Abstract
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0001] Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure / invention relate to a power transmission device for a hybrid vehicle, and more particularly, to a power transmission device for a hybrid vehicle capable of removing (e.g., making unnecessary, e.g., dispensing with) a clutch that connects an engine power (e.g., connecting to an engine for power transmission (selectively)), securing (e.g., creating) space (e.g., room) for a first electric motor and a second electric motor, and reducing an overall length. DISCUSSION OF THE BACKGROUND
[0002] Generally, a power transmission device for a hybrid vehicle has a structure in which an electric motor, an internal combustion engine, and an integrated starter-generator (ISG) are arranged in a series.
[0003] In a hybrid vehicle that uses an internal combustion engine and an electric motor, the electric motor is used to facilitate the initial start of the vehicle. Once the vehicle reaches a certain speed, the generator or ISG starts the internal combustion engine, thus utilizing both the output of the internal combustion engine and the output of the electric motor.
[0004] The electric motor used in the power transmission device for a hybrid vehicle can be operated to enable electric driving of the vehicle when the internal combustion engine is initially not running.
[0005] Recently, the number of electric motors is not limited to one. Instead, two or more electric motors are arranged in a plurality. For example, when two electric motors are arranged in the power transmission device for a hybrid vehicle, a first electric motor can be operated to start the internal combustion engine, and a second electric motor can be operated to drive the vehicle electrically.
[0006] However, in the related technology, the electric motor must be large to provide the required torque for the vehicle, making the design difficult. When a friction clutch is provided on a power shaft connecting the engine and the transmission, there are problems of increased product length and dead load due to the large size of the friction clutch. Furthermore, when a dog clutch is provided on the power shaft connecting the engine and the transmission, the electric motor must be arranged concentrically with the engine, which imposes a limitation on overall length. Therefore, it is necessary to address this problem.
[0007] The background technology of the present disclosure / invention is disclosed in Korean Patent Application Publication No. 2009-0020791 (published on February 27, 2009 under the title “POWER TRANSMISSION DEVICE FOR HEV”). EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

[0017] Hereinafter, embodiments of a power transmission device for a hybrid vehicle according to the present disclosure / invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. For clarity and simplicity of description, line thicknesses, sizes of constituent elements, and the like may be shown in the drawings in an inexact ratio. Furthermore, the terms used below are defined in consideration of their functions in the present disclosure / invention and may vary depending on the intention of a user or operator or common practice. Therefore, these terms should be defined in context in light of the present description.
[0018] Fig. 1 is a schematic view showing a power transmission device for a hybrid vehicle according to an embodiment of the present disclosure / invention. Referring to Fig. 1, a power transmission device 1 for a hybrid vehicle according to an embodiment of the present disclosure / invention includes: an internal combustion engine 10, an input device 20, a first motor generator (e.g., a first electric motor generator) 30, a first transmission 40, an output device 50, a second motor generator (e.g., a second electric motor generator) 60, a second transmission 70, and a differential 80.
[0019] The internal combustion engine 10 is a device that generates power by operating (e.g., driving) an internal combustion engine. The input device 20 may be connected to the internal combustion engine 10 and configured to provide power for one speed (e.g., power at one speed, e.g., power for a speed range—also referred to herein as "single-speed power"). For example, the input device 20 may have a wave shape (e.g., the shape of a wave) and may be disposed between the first transmission 40 and the second transmission 70.
[0020] The first motor generator 30 is operated (e.g., driven) when power is applied (e.g., thereto), and the first transmission 40 may be connected to the first motor generator 30. The first transmission 40 may be arranged in parallel with the input device 20 and may transmit power (e.g., mechanical power) to the input device 20. For example, the first motor generator 30 may rotate the first transmission 40 to start (e.g., crank) the internal combustion engine 10 and provide motive power. When rotational power of the input device 20 is provided (e.g., transmitted) to the first motor generator 30 through the first transmission 40, the first motor generator 30 may generate power (e.g., electrical power).
[0021] The output device 50 may be engaged (e.g., engaged) with the input device 20. For example, the output device 50 may be arranged between the input device 20 and the second gear 70. The input device 20, the output device 50, and the second gear 70 may be arranged parallel (e.g., parallel to one another, e.g., parallel to one another with respect to a respective extension direction of their shafts).
[0022] The second motor generator 60 is operated (e.g., driven) when power is applied (e.g., thereto), and the second transmission 70 may be connected to the second motor generator 60. The second transmission 70 may transmit power (e.g., mechanical power) to the output device 50. For example, the second motor generator 60 may rotate the second transmission 70 to provide drive power (e.g., mechanical drive power). When rotational power of the output device 50 is provided (e.g., transmitted) to the second motor generator 60 through the second transmission 70, the second motor generator 60 may generate power (e.g., electrical power).
[0023] Differential 80 may mesh (e.g., engage) with output device 50 to supply power (e.g., mechanical power) to wheels. For example, differential 80 may be a differential gear that divides (e.g., splits) and distributes driving force of the right and left wheels (e.g., the right and left wheels, e.g., for these wheels) to enable different rotation (e.g., a different (wheel) speed) on the right and left sides.
[0024] The input device 20 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure / invention may include an input shaft 21, a permanent input gear (e.g., a constant input gear) 22, and an optional input gear (e.g., an optional input gear, e.g., an optionally (e.g., selectively) meshed input gear) 23.
[0025] The input shaft 21 may be connected to the internal combustion engine 10. For example, the input shaft 21 may be directly connected to the internal combustion engine 10 and rotate about the shaft (e.g., around itself) when the internal combustion engine 10 is operated (e.g., driven). The input shaft 21 may be arranged between the first transmission 40 and the output device 50.
