Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of new energy transmissions, and relates to a four-motor two-speed electric drive transmission and engineering machinery, and specifically to a four-motor two-speed electric drive transmission and engineering machinery for mining. Background Art
[0002] At present, high-speed motors are increasingly used in the field of new energy mining vehicles due to their advantages of small size, light weight, low cost and high power density. This has put forward new requirements for the matching gearbox. On the one hand, high-speed motors have a wider speed range for efficient operation, and the motor can operate in the high-efficiency area without the need for the transmission to provide too many gear adjustments. Generally, 2 gears are sufficient to meet the needs of heavy-load operation and high-speed driving of the vehicle. On the other hand, due to the high speed and low torque of high-speed motors under the same power conditions, the electric drive transmission is required to have a large speed ratio to provide sufficient torque to drive the vehicle, ensuring that the mining vehicle has good power performance and climbing ability under heavy-load conditions.
[0003] In addition, in actual mining operations, new energy mining vehicles often need to climb slopes and cross complex terrain while fully loaded. Due to the limitations of structure and design principles, many traditional electric drive transmissions will have power interruption problems during the gear shifting process, which may cause the vehicle to slip when climbing a slope with a heavy load, posing a safety hazard. Summary of the invention

The second shifting device is located on the second intermediate shaft and selectively engages or disengages with the driving gear on the second side of the first intermediate gear pair or the driving gear on the second side of the second intermediate gear pair to form gear position N, gear position 1, and gear position 2.
[0006] In some embodiments, the first input gear pair includes a first driving gear mounted on the first input shaft, a second driving gear mounted on the second input shaft, and a first driven gear mounted on the first gear hub. The first driving gear and the second driving gear respectively mesh with the first driven gear.

The third driving gear meshes with the second driven gear. The first driven gear and the third driving gear are mounted on the first gear hub. The third input gear pair includes a fourth driving gear mounted on the third input shaft, a fifth driving gear mounted on the fourth input shaft, and a third driven gear mounted on the second gear hub. The fourth driving gear and the fifth driving gear respectively mesh with the third driven gear. The fourth input gear pair includes a sixth driving gear mounted on the second gear hub and a fourth driven gear mounted on the second intermediate shaft. The sixth driving gear meshes with the fourth driven gear. The third driven gear and the sixth driving gear are mounted on the second gear hub. The first intermediate gear pair includes a seventh driving gear floatingly arranged on the first intermediate shaft, an eighth driving gear floatingly arranged on the second intermediate shaft, and a fifth driven gear mounted on the output shaft. The seventh driving gear and the eighth driving gear respectively mesh with the fifth driven gear. The second intermediate gear pair includes a ninth driving gear floatingly arranged on the first intermediate shaft, a tenth driving gear floatingly arranged on the second intermediate shaft, and a sixth driven gear mounted on the output shaft. The ninth driving gear and the tenth driving gear respectively mesh with the sixth driven gear.
[0007] In some embodiments, the first shifting device is located between the first intermediate gear pair and the second intermediate gear pair and selectively engages or disengages with the seventh driving gear or the ninth driving gear. The second shifting device is located between the first intermediate gear pair and the second intermediate gear pair and selectively engages or disengages with the eighth driving gear or the tenth driving gear.
[0008] In some embodiments, the first shifting device and the second shifting device can shift independently of each other and both have positions L, N, and R.
[0009] When both the first shifting device and the second shifting device are in the N position, gear position N is achieved.
[0010] When the first shifting device is in the R position and the second shifting device is in the R position, the first shifting device engages with the ninth driving gear of the second intermediate gear pair, and the second shifting device engages with the tenth driving gear of the second intermediate gear pair; the power of the first motor and the second motor is transmitted to the first intermediate shaft through the first input gear pair and the second input gear pair, and then transmitted to the output shaft through the second intermediate gear pair. The power of the third motor and the fourth motor is transmitted to the second intermediate shaft through the third input gear pair and the fourth input gear pair, and then transmitted to the output shaft through the second intermediate gear pair. After the two powers are confluent, they are jointly output from the output shaft to achieve gear position 1.
[0011] When the first shifting device is in the L position and the second shifting device is in the L position, the first shifting device engages with the seventh driving gear of the first intermediate gear pair, and the second shifting device engages with the eighth driving gear of the first intermediate gear pair; the power of the first motor and the second motor is transmitted to the first intermediate shaft through the first input gear pair and the second input gear pair, and then transmitted to the output shaft through the first intermediate gear pair.

