the two drive motors 11 are respectively connected to the input shafts of the two reducers 12, and the output shafts of the two reducers 12 are respectively connected to the two wheels 40 to drive the wheels 40 to move. In the embodiment of the present application, the drive motor 11 also includes a rotor and a stator. After receiving the alternating current, the stator drives the rotor to rotate, thereby driving the motor shaft to rotate.
[0105] Figure 4 It is another schematic diagram of the dual-motor powertrain 10 provided in an embodiment of the present application.
[0106] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, the dual motor controller 13 includes two power modules 1301, two bus capacitors 1306 (such as Figure 8 As shown), two circuit boards 1302 and a control board 1303 and other electrical components.
[0107] In the embodiment of the present application, each power module 1301 is used to convert the direct current transmitted by the power battery 30 into alternating current, and transmit the alternating current to the stator winding of a drive motor 11. The control board 1303 is used to receive signals from the vehicle and transmit the signals to the two circuit boards 1302, and then control the current transmitted by the two power modules 1301 through the two circuit boards 1302, thereby controlling the operation of the two drive motors 11 and coordinating the driving of the wheels 40 on both sides of the vehicle.
[0108] In one embodiment, if Figure 4As shown, the overall housing 10a of the dual-motor powertrain 10 includes two motor housings 110 and two reducer housings 120. In the embodiment of the present application, the motor housing 110 is used to accommodate the stator, rotor and motor shaft of the drive motor 11, and the reducer housing 120 is used to accommodate the gear shaft assembly 12a of the reducer 12.
[0109] The dual-motor controller 13 for controlling the two drive motors 11 in the dual-motor powertrain includes multiple electrical components such as two power modules 1301, two bus capacitors 1306, two circuit boards 1302 and a control board 1303, so that the dual-motor controller 13 occupies a large space in the dual-motor powertrain 10, making the dual-motor powertrain 10 larger in size, thereby making it difficult for the dual-motor powertrain 10 to adapt to the different layout spaces of the front and rear drive of the vehicle.
[0110] In the present application, a receiving groove is formed in the overall housing of the dual-motor powertrain 10 by utilizing the gap between the two reducers 12, and some electrical components of the dual-motor controller 13 are placed in the receiving groove 220. An electric control groove 150 is formed by reusing parts of the motor housing 110 and the reducer housing 120. The two electric control grooves 150 are respectively used to accommodate two power modules 1301 of the dual-motor controller 13. The gap between the two reducers 13 and the space between the motor housing 110 and the reducer housing 120 are fully utilized to accommodate the components of the dual-motor controller 13. This can not only improve the integration and structural strength of the overall housing 10a of the dual-motor powertrain 10, but also make the dual-motor powertrain 10 more integrated and compact, thereby reducing the volume of the dual-motor powertrain 10.
[0111] The dual-motor powertrain 10 provided in an embodiment of the present application will be described in detail below.
[0112] Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of an integrated housing 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 6 It is a schematic diagram of the intermediate housing 200 provided in an embodiment of the present application.
[0113] In one embodiment, a dual-motor powertrain 10 includes two drive motors 11, two reducers 12, and a dual-motor controller 13. Figure 3 As shown, along the axial direction O of the dual-motor powertrain 10, two reducers 12 are arranged between the two drive motors 11. The overall housing 10a of the dual-motor powertrain 10 includes two integrated housings 100 and an intermediate housing 200. Figure 5As shown, each integrated housing 100 includes a motor housing 110, a reducer housing 120 and a connecting plate 140. Each motor housing 110 is used to fix a stator of a driving motor 11 and accommodate a rotor of the driving motor 11. Each reducer housing 120 is used to accommodate a gear shaft assembly 12a of a reducer 12. Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the reducer housings 120 of the two integrated housings 100 are respectively fixed to the two side surfaces 210 of the intermediate housing 200. Figure 4 As shown, the dual motor controller 13 includes an electrical component 1304 and two power modules 1301. The electrical component 1304 is used to receive the DC power output by the power battery 30 and to deliver DC power to the two power modules 1301 respectively. Each power module 1301 is used to deliver AC power to a drive motor 11. Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the intermediate housing 200 includes a receiving groove 220, which is recessed toward the gap between the two reducers 12, and the receiving groove 220 is used to receive the electrical component 1304. Figure 5 As shown, each connecting plate 140 is used to enclose a portion of the outer peripheral wall 111 of the motor housing 110 of an integrated housing 100 and a portion of the outer wall 121 of the reducer housing 120 to form an electric control slot 150, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown, each electric control slot 150 is used to accommodate a power module 1301 .
