The power required for commercial vehicles is greater than that of passenger vehicles, and greater torque and power are needed, and even a multi-speed transmission device is required; the electric drive is directly installed on the axle to drive the wheels, and some use a high-power single motor or a low-power dual motor. There are various transmission configuration schemes to achieve multi-speed coupling. At present, electric drive commercial vehicles require the transmission device to have the capabilities of uninterrupted power during gear shifting, neutral gear, direct gear, and single-motor operation, etc., but the existing transmission device products cannot fully meet the above usage requirements. Summary of the Invention

The transmission gear set is provided with a shifting mechanism. The planetary gear set outputs to the left and right half shafts, and the left and right half shafts are respectively provided with left half shaft teeth and right half shaft teeth. The ring gear and the planet carrier of the planetary gear set respectively mesh with the left half shaft teeth and the right half shaft teeth.

[0005] In a preferred embodiment of the dual-motor drive transmission device with planetary gear set coupled output provided by the present invention, the transmission gear set includes an input shaft and an output shaft. The input shaft is provided with an input first gear and an input second gear, and the output shaft is provided with an output first gear and an output second gear.

The input shaft is connected to the motor, and the output shaft is connected to the sun gear of the planetary gear set. The output first gear and the output second gear are slidably connected to the output shaft. The shifting mechanism is arranged on the output shaft. When the shifting mechanism is in the first gear, the output shaft is in transmission connection with the output first gear. When the shifting mechanism is in the second gear, the output shaft is in transmission connection with the output second gear.

[0006] In a preferred embodiment of the dual-motor drive transmission device with planetary gear set coupled output provided by the present invention, it includes two sets of drive units arranged in parallel.
