Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of transmission control, and in particular to a power shift transmission and a vehicle. Background Art
[0002] Powershift transmission technology, a key technology in modern transmissions, has matured in recent years and has been widely used in numerous engineering vehicles and machinery. However, existing powershift transmission technology still faces a series of challenges that need to be addressed, which, to a certain extent, limit its further performance improvement and wider application.
[0003] Specifically, the current power shift transmission has the following main defects: Speed ratio range and torque limit: The speed ratio range is not wide enough and the output torque is limited, making it difficult to meet the vehicle's diverse demands for power and speed under different working conditions.
[0004] Poor shifting performance: The large speed ratio difference between adjacent gears results in uneven power transmission and poor shifting comfort during the shift process. Furthermore, the power interruption required during the shifting process further impacts the vehicle's driving experience and operating efficiency.
[0005] Structural layout issues: The entire box layout is not compact enough and occupies a large space, which brings difficulties to the spatial layout of the entire vehicle and is not conducive to the miniaturization and lightweight design of the vehicle.
[0006] In response to the above problems, technicians in related fields have conducted extensive research and exploration and achieved some results. For example: Chinese invention patent application CN1813144A discloses a transmission with multiple parallel single-shaft, single-clutch configurations and a multi-axle-down arrangement. However, this transmission offers only four forward gears and two reverse gears, with significant speed ratio differences between gears and poor shifting comfort, making it difficult to meet the vehicle's diverse operating requirements.
[0007] Chinese invention patent application CN102003502A discloses a powershift transmission suitable for construction machinery. It enables switching between single and dual drive, boasting a short transmission path and a minimal number of components. However, its vertical arrangement of multiple parallel shafts significantly increases the axle drop, impacting the overall vehicle layout. Furthermore, its seven clutches provide only eight gears, resulting in low clutch utilization and significant power loss.
[0008] Chinese invention patent application CN101725676A discloses a nine-speed powershift transmission using six clutches to create these nine gears, resulting in relatively high clutch utilization. However, the large number of parallel shafts and gear sets complicates the structure, leading to a relatively large transmission case, which hinders vehicle layout and increases installation and maintenance costs.
[0009] In summary, although the existing technology has made certain progress in the field of power shift transmissions, there are still many deficiencies, which require further research and improvement to develop power shift transmissions with better performance, more compact structure and wider applicability.

[0020] In a second aspect, the present invention further provides a vehicle comprising a power shift transmission as described above.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial technical effects: The present invention provides a powershift transmission that, through the coordinated operation of a main and auxiliary transmission modules, can combine a wide range of gear ratios. This multi-module, multi-shaft design enables the transmission to operate with different gear combinations, achieving a wider speed ratio range and meeting the vehicle speed and torque requirements under different operating conditions. The input shaft is directly connected to the auxiliary transmission module's output shaft unit, which includes a planetary gearshift. The planetary gearshift boasts a compact structure, a large transmission ratio, and a strong load-bearing capacity. It effectively amplifies and transmits the power transmitted by the input shaft, thereby increasing output torque and improving the vehicle's power performance, enabling it to adapt to heavier load conditions. The twelve gear positions and the optimal meshing relationship between the first clutch master-slave gear integrated unit, the second clutch master-slave gear integrated unit, the driving gear unit, and the clutch slave gear integrated unit ensure smoother transitions between gear positions. Precise gear tooth count design and transmission ratio calculation minimize the speed ratio difference between adjacent gear positions, ensuring smoother power output during gear shifts, reducing power interruptions and jerks caused by gear changes, and improving shift comfort. The shift mechanism can receive different gear execution commands among the 12 gears through manual or automatic operation to achieve precise gear switching.
