Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of new energy vehicles, and particularly to an automotive hub motor reducer and speed regulation method of a four-speed single-row two-stage planetary gear train. Background Art
[0002] The hub motor drive systems of new energy electric vehicles are mainly divided into two categories: direct drive type and drive type equipped with a reducer, and the latter is more common in practical applications. As a key transmission component, the hub motor reducer is built into the hub, and its function is to effectively convert the high-speed rotation of the motor into the low-speed and high-torque power output required by the wheels, and endow the vehicle with more precise speed regulation ability.
[0003] Most of the current hub motor reducers on the market adopt a single-row planetary gear train structure or a double-row planetary gear set structure. Although the structural design of the single-row planetary gear train can reduce the occupied space of the reducer, most of its structures have a fixed transmission ratio; while some structural designs of the double-row planetary gear train can achieve outputs with different transmission ratios, but this structure will inevitably lead to an increase in the occupied space of the reducer. And most hub motors cannot directly adjust the speed by means of the structure of the reducer itself, but rely on the speed regulation function of the motor to achieve variable speed output. This variable speed mechanism will, to some extent, cause the output power of the motor to be unstable.
[0004] For example, Chinese Patent No. CN116605042A discloses a double-row planetary gear reducer, which adopts a two-stage planetary gear train. The motor rotor is input to the first-stage sun gear, and then output from the first-stage planetary carrier to the second-stage sun gear, and finally output from the second-stage planetary carrier, realizing two-stage speed reduction and torque increase. However, this reducer has a fixed transmission ratio and cannot achieve speed change through the reducer structure.
[0005] Chinese Patent No. CN115037096A discloses a hub motor assembly integrated with a two-stage planetary reducer. This motor assembly axially installs two planetary gear trains, and realizes the coordinated operation of the two planetary gear trains by installing the second-stage sun gear on the first-stage planetary carrier, outputting a greater torque. Although this motor assembly improves the space utilization rate inside the wheel through an overall topological design, the axial installation method of the two planetary gear trains will still cause the planetary gear trains to occupy a large amount of space, and there is still room for improvement in the structural design of the planetary gear trains inside the reducer. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an automotive hub motor reducer and speed regulation method of a four-speed single-row two-stage planetary gear train, which has a compact structure, improves space utilization rate, and the reducer can achieve more stable output power and speed regulation with more gears through its own structural design.
[0007] One aspect of the present invention provides an automotive hub motor reducer with a four-speed single-row two-stage planetary gear train, including a motor, an input shaft, a housing, a first brake, a second brake, a third brake, a fourth brake, a single-row two-stage planetary gear train, a clutch, a dual clutch, and a hub.
[0008] The single-row two-stage planetary gear train includes a first-stage sun gear, a first-stage planet carrier, three equally spaced first-stage planet gears, an integral ring gear, three equally spaced second-stage planet gears, a second-stage planet carrier, and a second-stage ring gear. The input shaft is used to connect the motor and the first-stage sun gear.
[0009] The clutch includes a driving part, a driven part, and friction plates.
[0010] The dual clutch includes a first clutch, a second clutch, and a flywheel.
[0011] The first-stage sun gear, the first-stage planet carrier, the first-stage planet gears, and the integral ring gear form the first-stage planetary gear train of the single-row two-stage planetary gear train; the integral ring gear, the second-stage planet carrier, the second-stage planet gears, and the second-stage ring gear form the second-stage planetary gear train of the single-row two-stage planetary gear train; the clutch is used to connect the first-stage planet carrier and the second-stage planet carrier.
[0012] The first-stage planet carrier, the integral ring gear, the second-stage planet carrier, and the second-stage ring gear are respectively connected to the first brake, the second brake, the third brake, and the fourth brake. The power transmission between the first-stage planet carrier and the second-stage planet carrier is realized by the clutch to connect and interrupt.
[0013] In the single-row two-stage planetary gear train, the input shaft transmits the motor power to the first-stage sun gear. After the power enters the first-stage sun gear, it is transmitted to the integral ring gear or from the first-stage planet carrier to the second-stage planet carrier through the clutch, and the power can be input into the second-stage planetary gear train of the single-row two-stage planetary gear train. The second-stage planet carrier and the second-stage ring gear of the single-row two-stage planetary gear train can output respectively. Through the combination of two-stage input and output of the second-stage planetary gear train of the single-row two-stage planetary gear train, four-speed speed regulation can be achieved.
[0014] Another aspect of the present invention provides a speed regulation method for an automotive hub motor reducer with a four-speed single-row two-stage planetary gear train, including:
[0015] When the friction plates of the clutch are engaged and the integral ring gear is braked by the second brake, the power in the first-stage planetary gear train can only be transmitted from the first-stage planet carrier to the second-stage planet carrier in the second-stage planetary gear train through the clutch.
[0016] When the friction plates of the clutch are not engaged and the integral ring gear is not braked by the second brake, the power in the first-stage planetary gear train is transmitted to the second-stage planetary gear train through the integral ring gear.
[0017] The secondary gear ring and the secondary planet carrier can be respectively combined with the flywheel of the dual clutch through the first clutch and the second clutch, and finally transmit the power to the wheel hub, realizing two speed outputs. Through the matching of the two speed inputs and outputs of the secondary planetary gear train, a four-speed speed regulation effect is further realized.
[0018] The automotive wheel hub motor reducer and speed regulation method with a four-speed single-row two-stage planetary gear train provided by the present invention have the following beneficial effects:
[0019] 1. In the single-row two-stage planetary gear train of the present invention, the primary gear ring in the primary and secondary planetary gear train structures that should originally exist is combined with the secondary sun gear into an integrated gear ring, and then the structures of the two-stage planetary gear trains are further embedded in each other to form a single-row form, obtaining a single-row two-stage planetary gear train. This planetary gear train has a compact structure and improves space utilization.
[0020] 2. The present invention can achieve four-speed speed regulation. The first, second, and third gears belong to medium and low-speed gears, and the fourth gear is a high-speed gear; in the first, second, and third gears, the power is transmitted from the primary planetary gear train to the secondary planetary gear train, and then output from the secondary gear ring or the secondary planet carrier of the secondary planetary gear train. After being decelerated by two planetary gear trains, the output torque of the first, second, and third gears is greater. The fourth gear directly outputs the power from the primary planet carrier of the primary planetary gear train and is decelerated by one planetary gear train. Therefore, the output torque of the fourth gear is relatively small, which more conforms to the driving conditions of an automobile with low speed and high torque and high speed and low torque.
[0021] 3. The speed regulation method of the present invention can achieve different transmission ratio outputs by controlling the braking of the corresponding components of the single-row two-stage planetary gear train and the engagement of the clutch. Therefore, the motor can achieve speed change while keeping the speed and power unchanged, and can achieve a more stable output power. Description of the Drawings

