[0050] Exemplary embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, these exemplary embodiments can be implemented in many forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that the present invention will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the concept of the exemplary embodiments to those skilled in the art. The same reference numerals in the drawings denote the same or similar structures, and therefore their detailed description will be omitted.

[0051] The terms “a,” “one,” “the,” and “the” are used to indicate the existence of one or more elements / components / etc.; the terms “including” and “having” are used to indicate an open-ended meaning of inclusion and that other elements / components / etc. may exist in addition to the listed elements / components / etc.

[0052] This utility model embodiment provides a range-extended powertrain device, such as... Figure 2-5As shown, the assembly includes a generator assembly 1, a drive component 2, a reducer 3, and a housing 4. The drive component 2 includes a first drive motor 21 and a second drive motor 22 symmetrically arranged. The housing 4 includes a first mounting cavity 401 for mounting the generator assembly 1, a second mounting cavity 402 for mounting the first drive motor 21, a third mounting cavity 403 for mounting the second drive motor 22, and a fourth mounting cavity 404 for mounting the reducer 3. The reducer 3 is connected to the first drive motor 21 and the second drive motor 22. The third mounting cavity 403 and the second mounting cavity 402 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the housing 4. The first mounting cavity 401 and the second mounting cavity 402 are arranged on the same side. One end of the fourth mounting cavity 404 is located between the second mounting cavity 402 and the third mounting cavity 403, and the other end extends away from the first mounting cavity 401. This application innovatively develops a housing 4 that integrates the generator assembly 1, the first drive motor 21, the second drive motor 22, and the reducer 3 into a single unit. This not only reduces the number of housings but also eliminates the need for a separate cooling system, reducing the powertrain weight by approximately 10% and simultaneously lowering costs. The reduced powertrain weight leads to a lighter front axle, allowing for smaller specifications for suspension, brake, and other components. Therefore, by effectively integrating the generator assembly 1, the first drive motor 21, the second drive motor 22, and the reducer 3, this application significantly reduces system weight and development costs, resulting in a more compact powertrain structure. This reduces the space occupied in the front compartment, effectively decreasing vehicle width, height, and front overhang dimensions, which is beneficial for overall vehicle design and allows for application in smaller vehicle models, such as sedans.

[0053] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2-4 The housing 4 shown includes a first housing portion 41 for mounting the generator assembly 1 and the first drive motor 21. The first housing portion 41 includes a first mounting cavity 401, a second mounting cavity 402, and a linear connecting cavity 400 connecting the first mounting cavity 401 and the second mounting cavity 402. One end of the linear connecting cavity 400 is connected to the first mounting cavity 401, and the other end of the linear connecting cavity 400 is inclined upward and away from the first mounting cavity 401 and connected to the second mounting cavity 402, so that the second mounting cavity 402 and the first mounting cavity 401 are vertically distributed. Figure 2-4 As shown, if the generator assembly 1 is in front and the first drive motor 21 is behind, the linear connection cavity 400 not only realizes the connection between the first mounting cavity 401 and the second mounting cavity 402, enabling the generator assembly 1 and the first drive motor 21 to be integrated into the first housing part 41, but also allows the first drive motor 21 to be located above the rear side of the generator assembly 1, making full use of the space in the Z direction, greatly reducing the size of the powertrain in the X direction, and effectively reducing the size of the entire powertrain device in the X direction.

[0054] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2-4 The first housing portion 41 shown includes a first housing body 411 and a first end cap 412. The first housing body 411 has a first opening on the side away from the second drive motor 22. The first end cap 412 covers the first opening. The first end cap 412 and the first housing body 411 together form a first mounting cavity 401, a linear connection cavity 400, and a second mounting cavity 402. The generator assembly 1 is inserted into and connected to the first mounting cavity 401 through the first opening, and the first drive motor 21 is inserted into and connected to the second mounting cavity 402 through the first opening. Figure 4 As shown, this application designs the first housing part 41 as two parts: the first housing body 411 and the first end cover 412. During installation, the generator assembly 1 and the first drive motor 21 are simply inserted into the corresponding first mounting cavity 401 and second mounting cavity 402 through the first opening on the left side of the first housing body 411 to the set position, and then the first housing body 411 and the first end cover 412 are assembled. The first housing part 41 eliminates the problem of separately molding the generator assembly 1, the first drive motor 21 and the second drive motor 22 in the prior art. Moreover, the structure of the first housing part 41 is simple, the molding cost is low and the installation is convenient, which effectively improves the processing efficiency and reduces the processing cost.

