Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automobile manufacturing technology, and in particular to a gear shifting mechanism for vehicle transmissions. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional automotive transmission shift mechanisms mostly rely on a single sensor processor for signal acquisition and shift logic control at the sensing and control levels. This makes them susceptible to interference from the vehicle's electromagnetic environment, leading to sensor signal distortion or misjudgment. Furthermore, single sensor processors have low reliability, posing significant safety hazards. In addition, the control logic of traditional shift mechanisms cannot dynamically adjust based on the driver's operating habits and the vehicle's real-time operating conditions, making it difficult to achieve precise gear shifting in complex driving scenarios and increasing the risk of human error. Regarding the actuators, traditional shift mechanisms often employ mechanical linkages and gear drives. These structures have significant mechanical backlash, which increases over time due to wear, leading to problems such as unclear gear positions and shifting jerks, severely impacting shift accuracy and driving experience. Simultaneously, the slow response speed of mechanical drives reduces power transmission efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0022] Reference Figure 1-4This utility model discloses a vehicle transmission shifting mechanism, comprising: a housing 2, an input shaft 10 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the housing 2, an output shaft 9 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the housing 2, a power motor 19 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the housing 2, a power shaft 20 fixedly connected to the output end of the power motor 19, a power wheel 21 fixedly connected to the outer surface of the power shaft 20, a power belt 11 fixedly connected to the outer surface of the power wheel 21, the power wheel 21 being driven by a first friction disc 12 via the power belt 11, a second friction disc 13 fixedly connected to the outer surface of the input shaft 10, the first friction disc 12 rotatably connected to the outer surface of the input shaft 10, and the first friction disc 12 and the second friction disc 13 being driven by each other. The above mechanism transmits power from the power motor 19 to the first friction disc 12 via the power wheel 21 and the power belt 11, and the first friction disc 12 transmits power to the second friction disc 13, thereby driving the input shaft 10; a plurality of transmission gear trains 17 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the input shaft 10, each transmission gear train 17 consisting of an output wheel 14, a drive wheel 16, and a mating pin. The system comprises 15 components, including an output wheel 14 fixedly connected to the outer surface of the output shaft 9, a drive wheel 16 fixedly connected to the outer surface of the output shaft 9, a mating pin 15 fixedly connected to the outer surface of the drive wheel 16, and a mating connection between the drive wheel 16 and the output wheel 14. The output wheel 14 and drive wheel 16 of several transmission gear trains 17 have different transmission ratios. The above mechanism transmits power to the output shaft 9 at different transmission ratios through the cooperation of the output wheel 14 and drive wheel 16. Several shifting devices 5 are slidably connected to the outer surface of the output shaft 9. The shifting devices 5 consist of... The mechanism consists of a driving block 4, a driven block 8, a shift fork 6, and a shift wheel 7. The driving block 4 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the outer casing 2, the driven block 8 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the outer casing 2, the shift fork 6 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the driven block 8, the shift wheel 7 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the output shaft 9, the shift fork 6 is drive-connected to the shift wheel 7, and the driving block 4 and the driven block 8 are drive-connected. The above mechanism drives the driven block 8 through the driving block 4, which in turn drives the shift fork 6. The shift fork 6 drives the shift wheel 7 to slide and cooperate with the mating pin 15 to select the transmission ratio, thereby realizing the shifting action.

[0023] The power motor 19 drives the power shaft 20 to rotate, which in turn drives the power wheel 21 to rotate. The power wheel 21 pulls the first friction disc 12 to rotate via the power belt 11. The first friction disc 12 and the second friction disc 13 maintain slidable contact, transmitting torque to the fixedly connected second friction disc 13, thereby driving the input shaft 10 to rotate. The friction transmission design buffers the start-stop impact and protects the transmission system. The input shaft 10 drives the rotation of multiple transmission gear trains 17. Each transmission gear train 17 includes: a drive wheel 16, fixed to the input shaft 10 and rotating synchronously with the shaft; a mating pin 15, vertically fixed to the end face of the drive wheel 16; and an output wheel 14. Fixed to the output shaft 9 and engaged with the drive wheel 16, the drive wheel 16 and output wheel 14 of different transmission gear trains 17 have different tooth ratios, providing multiple preset transmission ratios. When shifting gears, the drive block 4 slides on the inner wall of the housing 2 according to the shifting action. The drive block 4 drives the driven block 8 to move synchronously through electromagnetic coupling with the driven block 8. The shift fork 6 fixed to the driven block 8 moves accordingly. The shift fork 6 drives the shift wheel 7 to slide axially along the output shaft 9. The groove of the shift wheel 7 engages with the mating pin 15 of the target transmission gear train 17, locking the power transmission path of this gear train. At this time, the mating pins 15 of other gear trains disengage from the shift wheel 7.

[0024] A fixed shell 3 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the outer shell 2. A lever 1 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixed shell 3.

A sensor processor 18 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer shell 2 for monitoring the shifting action and performing analysis and auxiliary operation.

[0025] When shifting gears, the lever 1 inside the fixed housing 3 is moved to push the drive block 4 to perform the subsequent shifting action; the sensor processor 18 monitors the position of the shift wheel 7, the speed of the output shaft 9, and the load of the power motor 19 in real time; when a shifting request is detected, the speed of the power motor 19 is dynamically adjusted to minimize the speed difference between the input shaft 10 and the output shaft 9, and the electromagnetic damping assists the shift fork 6 to accurately enter the position, reducing shifting impact. After shifting, the gear train meshing status is self-diagnosed, and an alarm is triggered if there is an abnormality.

[0026] Working principle: The power motor 19 drives the power shaft 20 to rotate, which in turn drives the power wheel 21 to rotate. The power wheel 21 pulls the first friction disc 12 to rotate via the power belt 11. The first friction disc 12 and the second friction disc 13 maintain slidable contact, transmitting torque to the fixedly connected second friction disc 13, thereby driving the input shaft 10 to rotate. The friction transmission design buffers the start-stop impact and protects the transmission system. The input shaft 10 drives the array of transmission gear trains 17 to rotate. Each set of transmission gear trains 17 includes: a drive wheel 16, fixed to the input shaft 10 and rotating synchronously with the shaft; a mating pin 15, vertically fixed to the end face of the drive wheel 16; and an output wheel 14, fixed to the output shaft 9 and meshing with the drive wheel 16. The gear ratios of the drive wheel 16 and the output wheel 14 in different transmission gear trains 17 are designed differently to provide multiple preset transmission ratios. When shifting gears... During operation, the lever 1 inside the fixed housing 3 is moved, pushing the active block 4 to slide on the inner wall of the housing 2. The active block 4 drives the driven block 8 to move synchronously through electromagnetic coupling with the driven block 8. The shift fork 6 fixed to the driven block 8 moves accordingly. The shift fork 6 drives the shift wheel 7 to slide axially along the output shaft 9. The groove of the shift wheel 7 engages with the mating pin 15 of the target transmission gear train 17, locking the power transmission path of this gear train. At this time, the mating pins 15 of other gear trains disengage from the shift wheel 7. The sensor processor 18 monitors the position of the shift wheel 7, the speed of the output shaft 9, and the load of the power motor 19 in real time. When a shift request is detected, the speed of the power motor 19 is dynamically adjusted to minimize the speed difference between the input shaft 10 and the output shaft 9. The electromagnetic damping assists the shift fork 6 to accurately enter the position, reducing shift shock. After the shift is completed, the gear train meshing status is self-diagnosed, and an alarm is triggered when there is an abnormality.
