The output shaft 203 is provided with a coupling component that can selectively engage with the first transmission pair or the transmission component, and under the engagement of the coupling component, the input shaft 202 can be connected to the output shaft 203 to form a direct power transmission path, or the input shaft 202 can be connected to the output shaft 203 through the intermediate shaft 204 to form an indirect power transmission path.

[0043] Based on the above overall introduction, for details, continue to refer to Figures 1 to 3As shown in FIG. 1 , as a preferred embodiment, in this embodiment, two drive mechanisms 2 are integrated in the axle housing assembly 1, and the two drive mechanisms 2 are arranged symmetrically with respect to the axle housing assembly 1, so that the structural arrangement of the electric drive axle is more balanced. Specifically, as Figure 2 As shown in , the two drive mechanisms 2 are identical in structure, and both drive mechanisms 2 include a drive motor 201 , an input shaft 202 and an output shaft 203 , an intermediate shaft 204 , a first transmission pair, a second transmission pair and a plurality of transmission components.

The input shaft 202 and the output shaft 203 are coaxially arranged, and the input shaft 202 is connected to the intermediate shaft 204 through the first transmission pair. The power output by the drive motor 201 is transmitted to the input shaft 202, and is transmitted to the intermediate shaft 204 through the first transmission pair. The intermediate shaft 204 is arranged in parallel with the input shaft 202 and the output shaft 203, and multiple groups of transmission components are provided between the intermediate shaft 204 and the output shaft 203.

[0050] It is worth noting that, in addition to the three groups of transmission components set up as mentioned above, the multiple transmission components can also be set to four or five or more.

[0051] On the basis of the coaxial arrangement of the input shaft 202 and the output shaft 203, and in combination with the arrangement of the first transmission pair, the second transmission pair and the plurality of transmission components, preferably, the engagement component of this embodiment specifically includes a first synchronizer 215 and a second synchronizer 216 arranged on the output shaft 203. Among them, the first synchronizer 215 can selectively engage the first transmission pair or the first transmission component, and the second synchronizer 216 can selectively engage the second transmission component or the third transmission component. In specific implementation, the first synchronizer 215 can selectively engage the first driving gear 205 or the second driven gear 208. The second synchronizer 216 can selectively engage the third driven gear 210 or the fourth driven gear 212.

[0052] As a further preferred embodiment, in this embodiment, the second transmission pair is located between the second transmission assembly and the third transmission assembly. This arrangement can help improve the overall balance of each drive mechanism 2 and make the structure more compact.
