  • Publication number: 20230417321
    Abstract: A vehicle shifting mechanism includes a gearbox, a shift drive unit and a gearshift lever. Through electrical connection between a control switch and the shift drive unit, the operation of controlling the forward or reverse gear is carried out, so that the shift drive unit drives the gearshift lever to produce the action of pushing down the gear or pushing up the gear. Through an automatic shift switch and in cooperation with a main driving control processor, when the automatic shift switch is turned into automatic shift mode, the main driving control processor receives the data of the main power motor or the engine speed and torque load of the vehicle to activate the shift drive unit to drive the gearshift lever to generate a fully automatic downshifting gear or an upshifting gear and a neutral gear control.

  • Patent number: 8602145
    Abstract: 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.
