Description

    BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • The invention relates to a transmission for a hybrid drive arrangement. Furthermore, the invention relates to a hybrid drive arrangement having a transmission, to a vehicle having a hybrid drive arrangement, and to a method for operating the hybrid drive arrangement, and to a computer program and a machine-readable storage medium.
  • Transmissions for hybrid drive arrangements are known from the prior art. For example, WO2010/009943 A1 discloses a double clutch transmission which makes the operation of a hybrid vehicle possible by way of internal combustion engine, by way of electric motor, and by way of the two drive units together. Transmissions of this type are complex, heavy and expensive. There is a requirement for transmission topologies with a reduced mechanical complexity, a decreased installation space requirement and a reduced weight.
  • In the following text, the term “coupled” or “attached” is used in the sense of a fixed connection. In contrast to this, the term “can be coupled” comprises both fixed and switchable connections within the context of the present description. If a switchable connection is specifically meant, the corresponding shifting element is as a rule specified explicitly, in particular a brake or a clutch. If, in contrast, a fixed, rigid or non-rotating connection is specifically meant, the term “coupled” or “attached” is as a rule used and the use of the term “can be coupled” is dispensed with. The use of the term “can be coupled” without specification of a specific shifting element therefore indicates the intentional inclusion of the two types. This distinction takes place solely for the benefit of improved comprehensibility and, in particular, in order to clarify where the provision of a switchable connection instead of a fixed connection or coupling which can as a rule be realized more easily is absolutely necessary. The above definition of the term “coupled” or “attached” is therefore in no way to be interpreted to be so narrow that couplings which are inserted arbitrarily for bypassing purposes are derived from its literal sense.
    • SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
  • A transmission for a hybrid drive arrangement is provided, which transmission can be coupled to two drive units, having an input shaft and an output shaft, at least a first, second, third and fourth shifting element and at least one first planetary transmission and one second planetary transmission, it being possible for the input shaft to be coupled by means of the first shifting element to the internal gear of the first planetary transmission, and the output shaft being coupled to the planetary carrier of the first planetary transmission, it being possible for the planetary carrier of the first planetary transmission to be coupled by means of the second shifting element to the internal gear of the second planetary transmission, and it being possible for the planetary carrier of the first planetary transmission to be coupled by means of the third shifting element to the sun gear of the second planetary transmission, it being possible for the sun gear of the first planetary transmission to be coupled by means of the fourth shifting element to the sun gear of the second planetary transmission.
  • A transmission for a hybrid drive arrangement is provided. For the operation of the hybrid drive arrangement, two drive units can be coupled to the transmission. The transmission comprises an input shaft and an output shaft, at least a first, second, third and fourth shifting element, and at least one first and one second planetary transmission. The output shaft is coupled to the planetary carrier of the first planetary transmission. Within the context of the description, a coupling is to be understood to mean a connection which is configured rigidly, for example in one piece, for example by means of a shaft, or with a fixed transmission or transmission stage. The input shaft can be coupled by means of the first shifting element to the internal gear of the first planetary transmission. The planetary carrier of the first planetary transmission can be coupled by means of the second shifting element to the internal gear of the second planetary transmission. Furthermore, the planetary carrier of the first planetary transmission can be coupled by means of the third shifting element to the sun gear of the second planetary transmission. The sun gear of the first planetary transmission can be coupled by means of the fourth shifting element to the sun gear of the second planetary transmission. In particular, the output shaft can be coupled to an output. An output is, in particular, at least one shaft or one axle which transmits the movement of the output shaft to the mechanical drive train of a vehicle, for example to a differential or to a drive wheel. A transmission is advantageously provided which transmits the rotational speed and the torque which prevails at the input shaft to the output shaft in accordance with the transmission ratios in the transmission in the case of a closed first, second, third and fourth shifting element. In the case of an open first shifting element, the input shaft is decoupled from the output shaft.
  • In another refinement of the invention, the transmission comprises a fifth shifting element which is set up to couple the internal gear of the first planetary transmission to a fixed point.
  • A fifth shifting element is provided for the transmission, which fifth shifting element makes releasing or fixed holding of the internal gear of the first planetary transmission possible, in particular connecting of the internal gear of the first planetary transmission or supporting of the internal gear of the first planetary transmission on a fixed point or a housing of the transmission. The fixed holding of the internal gear of the first planetary transmission comprises the fixed, rigid fixing of the stationary internal gear of the first planetary transmission. The releasing of the internal gear of the first planetary transmission comprises the releasing of the fixing, with the result that the internal gear of the first planetary transmission accelerates in accordance with the forces which act on the internal gear. In addition to those which are mentioned above, further operating modes can advantageously be set by way of the above-described topology of the transmission with the first to fifth shifting elements. A closed fifth shifting element thus results in blocking of the input shaft if the first shifting element is closed at the same time.
