GEAR UNIT AND DRIVE TRAIN FOR A VEHICLE
A powertrain of a vehicle includes a stepped planetary gearset, a first gear shifting element and a second gear shifting element. The stepped planetary gearset has a first sun gear and a second sun gear, a first ring gear and a plurality of stepped planet gears rotatably mounted at a first planet carrier. The first ring gear is configured to drivingly connect to an electric machine. The first planet carrier is connectable to an output shaft of the gear unit to be fixed with respect to relative rotation. The first gear shifting element is configured to fix the second sun gear relative to a housing in a closed state, and the second gear shifting element is configured to fix the first sun gear relative to the housing in a closed state. One of the two gear shifting elements is in the closed state for driving the output shaft in rotation.
HYBRID DRIVE MODULE
A hybrid drive module is disclosed. An exemplary embodiment of the present invention provides a hybrid drive module that selectively transmits torque transmitted from an engine and a motor to a transmission including a housing disposed between the engine and the transmission, a drive shaft rotatably mounted inside the housing in a radial direction with its one end portion toward the engine based on an axial direction protruding from the housing and to which torque of the engine is inputted, a rotor hub provided within the housing and mounted with a rotor of the motor on its radially outer side, and in which a hub plate part integrally extending toward the drive shaft and rotatably connected to the other end portion of the drive shaft toward the transmission based on the axial direction is formed on its radially inner side, a rotor hub ridge, an inner circumferential surface of which is rotatably supported by the housing based on the radial direction and an external circumferential surface of which is fixed to the rotor hub based on the axial direction at the side of the engine, an engine clutch disposed at the engine side in the axial direction with the hub plate part interposed therebetween, and configured to directly connect the drive shaft and the rotor hub to selectively transmit the torque of the engine to the rotor hub, and a torque converter disposed at the side of the transmission in the axial direction with the hub plate part interposed therebetween to be connected to the rotor hub, and configured to multiply the torque of the engine, torque of the motor, or the torque of the engine and the motor when a vehicle is initially driven, or to transmit it to the transmission in a ratio of 1:1, wherein at least one fluid groove for supplying an operating fluid to the rotor to cool the rotor between the rotor hub and the engine clutch is formed on a surface of the hub plate part toward the engine clutch based on the axial direction.
VEHICULAR DISPLAY DEVICE
There is provided a small-sized HUD device having a high image display reliability and a high thermal reliability. A HUD device 1 includes: an image display unit 2 including a display panel (liquid crystal panel) 22 that displays an image, and an optical system 3 that projects image light of the displayed image onto a windshield of a vehicle, in which a virtual image of the image is visually recognized by light reflected off the windshield. In the image display unit 2, an effective display region 22a that displays the image is set to a region on a side close to one end of the display panel 22. The optical system 3 includes a first reflector 31 that reflects the image light emitted from the image display unit 2 and a second reflector 32 that reflects the reflected light of the first reflector 31 toward the windshield. The image display unit 2 is disposed to face the first reflector 31, and the display panel 22 is disposed in an attitude in which the one end faces the second reflector side 32.
Cable system for a truck trailer
A cable system for a truck trailer for reducing the number and/or size of wiring in a commercial trailer cable system from seven to four, three, or two, while also facilitating bidirectional communication with all connected electronic devices in the trailer. The cable system has a ground cable, a power cable, and zero, one or two additional communication cables that may carry analog and/or digital communications between the control circuit and components of the trailer such as turn signal lamps, brake lamps, backup cameras, environmental sensors, and the like. A transformer for increasing the voltage on the power cable is disclosed, allowing the power and ground cables to be smaller without reducing power delivered to the trailer.
Two-Seater Off-Road Vehicle
A two-seater off-road vehicle includes a travel vehicle body that is supported on the ground by a front wheel unit and a rear wheel unit, and a boarding part disposed above a vehicle body frame included in the travel vehicle body. The boarding part includes: a driver seat; a steering operation tool in front of the driver seat; and a passenger seat of a saddle seat type behind the driver seat.
VEHICLE AIR CONDITIONER
A vehicle air conditioner, and more specifically, to a vehicle air conditioner in which an air conditioning module and a cooling module are integrally formed, thereby enabling miniaturization so as to enable increased space utilization inside an engine room, and enabling increased manufacturability.
Structure for opening and closing fuel filler opening
A structure for opening and closing a fuel filler opening having a main flap and a dust flap that are opened or closed in accordance with insertion or removal of a fuel gun to a filler pipe. The dust flap is arranged at an outer end side with respect to the main flap, and is constituted by a plurality of flaps arranged flush with each other. The dust flap is opened such that ends of the respective flaps are separated from each other by the fuel gun inserted into the filler pipe.
DRIVING FORCE TRANSMISSION APPARATUS AND FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLE
A driving force transmission apparatus includes: a pinion gear shaft having a pinion teeth portion, a first shaft portion extending from one side of the pinion teeth portion, and a second shaft portion extending from the other side of the pinion teeth portion; a ring gear meshing with the pinion teeth portion; a clutch housing capable of rotating relative to the pinion gear shaft on a rotation axis in coincidence with a rotation axis of the pinion gear shaft; a clutch mechanism located between the clutch housing and the first shaft portion of the pinion gear shaft; and a differential carrier accommodating the ring gear. The first shaft portion and the second shaft portion of the pinion gear shaft are supported by a first bearing and a second bearing, respectively. The clutch housing is supported by the pinion gear shaft through a third bearing fitted on the first shaft portion.
Gearing device with secondarily coupled power split
A transmission device (1) with secondarily coupled power splitting in which part of an applied torque can be conducted, in a first power branch (3) at least by way of a hydrostatic system (4), and the other part of the torque can be conducted in a second power branch (5) via mechanical system (6), located between a transmission input (7) and a transmission output (8).
