  • Patent number: 9341241
    Abstract: A drive apparatus for a hybrid vehicle includes: an engine applying a drive force to drive wheels via a drive shaft; a motor applying a drive force to the drive wheels via a rotation shaft; a planetary gear mechanism having first, second, and third elements lining up sequentially with a gap interposed therebetween corresponding to a gear ratio; and an automatic transmission having input and output shafts rotatably connected to the drive wheels, and changing a gear ratio obtained by the division of the rotation speed of the input shaft by the rotation speed of the output shaft, wherein the input and drive shafts are connected to the second element, the output shaft and one end of the rotation shaft are connected to the first element, and the output shaft and the other end of the rotation shaft are connected to the third element.

  • Patent number: 8914209
    Abstract: An automatic shift apparatus including a rotation shaft, a dog clutch gear shift mechanism, and a control unit. The control unit supplies a predetermined electric current to a shaft moving apparatus to move a sleeve in an engaged state engaged with one of a first clutch ring and a second clutch ring and supplies a braking electric current smaller than the predetermined electric current to the shaft moving apparatus to exert a braking force on the sleeve, the braking force directed in the opposite direction relative to a direction of movement of the sleeve, before a spline of the sleeve disengages from a first dog clutch portion or a second dog clutch portion of the mentioned one of the first clutch ring and the second clutch ring.
