  • Patent number: 8307925
    Abstract: The present invention provides a hybrid power driving system comprising: a first subsystem designed to input/output power; a second subsystem designed to input/output power; a driving shaft designed to receive power from the first subsystem and/or the second subsystem or output power to the first subsystem and/or the second subsystem; and a tri-stated overrunning clutch designed to connect the first subsystem and the second subsystem, wherein the tri-stated overrunning clutch may be in an overrun state, an engaged state, or a disengaged state. The first subsystem and the second subsystem can comprise an engine, a motor, and a clutch, etc., respectively. In such a hybrid power driving system, when the tri-stated overrunning clutch is in the engaged state, the first subsystem and the second subsystem are coupled to each other and work together.

  • Publication number: 20100011894
    Abstract: A vehicle drive device includes a main shaft operatively coupled to a motor of the vehicle, where the main shaft has a drive gear, and a countershaft having a drive gear and a driven gear. The drive gear of the main shaft is configured to engage the driven gear of the countershaft. Also included is a differential having a driven gear and a half axle gear, where the drive gear of the countershaft is configured to engage the driven gear of the differential, and the half axle gear of the differential is configured to drive a wheel of the vehicle. A parking mechanism is connected with the countershaft and is configured to lock the countershaft in a parking mode.
