At present, with the development of new energy vehicle industry, electric vehicles have become a development trend. Under the trend of increasing sales of electric vehicles, the development of light weight of the electric vehicles is imperative.
In order to ensure the endurance mileage of an electric vehicle, a large battery is generally provided in the electric vehicle to meet the endurance requirement. As such, there is an increasing demand for weight reduction of other components in the electric vehicle.
At present, the transmission of the electric vehicle adopts a parallel shaft type layout, and meanwhile, the traditional bevel gear differential is used for power output. However, this transmission has a problem of heavy weight.
In view of this, the present invention proposes a planetary transmission.

The power of the motor 10 is transmitted to the first planetary row 100 through the first sun gear 110, in an embodiment, the motor 10 and the first sun gear 110 are connected by a spline of the rotor shaft 11 of the motor 10, but the rotor shaft 11 of the motor 10 may also be connected by a spline of a high-speed shaft, and the high-speed shaft is further connected by a spline of the first sun gear 110, so as to transmit the power of the motor 10 to the first sun gear 110 and further to the first planetary row 100. In addition, the motor 10 may be integrated with the first planetary gear set 100, and the rotor shaft 11 may be spline-connected to a rotor of the motor 10. The first ring gear 130 is in transmission connection with the second sun gear 210, so that the power of the motor 10 is transmitted to the second sun gear 210 through the first ring gear 130 and then to the second planet row 200. The half shafts are used for transmitting power between the planetary transmission and the driving wheels. The left half shaft 20 serves to transmit power of the motor 10 to a left wheel of the vehicle, and the right half shaft 30 serves to transmit power of the motor 10 to a right wheel of the vehicle. That is, the left half shaft 20 and the right half shaft 30 are power output shafts of the planetary gear transmission. The left half shaft 20 is connected to the first carrier 140 of the first planetary gear set 100, the right half shaft 30 is connected to the second ring gear 230 of the second planetary gear set 200, and the power of the motor 10 is transmitted to the left half shaft 20 through the first planetary gear set 100 and transmitted to the right half shaft 30 through the first planetary gear set 100 and the second planetary gear set 200, thereby realizing the driving of the vehicle wheels.
So, through set up the first planet row 100 and the second planet row 200 that are connected in the planet row formula derailleur, can realize the function of variable speed, differential simultaneously, on the one hand, compare in the derailleur structure that adopts parallel axis plus bevel gear among the prior art, reduced the required part quantity of derailleur to make the whole weight reduction of planet row formula derailleur, make the quality of planet row formula derailleur lighter, and then be favorable to the lightweight of vehicle. On the other hand, compared with a transmission structure with a parallel shaft and a bevel gear in the prior art, the overall size of the planetary row type transmission is reduced, the occupied space of the planetary row type transmission is reduced, and the structure of the planetary row type transmission is more compact.
One aspect of the present invention is to connect the first planetary row 100 and the second planetary row 200 by providing the first planetary row 100 and the second planetary row 200 in the planetary gear transmission and connecting the first ring gear 130 with the second sun gear 210.

Specifically, the axial direction of the planetary gear set, i.e., the axial direction of the left half shaft 20 and the right half shaft 30, and the radial direction of the planetary gear set is a direction perpendicular to the axial direction. The components of the first planetary row 100 are distributed in the radial direction of the planetary transmission, the components of the second planetary row 200 are distributed in the radial direction of the planetary transmission, and the first planetary row 100 and the second planetary row 200 are distributed in the radial direction of the planetary transmission. Meanwhile, the first gear ring 130 and the second sun gear 210 are integrated into a whole, that is, the first gear ring 130 and the second sun gear 210 are shared gears, so that the number of parts is further saved, the overall quality of the planetary gear-type transmission is reduced, and the lightweight of the planetary gear-type transmission is facilitated. The radial distribution of the first planetary row 100 and the second planetary row 200 also saves the axial length of the planetary transmission, so that the planetary transmission can be arranged in a cabin with smaller axial space, thereby expanding the application range of the planetary transmission.
