DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0109] Reference will now be made to embodiments of the invention, one or more examples of which are shown in the drawings. Each embodiment is provided by way of explanation of the invention, and not as a limitation of the invention. For example, features illustrated or described as part of one embodiment can be combined with another embodiment to yield still another embodiment. It is intended that the present invention include these and other modifications and variations to the embodiments described herein.
[0110]
[0111]
[0112] The second transmission input shaft 9 has two ends, namely one end 11 pointing toward the outer side of the hybrid transmission device 3 and one end 13 pointing toward the inner side of the hybrid transmission device 3.
[0113] An engagement device S1, mounted on the transmission input shaft 7, with a clutch K3 and a gearshift clutch C follows. By the gearshift clutch C, an idler gear 14 can be rotationally fixed to the transmission input shaft 7. The idler gear 14 is the idler gear of the third gear step G3.
[0114] On the first transmission input shaft 7, the fixed gears 16 and 18 follow, wherein the fixed gear 16 is the fixed gear of the first gear step G1 and the fixed gear 18 is the fixed gear of the fifth gear step G5.
[0115] The second transmission input shaft 9 is therefore designed to be shift element-free and idler gear-free. Two engagement devices S1 and S4 are arranged on the first transmission input shaft 7. The engagement device S1 includes the clutch K3 and the gearshift clutch C and, therefore, is designed to be two-sided.
[0116] The axis of rotation of the first transmission input shaft 7 and of the second transmission input shaft 9 is labeled with A1.
[0117] The hybrid transmission device 3 includes a single countershaft 22 for connection to a differential 20 and to form the gear stages or gear steps. Two engagement devices S2 and S3 are arranged on the countershaft 22 with the gearshift clutches A, B, D, and E for connecting the idler gears 24, 26, 30, and 32 to the countershaft 22. As the only gear-implementing fixed gear, the fixed gear 34 is located between the idler gears 24, 26, 30, and 32 on the countershaft 22. The assignment to the gear steps results on the basis of the gear step numbers G1 through G5 below the gearwheels arranged on the countershaft 22. The fixed gear 36 is not a gear-implementing fixed gear. The fixed gear 36 connects the countershaft 22 to the differential 20 as a drive output constant. On the basis of this scheme, the following can be determined with respect to the forward gear steps: one fixed gear and one idler gear are associated with each forward gear step and, in fact, a single fixed gear and a single idler gear in each case. Each fixed gear and idler gear are always unambiguously associated with a single forward gear step, i.e., there are no winding-path gears by utilizing one gearwheel for multiple gear steps. Nevertheless, the forward gear steps G2 and G4 can be considered to be coupling gears, since the first transmission input shaft 7 is interconnected during the formation of the forward gear steps G2 and G4.
[0118] The electric motors EM1 and EM2 are attached as shown and, in fact, at the axially external gearwheels 10 and 18. As a result, it is possible to attach the electric motors EM1 and EM2 without additional gearwheels on one of the transmission input shafts 7 and 9, as the result of which installation space is saved. In particular, due to the attachment of the electric motors EM1 and EM2 at the axially outermost gearwheels 10 and 18, an axially extremely short hybrid transmission device 3 can be created.
[0119] The electric motors EM1 and EM2 are arranged in parallel to the transmission input shaft 7 and the electric motors EM1 and EM2 have the output at opposite sides. This means, as shown in
[0120]
[0121]
[0122] The described hybrid transmission device 3 has several functional advantages. For example, due to the described arrangement, both electric motors can be operated as a motor and as a generator. As a result, it is possible, for example, to provide a crawler gear, which is entered as gear E1 in the shift pattern for the electric motor EM1. It has a ratio of over forty (40). For this purpose, the clutch K2 and the gearshift clutch A are engaged. Since the crawler gear produced with the hybrid transmission device 3 is formed via driving with the electric motor EM1, the electric motor EM2 can be utilized as a generator in the meantime. In the crawler gear E1, therefore, the electric motor EM1 is utilized as a motor and the electric motor EM2 is utilized as a generator.
[0123] This is also the sole utilization of the clutch K2.
[0124] Of course, the crawler gear E1 can also be operated in a battery electric manner. In this case, only the gearshift clutch A is necessarily engaged. Clutch K2 can be disengaged.
[0125] In each of the electric motor-operated forward gears E3 and E5, one of the gearshift clutches C or E is engaged, as the result of which the described ratios are produced. In these gears as well, it is possible to engage clutch K2 and utilize electric motor EM2 as a generator.