[0055] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2-4 The housing 4 shown also includes a second housing portion 42 for mounting the second drive motor 22. The second housing portion 42 includes a second housing body 421 and a second end cap 422. The second housing body 421 has a second opening on the side away from the first drive motor 21. The second end cap 422 covers the second opening and, together with the second housing body 421, forms a third mounting cavity 403 for mounting the second drive motor 22. The second drive motor 22 is inserted through the second opening and connected to the third mounting cavity 403. The drive end of the first drive motor 21 extends through the second mounting cavity 402 towards the second drive motor 22, and the drive end of the second drive motor 22 extends through the second housing body 421 towards the drive end of the first drive motor 21. The drive shafts of the first drive motor 21 and the second drive motor 22 are collinear. In this application, the second housing portion 42 also adopts a detachable connection between the second housing body 421 and the second end cap 422, facilitating the installation and maintenance of the second drive motor 22. Furthermore, the projections of the second housing portion 42 and the first housing portion 41 on the horizontal plane are L-shaped, and the second mounting cavities 402 of the second housing portion 42 and the first housing portion 41 correspond to each other, making the first drive motor 21 and the second drive motor 22 symmetrical from left to right, and the drive shafts of the first drive motor 21 and the second drive motor 22 are collinear. This design facilitates the installation of the reducer 3 and can ensure the efficient transmission of driving force and the balance of driving force of the left and right wheels.

[0056] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2-4 The housing 4 shown also includes a third housing portion 43 for mounting the reducer 3. The third housing portion 43 includes a first half-shell 431 and a second half-shell 432. The first half-shell 431 is connected to the end of the first housing portion 41 near the first drive motor 21, and the drive end of the first drive motor 21 is inserted into the interior of the first half-shell 431. The second half-shell 432 is connected to the side of the second housing portion 42 near the second drive motor 22, and the drive end of the second drive motor 22 is inserted into the interior of the second half-shell 432. The first half-shell 431 and the second half-shell 432 together form a fourth mounting cavity 404. (As in this application...) Figure 4 As shown, by fixing the first half-shell 431 to the end of the first housing body 411 near the output shaft of the first drive motor 21, and fixing the second half-shell 432 to the end of the second housing body 421 near the output shaft of the second drive motor 22, the preferred structure is integrally formed, reducing the corresponding fixing and positioning structures, improving the positioning accuracy of the two drive motors, solving the problem of misalignment noise in the drive system caused by low positioning accuracy of the drive motors, and improving the overall NVH performance of the vehicle. In addition, the third housing part 43 is formed by merging the first half-shell 431 and the second half-shell 432 into two symmetrical half-shell structures. This structure facilitates the assembly of the drive motor and the reduction gear assembly, is simple in structure, easy to process, effectively reduces the number of parts, and can also improve the installation accuracy.

[0057] Preferably, the reducer 3 includes a first gear section 31 and a second gear section 32 arranged symmetrically on the left and right. The input shaft of the first gear section 31 is connected to the drive end of the first drive motor 21, and the input shaft of the second gear section 32 is connected to the second drive motor 22. The output shaft of the first gear section 31 is connected to a first drive half-shaft 8, and the output shaft of the second gear section 32 is connected to a second drive half-shaft 9. Both the first drive half-shaft 8 and the second drive half-shaft 9 are connected to wheels 10. Figure 2-4 As shown, the first drive motor 21 and the second drive motor 22 are symmetrical about left and right. The reducer 3 includes reduction gear sets corresponding to the two drive motors respectively. In this way, the first drive motor 21 and the second drive motor 22 can control their corresponding wheels independently and the driving force is balanced, which ensures the realization of the function of balanced driving force of left and right wheels and independent control of wheels.

[0058] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2-4The projection of the third housing portion 43 in the Z-direction is elliptical. The major axis of the third housing portion 43 extends obliquely away from the direction where the drive ends of the first drive motor 21 and the second drive motor 22 are located. The first housing 41 of this application can make full use of the vehicle body's Z-direction space. The drive shaft and output shaft of the third housing portion 43 are distributed from top to bottom, which on the one hand adapts to the position of the two drive motors, and on the other hand, further reduces the length of the entire housing 4 in the X-direction, reduces the length of the powertrain in the X-direction, and thus reduces the vehicle body length.