Further, the first planetary row 100 includes a first sun gear 110, a first planet gear 120, a first ring gear 130, and a first carrier 140, the first sun gear 110 is engaged with the first planet gear 120, the first planet gear 120 is engaged with the first ring gear 130, and the first planet gear 120 is mounted on the first carrier 140. Specifically, the first sun gear 110 is located at the center of the first planetary row 100, the first planetary gears 120 are engaged with the outer ring of the first sun gear 110, and the first planetary gears 120 may be provided in multiple groups in the circumferential direction of the first sun gear 110, where the number of the groups of the first planetary gears 120 is not limited. The first planet gear 120 is fixed to a first planet carrier 140, and the first planet carrier 140 provides fixed support for the first planet gear 120. Meanwhile, the first planet gear 120 is also meshed with the inner ring of the first ring gear 130, that is, the first planet gear 120, the adjacent first sun gear 110 and the adjacent first ring gear 130 are in a constantly meshed state, so that transmission among the first planet gear 120, the adjacent first sun gear 110 and the adjacent first ring gear 130 is realized.
Further, the second planet row 200 comprises a second sun gear 210, a second planet gear 220, a second ring gear 230 and a second planet carrier 240, the second sun gear 210 is engaged with the second planet gear 220, the second planet gear 220 is engaged with the second ring gear 230, and the second planet gear 220 is mounted on the second planet carrier 240. Specifically, the second sun gear 210 is located at the center of the second planet row 200, the second planet gears 220 are meshed with the outer ring of the second sun gear 210, and in the circumferential direction of the second sun gear 210, a plurality of groups of the second planet gears 220 may be provided, where the number of the groups of the second planet gears 220 is not limited. The second planet gears 220 are fixed to a second planet carrier 240, and the second planet carrier 240 provides fixed support for the second planet gears 220. Meanwhile, the second planet gear 220 is also meshed with an inner ring of the second ring gear 230, that is, the second planet gear 220 and the adjacent second sun gear 210 and second ring gear 230 are in a constant meshed state, so that transmission among the three is realized.
Further, the first planetary row 100 further includes a first planetary wheel shaft fixed to the first carrier 140, and the first planetary wheel 120 is mounted to the first carrier 140 through the first planetary wheel shaft; the second planetary row 200 further comprises a second planetary gear shaft fixed to the second planet carrier 240, and the second planetary gear 220 is mounted to the second planet carrier 240 through the second planetary gear shaft. Specifically, a first planetary gear shaft is fixed to the first carrier 140, and the first planetary gear 120 is mounted on the first carrier 140 via the first planetary gear shaft. The first planetary gears 120 may be provided in a plurality along the circumferential direction of the first sun gear 110, and the number of the first planetary gear shafts is consistent with that of the first planetary gears 120, so that each first planetary gear 120 is mounted to the first carrier 140 through its corresponding first planetary gear shaft, thereby achieving connection between the first planetary gears 120 and the first carrier 140. A second planetary gear shaft is fixed to the second planetary gear carrier 240, and the second planetary gear 220 is mounted on the second planetary gear carrier 240 through the second planetary gear shaft. The second planet gears 220 may be provided in plurality along the circumferential direction of the second sun gear 210, and the number of the second planet gear shafts is consistent with that of the second planet gears 220, so that each second planet gear 220 is mounted on the second planet carrier 240 through the corresponding second planet gear shaft, thereby realizing the connection between the second planet gear 220 and the second planet carrier 240.
Further, the second carrier 240 is fixed relative to the stationary portion of the planetary transmission. Specifically, the second carrier 240 is fixed relative to the stationary portion of the planetary gear set transmission, thereby restricting rotation of the second carrier 240 such that the second carrier 240 becomes a stationary member. Meanwhile, the second planet carrier 240 is fixed to provide positioning and supporting for the planetary gear set type transmission, and compared with the problem that the structural strength of a planetary gear set in the prior art is insufficient, the structural strength of the planetary gear set type transmission is improved.
Further, the second carrier 240 is splined to the housing of the planetary transmission. Specifically, in an embodiment, the second carrier 240 is splined to the casing of the planetary transmission, so that the connection stability and the firmness between the second carrier 240 and the casing of the planetary transmission are ensured. Of course, the second planet carrier 240 and the housing of the planetary gear set transmission may be connected by rectangular teeth or the like. Of course, the stationary part of the planetary transmission may also be a stationary part such as a motor stator and a brake hub.
Further, the rotor shaft 11 of the motor 10 is a hollow shaft, the rotor shaft 11 is connected to the first sun gear 110, and the left axle shaft 20 passes through the rotor shaft 11. Specifically, the rotor shaft 11 of the motor 10 is a hollow shaft, and the left half shaft 20 passes through the middle hollow of the rotor shaft 11 and is freely rotatable with respect to the rotor shaft 11, thereby transmitting power to the left wheel. Therefore, the overall structure of the planetary transmission is more compact.
