Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of speed reducers, and in particular to an electrically driven two-speed speed reducer and a control method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In the field of electric vehicles, most electric drive systems on the market currently consist of a drive motor + a single-speed reducer. However, with the increasing demand for vehicle performance, the demand for two-speed reducers is also gradually increasing. For example, for ordinary electric vehicles, it is necessary to reduce medium and high-speed energy consumption to increase the cruising range; for pure electric sports cars, higher acceleration and maximum speed are required; for large pure electric SUVs or pickups, greater low-speed wheel torque is required. A single-speed reducer with a fixed transmission ratio can no longer meet the needs of all the above working conditions. The two-speed reducer can effectively improve the power and economy of the entire vehicle through two speed ratios.

[0003] For ordinary electric vehicles, reducing medium and high speed energy consumption is the key to improving driving range. Due to its fixed transmission ratio, it is difficult for a single-speed reducer to achieve the best energy consumption performance in all speed ranges. Especially in the medium and high speed range, energy consumption may increase due to the inability to adapt to a wider range of working conditions. For high-performance models such as pure electric sports cars, they have extremely high requirements for acceleration and maximum speed. Single-speed reducers are limited by their transmission ratio range and may not provide sufficient torque amplification effect, thus affecting the acceleration performance of the vehicle. At the same time, when pursuing the highest speed, single-speed reducers may also be limited because they cannot match the high-speed characteristics of the motor. For large pure electric SUVs or pickup trucks, they usually require greater low-speed wheel torque to cope with complex road conditions and heavy load requirements. The torque amplification effect of a single-speed reducer at low speed is limited, and it may not meet the needs of these models under low-speed and high-torque working conditions. The emergence of two-speed reducers has become an effective solution. By introducing two speed ratios, the two-speed reducer can switch the speed ratio according to different working conditions and needs, thereby achieving a dual improvement in the power and economy of the whole vehicle.

[0004] In terms of power, a two-speed reducer can provide a larger torque amplification effect at low speeds to meet the needs of large or high-performance models under low-speed and high-torque conditions; at high speeds, it can switch to a smaller speed ratio to match the high-speed characteristics of the motor to achieve higher acceleration and maximum speed. In terms of economy, a two-speed reducer can reduce the energy consumption of the entire vehicle by optimizing the speed ratio matching. Especially in the medium and high speed sections, by selecting a suitable speed ratio to reduce the energy loss of the motor, the cruising range can be effectively improved. The application of two-speed reducers in the field of electric vehicles has significant advantages and necessity. It can not only improve the power and economy of the entire vehicle, but also better meet the needs of different models and working conditions. With the continuous advancement of electric vehicle technology and the increasing requirements of consumers for vehicle performance, two-speed reducers are expected to be more widely used and promoted in the field of electric vehicles.

[0005] With the development of reducer technology, there are two main schemes for two-speed reducers at present. One is parallel shaft two-stage reduction, using synchronizers to achieve the switching of two gears, such as the structure described in patent CN117404443A. This scheme has a relatively simple structure and high transmission efficiency, but there is power interruption in its shifting process; the other scheme is a combination of a parallel shaft reduction gear set and a planetary gear set, using the characteristics of the planetary gear set, through the control of the sun gear, planetary gear or ring gear by the clutch and brake to form two speed ratios. There is no power interruption in the shifting process of this scheme, but the existing schemes mostly use planetary gear sets with NW type, WW type and other structures, which are not compact enough, especially in the axial size, there is still room for optimization.

[0006] In the traditional technology, for example, the structure described in patent CN117404443A is relatively simple in structure and has high transmission efficiency, but there is power interruption in its shifting process; another solution is a combination of a parallel shaft reduction gear set and a planetary gear set, which utilizes the characteristics of the planetary gear set and controls the sun gear, planetary gear or ring gear through a clutch and a brake to form two speed ratios.

[0007] However, the current reducer structure mostly adopts planetary gear sets of NW type, WW type and other structures, which are not compact enough, especially in terms of axial dimension, and there is still room for optimization. Summary of the invention

[0008] Based on this, an electrically driven two-speed reducer and a control method thereof are provided.

[0009] The present invention provides an electrically driven two-speed reducer, the two-speed reducer comprising:

[0010] Input shaft, primary reduction gear set, sun gear control shaft, clutch, brake, NGW type planetary gear set, 3rd stage reduction gear set and output shaft;

[0011] Among them, the first-stage reduction gear set includes an input driving gear and an input driven gear; the NGW-type planetary gear set includes a sun gear, a planetary gear, a ring gear and a planet carrier; and the third-stage reduction gear set includes an output driving gear and an output driven gear.

[0012] The first-stage reduction gear set and the third-stage reduction gear set are both configured as helical cylindrical gears.

[0013] The NGW type planetary gear set realizes the speed ratio i2. Assuming the characteristic coefficient of the planetary gear set is α, when the sun gear and the ring gear have no relative rotation connection, the transmission ratio i2 of the planetary gear set is 1; when the sun gear is braked, the transmission ratio i2 of the planetary gear set is (1+α) / α.

[0014] The clutch includes a clutch active end and a clutch driven end, and the brake includes a brake active end and a brake driven end.

