Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of automotive powertrain technology and relates to a heavy-duty truck uninterrupted hybrid system and its control method. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, the global commercial vehicle industry has accelerated its transformation towards new energy and intelligent technologies, resulting in a diversified development of powertrain technology routes. Driven by the "dual carbon" goal, battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) have become the mainstream technological directions. Specifically: Battery electric commercial vehicles are suitable for short-to-medium distance fixed scenarios (such as urban logistics and port transportation), but are limited by range (generally ≤300km) and charging infrastructure, making it difficult to meet the demands of long-distance heavy-load operations. Hybrid electric commercial vehicles, with their "oil-electric synergy" advantage, have become the preferred solution for long-distance transportation and complex operating conditions. Currently, the mainstream technical architectures include:

[0003] Existing technical pain points: 1) Conflict between transmission efficiency and smoothness: Traditional multi-speed transmissions have large shift shocks, affecting driving comfort; 2) Low engine energy efficiency: The proportion of high efficiency zone in fuel vehicles is low, and the hybrid system is not optimized enough; 3) High system complexity: The PS architecture relies on planetary gear sets, with many moving parts, which increases the failure rate. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the problems of power interruption, poor fuel economy, and insufficient smoothness in traditional commercial vehicle transmission systems, this invention proposes a simple and highly reliable hybrid power technology solution. It is a heavy-duty truck power interruption-free hybrid system and its control method, which solves the following core problems: frequent and prolonged power interruptions during multi-gear shifts (affecting climbing / overtaking safety); inefficient engine operation (low percentage of high-efficiency range in traditional fuel vehicles); and low reliability of the PS architecture (higher failure rate of planetary gear system compared to parallel shaft).

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: A heavy-duty truck uninterrupted hybrid system includes: an engine, a clutch, a P2 motor, a P2.5 motor, and a gearbox; the gearbox has an axially mounted input shaft, on which a driven pulley for the P2 motor is mounted; the engine is connected to the gearbox input shaft via a clutch; the P2 motor has an axially mounted drive pulley, on which a P2 motor clutch is mounted; the P2 motor is connected to the gearbox input shaft via the engagement of its drive and driven pulleys, forming a parallel structure; the P2 motor clutch interrupts the power supply to the P2 motor. The P2.5 motor is axially mounted with a P2.5 motor drive wheel, and a P2.5 motor clutch is mounted on the P2.5 motor drive wheel. A gearbox input shaft outer shaft is mounted on the gearbox input inner shaft, and a P2.5 motor driven wheel meshes with this outer shaft. The P2.5 motor is connected to the gearbox input shaft outer shaft via the meshing of the P2.5 motor drive wheel and the P2.5 motor driven wheel, transmitting power to the gearbox. The P2.5 motor clutch disconnects or connects the power to the P2.5 motor. The gearbox enables uninterrupted power shifting during vehicle operation.

[0006] Optionally, the gearbox has an output shaft at its axial rear end and an input inner shaft at its axial front end, with the two disconnected. A first intermediate shaft and a second intermediate shaft are respectively arranged parallel to the axial direction of the input inner shaft. The first intermediate shaft has a low-gear wheel, a high-gear wheel, a first-gear wheel, and a second-gear wheel spaced apart from front to back. The second intermediate shaft has a low-gear wheel, a high-gear wheel, a first-gear wheel, and a second-gear wheel spaced apart from front to back. An input shaft drive wheel is located on the outer shaft of the gearbox input shaft, and high / low gear slides are located on the subsequent inner shaft of the gearbox input shaft. The inner shaft drive wheel and outer shaft drive wheel of the input shaft mesh with the low-gear wheels of the first and second intermediate shafts, respectively; the inner shaft drive wheel of the input shaft meshes with the high-gear wheels of the first and second intermediate shafts, respectively; the front end of the output shaft is sequentially equipped with a first-gear output wheel, a first- and second-gear sliding sleeve, and a second-gear output wheel. The first-gear output wheel meshes with the first-gear wheels of the first and second intermediate shafts, respectively, and the second-gear output wheel meshes with the second-gear wheels of the first and second intermediate shafts, respectively; the high- and low-gear sliding sleeves switch the transmission gears of the power input to the inner shaft of the gearbox, and the first- and second-gear sliding sleeves switch the high and low gears of the output shaft; the power is finally output through the output shaft.

At this time, the VCU calculates the requested torque. Based on motor capacity The restriction is allocated proportionally to the P2 and P2.5 motors for execution.

[0010] Optionally, during acceleration after vehicle start-up, the transmission shifts to second gear without interruption, enabling pure electric second-gear operation. During the shift, the P2.5 motor maintains its original power. Output, torque of P2 motor Control the high and low gear sliding sleeves to disengage and return to neutral, based on the current output shaft speed.

The target torque is controlled based on the target torque of the P2 motor calculated by the VCU.

[0011] Optionally, as the vehicle speed increases further, the transmission switches to a higher gear, and the vehicle operates in pure electric third gear. In this case, the controller switches between P2 and P2.5 motors, requesting torque clearing. T and The value is basically 0.
