Abstract:
A split serial-parallel hybrid dual-power drive system, comprised of two or more than two separation drive systems allowing independent operation to respectively drive the load, or all loads driven individually are incorporated in a common frame to drive land, surface, underwater transportation means or aircraft, industrial machines and equipment or any other load drive by rotational kinetic energy.

Abstract:
In an electric force transmission device employing two motor generators and a differential device having at least three rotating members and having two degrees of freedom, the first rotating member is coupled to the first motor generator, the second rotating member is coupled to the second motor generator, and the third rotating member is coupled to an output shaft and laid out to be located between the first and the second rotating members on an aligmnent chart. Also, a controller is configured to control the motor generators such that, when the output shaft is driven from its stopped state, before the driving is started, the first and second motor generators are rotated oppositely to each other, while keeping a rotational speed of the output shaft at the stopped state.
Abstract:
A control device includes a target rotation speed determination unit that determines a target rotation speed of an engine, a filtering process unit that receives an output of the target rotation speed determination unit, changes the received output such that the target rotation speed changes gently, and outputs the changed output, a property switching control unit that switches properties of the filtering process unit in accordance with a vehicle state, and a first torque value calculation unit that calculates a target torque of a motor generator in accordance with a difference between the output of the filtering process unit and an actual rotation speed of the engine. Preferably, the property switching control unit increases a time constant of the filtering process in accordance with a shift switch instruction to switch a vehicle state from a traveling state to a neutral state.
Abstract:
An electrically variable transmission has a differential gear set with first, second and third members operatively connected between an input member and an output member. The input member is also operatively connected to an engine for receiving power from the engine. The transmission also includes a compound motor/generator that has a single stator and at least two rotors, referred to herein as first and second rotors. The single stator is operable to provide power to, receive power from and transfer power between the two rotors. The rotors are each operatively connected to a different respective member of the differential gear set. The transmission has a mechanical power path and an electromechanical power path. In some embodiments, selectively engagable torque-transmitting mechanisms are positioned to allow various modes of electrically variable power flow. Input-split and compound-split embodiments are presented. Embodiments having coaxial rotors and embodiments having axially-adjacent, axially aligned rotors are presented.
Abstract:
Monitoring operation of an electromechanical transmission having a hydraulic circuit with flow management valves and pressure control solenoids to actuate clutches and pressure monitoring devices to monitor the hydraulic circuit is provided. The transmission operates in fixed gear and continuously variable operating range states. The method comprises controlling position of one of the flow management valves to control operation in one of the operating range states. A fault is detected in the one of the flow management valves based upon outputs of the pressure monitoring devices during steady state operation in one of the continuously variable operating range states. A fault is detected in the one of the flow management valves based upon the output of one of the pressure monitoring devices during a transition in the flow management valve.
Abstract:
A single mode, compound-split transmission is provided having two mechanical power paths. One mechanical path is primarily active at low speed ratios with the other path being primarily active in high speed ratios. A reduction ratio is available in the path employed for high speed ratios, reducing electrical path power requirements. Additionally, the reduction ratio, allows both of two motor/generators to be of a relatively low torque design.

A power train for a hybrid vehicle includes an outer rotor-typed generator motor, disposed adjacent to an engine and concentric with an output shaft of the engine; a first planetary gear set including a sun gear provided to an outer rotor of the generator motor, carriers connected with the output shaft of the engine, and a ring gear; a driving motor, disposed opposite the engine with respect to the generator motor and concentric with the output shaft of the engine; a second planetary gear set including a sun gear, carriers, and a ring gear, one of which is connected to the driving motor, another of which is fixed, and the other of which is connected to the first planetary gear set; and a PTO (Power Take Off), which receives power from the ring gear of the first planetary gear set and transmits the power to a differential.