[0022] Furthermore, the first, second, third, and fourth driving gears are sequentially mounted on the input shaft and mesh with the first clutch master-slave gear integrated unit, the second clutch master-slave gear integrated unit, and the shift mechanism, respectively. This allows each driving gear to interact with a different slave gear unit, creating a variety of gear combinations. This provides a rich basis for transmission ratios to achieve 12 gear positions, enabling more precise control over the vehicle's power requirements under varying driving conditions. The shift mechanism meshes with multiple driving gears, executing commands based on the various gear positions and flexibly selecting different gear combinations for shifting.
[0023] Furthermore, the first driven gear meshes with the first driving gear, the second driven gear meshes with the fourth driving gear, and the fifth driving gear meshes with the clutch-slave gear integrated unit. This multi-gear meshing combination provides the transmission with a rich variety of gear options. By engaging and disengaging different clutches, a variety of different gear ratios can be combined to meet the requirements of 12 gears. This further broadens the transmission's speed ratio range, allowing the vehicle to find the appropriate gear ratio under various operating conditions, improving power performance and fuel economy. The first driven gear is equipped with a third clutch, and the second driven gear is equipped with a first clutch. The first clutch hub is compatible with the third clutch and the first clutch, respectively. By controlling the engagement and disengagement of these two clutches, the power transmission path between the first and second driven gears can be flexibly controlled.
[0024] Furthermore, the third driven gear meshes with the second driving gear, and the sixth driving gear meshes with the clutch-slave gear integrated unit, providing the transmission with additional transmission paths and gear combinations. Combined with the transmission combination of the first clutch-slave gear integrated unit, this more comprehensively covers all 12 gears. By combining different gear combinations, the transmission ratios of each gear can be optimized, ensuring optimal power output and fuel economy across various vehicle speed and load conditions. The third driven gear is equipped with a fifth clutch, and the second clutch hub is adapted to the fifth clutch and the clutch unit within the shift mechanism. Controlling the engagement and disengagement of the fifth clutch allows for flexible control of power transfer to the third driven gear. Furthermore, the shift mechanism can receive manual or automated gear execution commands, allowing the transmission to automatically select the appropriate gear based on the driver's intent or vehicle driving conditions, achieving fast and smooth shifting.
[0025] Furthermore, the forward gear meshes with the third driving gear, while the reverse gear meshes with the idler gear, which in turn meshes with the fourth driving gear. By connecting the sleeve to the forward gear or reverse gear, the vehicle's forward and reverse gears can be easily switched. When moving forward, the sleeve connects to the forward gear, and power is transmitted from the third driving gear to the forward gear. When reversing, the sleeve connects to the reverse gear, and power is transmitted to the reverse gear via the fourth driving gear and the idler gear. The shift mechanism can execute commands based on different manually operated gears, precisely controlling the position of the sleeve to connect it to the corresponding gear. This provides a flexible operating method for achieving 12 gears. The driver can manually select the appropriate gear based on actual road conditions and driving needs, improving the vehicle's adaptability and controllability under different operating conditions.
[0026] Furthermore, in automated operation mode, the transmission executes received gear commands, controlling the fifth clutch hub to engage either the eighth or ninth clutch, enabling rapid shifts between forward and reverse gears. Compared to manual operation, automated shifting is faster and more precise, completing gear changes in a shorter time, reducing power interruption time and improving vehicle acceleration and ride smoothness. The automated shifting system automatically selects the most appropriate gear based on various factors, including vehicle speed, load, engine speed, and driver's driving habits. The forward gear meshes with the third drive gear, the reverse gear meshes with the idler gear, and the idler gear meshes with the fourth drive gear. This gear meshing relationship provides a stable path for power transmission. During automated shifting, precise clutch control ensures smooth and efficient power transfer between gears, minimizing energy loss and improving transmission efficiency.
[0027] Furthermore, one end of the input shaft is directly connected to the output shaft via a connecting shaft, eliminating intermediate links in the power transmission process, reducing energy loss, and improving power transmission efficiency. This connection method also ensures stable power transmission, reduces vibration and noise caused by excessive transmission components, and ensures smoother vehicle power output. The clutch and gear integrated unit is located on the connecting shaft and the output shaft. By controlling the engagement and disengagement of different clutches, the power transmission path and distribution ratio between the connecting shaft and the output shaft can be flexibly adjusted.
