ELECTRIFIED MILITARY VEHICLE

A driveline including a motor/generator configured to receive power from an engine and output power to a tractive element, an accessory drive configured to receive power from the engine and output power to an accessory, and an energy storage system including a battery, the energy storage system electrically coupled to the motor/generator and the accessory drive. The driveline is operable in a charge mode with the motor/generator and the accessory drive providing electrical power to the energy storage system. The driveline is operable in a silent mobility mode with the energy storage system providing electrical power to the motor/generator and the accessory drive to operate the military vehicle.

ELECTRIFIED MILITARY VEHICLE

A driveline includes an engine, a transmission configured to couple to an axle of the electrified military vehicle, a tractive motor coupled to the transmission, an engine clutch positioned between the engine and the tractive motor, and an accessory drive. The accessory drive includes an accessory motor, an accessory clutch including a first portion and a second portion, an accessory coupled to the first portion, a first belt coupling the first portion to the accessory motor, and a second belt coupling the second portion to the engine.

Electrified military vehicle

A military vehicle including a chassis, an engine, a motor/generator, and an energy storage system. The chassis including a passenger capsule including a rear wall, and a rear module coupled to the passenger capsule. The rear module including a rear subframe assembly, a left rear wheel well, a right rear wheel well, and a bed. The engine coupled to the chassis for providing mechanical power to the military vehicle and the motor/generator coupled to the engine. The energy storage system including a lower support coupled to the bed, a lower isolator mount coupled to the lower support, a battery electrically coupled to the motor/generator and coupled to the isolation mounts such that the weight of the battery is supported via the lower isolator mount and the lower support, a bracket coupled to the battery, and an upper isolator mount coupling the bracket to the rear wall of the passenger capsule.

Electrified military vehicle

A military vehicle includes a chassis, a front axle, a rear axle, an energy storage system, a first driver, a transmission, and a second driver. The chassis includes a passenger capsule, a front module coupled to the passenger capsule, and a rear module coupled to the passenger capsule. The passenger capsule defines a tunnel extending longitudinally along a bottom thereof. The front axle is coupled to the front module. The rear axle is coupled to the rear module. The first driver is supported by the front module. The transmission is positioned within the tunnel and coupled to the front axle and/or the rear axle. The second driver is at least partially positioned within the tunnel and positioned between the first driver and the transmission. The second driver includes a motor/generator coupled to the transmission and a clutch positioned to selectively couple the first driver to the motor/generator.

Systems and methods for adaptive pulse width modulation

Methods and systems are provided for adaptive pulse width modulated control of an electrified powertrain of a vehicle. In one example, a method may include perturbing a switching frequency for pulse width modulated control of the electrified powertrain, and, responsive to sound measured in a vehicle cabin indicating a noise improvement after the perturbation, controlling the electrified powertrain with the perturbed switching frequency. In this way, acoustic emissions from an electrified powertrain may be reduced.

Electrified military vehicle

A driveline for a military vehicle includes a driver. The driver includes a housing, a motor/generator, and a clutch. The housing includes an engine mount configured to couple to an engine and a backing plate configured to couple to a transmission. The motor/generator is disposed within the housing and configured to couple to an input of the transmission. The clutch is disposed within the housing and coupled to the motor/generator. The clutch is configured to selectively couple an output of the engine to the motor/generator. The clutch is spring-biased into engagement with the engine and pneumatically disengaged by an air supply selectively provided thereto.

Exhaust fluid collision type muffler

A muffler may include a thin plate mesh provided in an internal space of an inlet chamber formed at a side opposite to an outlet chamber of a muffler housing such that gas contained in exhaust fluid passes through the thin plate mesh by collision of the exhaust fluid against the thin plate mesh and water contained in the exhaust fluid is separated from the gas; a water movement guide fluidically-connected to the inlet chamber and the outlet chamber for allowing the water gathered at the front side of the thin plate mesh in the internal space of the inlet chamber to flow therein and move to the outlet chamber; and a muffler pipe connected to the inlet chamber and the outlet chamber for allowing the gas gathered at the rear side of the thin plate mesh in the internal space of the inlet chamber to move to the outlet chamber.

VEHICLE CONTROLLER

A vehicle controller controls a power train of a vehicle and is configured to switch control of the power train between first control and second control. The second control reduces operating noise of the power train by a greater degree than the first control. The vehicle controller is configured to based on sounds in a passenger compartment, perform mood determination in order to determine whether an occupant of the vehicle is in a state of high tolerance for the operating noise or in a state of low tolerance for the operating noise; control the power train through the first control when determining that the occupant is in the state of high tolerance through the mood determination; and control the power train through the second control when determining that the occupant is in the state of low tolerance through the mood determination.

Control unit for generating PWM pulses for an inverter

A control unit generates pulse width modulation (PWM) pulses for an inverter. The control unit has a noise reducer configured to generate an opposing signal for active noise reduction. The noise reducer is configured to set a phase angle of the opposing signal based upon a predefined PWM frequency.

Heat pump system for vehicle

A heat pump system for a vehicle may include a cooling apparatus including a radiator, a first water pump, a first valve, and a reservoir tank which are connected through a coolant line, and configured to circulate a coolant in the coolant line to cool at least one electrical component provided in the coolant line; a battery cooling apparatus configured to include a battery coolant line connected to the reservoir tank through a second valve, and a second water pump and a battery module which are connected through the battery coolant line to circulate the coolant in the battery module; and a heating apparatus including a heating line connected to the coolant line through a third valve to heat a vehicle interior by use of a coolant and a third water pump provided on the heating line, and a heater.
