A motorized shade comprising a roller tube, a shade material connected to the roller tube, and a motor drive unit operably connected to the roller tube. The motor drive unit comprises a motor adapted to create torque to rotate the roller tube to lower or raise the shade material and a force sensor positioned at a point along the motor drive unit that resists the torque created by the motor resulting in a reaction force that is detected by the force sensor. The motor drive unit further comprises a motor control module adapted to receive sensor readings from the force sensor and control the motor in response to detecting an abrupt change in the reaction force using the received sensor readings to enable shade control via pulling of the shade material as well as or alternatively obstacle detection to minimize damage to the roller shade and users.

The present invention provides a modular transmission mechanism for a hybrid power system, and a hybrid power system; the modular transmission mechanism integrates a motor, a rotor support assembly, a clutch, a concentric slave cylinder, and an engine output shaft. On the one hand, the modular transmission mechanism enables an input/output bracket of the clutch to be in drive coupling with the engine output shaft, and the rotor support assembly to be in drive coupling with an input shaft of a transmission; on the other hand, the modular transmission mechanism enables the input/output bracket of the clutch to be in drive coupling with the input shaft of the transmission, and the rotor support assembly to be in drive coupling with the engine output shaft. In this way, the modular transmission mechanism according to the present invention can realize a conversion of the hybrid power system between a P1 architecture and a P2 architecture only by simple adjustment on the structure, thereby reducing the research and development cost and burden consumed by separately developing the P1 architecture and the P2 architecture.