[0015] The input shaft is coaxially fixedly connected with the input driving gear; the input driven gear is coaxially fixedly connected with the ring gear; the output shaft is coaxially fixedly connected with the output driving gear and the planet carrier.

[0016] The input shaft driving gear meshes with the input shaft driven gear to form a first-stage reduction gear set to achieve a transmission ratio of i1.

[0017] The output driving gear meshes with the output driven gear to form a three-stage reduction gear set to achieve a transmission ratio of i3.

[0018] The sun gear control shaft is coaxially fixedly connected with the sun gear, the clutch driven end and the brake driven end; the gear ring is coaxially fixedly connected with the clutch active end; and the brake active end is fixedly connected with the housing.

[0019] The present invention also provides a vehicle, which uses the above-mentioned two-speed reducer and also includes a driving device, a differential device, a left half-shaft and a right half-shaft. The power of the driving device is transmitted to the wheels connected to the left half-shaft and the right half-shaft respectively through the two-speed reducer and the differential device.

[0020] The present invention also provides a control method for an electrically driven two-speed reducer, comprising the following steps:

[0021] The input shaft driving gear meshes with the input shaft driven gear to form a first-stage reduction gear set to achieve a transmission ratio of i1;

[0022] The sun gear, planetary gear, ring gear and planet carrier together form an NGW type planetary gear set; the power is input from the ring gear through the first-stage reduction gear set and output from the planet carrier, forming a secondary transmission ratio i2;

[0023] The clutch driving end is engaged with the clutch driven end, which can connect the sun gear and the ring gear without relative rotation. In this state, the transmission ratio of the planetary gear set is i2=1;

[0024] The active end of the brake is engaged with the driven end of the brake, which can stop the sun gear from rotating, that is, the speed is 0. In this state, the transmission ratio of the planetary gear set i2 = (1 + α) / α;

[0025] The output driving gear meshes with the output driven gear to form a three-stage reduction gear set to achieve a transmission ratio of i3;

[0026] Control the active end of the brake to engage with the driven end of the brake, and at the same time control the active end of the clutch to separate from the driven end of the clutch, so that the two-speed reducer can achieve a first-speed ratio of I 1st =i1×i2×i3=i1×(1+α) / α×i3;

[0027] The clutch active end is controlled to engage with the clutch driven end, and the brake active end is controlled to separate with the brake driven end. The two-speed reducer realizes the second-speed ratio I 2nd =i1×i2×i3=i1×i3;

[0028] Control the clutch active end and the clutch driven end to separate, and control the brake active end and the brake driven end to separate, so that the two-speed reducer can achieve neutral gear;

[0029] The clutch active end is controlled to engage with the clutch driven end, and the brake active end is controlled to engage with the brake driven end, and the two-speed reducer realizes the parking gear.

[0030] The above-mentioned electric drive two-speed reducer and control method thereof utilizes the combination of parallel shaft reduction gear set and NGW type planetary gear set to form a reducer with two driving gears and no power interruption during the gear shifting process, with one neutral gear and one parking gear; and at the same time, it has a more compact axial size. The NGW type planetary gear set used is the best choice among many planetary gear mechanisms, with high efficiency, small size, simple structure, easy manufacturing, and wide application.

A control method for an electrically driven two-speed reducer, used for controlling the two-speed reducer according to any one of claims 1 to 8, characterized in that: The steps include: The input shaft driving gear (21) meshes with the input shaft driven gear (22) to form a first-stage reduction gear set (2) to achieve a transmission ratio i1; The sun gear (61), the planetary gear (62), the ring gear (63), and the planet carrier (64) together form an NGW type planetary gear set (6); power is input from the ring gear (63) through the primary reduction gear set (2) and output from the planet carrier (64), forming a secondary transmission ratio i2; The clutch active end (41) is engaged with the clutch driven end (42), so that the sun gear (61) and the ring gear (63) are connected without relative rotation. In this state, the transmission ratio i2 of the planetary gear set (6) is 1; The active end (51) of the brake is engaged with the driven end (52) of the brake, which can stop the rotation of the sun gear (61), that is, the rotation speed is 0. In this state, the transmission ratio i2 of the planetary gear set (6) is (1+α) / α; The output driving gear (71) meshes with the output driven gear (72) to form a three-stage reduction gear set (7) to achieve a transmission ratio i3; The brake active end (51) is controlled to engage with the brake driven end (52), and the clutch active end (41) is controlled to disengage with the clutch driven end (42), so that the two-speed reducer realizes the first gear ratio I 1st =i1×i2×i3=i1×(1+α) / α×i3; The clutch active end (41) is controlled to engage with the clutch driven end (42), and the brake active end (51) is controlled to disengage with the brake driven end (52), so that the two-speed reducer realizes the second-speed ratio I 2nd =i1×i2×i3=i1×i3; Controlling the clutch active end (41) and the clutch driven end (42) to separate, and controlling the brake active end (51) and the brake driven end (52) to separate, so that the two-speed reducer achieves neutral gear; The clutch active end (41) is controlled to engage with the clutch driven end (42), and the brake active end (51) is controlled to engage with the brake driven end (52), so that the two-speed reducer realizes the parking gear.
