It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0026] In this application, terms such as "first" and "second" are merely used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship of quantity, priority or sequence between these entities or operations.

The first sun gear 53 is coaxially connected to the intermediate shaft 4; the GM motor 3 is directly connected to the first planetary carrier 51; the second planetary row 6 includes a second sun gear 61, a second planetary gear 63, a second planetary carrier 64 and a second ring gear 62; the second sun gear 61 is coaxially mounted on the intermediate shaft 4, and the second sun gear 61 is connected to the first planetary carrier 51; the second ring gear 62 is coaxially connected to the output shaft 8, and the second ring gear 62 is clutched with the first ring gear 54 through the second clutch device C2; the second planetary carrier 64 is clutched with the intermediate shaft 4 through the third clutch device C3.
[0029] Compared with the existing technology, the hybrid transmission architecture provided by the present invention has the following beneficial effects: through the cooperation of two rows of planetary gears and different clutch devices, it has multiple power modes such as engine 1 direct drive, pure electric, E-CVT (forward gear / reverse gear), and simple power switching; the output shaft 8 end can be used with any forward gear transmission to achieve multi-mode and multi-gear power output; it can provide high-torque power output, which is suitable for off-road platforms with high torque escape requirements; it can realize forward and reverse gear modes in E-CVT mode; this application adopts multiple clutch devices, and different functions can be achieved by adding or reducing a coupling or disconnection device.
[0030] The specific arrangement of the coaxially arranged engine 1, GM motor 3, TM motor 7, first planetary row 5, second planetary row 6, input shaft 2 and output shaft 8 in this application is as follows: the axis of the input shaft 2, the intermediate shaft 4 and the output shaft 8 are the same, the rotor of the engine 1 is directly connected to the input shaft 2, the rotor of the GM motor 3 is directly connected to the first planetary carrier 51, the first planetary row 5 and the second planetary row 6 are coaxially arranged on the intermediate shaft 4, and the rotor of the TM motor 7 is connected to the output shaft 8.
[0031] The term axial in this application refers to the direction along the axis of the input shaft 2, and radial refers to the direction perpendicular to the input shaft 2. In this application, the axes of the input shaft 2, the intermediate shaft 4 and the output shaft 8 coincide.
[0032] Since the present application adopts a coaxial arrangement, two rows of planetary gears and the two rows of planetary gears are connected to each other, the present application has a compact structure, can reduce the loss in the power transmission process, is conducive to high-torque power output, and is particularly suitable for off-road vehicles with high-torque escape requirements.
[0033] In the present application, each clutch device may be a clutch or a synchronizer with an engagement / disengagement function.
[0034] The terms in this application are explained as follows:
[0035] TM motor: TM motor is a type of electric motor commonly used in automobiles, mainly used in the drive system of electric vehicles or hybrid vehicles.
[0036] GM motors are general-purpose motors that can be used in vehicles as power sources or auxiliary systems, such as air conditioning, water pumps, and oil pumps. They can also be used in the drive systems of certain vehicle models. They are widely used in various types of vehicles, providing the necessary power and auxiliary functions.
[0037] TM motors and GM motors are widely used in automobiles, and both motors are important components of modern automotive electrification.
[0038] ECVT is an electronic continuously variable transmission specifically used in hybrid vehicles. It is called electronic continuously variable transmission technology or electronically controlled continuously variable transmission. ECVT is actually part of the hybrid system, not a traditional transmission. It achieves power output through the energy coupling of the engine and electric motor.
[0039] ICE stands for Internal Combustion Engine, which is an internal combustion engine that uses fuel combustion to generate high-temperature and high-pressure gas pressure to push the piston to generate work.
[0040] EV, the full name of which is Electric Vehicle, is a car that uses pure electric drive technology.