[0028] Furthermore, the fourth driven gear is mounted on the connecting shaft, with its ends meshing with the driving gears of the first and second clutch master-slave gear integrated units. This allows for efficient power transmission from the input shaft through the connecting shaft to the fourth driven gear, which then transmits power to subsequent components. This reduces power loss during transmission and improves power transmission efficiency. The fourth driven gear is connected to the third and fourth clutch hubs, which are in turn associated with the fourth and sixth clutches, respectively. By controlling the engagement and disengagement of the various clutches, the power distribution path and ratio on the output shaft can be flexibly adjusted.
[0029] Furthermore, the planetary gear set, consisting of a sun gear, planet carrier, planetary gears, and ring gear, enables multiple power transmission modes. The planetary carrier is fixedly connected to the output shaft, allowing the planetary gear set's power to be directly transmitted to the output shaft. The ring gear meshes with the planetary gears and is compatible with the sixth and seventh clutches, respectively. By controlling the engagement and disengagement of the sixth and seventh clutches, the ring gear's operating state can be changed, thereby achieving different power transmission paths and providing a variety of gear characteristics for the transmission. Combined with components such as the clutch-slave gear integrated unit mentioned above, and by rationally controlling the operation of each clutch, the planetary gear set can work in coordination with the rest of the transmission to achieve overdrive and underdrive shifting. When high torque output is required, such as when starting or climbing a hill, the planetary gear set can be operated in underdrive mode by controlling the clutches to provide sufficient driving force. At high speeds, it switches to overdrive mode, reducing engine speed and improving fuel economy. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0060] Table 2 - Shift logic table for powershift transmission transmission route
[0061] It should be noted that “√” in Table 1 indicates that the corresponding clutch is in working state.
[0062] The shifting principle and power transmission path are explained below using five specific examples: forward 1st gear, forward 7th gear, reverse 1st gear, reverse 2nd gear, and forward 1st gear without power interruption to reverse 1st gear. Forward gear 1: The power source drives the input shaft 1 to rotate, and the fourth driving gear Z4 on the input shaft 1 engages with the driven gear Z6. Through the cooperation of the first clutch hub G1 and the first clutch C1, the first parallel shaft C and the fifth driving gear Z7 are driven to rotate, and then the fourth driven gear Z11, the connecting shaft L and the third clutch hub G3, and the center gear S1 are driven to work. The seventh clutch B1 brakes the ring gear A1, and the center gear S1 drives the planet carrier PC1 to rotate. Finally, the power is output by the output shaft 2 through the planet carrier PC1.
[0063] Forward gear 7: The power source drives the input shaft 1 to rotate, and the third driving gear Z3 on the input shaft 1 engages with the forward gear Q. Through the cooperation of the fifth clutch hub G5, the eighth clutch CQ, the second clutch hub G2 and the second clutch C2, the second parallel shaft D and the sixth driving gear Z9 are driven to rotate, and then the driven gear Z11, the connecting shaft L, the third clutch hub G3 and the center gear S1 are driven to work. When the sixth clutch C6 is engaged, the fourth clutch hub G4 and the ring gear A1 are also driven to work. The center gear S1 and the ring gear A1 jointly drive the planet carrier PC1 to rotate, and finally the power is output by the output shaft 2 through the planet carrier PC1.
[0064] Reverse gear 1: The power source drives the input shaft 1 to rotate, the fourth driving gear Z4 on the input shaft 1 engages with the intermediate gear Z10, and the intermediate gear Z10 engages with the reverse gear T. Through the cooperation of the fifth clutch hub G5 and the ninth clutch CT as well as the second clutch hub G2 and the second clutch C2, the second parallel shaft D and the sixth driving gear Z9 are driven to rotate, and then the driven gear Z11, the connecting shaft L and the third clutch hub G3, and the center gear S1 are driven to work. The seventh clutch B1 brakes the ring gear A1, and the center gear S1 drives the planet carrier PC1 to rotate. Finally, the power is output by the output shaft 2 through the planet carrier PC1.
