Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments.
[0019] Embodiment 1, please refer to Figure 1 is the schematic diagram of the two-gear double-motor electric drive device without power interruption provided by the present application in the present embodiment.
[0020] The two-gear double-motor electric drive device without power interruption comprises a first power unit 1, a second power unit 2, a first shift mechanism 3, a second shift mechanism 4, an input unit, a coupling unit, a reduction unit 7 and an output unit.

The input unit comprises a double-layer shaft, wherein the right end of the inner layer shaft 51 is provided with an inner layer spline 53, and the right end of the outer layer shaft 52 is provided with an outer layer spline 54. The input unit is coaxially aligned with the first motor, and the first spline 11, the inner layer spline 53 and the outer layer spline 54 are arranged in sequence from right to left.
[0022] The sliding sleeve of the first shift mechanism 3 is driven by another control mechanism to make the first spline 11 engage with the inner layer spline 53 or the outer layer spline 54. When the first spline 11 engages with the inner layer spline 53, i.e. when power is transmitted through the inner layer shaft 51, it is the normal output route; when it engages with the outer layer spline 54, it is the shift route that needs to be adopted during shifting.
[0023] The coupling unit comprises a double-layer tooth, wherein the inner layer tooth 61 is on the left and engages with the inner layer shaft 51 through a gear, and the outer layer tooth 62 is on the right and engages with the outer layer shaft 52 through a gear.

[0025] The reduction unit 7 comprises a planetary gear set. The inner layer teeth 61 are connected to the sun gear of the reduction unit 7, and the outer layer teeth 62 are connected to the planet carrier of the reduction unit 7, which is further connected to the output unit. In this structure, when power is transmitted through the inner layer teeth 61, the power is transmitted after being reduced by the reduction unit 7, which is referred to as the reduction route; when power is transmitted through the outer layer teeth 62, the power directly drives the rotation of the entire reduction unit 7, which is referred to as the direct drive route.

The planet carrier of the reduction unit 7 drives the housing of the differential 81, the differential 81 distributes power to the left half shaft 82 and the right half shaft 83, and finally transmits the power to the wheels on both sides.
[0030] When gear shifting is needed, the gear shifting method comprises the following steps: Step 1: The first motor is stopped, at this time the first gear shifting mechanism 3 has no power, and the gear shifting operation can be performed, and the first gear spline 11 is switched to engage with the outer layer spline 54.
[0031] Step 2: The first motor is started, at this time its power is sequentially transmitted through the outer layer shaft 52, the outer layer teeth 62, the planet carrier of the reduction unit 7, and directly drives the housing of the differential 81.
[0032] Step 3: The second motor is stopped, at this time only the power of the first motor directly drives the planetary carrier of the reduction unit 7, the reduction unit 7 itself does not transmit power, the second shift mechanism 4 can perform a shift operation and switch to another gear, assuming that it is switched to second gear.
[0033] Step 4: The second motor is started, at this time the power output of the second motor is consistent with the initial state, driving the sun gear of the reduction unit 7 from the inner teeth 61.
[0034] Step 5: At the same time, the first motor is stopped, similar to step 1, the first shift mechanism 3 switches back to the first spline 11 engaging with the inner spline 53.
[0035] Step 6: The first motor is started, returning to the initial state.

[0081] In the above structure, the initial driving route is as follows: The first motor drives the inner shaft 51 and the inner teeth 61 through the first gear shifting mechanism 3, and the second motor is also connected to the inner teeth 61. From the inner teeth 61, the sun gear of the deceleration unit 7 is driven through the first gear of the second gear shifting mechanism 4, and the differential 81 housing is driven by the planet carrier of the deceleration unit 7 after being decelerated by the deceleration unit 7, or the second gear directly drives the differential 81 housing. The differential 81 distributes power to the left half shaft 82 and the right half shaft 83, and finally to the wheels on both sides.
[0082] When gear shifting is needed, the gear shifting method includes the following steps: Step 1: The first motor is stopped, at this time the first gear shifting mechanism 3 has no power, the gear shifting operation can be performed, and the first gear 11 is switched to engage with the outer gear 54.
[0083] Step 2: The first motor is started, at this time its power is transmitted in sequence through the outer shaft 52 and the outer teeth 62 to directly drive the differential 81 housing.
[0084] Step 3: The second motor is stopped, at this time only the power of the first motor directly drives the differential 81, the deceleration unit 7 does not transmit power itself, the second gear shifting mechanism 4 can perform gear shifting operation, and is switched to another gear, assuming that it is switched to the second gear.
[0085] Step 4: The second motor starts, at this time the power output of the second motor is consistent with the initial state, driving the differential 81 from the outer teeth 62.
[0086] Step 5: At the same time, the first motor stops, and the first shift mechanism 3 switches back to the first spline 11 engaging with the inner spline 53, similar to step 1.
[0087] Step 6: The first motor starts, returning to the initial state.
[0088] The above is only an embodiment of the present application, and does not limit the patent scope of the present application, and any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation using the content of the present application specification, or direct or indirect application in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
