Electric vehicle powertrain assembly having nested shafts
A drivetrain system includes a first drive gear driven by a first motor and a second drive gear driven by a second motor. The first drive gear and the second drive gear are arranged along the axis. The first drive gear includes a first extension and the second drive gear includes a second extension arranged radially within and axially overlapping the first extension. The drivetrain system includes a system of bearings arranged between the first drive gear and the second drive gear, either drive gear and a stationary component, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the drivetrain system includes a clutch assembly arranged between the first drive gear and the second drive gear that interfaces to the first drive gear and to the second drive gear. The clutch assembly allows the drive gears to be locked or otherwise engaged to improve torque transfer.
A VEHICLE
A multi wheeled vehicle includes: a body frame that includes a head pipe; a conversion assembly that includes an electric machine operatively connected to a transmission assembly; and a housing configured to accommodate at least one electronic component and at least one electrochemical cell, the housing being attached to the electric machine, the conversion assembly being mounted to a front lower portion of the body frame by means of one or more engine mounting brackets, and the conversion assembly being disposed below a fuel tank with at least a portion of the conversion assembly being overlapping a side cover of the multi wheeled vehicle in a vehicle side view.
INTEGRATED GEARBOX IN ELECTRIC MOTOR SYSTEMS
Methods and systems are provided for integrating a gearbox and an electric motor in a same housing. In one example, a system may include enclosing a gearbox containing an idler gear configured to drive an accessory gear coupled to a differential.
Driving system having oil circulation structure
Disclosed is a driving system having an oil circulation structure in which churned oil is collected in a housing and in which the collected oil is efficiently distributed to driving structures, which include a motor and a speed reducer, thereby smoothly cooling and lubricating the respective driving structures. In addition, it is possible to adjust the level of the oil depending on whether the driving structures are in a low-load state or a high-load state, thereby improving lubrication and cooling performance.
INTEGRATED THERMAL MANAGEMENT MODULE FOR VEHICLE
An integrated thermal management module for a vehicle includes a multi-channel including a plurality of valve spaces and a plurality of coolant channels communicating with the valve spaces and disposed around the valve spaces, a plurality of valve bodies inserted into the valve spaces, respectively, and configured to open and close the coolant channels around the valve spaces of the multi-channel upon operation, and a plurality of pumps coupled to the multi-channel. The valve spaces are formed on one side of the multi-channel, the valve bodies are coupled to the one side of the multi-channel, the pumps are coupled to an opposite side of the multi-channel, and a rotation axis of each of the valve bodies and a rotation axis of each of the pumps are identical.
POWER TRANSMISSION DEVICE AND VEHICLE
A vehicle includes a motor, a gear mechanism connected downstream of the motor, a box that has a motor chamber that houses the motor, a gear chamber that houses the gear mechanism and lubricating oil, and an exhaust pipe. A first cooling box, in which cooling liquid that cools the motor is introduced, is configured on an outer circumference of the motor. A second cooling box, which is connected so that cooling liquid can circulate between the second cooling box and the first cooling box, is configured on an outer circumference of the box. The motor chamber is arranged at a position spaced further apart from the exhaust pipe than the gear chamber.
Electric drive axle in a vehicle
An electric drive axle in a vehicle is provided. The electric drive axle includes, in one example, a housing configured to enclose an electric motor-generator and a gearbox. In the electric drive axle, the housing includes a first section that is removably coupled to a second section, the second section at least partially encloses the gearbox, the first section includes a first axle shaft opening, and the second section includes a second axle shaft opening that is laterally aligned with the first axle shaft opening.
System for vehicle noise and vibration reduction
A drive module for an electric vehicle having noise, vibration, and harshness counter measures. The drive module includes multiple covers and mass dampeners in order to detune vibration and noise from the cabin of the vehicle.
OIL-WATER DOUBLE-COOLING ELECTRIC DRIVE ASSEMBLY, AND NEW ENERGY AUTOMOBILE
An electric drive assembly with oil/water dual cooling is provided that includes a motor module, a gearbox module, a water cooling module and an oil cooling module. Lubricating oil is introduced into the front and rear windings of the motor through three oil conveying passages to improve the cooling performance of the motor. Moreover, the gearbox cavity and the motor cavity do not need to be sealed, which avoids the use of high-speed oil seal of motor shaft, and thus the cost of the drive assembly is reduced and the transmission efficiency is improved. The cooling fluid of the motor cools the lubricating oil through the heat exchanger of the gearbox, thereby solving the heat dissipation problem when the gearbox of the new energy vehicle operates at high speed constantly, and thus improving the service life and reliability of the gear and bearing.
TRANSMISSION DEVICE
A transmission device is formed by combining a planetary gear-type reduction gear and a differential device, wherein at least one of first and second planetary gear portions in a two-stage planetary gear has gear teeth that receive a thrust load due to meshing with opposing gear, a power-transmission case formed by joining a carrier to a differential case is rotatably supported on a transmission case. A pivot shaft of the planetary gear has one end thereof on the first planetary gear portion side supported on the power-transmission case via a first bearing and the other end on the second planetary gear portion side supported on the power-transmission case via a second bearing, and the thrust loads on one side and on the other side in an axial direction are supported only by the first bearing among the first and second bearings. Thus, a wall portion of the power-transmission case pivotably supporting the second planetary gear portion is reduced in size in the radial direction, contributing to a reduction in size of the transmission case in the radial direction.