[0026] The permanent input gear 22 may be permanently connected to the input shaft 21 (e.g., in the form of a fixed gear). The permanent input gear 22 may mesh with the first gear 40. For example, the permanent input gear 22 may be permanently connected to the first gear 40 to transmit power.
[0027] The optional input gear 23 may be optionally (e.g., in the form of an idler gear) connected to the input shaft 21 and may be engaged (e.g., disengaged) with the output device 50. For example, the optional input gear 23 may be automatically or manually connected to the input shaft 21 to transmit rotational power, or may be spaced apart (e.g., separated) from the input shaft 21 to limit rotational power transmission.
[0028] The optional input gear 23 may be arranged closer to the internal combustion engine 10 than the permanent input gear 22.
[0029] The optional input gear 23 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure / invention may include a first optional gear (e.g., a first optional gear, e.g., a first optionally engaged gear) 231 and a second optional shifting element (e.g., a second optionally engaged shifting element) 232.
[0030] The first optional gear 231 may be arranged concentrically with the input shaft 21 and may mesh with the output device 50. For example, the first optional gear 231 may be rotatably supported (e.g., journaled) in a housing (not shown), and the input shaft 21 may be inserted through the first optional gear 231.
[0031] The second optional shifting element 232 may be provided (e.g., arranged, e.g., attached) on the input shaft 21 and may optionally (e.g., selectively) engage (e.g., engage, e.g., be brought into engagement) with the first optional gear 231. For example, the second optional shifting element 232 may be continuously connected to the input shaft 21 and may be connected to or disconnected from the first optional gear 231 in response (e.g., in response) to an actuation signal. When the second optional shifting element 232 is connected to the first optional gear 231, a rotational force of the input shaft 21 may be transmitted to the first optional gear 231. When the second optional switching element 232 is separated from the first optional gear 231, a rotational force of the input shaft 21 cannot be transmitted to the first optional gear 231.
[0032] The first transmission 40 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure / invention may include a first transmission shaft (e.g., a first transmission shaft, e.g., a first transmission shaft) 41 and a first transmission gear (e.g., a first transmission gear, e.g., a first transmission gear) 42.
[0033] The first transmission shaft 41 may be connected to the first motor generator 30 and arranged parallel to the input shaft 21. For example, the first transmission shaft 41 may be connected to a rotating shaft provided in the first motor generator 30 or may be configured to extend therefrom.
[0034] The first transfer gear 42 may be provided (e.g., arranged, e.g., attached) on the first transfer shaft 41 and may be configured to remain engaged with the permanent input gear 22. For example, the first transfer gear 42 and the permanent input gear 22 may remain in constant connection so that rotational force may be transmitted (e.g., between them).
[0035] The output device 50 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure / invention may include an output shaft 51, an output transmission gear 52, and an output differential gear 53.
[0036] The output shaft 51 may be arranged between the input device 20 and the second transmission 70. For example, the output shaft 51 may be rotatably supported (e.g., supported) in a housing (not shown), and the input shaft 21 and the output shaft 51 may be arranged parallel (e.g., parallel to each other, e.g., parallel to each other with respect to their respective extension directions).
[0037] The output transmission gear 52 may be provided (e.g., arranged, e.g., mounted) on the output shaft 51 and may be connected to the optional input gear 23 and the second transmission 70. For example, the output transmission gear 52 may remain in constant communication with the optional input gear 23 and the second transmission 70.
[0038] The output differential gear 53 may be provided (e.g., arranged, e.g., mounted) on the output shaft 51 and may be connected to the differential 80. For example, the output transmission gear 52 may be arranged closer to the first motor generator 30 or the second motor generator 60 than the output differential gear 53.
[0039] The second transmission 70 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure / invention may include a second transmission shaft (e.g., a second transmission shaft, e.g., a second transmission shaft) 71 and a second transmission gear (e.g., a second transmission gear, e.g., a second transmission gear) 72.
[0040] The second transmission shaft 71 may be connected to the second motor generator 60 and arranged parallel to the input shaft 21. For example, the second transmission shaft 71 may be connected to or configured to extend from a rotating shaft provided in the second motor generator 60.
[0041] The second transmission gear 72 may be provided (e.g., arranged, e.g., attached) on the second transmission shaft 71 and may mesh (e.g., engage) with the output transmission gear 52. For example, the second transmission gear 72 may be continuously connected to the output transmission gear 52 to transmit power.
[0042] The differential 80 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure / invention may include a differential gear (e.g., a differential gear) 81 and a differential connection (e.g., a differential connecting member) 82.
[0043] The differential gear 81 can provide (e.g., supply) power to the wheels. For example, the differential gear 81 can be a differential gear that distributes power to the right and left wheels.
[0044] The differential connection 82 may be provided on the differential gear 81 and may mesh with the output differential gear 53. For example, the differential connection 82 may be rotatably mounted in a housing (not shown) and may remain in constant communication with the output differential gear 53. The differential connection 82 may transmit rotational force from the output differential gear 53 to the differential gear 81.

When the internal combustion engine 10 is operated (e.g., driven), a rotational force of the input shaft 21 is transmitted through the optional input gear 23 to the output transmission gear 52 to rotate the output shaft 51. When the output shaft 51 rotates, the differential 80, which is connected to the output differential gear 53, rotates to provide the first-gear drive force to the wheels. When the input shaft 21 rotates, the first transmission 40 can rotate through the permanent input gear 22, so that the first engine power generator (e.g., the first motor generator) 30 can generate power (e.g., electric power).
