  • Patent number: 11186161
    Abstract: A hybrid transmission and a vehicle having the hybrid transmission. An engine, a generator, and a motor are coaxially arranged; a first planetary gear set is separately connected to a crankshaft of the engine and a rotor of the generator; a clutch comprises a first driving end connected to a planet carrier of the first planetary gear set and a second driving end connected to a ring gear of a second planetary gear set, wherein the first driving end and the second driving end are involved in engagement and disengagement; a rotor of the motor is connected to a sun gear axle of the second planetary gear set. When the motor performs driving, the clutch is disengaged from the engine and the generator to avoid a drag resistance of the engine.

  • Patent number: 11180016
    Abstract: The present invention provides a power system for a hybrid vehicle, relating to the field of hybrid vehicles. The power system mainly includes an engine, a first motor, a second motor, a first planetary gear mechanism, a second planetary gear mechanism, a first input shaft, a first clutch, a brake, and a second clutch. Since the second motor is connected to the first input shaft through the second planetary gear mechanism, the planetary gear mechanism can reduce the speed of the second motor and increase the torque to effectively reduce the size of the second motor or improve the acceleration performance of the vehicle. Since the first clutch between the first input shaft and the engine is disengaged when driven by the second motor, the drag resistance of the engine is reduced, and the fuel economy of the vehicle is improved.
