Publication number: 20240359699Abstract: A vehicle shifting mechanism includes a transmission box, a gear-shifting driving unit and a gearshift lever. Through electrical connection between a manual switch and the gear-shifting driving unit, the operation of controlling the forward or reverse gear is carried out, so that the gear-shifting driving unit drives the gearshift lever to produce the action of pushing down the gear or pushing up the gear. Through an auto switch located beside the grip of the vehicle, and in cooperation with a vehicle control unit, when the auto switch is turned on to be in automatic shift mode, the vehicle control unit receives the data of the main power motor or the engine speed and torque load of the vehicle to activate the gear-shifting driving unit to drive the gearshift lever to generate a fully automatic downshifting gear or an upshifting gear and a neutral gear control.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 9, 2024Publication date: October 31, 2024Inventors: KUO-HSIN SU, TA-YU SU, HSUN-I LEE

Patent number: 8602145Abstract: A driving system for electric vehicle is disclosed to use a clutch switching unit for controlling a motor rotor-driven bushing to rotate a wheel hub via a direct-drive active clutch or via a set of planet gears and a reducing clutch. At the initial state after startup of the motor, the direct-drive active clutch runs idle, enabling the wheel hub to provide a low-speed high-torque output, saving power consumption. When the vehicle speed reaches a predetermined level, a control circuit drives a clutch motor to move the clutch switching unit in releasing the reducing clutch to idle the planet gears, enabling the direct-drive active clutch to be switched on so that the rotor of the motor can rotate the wheel hub directly to accelerate the vehicle speed.Type: GrantFiled: August 24, 2011Date of Patent: December 10, 2013Inventors: Ta-Yu Su, Kuo-Hsin Su
