Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of automobile power chassis, and in particular to a torque vector distribution system adopting a parallel axis structure. Background Art
[0002] Automobile safety performance is an important topic in automobile research. As one of the representative technologies of automobile active safety technology, the Electronic Stability Program (ESP) applies braking force to the wheels on one side of the car to generate additional yaw torque to control the vehicle dynamically and improve the handling stability of the car. Since ESP uses the principle of differential braking to control the vehicle, it will have a negative impact on the vehicle's driving performance and economy during operation, causing power loss. Therefore, researchers proposed torque vector distribution technology to solve the energy consumption and driving experience problems in vehicle yaw dynamics control.
[0003] For example, the authorization announcement number CN106195193B discloses a dual-clutch planetary electric differential, which relates to the field of automotive technology, including a main differential, a dual planetary gear planetary gear, a torque distribution left planetary gear, a torque distribution right planetary gear, a reduction planetary gear, a power clutch, a torque distribution clutch and a motor; by controlling the engagement and separation of the torque distribution clutch and the power clutch, the switching of different working modes can be achieved. However, the layout of the automobile differential is unreasonable. When it is in a high turn or on a road with poor adhesion conditions or in a bad state, its stability is poor, and it is prone to slipping, side sliding and poor climbing ability, which poses a great safety hazard. Traditional brakes cannot meet the high-precision torque response control requirements of the whole vehicle. In addition, in the industry, the motor is usually set on one side of the first semi-axle, and its motor shaft is set parallel to the first semi-axle. Such a layout leads to a large radial space occupation, limited vehicle layout, and is not conducive to a reasonable layout, which has great limitations. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0023] The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the specific embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, these embodiments are not limited to the present invention, and any structural, methodological, or functional changes made by a person skilled in the art based on these embodiments are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0024] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with embodiments.
[0025] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the present invention discloses a torque vector distribution system using a parallel shaft structure, including a differential 1. Like the prior art, the differential is powered and connected to a main power drive mechanism, which can be electric, hybrid, or other feasible solutions.
[0026] A left half shaft 2 is disposed on one side of the differential 1, and a right half shaft 3 is disposed on the other side. The differential 1 is used to enable the wheels disposed on the left half shaft 2 and the right half shaft 3 to achieve different rotation speeds.
[0027] A vector motor 4 is provided on one side of the differential 1, and the vector motor 4 is electrically connected to the battery, and the motor shaft of the vector motor 4 is parallel to the left half shaft 2. In the present invention, the motor shaft of the vector motor 4 is arranged in parallel with the differential half shaft, which can greatly reduce the axial size, facilitate reasonable layout, take into account the power and economy of the whole vehicle to the greatest extent, and make the structure more compact. In addition, the system has little modification to the traditional differential, low modification cost, and wide applicability.
[0028] In the present invention, a driven gear 9 is sleeved on the left half shaft 2, and the vector motor 4 transmits power to the driven gear 9 through the linkage assembly 8. After the driven gear 9 receives the power, it transmits the power to the left half shaft 1 and the housing of the differential 1 respectively through the transmission assembly.
[0029] Specifically, the transmission assembly includes a first planetary gear 5 and a second planetary gear 6, and the first planetary gear 5 and the second planetary gear 6 share the same planetary carrier 7. By sharing a planetary carrier, the double planetary gears can also reduce the number of parts, further reduce weight and enhance heat dissipation capacity, achieve overall lightweight, and at the same time, reduce costs.
[0030] Of course, more importantly, according to the speed ratio equation, it can be found that the rotation speed of the planetary carrier in the present invention is lower than the differential speed. When the rotation speed of the planetary carrier is low, the movement of the planetary gear driven by it is relatively smoother, the meshing between the planetary gear and the half-shaft gear is more stable, the impact and loss during the power transmission process are reduced, so that the system does not need to overcome a large additional resistance to transmit power, and the drag torque will also be smaller. Furthermore, the reduction of drag torque means that the power output by the engine can be more effectively transmitted to the wheels. When the vehicle is turning, the differential can more flexibly adjust the rotation speed of the wheels on both sides, so that the speed difference between the inner wheel and the outer wheel is more in line with the actual driving needs, the steering of the vehicle is more precise and stable, and the phenomena of jamming and tail swinging during steering are reduced, thereby improving the vehicle's handling performance and driving safety.