[0041] Example 2
[0042] See also Figure 3 Example 2 is a variation of Example 1. The difference between Example 2 and Example 1 lies in the following: a fourth clutch device C4 is positioned between the TM motor 7 and the output shaft 8. The TM motor 7 is clutched from the output shaft 8 via the fourth clutch device C4, while the intermediate shaft 4 is disconnected from the output shaft 8. This embodiment achieves multiple multi-gear operating modes by adjusting the position of the fourth clutch device C4.
[0043] Example 3
[0044] See also Figure 2Example 3 is a variation of Example 2. The differences between Example 3 and Example 2 are that the second clutch device C2 is disposed between the first ring gear 54 and the intermediate shaft 4, and the first ring gear 54 is clutched from the intermediate shaft 4 via the second clutch device C2. The second ring gear 62 is connected to the first sun gear 53, which is coaxially mounted on the intermediate shaft 4. This embodiment achieves multiple multi-gear operating modes by adjusting the position of the second clutch device C2.
[0045] In some embodiments, a first hollow shaft 9 is hollowly mounted on the intermediate shaft 4. The first hollow shaft 9 has its axial ends connected to the first planet carrier 51 and the second sun gear 61, respectively. The first sun gear 53 is coaxially mounted on the first hollow shaft 9. This compact structure reduces power transmission losses and facilitates high-torque power output.
[0046] In some embodiments, the first planet carrier 51 and the second sun gear 61 are integrally formed. This compact structure can reduce the overall size, reduce power transmission losses, and reduce the space occupied by the entire structure in the vehicle layout. It can also improve the overall strength of the integral structure of the first planet carrier 51 and the second sun gear 61.
[0047] In some embodiments, a second hollow shaft 10 is hollowly sleeved outside the first hollow shaft 9, and the axial ends of the second hollow shaft 10 are respectively connected to the first sun gear 53 and the second ring gear 62. Similarly, this structure is compact, can reduce the loss in the power transmission process, and is conducive to high torque power output.
[0048] Example 4
[0049] See also Figure 4 Example 4 is a variation of the structure of Example 2. The difference between Example 4 and Example 2 is that the first planetary row 5 is coaxially arranged on the outside of the second planetary row 6, and the first sun gear 53 is connected to the outside of the second ring gear 62.
[0050] The first sun gear 53 can be integrated with the second ring gear 62. Similarly, this structure is compact, can reduce the external volume, can reduce the loss during the power transmission process, and can also reduce the space occupied by the entire structure in the vehicle layout.
[0051] In some embodiments, the second sun gear 61, the second planetary gears 63, the first sun gear 53, and the first planetary gears 52 are arranged linearly from the inside out. Similarly, this compact structure can reduce the overall volume, reduce power transmission losses, and reduce the space occupied by the entire structure in the vehicle layout.
[0052] Example 5
[0053] The difference between Example 5 and Example 1 is that the first planetary gear set 5 and the second planetary gear set 6 are both double planetary gear planetary gear sets, and they also realize the original architecture of the engine 1 direct drive, pure electric two-speed (forward gear / reverse gear), ECVT (forward gear / reverse gear), extended range and other working modes, and each working mode is the same as that of Example 1.
[0054] It is noted that no specific diagram is given in Example 5. Figure 1 That's it.

[0065] Hybrid mode 2: In this mode, only engine 1 and GM motor 3 are working, C1, C3, and C2 are connected, and C4 is disconnected. At this time, the two planetary gears are in a fixed state. At this time, the power of engine 1 is input to output shaft 8 through C1 and the planetary gear, and the power of GM motor 3 is output to output shaft 8 through the planetary gear. Figures 2 to 4 .

At this time, the first planetary gear 5 and the second planetary gear 6 share a ring gear. At this time, the power of the engine 1 is transmitted to the output shaft 8 through the first sun gear 53 and then through the first planetary carrier 51. The GM motor 3 can adjust the speed of the first planetary carrier 51. The engine 1 and GM motor 3 transmit power to the output shaft 8 at the same time. Figure 3 .
