A hybrid transmission device (3) includes at least one drive device (EM2) and a transmission (4) with a first transmission input shaft (12) and a second transmission input shaft (14) mounted on the first transmission input shaft (12). The at least one drive device (EM2) is arranged axially parallel and is connected to a gear-step gearwheel (16) arranged on the second transmission input shaft (14).

A hybrid vehicle including an engine, a drive motor, a first oil pump, and a second oil pump is configured to, during forward travel, supply components to be cooled or lubricated with oil discharged from a discharge port of the first oil pump and a discharge port of the second oil pump via an oil passage, while the hybrid vehicle is configured to, during reverse travel, compensate for a driving force by supplying oil discharged from the discharge port of the second oil pump to the discharge port of the first oil pump via the oil passage to cause the first oil pump to operate as a hydraulic motor.

A hybrid vehicle system includes an engine, a transmission mechanism, first and second clutch mechanisms, a motor generator, and a forward-reverse travel switching mechanism. The engine outputs torque. The transmission mechanism converts the torque at a predetermined transmission gear ratio. The first clutch mechanism allows and disallows power transmission between the transmission mechanism and a drive wheel. The motor generator is coupled to a power transmission path between the first clutch mechanism and the drive wheel. The second clutch mechanism allows and disallows power transmission between the motor generator and the drive wheel. The forward-reverse travel switching mechanism is coupled to a power transmission path between the engine and the transmission mechanism. The forward-reverse travel switching mechanism is coupled to a countershaft. The forward-reverse travel switching mechanism switches among a forward-travel direct coupling state, a reverse-travel direct coupling state, and a neutral state.

A power transmission apparatus of a hybrid vehicle using an engine and a motor-generator as a power source, includes a first shaft fixedly connected to an output side of the engine, a second shaft selectively connectable to the first shaft and fixedly connected to the motor-generator, a third shaft selectively connectable to the second shaft, a fourth shaft disposed without rotational interference in the external circumference of the third shaft, a fifth shaft externally geared with the third and fourth, a sixth shaft externally geared with the fourth shaft, a planetary gear set including first, second, and third rotation elements, and one of the three rotation elements is fixedly connected to the second shaft, the other rotation element is selectively connectable to a transmission housing, and the other rotation element is fixedly connected to the fourth, and four gear trains forming an external gear connection between the first, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth shafts.

A power transmission apparatus of a hybrid electric vehicle may include, a first shaft fixedly connected to an engine, a second shaft selectively connectable to the first shaft and fixedly connected to a motor-generator, a third shaft disposed on a same axis with the first shaft and selectively connectable to the second shaft, a fourth shaft disposed coaxially with the third shaft without rotational interference therebetween, a fifth shaft disposed in parallel with the third shaft and the fourth shaft and externally gear-meshed with the third shaft and the fourth shaft, a sixth shaft disposed in parallel with the third shaft and the fourth shaft and externally gear-meshed with the third shaft and the fourth shaft, a planetary gear set having three elements, one element being fixedly connected to the second shaft, another element being selectively connectable to a transmission housing, and a remaining element being fixedly connected to the fourth shaft, and four gear sets forming external gear engagements between the first shaft, the second shaft, the third shaft, the fourth shaft, the fifth shaft and the sixth shaft.

When a collision occurs, a driving force of a drive shaft is transmitted to a reversing high-load multiple disk clutch via an inertia absorbing gear mechanism. Then, the driving force is transmitted to a gear via a gear, and inertia is absorbed and the driving force acts to rotate an output shaft at a low speed. On the other hand, when the gear rotates, a regenerative/backing up motor also rotates, and so-called regenerative driving is also performed. Due to these operations, the output shaft rapidly decreases in rotation speed, and goes into a rotation stopping state from a forward rotating state. Then, when a vehicle speed sensor detects that the vehicle speed has reached “0,” the regenerative/backing up motor is driven, the output shaft is driven to rotate reversely for several seconds, and thereafter, driving of the regenerative/backing up motor is stopped.

A power transmission system of a vehicle may include: a first input shaft selectively connectable to an engine output through a first clutch; a second input shaft selectively connectable to the engine output through a second clutch; a first intermediate shaft; a second intermediate shaft; an output shaft disposed in parallel with and apart from the first intermediate shaft and transmitting power from the first intermediate shaft and the second intermediate shaft to a final reduction gear of a differential apparatus; a motor/generator fixedly connected to any one of the first input shaft and the first intermediate shaft; a continuously variable shifting device operably connecting the first input shaft to the first intermediate shaft; and a plurality of shifting gear sets operably connecting the second input shaft, the first and the second intermediate shaft and the output shaft with each other.

A 6-speed planetary transmission for a motor vehicle has an input shaft, an output shaft, a first planetary gear set, a second planetary gear set and a third planetary gear set. The input shaft can be coupled to the first planetary carrier or to the first ring gear via a first shifting element. The first sun gear can be coupled to a gearbox housing via a second shifting element. The first planetary carrier can be coupled to the first ring gear via a third shifting element. The second ring gear or the second planetary carrier can be coupled to the gearbox housing via a fourth shifting element. In addition, the first ring gear or the first planetary carrier, the second sun gear and the third sun gear are connected for conjoint rotation. In addition, the output shaft is connected for conjoint rotation to the second planetary carrier or the second ring gear.

An apparatus and method for controlling driving of a vehicle, and a vehicle system are provided. The apparatus according to the present disclosure includes a determination device that determines a closed state of an engine clutch, based on a state of a motor or an engine of the vehicle when a state of the engine clutch is unknown by an engine clutch controller. A state determination device receives information from the determination device to thus determine whether the engine clutch is in a closed or open state. A motor controller allows reverse rotation of the motor for reverse driving control of the vehicle in response to determining that the engine clutch is in the open state.

An engine clutch control apparatus of a vehicle including a transmission without a R-shift stage gear may include an engine clutch, a controller which determines whether an engine reverse rotation entry is possible for driving in reverse according to a failure diagnosis information of the engine clutch and executes a reverse rotation driving control according to the determination result, and a drive motor for reversely rotating the transmission according the reverse rotation driving control. The controller in the engine clutch control apparatus includes an engine reverse rotation entry possibility determining module and an engine exhaust gas forced discharge control module.