[0031] In the first embodiment of the present invention, the first ring gear 51 of the first planetary gear set 5 is fixedly connected to the left half shaft 2, and the second ring gear 61 of the second planetary gear set 6 is fixedly connected to the housing of the differential 1. The above arrangement has a torque distribution function, taking into account the energy consumption problem and driving experience in yaw dynamics control; it can effectively improve the economy, handling stability and active safety of the car. The first ring gear is connected to the differential, which can reduce the intermediate transmission components and improve the structural rigidity. The second ring gear is directly connected to the left half shaft, shortening the power transmission path and reducing energy loss. In the present invention, the first ring gear and the second ring gear are respectively connected to the housing and the left half shaft of the differential 1 for power output. When the helical gear is used, the thrust bearing can be miniaturized and can be arranged on both sides of the connecting plate. No additional parts are required to guide the axial force of the ring gear. The first ring gear and the second ring gear can be radially fixed on the existing structure to improve the NVH performance. In addition, the ring gear is the largest diameter component in the planetary gear, while the planetary gear is smaller in size. According to the gear transmission principle, the power will be transmitted to the ring gear through the planetary gear, thereby obtaining a larger speed ratio. The ring gear is used for transmission in the transmission assembly, resulting in a larger speed ratio, which can reduce the overall speed of the entire transmission assembly, greatly reduce the generation of heat, reduce the oxidation and deterioration of the oil, reduce the lubrication performance and the aging of the rubber seal, and maximize the safety. This is an unparalleled advantage in the existing technology.
[0032] like Figure 1 The figure shows the first embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, the first planetary row 5 includes a first sun gear 52 fixedly connected to the driven gear 9, and the two can be fixedly connected by a fixed hollow shaft.

[0033] The linkage assembly 8 includes a linkage shaft 81 arranged between the left half shaft 2 and the motor shaft of the vector motor 4, and a linkage gear 82 and a transmission gear 83 are fixedly provided on the linkage shaft 81. The linkage gear 82 is meshed with the driving gear 41 fixedly arranged on the motor shaft of the vector motor 4, and the transmission gear 83 is meshed with the driven gear 9.
[0034] In the first embodiment, the planet carrier 7 is located inside the second planet gear 63 and the first planet gear 53 and is connected to both.
[0035] The working process of the first embodiment is briefly described below: When the vehicle is running normally, the first planetary gear 5 and the second planetary gear 6 are idling without load, and the vector motor 4 is not running.
[0036] When the vehicle is turning, there is a speed difference between the left and right half shafts, the vector motor 4 is started, and the driving gear 41 on the motor shaft drives the linkage gear 82 to rotate, the linkage gear 82 rotates and drives the transmission gear 83 to rotate through the linkage shaft 81, the transmission gear 83 rotates and drives the first sun gear 52 to rotate through the driven gear, the first sun gear 52 rotates and drives the first planetary gear 53 meshed with it to rotate, the first planetary gear 53 rotates and transmits power to the first ring gear 51 and transmits power to the second planetary gear 63 through the planet carrier 7, the first ring gear 51 drives the left half shaft 2 to rotate; the second planetary gear 63 transmits power to the housing of the differential 1 through the second ring gear 61 meshed with it, so that a "differential torque" effect is formed between the two half shafts of the differential. .

[0040] The working process of the third embodiment is briefly described below: When the vehicle is running normally, the first planetary gear 5 and the second planetary gear 6 are idling without load, and the vector motor 4 is not running.
[0041] When the vehicle is turning, a speed difference occurs between the left and right half shafts, and the vector motor 4 is started, and the idler gear 89 is driven to rotate through the driving gear 41 on the motor shaft. The idler gear 89 rotates to drive the transmission gear 83 to rotate, and the driven gear rotates to drive the first sun gear 52 to rotate. The first sun gear 52 rotates to drive the first planetary gear 53 meshing therewith to rotate. The first planetary gear 53 rotates to transmit power to the first ring gear 51 and to the second planetary gear 63 through the planetary carrier 7. The first ring gear 51 drives the left half shaft 2 to rotate; the second planetary gear 63 transmits power to the housing of the differential 1 through the second ring gear 61 meshing therewith, so that a "differential torque" effect is formed between the two half shafts of the differential.
