Distributed differential coupling combined power system

Abstract

A combined power system includes a rotational power source such as an internal combustion engine, the output shaft of which is arranged to drive a front section load and which is also coupled to the input shaft of an electromagnetic coupling device to drive a rear section load. The electromagnetic coupling device is controlled by an operating device to generate motor driving functions, when an input current is applied or to generate variable speed coupling functions through an output current when the electromagnetic coupling device is employed as a generator. The engine can be operated at constant speed or at a partially adjustable speed to maximize engine efficiency and reduce pollution, with one part of the differential speed output power generated throughout the differential mixing drive device being used for driving the load while the remainder of the power is converted through the generator function of the electromagnetic coupling device to charge the battery and thereby increase energy efficiency.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

In recent years, energy and noise pollution problems have become more and more serious. A good solution to these problems would be to use electrical power driven vehicles, but development of electrical power driven vehicles has up to now been limited by the capacity of the batteries to achieve a larger moving range. Increasing the battery volume or quantity to increase the range will correspondingly increase the self-weight of the carrier, resulting in higher electrical energy consumption and does not meet economic requirements. Therefore, in the absence of a major breakthrough in solving the battery technical problems, a more practical driving method is to use combined driving structure designs. Current combined driving structure designs include:

(A) Series Combined Power Design: This design is the most typical structure for an electrically driven vehicle. In this design a generator is driven by the engine to generate electricity and charge the battery, after which the battery provides electricity to the driven motor to drive the vehicle. As the energy is converted several times, the overall efficiency of this design is low. An example of this design is the GM HX3 vehicle of General Motors.

(B) Synchronized Power on Common Shaft Design: This design involves directly series combining the engine power output shaft and the rotating shaft of the driven motor, to thereby generate driving and speed controlling functions. An example of this design is West Germany's Volkswagen CHICO sedan.

For the case of the conventional engine and motor described in (B), only one of the engine and motor can be selected for output transmission, and the combination of their power output is not available.

In contrast, the disclosed distributed differential coupling combined power system of the invention permits the output power from the output shaft of an engine for other rotational power source) to not only drive a front section load, but also to be combined with an electromagnetic coupling device to drive a rear section load. The electromagnetic coupling device is constituted by an AC or DC, brushed or brushless electric machine, and is a two-end structure. It includes a rotational field generating structure and a rotor, and the rotor shaft for the field rotating shaft) is used as the output shaft to form an electromagnetic coupling device, while the other end is coupled with the engine output shaft through the transmission gear system. This design is capable of adding the power and speed of the engine output to the output generated by the electromagnetic coupling device itself to drive the rear load without being affected by the speed relationship between the two. In general, it has a smaller system volume and saves the cost and space in comparison with other combined power systems.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The distributed differential coupling combined power distribution system of the invention may be used in driving vehicles, ships, flying machines or other mechanical, industrial, or processing equipment which require a rotational power source. The power source involves the rotational output shaft of a internal combustion engine for other rotational power sources), and is not only used to drive a front section load directly or through transmission devices such as transmission gears, belts, chains, or the couplers, but is also coupled with the input shaft of an electromagnetic coupling device to drive the rear section load. The electromagnetic coupling is a two-end structure and is respectively combined with a stator and rotor structure to be controlled by an operating device for generating motor driving functions when an input current is applied to the electromagnetic coupling device or for operating variable speed coupling functions through the output current when employed as a generator, or for use in starting the engine and as a power regeneration brake, particularly when the engine is the main transmission power source, to charge the battery through the difference between the speed of the rotational field generated by the stator and the speed of the rotor, the speed difference with the rear load section being thereby adjusted by controlling the charging current. The engine can be at a constant speed or at a speed which is partially adjustable to maintain a working speed having a higher operating efficiency and lower pollution, with a portion of the differential speed output power generated through the electromagnetic coupling device being used for driving the load while the remaining part of the power is converted through the generator function of the electromagnetic coupling device to charge the battery. The electromagnetic coupling thereby promotes engine efficiency during variable speed driving at low driving speeds while acquiring charging power for the battery and reducing pollution, and in addition to providing a variable speed coupling, the electromagnetic coupling can also be used as a driving motor to generate a rotational output for driving the load independently of or together with the engine.

An electromagnetic coupling device connected by a direct transmission to another load, through a transmission component to another load, or through a differential gear system to a differentially acting load such as the side rear wheels of a vehicle.

More specifically, the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 1 includes the following elements:

A drive side rotational power unit P101 in the form of an internal combustion engine or other power source, wherein the rotational output shaft S102 coupled to a middle transmission device and a control interface M102 through a clutch CL102.

A clutch CL103 is installed between the middle input shaft S101 and the front section load to provide the transmission coupling or to cut off the transmission relationship between the middle transmission device and the front wheels, although the clutch CL103 can also be replaced by a neutral shift or co-installed with the neutral shift when the shift interface is in a neutral shift status. The middle shaft S101 is coupled at the output end of the clutch CL102 and is either directly rearwardly extended or connected through a transmission device to cause the rotational speed difference between the middle shaft S101 and the output presented to have a constant speed ratio or a non-constant speed ratio, in a manner similar to the rear extended rear wheel transmission shaft in a four wheel drive vehicle. A brake B101 controlled by the central controller CCU101 is further installed between the middle shaft S101 and the fixed casing;

For the case of AC power generation output functions, the electromagnetic coupling device M101 is employed as an electrical machine with AC power generating functions and made up of a permanent magnet or winding excited, variable frequency field type of electrical device, or a brushed alternator type of electrical device, armature winding being commonly installed with the conducting rings for AC output and with the commutators for DC input/output, as a result of which the AC output can be a variable frequency output or a constant frequency output depending on the engine constant speed control;
