After receiving the command, each of the above controllers controls the response component to execute the command; The first motor 3 is an integrated motor for electric and electric generation, which can charge the energy storage device and can also be used as a driving source.

At this time, the power of the output shaft 39 of the motor 3 passes through the sun gear 9 of the planetary gear mechanism 7; at the same time, the power of the output shaft 40 of the engine 2 passes through the gear 41 and the outer ring gear 10 of the planetary gear mechanism 7; the power of the output shaft 39 of the motor 3 and the output shaft 40 of the engine 2 are coupled together at the planetary carrier 8 of the planetary gear mechanism 7 to achieve hybrid power, and then the rotation speed is transmitted to the input of the gearbox 11.
[0010] There are two extended-range modes in the crawler tractor's operating mode: an extended-range engine drive mode and an extended-range dual-motor drive mode.

[0012] Due to the particularity of the steering of tracked vehicles, when turning in the pure electric mode, fuel mode, hybrid mode, and extended-range engine drive mode, the clutches C5 and C6 are engaged, the power of the left traction motor flows through the clutch C5 and the gear 19 to be connected to the sun gear 18 of the left planetary row 15, and the power of the drive system input shaft 41 flows through the ring gear 16 of the left planetary row 15 and is coupled to the planetary carrier 24 of the left planetary row 15; the power of the right traction motor flows through the clutch C6 and the gear 26 to be connected to the sun gear 25 of the left planetary row 22, and the power of the drive system input shaft 41 flows through the ring gear 23 of the right planetary row 22 and is coupled to the planetary carrier 24 of the right planetary row 22, forming a dual power flow transmission for straight travel and steering.
[0013] The crawler tractor also has a high-power mode: this mode is based on the pure electric mode, fuel mode, hybrid mode, and extended-range engine drive mode. Clutches C5 and C6 are engaged, and the power flow direction is consistent with the dual power flow transmission. At this time, the left and right traction motors act as power-increasing motors.
[0014] The pure electric mode, fuel mode, hybrid mode, and extended-range engine drive mode can all choose to engage or disengage clutch C4 to achieve PTO power output or interrupt PTO power output.
[0015] By selectively engaging clutch C2, clutch C3 and clutch C4, different transmission ratios are provided between the drive motor 3 and the engine 2 and the PTO output shaft assembly; Further, by selectively controlling the engagement of clutch C1, clutch C2 and clutch C3, it is used to provide the transmission modes between the motor 3 and the engine 2 and the PTO output shaft assembly: PTO pure electric transmission mode, PTO engine direct drive transmission mode, PTO combined drive transmission mode; Further, by selectively controlling the clutch C2 to be disconnected, the clutches C3 and C4 to be engaged, and the brake Z2 to be locked with the ring gear 10 of the planetary gear row 7, a PTO pure electric transmission mode is provided between the motor 3 and the PTO output shaft assembly, and the output power of the motor 3 is sequentially transmitted to the PTO output shaft assembly through the drive motor output shaft assembly, the clutch C3, the sun gear 9 of the planetary gear row 7, the planetary carrier 8, the gearbox input shaft, the gear 37, the gear 38, and the clutch C4; Furthermore, by selectively controlling the engagement of clutch C1 and clutch C3, a PTO extended-range transmission mode is provided between the drive motor and the PTO output shaft assembly, wherein the engine drives the generator and the auxiliary motor to generate electricity through clutch C1, and the electric energy generated by the generator and the auxiliary motor is input into the power battery for charging; the power battery supplies power to the drive motor, and the output power of the drive motor is output through the PTO output shaft assembly.