After the two powers are confluent, they are jointly output from the output shaft to achieve gear position 2.
[0012] When switching from gear position N to gear position 1, the first shifting device performs the switching operation of the working mode from the N position to the R position, and the second shifting device simultaneously performs the switching operation of the working mode from the N position to the R position. Thus, the gear shift from gear position N to gear position 1 is completed. Start the first motor, the second motor, the third motor and the fourth motor. The power of the first motor and the second motor is transmitted to the output shaft through the second intermediate gear pair after passing through the first intermediate shaft. The power of the third motor and the fourth motor is transmitted to the output shaft through the second intermediate gear pair after passing through the second intermediate shaft. After the two powers are confluent, they are jointly output from the output shaft.
[0013] When switching from gear position 1 to gear position N, the first motor, the second motor, the third motor and the fourth motor are all disengaged from the power. The first shifting device performs the switching operation of the working mode from the R position to the N position, and the second shifting device simultaneously performs the switching operation of the working mode from the R position to the N position. Thus, the gear shift from gear position 1 to gear position N is completed.
[0014] When shifting from gear 1 to gear 2, the first motor and the second motor first disengage from the power. The first shifting device performs the operation of switching the working mode from the R position to the L position. At this time, the power of the third motor and the fourth motor passes through the second intermediate shaft and then is transmitted to the output shaft through the second intermediate gear pair. After the switching is completed, the first motor and the second motor provide power, which passes through the first intermediate shaft and then is transmitted to the output shaft through the first intermediate gear pair. Then, the third motor and the fourth motor first disengage from the power. The second shifting device performs the operation of switching the working mode from the R position to the L position. After the operation is completed, the third motor and the fourth motor resume power again, pass through the second intermediate shaft and then are transmitted to the output shaft through the first intermediate gear pair, and are jointly output after converging with the power transmitted from the first motor and the second motor to the output shaft through the first intermediate shaft and the first intermediate gear pair. Thus, the gear shift from gear 1 to gear 2 is completed.
[0015] When shifting from gear 2 to gear 1, the first motor and the second motor first disengage from the power. The first shifting device performs the operation of switching the working mode from the R position to the L position. At this time, the power of the third motor and the fourth motor passes through the second intermediate shaft and then is transmitted to the output shaft through the second intermediate gear pair. After the switching is completed, the first motor and the second motor provide power, which passes through the first intermediate shaft and then is transmitted to the output shaft through the first intermediate gear pair. Then, the third motor and the fourth motor first disengage from the power. The second shifting device performs the operation of switching the working mode from the R position to the L position. After the operation is completed, the third motor and the fourth motor resume power again, pass through the second intermediate shaft and then are transmitted to the output shaft through the first intermediate gear pair, and are jointly output after converging with the power transmitted from the first motor and the second motor to the output shaft through the first intermediate shaft and the first intermediate gear pair. Thus, the gear shift from gear 1 to gear 2 is completed.
[0016] In a second aspect, a construction machinery is provided, including the four-motor two-speed electric drive gearbox described above.
[0017] In some embodiments, the construction machinery is a new energy mining vehicle.
[0018] Beneficial effects: The four-motor two-speed electric drive gearbox and construction machinery provided by this application have the following advantages: It includes 4 input motors, four motor connecting shafts, two intermediate shafts, one output shaft, two gear hubs, six gear pairs, and 2 shifting devices, forming two speed gears. A transition gear hub with two fixed gears is added between the motor shaft and the intermediate shaft, enabling the power of the motor to be output through two-stage meshing transmission to the intermediate shaft, and then the power is transmitted to the output shaft through the left and right selection of gear pairs by the intermediate shaft shifting device to achieve power output. This transition structure increases the number of meshing times, improves the transmission ratio, and is suitable for the application of high-speed motors. At the same time, the gear hub is floatingly arranged on the output shaft, which also saves the number of shafts, optimizes the spatial structure, and reduces production costs. In addition, the gearbox is driven by four motors in parallel. When performing a shifting operation, the shifting device on one intermediate shaft switches the mode, and the other intermediate shaft shifting device remains unchanged to achieve continuous output of the output power, realizing uninterrupted shifting power.

[0024] In view of the problems that the high-speed motor of the mining vehicle has a wide efficient operating speed range and the demand for matching gearbox gears decreases, the present application provides a gearbox with two gears; in view of the problem that the high-speed motor has a high speed and a small torque, which may lead to insufficient power of the whole vehicle, a four-motor drive scheme is provided. At the same time, a transition gear hub body with two fixed gears is added between the motor input shaft and the intermediate shaft, so that the number of power output engagements in each gear reaches 3 times, which is one more than the traditional two engagements, realizing the expansion of the speed ratio; in view of the requirement of uninterrupted power of the mining vehicle, a power transmission path with two intermediate shafts independently outputting power is selected.

[0029] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the control logic of each gear is as shown in Table 1.
[0030] Table 1. Control logic of each gear
[0031] Note: “√” in the table indicates the working position of the corresponding shift device in the current working gear.
[0032] Combine the following Figure 1 The examples of the present application are described in detail in Table 1. The gearbox in this embodiment can achieve the following gears: When the first shift device A and the second shift device B are both in the middle position (N position), the gear position N is achieved.
[0033] When the first shift device A is in the R position and the second shift device B is in the R position, the first shift device A is combined with the ninth driving gear Z14 of the second intermediate gear pair, and the second shift device B is combined with the tenth driving gear Z15 of the second intermediate gear pair; the power of the first motor EM1 and the second motor EM2 is transmitted to the first intermediate shaft S5 through the first input gear pair and the second input gear pair, and then transmitted to the output shaft through the second intermediate gear pair, the power of the third motor EM3 and the fourth motor EM4 is transmitted to the second intermediate shaft S6 through the third input gear pair and the fourth input gear pair, and then transmitted to the output shaft through the second intermediate gear pair, and the power of the two is converged and outputted from the output shaft S7 together, realizing the gear 1 (this is the escape gear and heavy load low speed operation gear).