[0043] An embodiment of the present invention provides a speed regulation method for the automotive hub motor reducer of the above four-speed single-row two-stage planetary gear train, including:
[0044] When the friction plate 902 of the clutch 9 is engaged and the integrated ring gear 801 is braked by the second brake 5, the power in the first-stage planetary gear train can only be transmitted from the first-stage planet carrier 804 to the second-stage planet carrier 805 in the second-stage planetary gear train through the clutch 9;
[0045] When the friction plate 902 of the clutch 9 is not engaged and the integral gear ring 801 is not braked by the second brake 5, the power in the first-stage planetary gear train is transmitted to the second-stage planetary gear train through the integral gear ring 801;

If the first brake 4 or the second brake 5 is braked, the power of the first-stage planetary gear train will be output from the integral gear ring 801 or the first-stage planet carrier 804. When the first-stage planet carrier 804 outputs, the clutch 9 is engaged; when the integral gear ring 801 outputs, the clutch 9 is disengaged, and thus the power of the second-stage planetary gear train can be input from the second-stage planet carrier 805 or the integral gear ring 801.
[0049] When the power of the second-stage planetary gear train is input from the integral gear ring 801, if the third brake 6 or the fourth brake 7 is braked, the power of the second-stage planetary gear train will be output from the second-stage gear ring 806 or the second-stage planet carrier 805. When the power of the second-stage planetary gear train is input from the second-stage planet carrier 805, the power of the second-stage planetary gear train will be output from the second-stage gear ring 806 or directly output from the second-stage planet carrier 805.

Therefore, the output torque of the first, second, and third gears is greater. For the fourth gear, the power is directly output from the first-stage planet carrier of the first-stage planetary gear train, undergoing deceleration through one planetary gear train. Therefore, the output torque of the fourth gear is relatively smaller, which better conforms to the driving conditions of an automobile with low speed and high torque and high speed and low torque.