[0016] The control method of a hybrid crawler tractor for hilly and mountainous areas comprises: (1) When it is determined that the mountain crawler tractor is in the starting / accelerating state, the left and right traction motors 20 and 27 are driven, and the engines 1, 2 and the first motor 3 are turned off; (2) When the mountain crawler tractor is in normal operating state, further determine the battery current SOC and required torque T req ; (3) When it is determined that the mountain crawler tractor is in a deceleration / braking / stop state, the first motor 3 generates electricity, and the engines 1, 2 and the left and right traction motors 20, 27 are turned off; A. If the required torque T req Less than the rated torque T of the first motor 3 r3 , the current power is greater than the maximum power threshold SOC max , the tractor enters the pure electric mode, the first motor 3 switches to the electric motor state, and the engines 1 and 2 are turned off; B. If the required torque T reqLess than the rated torque T of engine 2 r2 , the current power is greater than the maximum power threshold SOC max , the tractor enters the fuel mode, and turns off the engine 1 and the first motor 3; C. If the required torque T req Less than the rated torque T of engine 2 r2 , the current power is less than the maximum power threshold SOC max , the tractor enters the extended-range engine driving mode, the first motor 3 switches to the generator state, the engine 1 starts and drives the first motor 3 to charge the energy storage device at the same time, and the engine 2 starts to drive the tractor; D. If the required torque T req At the same time, it is greater than the rated torque T of engine 2 r2 and the rated torque T of the first electric machine 3 (in motor mode) r3 , the current power is greater than the minimum power threshold SOC min , the tractor enters the hybrid mode, the engine 1 is turned off, the first motor 3 is switched to the motor state, the engine 2 is started, and the first motor 3 and the engine 2 drive the tractor simultaneously; E. If the required torque T req Less than the rated torque T of the left and right traction motors 20 and 27 r4 , T r5 (The torques of the two traction motors are equal), the current power is less than the maximum power threshold SOC max , the tractor enters the extended-range dual-motor driving mode, turns off the engine 2, starts the engine 1 and the left and right traction motors 20 and 27 to drive the tractor, and the first motor 3 switches to the generator state, and the engine 1 drives the first motor 3 to charge the energy storage device 5; F. If the required torque T req Greater than the rated torque T of engine 2 r2 , the current power is less than the minimum power threshold SOC min , the tractor temporarily stops working, turns off the engine 2, switches the first motor 3 to the generator state, starts the engine 1 and drives the motor 3 to charge the energy storage device at the same time.
[0017] When it is determined that the tractor is in the starting / accelerating state, the clutches C1, C2, and C3 are disconnected, the clutches C5 and C6 are closed, and the brakes Z5 and Z6 are applied; When the tractor is in the deceleration / braking / stop state, clutches C1 and C2 are disconnected, clutch C3 is closed, brake Z1 is released, and brake Z2 is applied.
[0018] In step A, clutches C1 and C2 are disconnected, clutches C3, C5, and C6 are closed, brakes Z1, Z3, Z4, Z5, and Z6 are released, and brake Z2 is braked; in step B, clutches C1 and C3 are disconnected, clutch C2 is closed, brake Z2 is released, and brake Z1 is braked; in step C, clutch C3 is disconnected, clutches C1 and C2 are closed, brake Z2 is released, and brake Z1 is braked; in step D, clutch C1 is disconnected, clutches C2 and C3 are closed, and brakes Z1 and Z2 are released; in step E, clutches C2 and C3 are disconnected, clutches C1, C5, and C6 are closed, brakes Z3 and Z4 are released, and brakes Z5 and Z6 are braked; in step F, clutches C2, C3, C5, and C6 are all disconnected, and clutch C1 is closed.
[0019] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: (1) The dual-flow transmission of the tracked vehicle is organically combined with the transmission of the parallel-parallel hybrid vehicle. In the pure electric driving mode, the tracked tractor has better straight-line driving performance than the typical tracked vehicle with dual motors independently driven; (2) The dual-engine parallel structure can switch freely between the traditional crawler tractor working mode and the new energy crawler tractor working mode, taking into account the advantages of two different types of tractors. If one engine fails, the other engine can still work normally, ensuring long-term operation during the busy farming season; (3) The left and right traction motors act as steering motors when turning. Depending on the steering power requirements of different operating conditions, they can select speed reduction or differential steering, which can achieve on-the-spot steering and stepless steering. The flexible steering is suitable for small plot operations in hilly and mountainous areas. When the driving force is insufficient, they act as drive motors and work together with other drive sources to meet the complex driving conditions (climbing, overcoming obstacles, etc.) in hilly and mountainous areas and improve the efficiency of heavy-load operating conditions (ploughing, rotary tillage, etc.); (4) According to different working conditions in hilly and mountainous areas, multiple working modes can be switched (including pure electric mode, fuel mode, hybrid mode and extended range mode) to meet the complex working requirements in hilly and mountainous areas; the four main working modes can select or disconnect clutch 4 to achieve PTO power output or interruption. When PTO is working, three modes can be selected according to actual working needs: PTO pure electric transmission mode, PTO engine direct drive transmission mode, and PTO combined drive transmission mode, which has strong applicability; (5) By utilizing the abundant solar energy resources in hilly and mountainous areas, power can be supplied to the electrical equipment of mountain tractors in hilly and mountainous areas, thereby extending their battery life.