After the power of the two is merged, they are output from the output shaft S7 together to achieve gear position 2 (at this time, it is a light load high-speed working gear or a high-speed driving gear).
[0035] When shifting from gear position N to gear position 1, the first shifting device A performs the operation of switching the working mode from N to R, and the second shifting device B simultaneously performs the operation of switching the working mode from N to R. Thus, the gear shift from gear position N to gear position 1 is completed. Then, the first motor EM1, the second motor EM2, the third motor EM3, and the fourth motor EM4 are started. The power of the first motor EM1 and the second motor EM2 passes through the first intermediate shaft and then is transmitted to the output shaft through the second intermediate gear pair. The power of the third motor EM3 and the fourth motor EM4 passes through the second intermediate shaft and then is transmitted to the output shaft through the second intermediate gear pair. After the two powers are confluent, they are jointly output from the output shaft.
[0036] When shifting from gear position 1 to gear position N, the first motor EM1, the second motor EM2, the third motor EM3, and the fourth motor EM4 are all disengaged from the power. The first shifting device A performs the operation of switching the working mode from R to N, and the second shifting device B simultaneously performs the operation of switching the working mode from N to R. Thus, the gear shift from gear position 1 to gear position N is completed.
[0037] When shifting from gear position 1 to gear position 2, the first motor EM1 and the second motor EM2 are first disengaged from the power. The first shifting device A performs the operation of switching the working mode from R to L. At this time, the power of the third motor EM3 and the fourth motor EM4 passes through the second intermediate shaft and then is transmitted to the output shaft through the second intermediate gear pair. After the switching is completed, the first motor EM1 and the second motor EM2 provide power, which passes through the first intermediate shaft and then is transmitted to the output shaft through the first intermediate gear pair. Then, the third motor EM3 and the fourth motor EM4 are first disengaged from the power, and the second shifting device B performs the operation of switching the working mode from R to L. After the operation is completed, the third motor EM3 and the fourth motor EM4 resume power and pass through the second intermediate shaft and then are transmitted to the output shaft through the first intermediate gear pair. The power is confluent with the power transmitted from the first motor EM1 and the second motor EM2 through the first intermediate shaft and then through the first intermediate gear pair to the output shaft and is jointly output. Thus, the gear shift from gear position 1 to gear position 2 is completed.
[0038] When shifting from gear position 2 to gear position 1, the first motor EM1 and the second motor EM2 are first disengaged from the power. The first shifting device A performs the operation of switching the working mode from R to L. At this time, the power of the third motor EM3 and the fourth motor EM4 passes through the second intermediate shaft and then is transmitted to the output shaft through the second intermediate gear pair. After the switching is completed, the first motor EM1 and the second motor EM2 provide power, which passes through the first intermediate shaft and then is transmitted to the output shaft through the first intermediate gear pair. Then, the third motor EM3 and the fourth motor EM4 are first disengaged from the power, and the second shifting device B performs the operation of switching the working mode from R to L. After the operation is completed, the third motor EM3 and the fourth motor EM4 resume power and pass through the second intermediate shaft and then are transmitted to the output shaft through the first intermediate gear pair. The power is confluent with the power transmitted from the first motor EM1 and the second motor EM2 through the first intermediate shaft and then through the first intermediate gear pair to the output shaft and is jointly output. Thus, the gear shift from gear position 1 to gear position 2 is completed.
[0039] During the process of switching between gear position 1 and gear position 2, when the shifting device that disconnects the power and operates on one side of the intermediate shaft switches the mode, the other intermediate shaft shifting device remains stationary to achieve continuous output of the output power, so as to achieve uninterrupted shifting power.
[0040] The four-motor two-speed electric drive gearbox in this application includes 4 input motors, four motor connecting shafts (S1~S4), two intermediate shafts (S5, S6), one output shaft (S7), two gear hubs (H1, H2), six gear pairs with a total of 16 gears (Z1~Z16) and 2 shifting devices (A, B), forming two gear positions. A transition gear hub with two fixed gears is added between the motor shaft and the intermediate shaft, so that the power of the motor is transmitted to the intermediate shaft through two-stage meshing output, and then the power is transmitted to the output shaft by the left and right selection of gear pairs by the intermediate shaft shifting device to achieve power output. This transition structure increases the number of meshes, improves the transmission ratio, adapts to the application of high-speed motors. At the same time, the gear hub is floatingly arranged on the output shaft, which also saves the number of shafts, optimizes the spatial structure and reduces the production cost. In addition, the gearbox is driven by four motors in parallel. When performing a shifting operation, the shifting device on one side of the intermediate shaft switches the mode, and the other intermediate shaft shifting device remains stationary to achieve continuous output of the output power, so as to achieve uninterrupted shifting power.
