Definitions

  • This disclosure relates to an electric oil pump for discharging oil.
  • an electric oil pump has been used for controlling a hydraulically driven device driven according to oil pressure or for supplying lubricant oil to lubricate a mechanical device, etc.
  • an auxiliary pump (electric) is used as an oil pressure source for use in an idling stop and an EV run.
  • it is conceivable to configure a single electric oil pump to provide supplying of lubricant oil even if oil pressure supply is needed for a plurality of portions e.g. Patent Document 1: JPH07-243385).
  • variable displacement type pump disclosed in Patent Document 1
  • oil discharged from its discharge-side opening is circulated temporarily to a pump discharge-side pressure chamber formed outside a pump body.
  • the downstream side of this pump discharge-side pressure chamber is communicated to a pump discharge-side passage provided in the pump body. Therefore, oil discharged from the discharge-side opening of the variable displacement pump is temporarily circulated to the outside from the pump body and then returned to the pump body. Further, the oil returned to the pump discharge-side passage is distributed to a passage for supplying to a power steering device through a metering orifice and a passage for supplying to a tank through a spool-type switching valve.
  • the pump comprises:
  • a pump body having:
  • FIG. 1A is a view schematically showing a configuration of a hydraulic system having an electric oil pump
  • FIG. 1B is a view schematically showing a power source for EV run
  • FIG. 2 is a view schematically showing the electric oil pump
  • FIG. 3 is a view schematically showing a second check valve relating to a further embodiment
  • FIG. 4 is a view schematically showing a second check valve relating to a further embodiment.
  • FIG. 1A is a view schematically showing a configuration of a hydraulic system 100 incorporating the electric oil pump 1 provided in a vehicle.
  • FIG. 1B is a view schematically showing a drive motor M as a power source for EV run.
  • the hydraulic system 100 includes the electric oil pump 1 , an engine 2 , a gear unit 3 , a mechanical oil pump 4 , an oil pan 5 , a forward traveling clutch 6 , a hydraulic circuit 8 , and a check valve 9 .
  • the engine 2 constitutes a power source of the vehicle and outputs a rotational power with combustion of a fuel such as gasoline.
  • the rotational power of the engine 2 is transmitted to an automatic speed changer A.
  • the drive motor M is a power source for EV run and outputs a rotational power with electric power stored in e.g. a battery.
  • the rotational power of the drive motor M is transmitted to wheels 7 .
  • the gear unit 3 has multiple gear positions providing different gear ratios and is configured such that the gear position is automatically changed according to a traveling state (e.g. according to a traveling speed of the vehicle or an amount of stepping on an accelerator, etc.).
  • the rotational power of the engine 2 is transmitted to a gear position via a torque converter and the forward traveling clutch 6 and the gear position is changed as well.
  • the output from the gear unit 3 is transmitted via an output shaft 3 A to some of the wheels 7 which are mounted on the front portion of the vehicle.

Therefore, the supply of oil to the gear unit 3 and the forward traveling clutch 6 will be stopped also. As a result, with stop of supply of oil pressure to the forward clutch 6 , the forward traveling clutch 6 will be rendered into a completely disengaged state. When traveling of the vehicle is to be resumed under this condition, the engine 2 will restart its operation, thereby to rotate the oil pump 4 , in which case an oil pressure needs to be fed to the forward traveling clutch 6 .