[0114] In the embodiment of the present application, the intermediate housing 200 includes a receiving groove 220, which is recessed toward the gap between the two reducers 12, so that the gap between the two reducers 12 can be fully utilized, and the electrical component 1304 of the dual-motor controller 13 is received in the receiving groove 220, so that the electrical component 1304 of the dual-motor controller 13 and the gear component of the reducer 12 are arranged more compactly, thereby making the layout between the components of the dual-motor powertrain 10 more compact, which is conducive to reducing the overall volume of the dual-motor powertrain 10. The electrical component 1304 is received in the receiving groove 220 of the intermediate housing 200, which can reduce the number of electrical components of the dual-motor controller 13 arranged in the electric control groove 150, and reduce the space of the electric control groove 150 for accommodating other parts of the dual-motor controller 13 except the electrical component 1304, thereby reducing the volume of the electric control groove 150, and further reducing the volume of the dual-motor powertrain 10.
[0115] In an embodiment of the present application, each connecting plate 140 is used to enclose a portion of the outer peripheral wall 111 of the motor housing 110 and a portion of the outer wall 121 of the reducer housing 120 of an integrated housing 100 to form an electric control groove 150. The electric control groove 150 reuses a portion of the outer peripheral wall 111 of the motor housing 110 and a portion of the outer wall 121 of the reducer housing 120 in the integrated housing 100, so that the motor housing 110, the reducer housing 120 and the electric control groove 150 are more integrated, the integrated housing 100 is more compact and the strength is higher, which can reduce the volume of the integrated housing 100 and improve the overall strength of the dual-motor powertrain 10. Each connecting plate 140 is used to enclose a portion of the outer peripheral wall 111 of the motor housing 110 and a portion of the outer wall 121 of the reducer housing 120 of an integrated housing 100 to form an electric control slot 150, and also fully utilizes the gap space between the motor housing 110 and the reducer housing 120, so that the overall housing 10a of the dual-motor powertrain 10 is more integrated and compact, which is conducive to reducing the overall volume of the dual-motor powertrain 10 and optimizing the overall layout of the dual-motor powertrain 10 in the vehicle. It also allows the motor housing 110, the reducer housing 120, and the electric control slot 150 to be integrally cast, which can enhance the strength of the overall housing 10a of the dual-motor powertrain 10, which is conducive to improving the NVH performance of the overall housing 10a of the dual-motor powertrain 10.
[0116] In the embodiment of the present application, the electrical component 1304 is used to receive the direct current output by the power battery 30 and to deliver direct current to the two power modules 1301 respectively. Each power module 1301 is used to deliver alternating current to a drive motor 11. Each electric control slot 150 is used to accommodate a power module 1301, so that the electrical component 1304 accommodated in the accommodating slot 220 of the intermediate housing 200 can be electrically connected to the power module 1301 in the electric control slot 150 of each integrated housing 100 with a shorter cable, so that the layout of the dual-motor controller 13 is more regular. It also allows each power module 1301 to convert the direct current delivered by the electrical component 1304 into alternating current with a shorter path and deliver it to the drive motor 11 in the motor housing 110 more quickly, reducing the power loss of the dual-motor powertrain 10.
[0117] In the embodiment of the present application, the reducer housings 120 of the two integrated housings 100 are respectively fixed to the two side surfaces 210 of the intermediate housing 200, so that the intermediate housing 200 can use the gap between the two reducers 12 in the two reducer housings 120 to form a receiving groove 220, and place the electrical components 1304 of the dual motor controller 13 in the receiving groove 220, thereby reducing the space requirements of the two electric control grooves 150 for arranging the electrical components of the dual motor controller 13. The electric control groove 150 is formed by reusing part of the outer peripheral wall 111 of the motor housing 110 of the integrated housing 100 and part of the outer wall 121 of the reducer housing 120 and the connecting plate 140, which not only improves the integration and structural strength of the integrated housing 100, but also makes full use of the space between the reducer housing 120 and the motor housing 110, so that the arrangement of the electric control groove 150 does not additionally occupy the axial space of the motor housing 110 and the radial space of the reducer housing 120, thereby reducing the volume of the dual motor powertrain 10. Each electric control slot 150 is used to accommodate a power module 1301, so the two electric control slots 150 can be made of the same size, making the overall housing 10a of the dual-motor powertrain 10 more regular and the layout of the dual-motor powertrain 10 more regular.
