By the way, in the above-mentioned prior art, the driving force of the internal combustion engine is changed by changing the load of the generator connected to the planetary gear mechanism (that is, the power generated by the generator). In addition to controlling the distribution ratio distributed to the driving wheels, the transmission gear ratio of the driving force transmitted from the internal combustion engine to the driving wheels is controlled. However, in order to sufficiently secure the width of the gear ratio, a large generator capable of absorbing a large load is required, which not only increases the cost and weight but also lowers the efficiency of the generator in a practical range. There's a problem.

According to the second aspect of the present invention,
If the first and second brakes and the lock-up clutch are disengaged, the driving force of the internal combustion engine can be distributed to the driving wheels and the generator at an arbitrary speed ratio by adjusting the load of the generator. If only the lock-up clutch is engaged, the internal combustion engine can be directly connected to the output shaft to drive the drive wheels at a gear ratio of 1. If only the second brake is engaged, a Dover drive state with a gear ratio of less than 1 is realized. be able to. If only the first brake is engaged and the generator is rotated in the reverse direction, the gear ratio can be further reduced as compared with the case where only the second brake is engaged. If the internal combustion engine is stopped and the generator is rotated in the reverse direction, the drive wheels can be rotated in the reverse direction to establish the reverse gear.
