However, the commonly used internal combustion engine drive method often has problems such as a small optimal output power plateau range and poor economy in low-power and intermittent output situations. Utility Model Content

The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0016] Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected" and "linked" should be interpreted broadly.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances. Furthermore, in the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.
[0017] Any process or method described in the flowchart or otherwise herein can be understood as representing a module, segment, or portion of code comprising one or more executable instructions for implementing a particular logical function or process, and the scope of the preferred embodiments of the present invention includes additional implementations in which functions may be performed not in the order shown or discussed, including substantially simultaneously or in reverse order according to the functions involved, as should be understood by those skilled in the art to which embodiments of the present invention pertain.
[0018] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model provides a dual-drive mechanism for a hydraulic pump power unit, installed on a vehicle platform 1, including an internal combustion engine 2, a drive motor 3, and a main pump input end 4, which are sequentially installed on the vehicle platform 1; the drive motor 3 is installed between the internal combustion engine 2 and the main pump input end 4 via a V-shaped support 7; a first coupling 5 is provided between the internal combustion engine 2 and the drive motor 3; a second coupling 6 is provided between the drive motor 3 and the main pump input end 4; the drive motor 3 is a permanent magnet DC motor; the first coupling 5 is a multi-plate electromagnetic clutch.
[0019] The dual-drive mechanism is used in the hydraulic pump drive of construction machinery. The hydraulic pump and power unit of construction machinery are generally installed on the upper platform 1, mainly providing hydraulic power for the entire hydraulic system of the vehicle. The dual-drive mechanism of this application can realize the dual drive cooperation of internal combustion engine drive and electric drive. When used at low power or in uneconomical intermittent use, the electric drive mode can replace the internal combustion engine drive to obtain greater low torque, ensuring the continuous and stable output of the hydraulic pump. In full power or stable continuous situations, the internal combustion engine can be used alone or the internal combustion engine and electric drive can be used together to enable the power unit to obtain a more stable output power and have better energy-saving characteristics, avoiding the high fuel consumption of traditional internal combustion engines.
[0020] By using the first coupling 5 and the second coupling 6 together, different drive modes can be achieved. The output shaft of the drive motor 3 is a double-ended outward-extending type, connected to the internal combustion engine 2 and the main pump input end 4 via the first coupling 5 and the second coupling 6, respectively. When pure electric drive is required, the first coupling 5 is disconnected, so the internal combustion engine 2 is not connected to the power unit, and the second coupling 6 is connected, allowing the drive motor 3 to directly drive the main pump input end 4, providing input power to the main pump. When the internal combustion engine 2 needs to be connected to the power unit, the first coupling 5 is connected, and power to the internal combustion engine 2 can be supplied. In this case, it can be selected that the drive motor 3 does not provide power, meaning the internal combustion engine 2 directly drives the main pump through the output shaft of the drive motor 3; or it can be selected that the drive motor 3 provides power, meaning the internal combustion engine 2 and the drive motor 3 together drive the main pump.
[0021] The use of a permanent magnet DC motor allows for flexible adjustment of the output speed according to the needs of the power unit and when working with the internal combustion engine 2, enabling smoother operation and providing power input to the power unit. The multi-plate electromagnetic clutch offers fast disengagement and engagement, automatic control, and the ability to switch between disengagement and engagement without stopping the engine or its operation.
[0022] The dual-drive mechanism is externally provided with a cover 8; an air intake chamber 9 is provided on the cover 8 on one side of the internal combustion engine 2; an air intake grille 10 is provided on the top of the air intake chamber 9, and an air intake fan 11 is provided on the side of the internal combustion engine 2; the exhaust pipe 12 and the air intake pipe 13 of the internal combustion engine 2 are both located on the top of the cover 8.
[0023] The air intake grille 10 ensures that the air flowing into the air intake chamber 9 is clean, preventing the harsh external working environment from affecting the internal components. The air intake fan 11 blows the air from the air intake chamber 9 toward the internal combustion engine 2 and the drive motor 3, forcing the internal airflow and ensuring that the internal combustion engine 2, the drive motor 3, and the main pump input end 4 inside the hood 8 operate in a well-ventilated working environment.
[0024] A control unit 14 is provided above the drive motor 3. The control unit 14 is used to control the switching of different drive modes and the control of the working status of the drive motor 3, such as its speed.
[0025] The internal combustion engine 2 is mounted on the vehicle platform 1 via engine feet 15. Engine feet 15 have good stability and shock absorption functions. This mounting method ensures the stable operation of the internal combustion engine 2 and plays a role in suppressing vibration and shaking.