[0118] in, Figure 5 The gear shaft assembly 12 a of the reducer 12 shown in FIG. 1 is only a schematic position of the gear shaft assembly 12 a and does not represent a specific structure.
[0119] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, the orientation of the notch 153 of each electric control slot 150 is the same as the orientation of the notch 221 of the receiving slot 220 .
[0120] In the embodiment of the present application, the direction of the slot 153 of the electric control slot 150 is the same as the direction of the slot 221 of the receiving slot 220, which is conducive to installing the electrical component 1304 and the two power modules 1301 in the receiving slot 220 of the intermediate shell 200 and the electric control slot 150 of the integrated shell 100 from the same direction, simplifying the assembly process and facilitating the maintenance and replacement of components in the dual-motor controller 13.
[0121] In one embodiment, if Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the notch 153 of each electric control slot 150 is flush with the notch 221 of the receiving slot 220. In one embodiment, the overall housing 10a of the dual-motor powertrain 10 further includes two electric control covers 130a and an intermediate cover 130b, and the notch 153 of each electric control slot 150 is flush with the notch 221 of the receiving slot 220, so that the arrangement between the intermediate housing 200 and the two integrated housings 100 is more regular, and it is also convenient for the two electric control covers 130a and the intermediate cover 130b to cover the notches 153 of the two electric control slots 150 and the notch 221 of the receiving slot 220 respectively, and it is also beneficial to prevent the electric control slot 150 from occupying too much space in the height direction of the dual-motor powertrain 10, which is beneficial to reducing the volume of the overall housing 10a of the dual-motor powertrain 10 and optimizing the layout of the dual-motor powertrain 10 in the vehicle.
[0122] Figure 7 It is another schematic diagram of the dual-motor powertrain 10 provided in an embodiment of the present application.
[0123] In one embodiment, if Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the intermediate housing 200 includes two first power holes 230, and a portion of the outer wall 121 of each reducer housing 120 includes a second power hole 1211. The two first power holes 230 are connected to the receiving slot 220, and the second power hole 1211 of each reducer housing 120 is connected to an electric control slot 150. The first power hole 230 along the axial direction O of the dual-motor powertrain 10 is used to align the second power hole 1211, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the aligned first power hole 230 and the second power hole 1211 are used to pass through a power connector 101 , and the power connector 101 is used to electrically connect the electrical component 1304 and the power module 1301 .
[0124] In the embodiment of the present application, the inner wall of each reducer housing 120 refers to the inner wall of the accommodating cavity accommodating the reducer 12, and the outer wall of each reducer housing 120 is opposite to its inner wall. Part of the outer wall 121 of each reducer housing 120 includes a second power hole 1211, so that the power connector 101 can be arranged on the part of the outer wall 121 of the reducer housing 120. The two first power holes 230 are connected to the accommodating slot 220, and the second power hole 1211 of each reducer housing 120 is connected to an electric control slot 150, so that the electrical component 1304 in the accommodating slot 220 can be electrically connected to the power module 1301 in each electric control slot 150 through the power connector 101 arranged on the first power hole 230 and the second power hole 1211, and the DC power received by the electrical component 1304 from the power battery 30 is transmitted to the power module 1301 through the power connector 101.

The shielding cover 104 is used to cover part of the power connector 101 between the first power hole 230, the second power hole 1211 and the power module 1301. Since the power connector 101 is used to transmit high-voltage direct current, and the communication cable 103 accommodated by the first power hole 230 and the second power hole 1211 has the same arrangement path as part of the power connector 101, a shielding cover 104 is provided on part of the power connector 101 between the first power hole 230 and the second power hole 1211 and the power module 1301 to isolate the power connector 101 from the communication cable 103.

Among them, the plastic part 101a includes an undercut structure 101c corresponding to the window 1044, and the shielding cover 104 forms a window 1044 at a position corresponding to the undercut structure 101c. When the shielding cover 104 is downwardly loaded into the electric control slot 150, the positions of both sides of the shielding cover 104 are limited under the elastic force of the spring sheets 1042 on both sides of the shielding cover 104, and the undercut structure 101c on the plastic part 101a prevents the shielding cover 104 from falling out, thereby stably fixing the shielding cover 104 in the electric control slot 150.
