Hybrid powertrain for a pedal vehicle, control unit therefor, pedal vehicle
A powertrain for a pedal vehicle, such as a bicycle, which powertrain comprises a first and a second electric motor and a planetary gear set comprising a sun gear, a ring gear and a planet carrier, wherein the sun gear is connected to the first motor, the ring gear is connected to the crank axle receiving the user input, and the planet carrier is connected to an output of the powertrain for transmitting power to at least one output element, such as a wheel, of the vehicle, wherein the second motor is directly connected to the output of the powertrain.
GEARBOX WITH MULTIPLE PLANETARY GEAR SETS HAVING SAME TYPE OF CENTER GEAR
A gearbox with multiple planetary gear sets having the same type of center gears includes a planetary gear set, a planetary gear set structure, an input end, an output end and a locking end, and brakes (8). The gearbox adopts at least three planetary gear sets having the same type of center gears (sun gears) or three planetary gear sets having the same type of center gears (ring gears) to form a star-connected planetary gear set structure. A planet carrier (7) is used as the input end, any of the center gears (1) is used as the output end, and the remaining center gears (2, 3) are each used as a locking end. The gearbox adopts at least two brakes (8), each of the brakes (8) connected to a locking end. The brakes (8) are controlled by a gear shift control device to be in any of a braking state, a half-braking state and a non-braking state. The gearbox controls the gear by controlling the braking of the brakes (8).