[0059] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2-4 The range-extended powertrain device shown also includes a control component 5, which includes a first controller 51 and a second controller 52. The first controller 51 is installed on the upper part of the housing 4 near the first mounting cavity 401 and the second mounting cavity 402, and is connected to the generator assembly 1 and the first drive motor 21. The second controller 52 is installed on the side of the housing 4 near the second drive motor 22, and is connected to the second drive motor 22. In this application, the first controller 51 is a dual-motor controller used to control the generator assembly 1 and the first drive motor 21. The first controller 51 can be connected to the position of the first housing part 41 above the first drive motor 21 using copper busbars, utilizing the Z-axis space, reducing the Y-axis dimension, and thus reducing the vehicle width. This allows for effective integration of the generator assembly 1 and the first drive motor 21, resulting in a more compact structure, reduced front compartment space occupation, and easier placement of more batteries. The second controller 52 is a single-motor controller used to control the second drive motor 22. It can be set below, above, or on the stator and rotor end faces of the second housing part 42, depending on the space available for different vehicle models. This application does not impose any restrictions on this arrangement.

[0060] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2-3 The range-extended powertrain shown also includes an engine 6, which is located outside the housing 4 and close to the generator assembly 1. The drive end of the engine 6 is connected to the drive end of the generator assembly 1. Figure 2-3 As shown, engine 6 is located on the right side of generator assembly 1. The stator and rotor of generator assembly 1 are directly connected to the torsional damper at the output end of engine 6. Engine 6 drives generator to generate electricity to provide energy to the whole vehicle. It should be noted that in this design, generator assembly 1 needs to match the speed of engine 6.

[0061] In addition, engine 6 includes an intake manifold, and a second controller 52 is located below the intake manifold, such as... Figure 2-4The engine 6 shown is located in the second housing 42, that is, the second controller 52 is installed on the stator and rotor end face of the second drive motor 22 and located below the intake manifold, making the main body more compact, improving the system mode, and the exhaust pipe does not need to be specially designed to avoid the distributed drive motor, reducing the exhaust pipe material and improving the aesthetics of the chassis layout.

[0062] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2-3 The range-extended powertrain device shown in Figure 5 also includes a speed-increasing component 7 disposed within the first mounting cavity 401. The speed-increasing component 7 includes a first speed-increasing assembly 71 and a second speed-increasing assembly 72. The first speed-increasing assembly 71 includes a first rotating shaft 711 connected to the generator assembly 1 and a first gear 712 connected to the first rotating shaft 711. The second speed-increasing assembly 72 includes a second rotating shaft 721 connected to the engine 6 and a second gear 722 connected to the second rotating shaft 721. The second gear 722 is meshed with the first gear 712. The diameter of the second gear 722 is larger than the diameter of the first gear 712. The power output from the engine 6 is transmitted to the generator assembly 1 via the second gear 722 and the first gear 712. Preferably, the stator and rotor of the generator assembly 1 are connected to the torsional damper at the output of the engine 6 via the speed-increasing component 7, increasing the overlap between the high-efficiency zones of the engine and the generator 6, thereby improving the working efficiency of the generator assembly 1.

[0063] This utility model embodiment provides a vehicle that includes a range-extended powertrain device as described above. The vehicle, having the aforementioned rear axle, also possesses the aforementioned functions and effects. By effectively integrating the generator assembly 1, the first drive motor 21, the second drive motor 22, and the reducer 3 through the housing 4, the X and Y dimensions of the powertrain device are significantly reduced, freeing up front compartment space and making the powertrain more compact. Vehicle height, width, and front overhang length are all reduced, facilitating overall vehicle design. Reducing the housing and cooling system lowers costs and powertrain weight by approximately 10%, while simultaneously reducing the weight of the front axle, suspension, brakes, and other components. Furthermore, the exhaust pipe does not need to be specially designed to avoid the distributed drive motors, reducing exhaust pipe material and improving the aesthetics of the chassis layout. This achieves cost reduction and efficiency improvement, enhancing the vehicle's overall performance, particularly its range, to meet users' needs for extended driving range.