[0042] like Figure 4 The fourth embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. 1 , which is different from the third embodiment in that the planet carrier is arranged in a position, the planet carrier 7 is located outside the second planetary gear 63 and the first planetary gear 53, and the first gear ring 51 and the second gear ring 61 are arranged opposite to each other. The working process is similar to that of the third embodiment, and will not be described in detail here.

The disconnect device can be a dog clutch, a sliding clutch, or a friction clutch. Of course, it can also be other structures. The specific working process will be described in detail later.
[0044] like Figure 5 The fifth embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. 1 . Specifically, the first planetary row 5 includes a first sun gear 52 pivotally arranged on the torque transfer mechanism housing, and a first planetary gear 53 meshing with the first sun gear 51 and the first sun gear 52 is provided between the first gear ring 51 and the first sun gear 52; the second planetary row 6 includes a second sun gear 62 fixedly connected to the driven gear 9, and a second planetary gear 63 meshing with the second sun gear 62 is provided between the second gear ring 61 and the second sun gear 62, and the second planetary gear 63 and the first planetary gear 53 are coaxially connected through a planet carrier 7.

[0045] In the fifth embodiment, the planet carrier 7 is located inside the second planetary gear 63 and the first planetary gear 53 and is connected to both.
[0046] The working process of the fifth embodiment is briefly described below: When the vehicle is running normally, the first planetary gear 5 and the second planetary gear 6 are idling without load, and the vector motor 4 is not running.
[0047] When the vehicle is turning, a speed difference occurs between the left and right half shafts, and the vector motor 4 is started, and the driving gear 41 on the motor shaft drives the linkage gear 82 to rotate. The linkage gear 82 rotates and drives the transmission gear 83 to rotate through the linkage shaft 81. The transmission gear 83 rotates and drives the second sun gear 62 to rotate through the driven gear. The second sun gear 62 rotates and drives the second planetary gear 63 meshing therewith to rotate. The second planetary gear 63 rotates to transmit power to the second ring gear 61 and to the first planetary gear 53 through the planetary carrier 7. The second ring gear 61 drives the left half shaft 2 to rotate; the first planetary gear 53 transmits power to the housing of the differential 1 through the first ring gear 51 meshing therewith, so that a "differential torque" effect is formed between the two half shafts of the differential.
[0048] like Figure 6 FIG. 6 is a sixth embodiment of the present invention, which is different from the fifth embodiment in that the planet carrier is arranged in a position, the planet carrier 7 is located outside the second planetary gear 63 and the first planetary gear 53, and the first gear ring 51 and the second gear ring 61 are arranged opposite to each other. The working process is similar to that of the fifth embodiment, and will not be described in detail here.
[0049] like Figure 7 The seventh embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. 5 . Specifically, the first planetary row 5 includes a first sun gear 52 pivotally mounted on the torque transfer mechanism housing, and a first planetary wheel 53 meshing with the first sun gear 51 and the first sun gear 52 is provided between the first gear ring 51 and the first sun gear 52; the second planetary row 6 includes a second sun gear 62 fixedly connected to the driven gear 9, and a second planetary wheel 63 meshing with the second sun gear 62 is provided between the second gear ring 61 and the second sun gear 62, and the second planetary wheel 63 and the first planetary wheel 53 are coaxially connected through a planet carrier 7. The linkage assembly 8 includes a driving gear 41 fixedly mounted on the motor shaft of the vector motor 4, and an idler wheel 89 meshing with the driven gear 9 is provided between the driving gear 41 and the driven gear 9.
[0050] In the seventh embodiment, the planet carrier 7 is located inside the second planet gear 63 and the first planet gear 53 and is connected to both.
