A hybrid gearbox has a shift gearbox including at least one fixed ratio gear having a gear ratio both for the internal combustion engine and the electric motor-generator with respect to a power train connection, and speed superposition gearbox which is designed to provide a power-split gear having a variable speed ratio and a fixed torque ratio with respect to the internal combustion engine connection and the power train connection, wherein the variable speed ratio is formed by a modulation of a speed provided by the internal combustion engine on a speed provided by the electric motor-generator. The hybrid gearbox has at least one operating mode in which gear changes are only carried out between the fixed-ratio gear and the power-split gear.

Disclosed herein are an emergency operating system and an emergency operating method for a hybrid vehicle with a damaged bearing of an engine, which are capable of preventing a bearing from being further damaged due to a drive motor and a hybrid starter and generator (HSG) when damage to the bearing installed in an engine is detected and capable of driving the hybrid vehicle and which include a bearing damage detection operation, an engine driving maintaining operation, a first state of charge (SOC) comparison operation, and a first emergency operating operation.

A lubricant guide shell (32) for includes a first, radially extending section (33), which is provided for being situated axially opposite an end face (35) of a torque converter (9) in an installed state of the lubricant guide shell (32). The first section (33) transitions radially outwardly into a second, axially extending section (34), which, in the installed state of the lubricant guide shell (32), is configured for axially at least partially and radially outwardly encompassing the torque converter starting from the first section (33). The first section (33) as well as the second section (34) are configured to be completely circumferential.

A vehicle driving apparatus includes: an engine; a first rotary electric machine; first and second output shafts; a power distribution device for distributing a power between the first and second output shafts; and a control device for controlling an electric-power generation torque of a second rotary electric machine such that a power distribution ratio between the first and second output shafts becomes a target distribution ratio, and controlling a total torque of the engine and the first rotary electric machine such that a requested drive torque is obtained. The control device executes an electric-power consuming control to supply at least a part of a generated electric power generated by the second rotary electric machine, to the first rotary electric machine without via a power storage device, and to drive the first rotary electric machine, such that an operation state of the engine is brought close to a fuel-economy optimum state.

The present disclosure discloses an all-terrain vehicle. The all-terrain vehicle includes: a signal acquirer; an engine; an engine controller; a first differential; a first wheel; a driving motor; a motor controller; a battery power source electrically connected with the driving motor; a second differential in transmission connection with the driving motor; and second wheels in transmission connection with the second differential and are located at both lateral sides of the second differential. Therefore, by connecting and matching the first differential, the engine, the driving motor and the second differential with the corresponding components, the hybrid all-terrain vehicle allows intelligent four-wheel drive, reduces energy consumption, and has a compact and reasonable structure.

A rotational position sensor arrangement having first and second sensors positioned adjacent to an axial face of a target disc. The target disc has the axial face either one wave profile or radially spaced apart first and second wave profiles, having respectively, a first plurality of segments and a second plurality of segments, with each of the segments being formed with axially offset peaks and valleys which extend along radial lines. The valleys separate the segments, and the number of the first plurality of segments is different than the number of the second plurality of segments. The first and second sensors are located at different radial distances from the axis and signal a controller with data on a field variance due to a difference in at least one of a size or location of the one wave profile or the first and second wave profiles as they pass the first and second sensors in order to determine a rotational speed and/or position.

Methods and systems are provided for an engine. In one example, a method comprises stopping an engine via a soft-stop method in response to a likelihood of condensate forming being less than or equal to a threshold likelihood. The method further comprises stopping the engine via an exhaust gas evacuation method in response to the likelihood of condensate forming being greater than the threshold likelihood.