The electric machine 10 is a power source of the planetary transmission and is used for providing power to the planetary transmission. More specifically, the electric machine 10 includes a stator and a rotor that outputs torque to the planetary transmission via a rotor shaft 11. The torque of the motor 10 is transmitted to the second planetary row 200 through the first planetary row 100, and the first planetary row 100 and the second planetary row 200 rotate under the action of the torque of the motor 10, so as to drive the left half shaft 20 and the right half shaft 30 to rotate, thereby driving the left wheel and the right wheel of the vehicle. In this way, the first planetary row 100 and the second planetary row 200 realize speed reduction and differential speed so as to meet the requirement of the rotating speed at the wheel end of the vehicle.
In one embodiment, the first planetary row 100 and the second planetary row 200 are arranged along an axial direction of the planetary transmission. At this time, the torque transmission path of the left half shaft 20 is: electric machine 10-first sun gear 110-first planet gear 120-first planet carrier 140-left axle shaft 20; the torque transfer path for the right half-shaft 30 is: the electric machine 10-the first sun gear 110-the first planet gear 120-the first ring gear 130-the second sun gear 210-the second planet gear 220-the second ring gear 230-the right half shaft 30.
When the vehicle is running straight, the left and right wheels need to have the same rotational speed and torque. By adjusting the tooth ratio of the first planetary row 100 and the second planetary row 200, the rotation speed of the first planet carrier 140 is made to be the same as the rotation speed of the second ring gear 230, so that the rotation speed and the torque output by the left half shaft 20 and the right half shaft 30 are made to be the same.
When the vehicle left output speed is high, the left wheel speed and torque are higher than the right wheel speed and torque. When the vehicle turns right, the rotation speed of the left wheel is higher than that of the right wheel, so that a larger rotation speed is transmitted to the first planet carrier 140, and a smaller rotation speed is transmitted to the second ring gear 230, at this time, the gear ratio of the first planet row 100 and the second planet row 200 is used for enabling the speed value of the first planet carrier 140 to be increased to be equal to the speed value of the second ring gear 230 to be decreased, so that the left half shaft 20 outputs a higher rotation speed and a larger torque, and the right half shaft 30 outputs a lower rotation speed and a smaller torque.
When the vehicle right output speed is high, the right wheel speed and torque are higher than the left wheel speed and torque. When the vehicle turns left, the rotation speed of the right wheel is higher than that of the left wheel, so that a smaller rotation speed is transmitted to the first planet carrier 140, and a larger rotation speed is transmitted to the second ring gear 230, at this time, the gear ratio of the first planet row 100 and the second planet row 200 is used for enabling the speed value of the first planet carrier 140 descending to be equal to the speed value of the second ring gear 230 ascending, so that the left half shaft 20 outputs a lower rotation speed and a smaller torque, and the right half shaft 30 outputs a higher rotation speed and a larger torque.
In another embodiment, the first planetary row 100 and the second planetary row 200 are arranged in a radial direction of the planetary transmission, and the first ring gear 130 and the second sun gear 210 are integrated into a unitary structure. At this time, the torque transmission path of the left half shaft 20 is: electric machine 10-first sun gear 110-first planet gear 120-first planet carrier 140-left axle shaft 20; the torque transfer path for the right half-shaft 30 is: the electric machine 10-the first sun gear 110-the first planet gears 120-the first ring gear 130 (the second sun gear 210) -the second planet gears 220-the second ring gear 230-the right half shaft 30. The specific differential principle is the same as that described above, and is not described in detail herein.
The invention further provides a vehicle, which comprises the planetary transmission, the specific structure of the planetary transmission refers to the embodiments, and the vehicle adopts all technical schemes of all the embodiments, so that the vehicle at least has all the beneficial effects brought by the technical schemes of the embodiments, and the details are not repeated.
Therefore, the planetary transmission has the speed change function realized through the first planetary row 100 and the differential function realized through the second planetary row 200, so that the volume and the mass of transmission components are reduced, and the power density of the planetary transmission is greatly improved. Through the setting of first planet row 100 and second planet row 200, can realize that the speed ratio scope is wider, and the motor 10 rotational speed scope that makes planet row formula derailleur can bear is bigger to satisfy different design demands, and then enlarge the application scope of vehicle. Meanwhile, the axial structure of the planet row type transmission is more compact, the whole mass of the planet row type transmission is lighter, and light weight of a vehicle is facilitated.