[0051] The working process of the seventh embodiment is briefly described below: When the vehicle is running normally, the first planetary gear 5 and the second planetary gear 6 are idling without load, and the vector motor 4 is not running.
[0052] When the vehicle is turning, a speed difference occurs between the left and right half shafts, and the vector motor 4 is started, and the idler gear 89 is driven to rotate through the driving gear 41 on its motor shaft. The idler gear 89 rotates to drive the transmission gear 83 to rotate, and the driven gear rotates to drive the second sun gear 62 to rotate. The second sun gear 62 rotates to drive the second planetary gear 63 meshing therewith to rotate. The second planetary gear 63 rotates to transmit power to the second ring gear 61 and to the first planetary gear 53 through the planet carrier 7. The second ring gear 61 drives the left half shaft 2 to rotate; the first planetary gear 53 transmits power to the housing of the differential 1 through the first ring gear 51 meshing therewith, so that a "differential torque" effect is formed between the two half shafts of the differential.
[0053] like Figure 8 The eighth embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. 8 , which is different from the seventh embodiment in that the planet carrier is arranged in a position, the planet carrier 7 is located outside the second planetary gear 63 and the first planetary gear 53, and the first gear ring 51 and the second gear ring 61 are arranged opposite to each other. The working process is similar to the seventh embodiment, and will not be described in detail here.
[0054] In the fifth to eighth embodiments, a disconnect device or a driven gear 9 is provided between the torque transfer mechanism housing and the first sun gear 52 , or in another form: a disconnect device is provided between the second sun gear 62 .
[0055] The embodiments of the present invention are all provided with the disconnecting device, and the use of the disconnecting device is the preferred embodiment of the present invention. The disconnecting device is a claw clutch, a sleeve clutch or a friction clutch, and of course, it can also be other structures, all of which belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
[0056] The disconnect device allows a portion of the system to be disengaged, which helps to eliminate mechanical losses associated with the rotation of various unused components, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the system.
[0057] The disconnect device is controlled by an actuator, which is, for example, electromechanical, electromagnetic or hydraulic.
[0058] At present, the industry usually equips the auxiliary drive system with the disconnect device. When the permanent magnet motor is used as the auxiliary motor of the auxiliary drive system on the vehicle, in the non-powered working state, in order to prevent the auxiliary drive system from generating reverse rotation torque (that is, the rotor of the permanent magnet motor will follow the rotation of the differential housing and cut the magnetic lines of force), the disconnect device in the auxiliary drive system will disconnect the permanent magnet motor from the differential housing. In order to save energy consumption of the whole vehicle, when the vehicle is running at high speed, the disconnect device can disconnect the permanent magnet motor on the auxiliary drive system from the differential housing, that is: the auxiliary drive system and the differential housing do not transmit power, and the left and right half shafts run normally at high speed.
[0059] When the torque vector distribution system with a parallel shaft structure is used in conjunction with the vehicle auxiliary drive system, when the vehicle is in a high-speed forward state, if the disconnect device on the auxiliary drive system is disconnected, the left half shaft or the right half shaft and the differential housing will have a speed difference of more than 1000RPM. Due to the rigid connection and speed ratio of the vector motor, the first planetary gear, the second planetary gear and the differential, the vector motor will continue to operate at a speed of more than 20000RPM. Long-term high-speed operation will have a significant adverse effect on the thermal balance performance, efficiency and reliability of the torque vector distribution system with a parallel shaft structure. Therefore, the disconnect device of the torque vector distribution system with a parallel shaft structure also needs to be disconnected.
[0060] Of course, in the embodiment of the present invention, the disconnecting device may not be provided. In this way, the vector motor, the first planetary gear, the second planetary gear and the differential are all rigidly connected, which can maximize the feedback speed of the system.
[0061] It should be understood that although this specification is described according to implementation modes, not every implementation mode contains only one independent technical solution. This description of the specification is only for the sake of clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each implementation mode may also be appropriately combined to form other implementation modes that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
[0062] The series of detailed descriptions listed above are only specific descriptions of feasible implementation methods of the present invention. They are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any equivalent implementation methods or changes that do not deviate from the technical spirit of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