[0126] With the electric motor EM2, two electric motor-operated forward gears E2 and E4 can also be produced. For this purpose, only the second transmission input shaft 9 and the shift element S2, with one of the clutches B or D in each case, are utilized. In these gears, it is possible, therefore, to engage clutch K1 and utilize electric motor EM1 as a generator.
[0127] By the two electric motors EM1 and EM2, five electric forward gears, including one crawler gear, can therefore be formed, wherein only one of the two sub-transmissions 36 or 38 must be integrated in each case.
[0128] The gearshift clutches A through E and at least the clutches K2 and K3 are advantageously designed as dog clutches. Preferably, the clutch K1 is also designed as a dog clutch. An internal-combustion-engine gear change under load takes place by utilization of the electric motors EM1 and/or EM2.
[0129] The gear change from the internal-combustion-engine gear V1 into the internal-combustion-engine gear V2 is described in the following. In the internal-combustion-engine forward gear V1, the clutch K1 and the gearshift clutch A are engaged. In addition, the gearshift clutch B can be engaged, but not yet loaded. Thereupon, the electric motor EM1 is operated as a generator in such a way that the cumulative torque of the internal combustion engine 2 and of the electric motor EM1 is approximately equal to zero (0), while the electric motor EM2 applies the torque at the drive output. The torque reduction or increase can take place linearly in each case. As a result, the gearshift clutch A becomes load-free and can be disengaged.
[0130] Thereafter, the electric motor EM1 and the internal combustion engine 2 synchronize the first transmission input shaft 7, via which no torque is transmitted in this moment, with respect to the second transmission input shaft 9, and so the clutch K3 can be engaged. Finally, a load change from the electric motor EM2 to the internal combustion engine 2 takes place, as the result of which the internal-combustion-engine forward gear V2 is achieved. In the internal-combustion-engine second forward gear V2, the gearshift clutch B is engaged. Therefore, the electric motor EM2 can be operated as a generator in this case, provided the gearshift clutch B is to be disengaged again.
[0131]
[0132]
[0133]
[0134] The electric motor EM1 does not need to be continuously operated as a generator, as described. Rather, a change-over can be carried out between the electric motors EM1 and EM2.
[0135] With regard to the nomenclature, the first number of the hybrid gear designates the internal-combustion-engine gear and the second number designates an electric motor-operated gear. It is not expressed whether the first electric motor is operated as a motor or as a generator, for example, in the hybrid gear H32.
[0136]
[0137] Rotational speeds are represented in the upper section, engine/motor torques are represented in the middle section, and the output torque is represented in the lower section.
[0138] At the point in time to, a gear shift is present as shown in
[0139] In addition, at the point in time t.sub.1, the electric motor EM2 begins to ramp up, starting from its start value, to a target value 52. The motor torque of the electric motor EM2 is represented in the curve 54. If the target values 48 and 50 are selected in such a way that the target values 48 and 50 have the same amount, this means the cumulative torque of the internal combustion engine 2 and the electric motor EM1 is equal to zero (0), as the result of which the clutch K3 becomes load-free and can be disengaged. This disengagement of the clutch K3 takes place between the points in time t.sub.2 and t.sub.3.
[0140] In this interval, i.e., between the points in time t.sub.2 and t.sub.3, only the electric motor EM2 drives the motor vehicle 1, since the torques of the internal combustion engine 2 and the electric motor EM1 cancel each other out as described. Starting at the point in time t.sub.3, the torque of the internal combustion engine 2 is reduced further, in order to bring the rotational speed of the transmission input shaft 7 to the rotational speed, at which a ratio with respect to the rotational speed of the countershaft 22 is reached, at which the gearshift clutch C can be engaged.
[0141] Between the points in time t.sub.2 and t.sub.6, in which only or mainly the electric motor EM2 drives, the output torque 53 is lower than in the case of an assistance or take-over by the internal combustion engine 2.
[0142] Starting at the point in time t.sub.5, the generator operation of the electric motor EM1 begins to end. The electric motor EM1 is ramped up to the initial value and/or the initial torque 46. Simultaneously, the torque of the internal combustion engine 2 is also increased to its initial value 44. As soon as the electric motor EM1 has ended the operation as a generator at the point in time t.sub.6, the torque output of the electric motor EM2 is reduced and, in fact, also back to the initial value. At the point in time t.sub.7, the torque output of the electric motors EM1 and EM2 is at the initial value again. The torque output of the internal combustion engine 2 is increased slightly up to the point in time t.sub.8.
[0143]

[0146] The crawler gear E1 can be implemented via the gear step G1, wherein, in the example embodiment according to
[0147] The electric motors EM1 and EM2 are power shiftable with each other in this configuration as well.