[0065] Reverse 2nd gear: The power source drives the input shaft 1 to rotate, and the fourth driving gear Z4 on the input shaft 1 engages with the intermediate gear Z10, and the intermediate gear Z10 engages with the reverse gear T. Through the cooperation of the fifth clutch hub G5, the ninth clutch CT, the second clutch hub G2, and the second clutch C2, the second parallel shaft D and the driving gear Z9 are driven to rotate, and then the fourth driven gear Z11, the connecting shaft L, the third clutch hub G3, and the center gear S1 are driven to work. When the sixth clutch C6 is engaged, the fourth clutch hub G4 and the ring gear A1 are also driven to work. The center gear S1 and the ring gear A1 jointly drive the planet carrier PC1 to rotate, and finally the power is output by the output shaft 2 through the planet carrier PC1.
[0066] Switching from forward 1st gear to reverse 1st gear without power interruption: the power source drives the input shaft 1 to continue rotating, and commands and controls the first clutch C1 to change from engaged to non-engaged working state, and the seventh clutch B1 remains engaged. At the same time, the second clutch C2 and the ninth clutch CT are commanded and controlled to transition from non-engaged to engaged working state. During the working state conversion process of the two sets of clutches, their friction plates perform sliding work and quickly stop the vehicle speed and then immediately press and engage, thereby realizing the switching from forward 1st gear to reverse 1st gear, and achieving uninterrupted power during the switching process, simplifying the driver's operation and improving energy utilization.
[0067] according to Figure 6 As shown, the two horizontal lines in the figure represent: "0" horizontal line represents zero speed, and "1" represents the speed is the input speed and its speed is the same as the first rotating shaft 1. The characters on the horizontal line refer to Figure 5 The names of the components shown in the connection principle diagram are determined by the number of teeth between the components and the matching relationship between them. The straight lines between the components represent the corresponding rotating axes that are fixedly connected to them. This method is a speed comparison method commonly used by technicians in this field.
[0068] The present embodiment provides a power shift transmission, whose transmission route specifically includes 10 forward gears and 2 reverse gears. Through the different combinations of 9 groups of clutches and their combination with the planetary gearbox, a short power transmission route is formed, the entire box structure is compactly arranged, and the vehicle reversing can be achieved without power interruption and with high power utilization.
[0069] Example 3 This embodiment also provides a vehicle, comprising a power shift transmission as described above.
[0070] In summary, the powershift transmission provided by the present invention is capable of combining a wide range of gear ratio combinations by arranging the coordinated operation of the main and auxiliary transmission modules. This multi-module, multi-shaft design enables the transmission to operate with different gear combinations, thereby achieving a wider speed ratio range and meeting the vehicle speed and torque requirements under different operating conditions. The input shaft is directly connected to the auxiliary transmission module's output shaft unit, and the auxiliary transmission module includes a planetary gear set and other structures. The planetary gear set has the characteristics of a compact structure, a large transmission ratio, and a strong load-bearing capacity. It can effectively amplify and transmit the power transmitted by the input shaft, thereby increasing the output torque, improving the vehicle's power performance, and enabling it to adapt to heavier load conditions. The arrangement of 12 gears and the rational meshing relationship between the first clutch master-slave gear integrated unit, the second clutch master-slave gear integrated unit, the driving gear unit group, and the clutch slave gear integrated unit ensure smoother transitions between gears. Precise gear tooth count design and transmission ratio calculation minimize the speed ratio difference between adjacent gears, ensuring smoother power delivery during shifts, reducing power interruptions and jerks caused by gear changes, and improving shift comfort. The shift mechanism can receive manual or automated commands for each of the 12 gears, enabling precise shifting.
