  • This application is the national phase entry of International Application No. PCT/CN2019/112636, filed on Oct. 23, 2019, which is based upon and claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201910949522.9, filed on Oct. 8, 2019, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
  • TECHNICAL FIELD
  • The present invention relates to a transmission device and a control method thereof, and in particular, to a hydro-mechanical hybrid transmission device with multiple power distribution modes and a control method thereof.
  • BACKGROUND
  • The transmission device is required to provide a transmission ratio to achieve high torque and low speed when the engineering equipment is started or moves, and is required to provide a transmission ratio to achieve low torque and high speed during transfer of the engineering equipment. Therefore, due to the complex working conditions, the transmission device of the engineering equipment receives higher requirements and has a more complicated structure than the transmission device of an ordinary vehicle; and the transmission device of the engineering equipment has higher requirements on both the transmission ratio and the torque.
  • The transmission device has a great influence on fuel economy of the engineering equipment, and improves fuel economy by controlling the engine to run in economical working conditions as much as possible. However, the transmission device in the conventional engineering machinery consists of a hydraulic torque converter and a gearbox, commonly known as a torque converter-gearbox system; the hydraulic torque converter is used for forming a non-rigid connection between the engine and the gearbox, and transmitting the speed and torque of the engine to the gearbox; and finally, the transmission ratio of the engineering equipment is changed through shift of the gearbox, which belongs to the conventional mechanical transmission mode and cannot meet the requirements on the transmission ratio in complex working conditions.
  • At present, the engineering equipment adopts a hydraulic transmission system where an engine drives a hydraulic pump to enable a hydraulic motor to achieve the travelling function. However, the transmission medium of such a hydraulic transmission system is hydraulic oil, and high-pressure oil is produced during the transmission process, which raises high requirements on the sealing performance between the components. The higher requirements on the pressure-resistant performance of the hydraulic components lead to a higher cost of the components; and the transmission efficiency is not high as compared with the mechanical transmission system.