  • In another refinement of the invention, the transmission comprises a sixth shifting element which is configured to couple the internal gear of the second planetary transmission to a fixed point.
  • A sixth shifting element is provided for the transmission, which sixth shifting element makes releasing or fixing of the internal gear of the second planetary transmission possible, in particular connecting of the internal gear of the second planetary transmission or supporting of the internal gear of the second planetary transmission on a fixed point or on a housing of the transmission. The fixing of the internal gear of the second planetary transmission comprises the fixed, rigid fixing of the stationary internal gear of the second planetary transmission. The releasing of the internal gear of the second planetary transmission comprises the releasing of the fixing, with the result that the internal gear of the second planetary transmission accelerates in accordance with the forces which act on the internal gear. In addition to the abovementioned operating modes, further operating modes can advantageously be set by way of the above-described topology of the transmission with the first to sixth shifting elements. The internal gear of the second planetary carrier thus blocks in the case of a closed sixth shifting element.
  • In another refinement of the invention, the transmission comprises a seventh shifting element which is set up to couple the input shaft to the planetary carrier of the second planetary transmission.
  • A seventh shifting element is provided for the transmission, which seventh shifting element makes releasing or coupling of the input shaft to the planetary carrier of the second planetary transmission possible. The coupling of the input shaft to the planetary carrier of the second planetary transmission comprises the fixed, rigid connection of the input shaft to the planetary carrier of the second planetary transmission so as to rotate with it. The releasing of the input shaft from the planetary carrier of the second planetary transmission comprises the releasing of the connection, with the result that the input shaft or the planetary carrier of the second planetary transmission accelerate in accordance with the forces which act on the input shaft or the planetary carrier of the second planetary transmission. In addition to those mentioned above, further operating modes can advantageously be set by way of the above-described topology of the transmission with the first to seventh shifting elements. Five different transmission ratios between the input shaft and the output shaft thus result depending on the combination of the closing and opening of the shifting elements. In another refinement of the invention, the first, second, fifth and/or the sixth shifting element comprise/comprises a claw coupling.
  • The first, second, fifth and/or the sixth shifting element are/is configured as a claw coupling.
  • The first and fifth or the second and sixth shifting element are either open or are closed in an alternating manner, that is to say are never closed at the same time. Therefore, said in each case two shifting elements can advantageously be actuated in each case by means of an actuator and a selector fork or selector rocker. To this end, the actuator actuates, in particular, three positions: first-mentioned shifting element closed; both shifting elements open; last-mentioned shifting element closed. A possibility for controllably coupling the components of the transmission is advantageously provided.
  • In a further refinement of the invention, the third, fourth, and/or the seventh shifting element comprise/comprises a clutch, in particular a slipping clutch.
  • In order to connect individual components of the transmission, the third, fourth and/or the seventh shifting element are/is configured as a clutch. A clutch of this type can be, in particular, a dry clutch, a wet clutch, a slipping clutch or a claw coupling. Possibilities for a controllable connection of the components of the transmission are advantageously provided.
  • In another refinement of the invention, a first drive unit, in particular an internal combustion engine, can be coupled to the input shaft, and/or a second drive unit, in particular an electric machine, can be coupled to the planetary carrier of the second planetary transmission.
  • The first drive unit can be attached on the input shaft on the input side. The second drive unit can be coupled to the planetary carrier of the second planetary transmission. For generator operation of the second drive unit, for example an electric machine, for example in order to charge a battery, the first drive unit or the internal combustion engine can advantageously be connected to the electric machine by means of closing of the seventh shifting element and opening of the other shifting elements. Since the two drive units are decoupled here from the output shaft and therefore no torque is transmitted to the output shaft, said charging can take place in the case of an output shaft which is at a standstill, for example, that is to say, for example, during the standstill of a vehicle (standstill charging). In the case of an output shaft which is, for example, at a standstill, a direct transmission of the rotational energy of the first drive unit to the second drive unit or vice versa is made possible, for example in order to start an internal combustion engine.
  • Power-split operation of the transmission (eCVT mode) is made possible by way of closing of the first, fourth and sixth shifting element and opening of the second, third, fifth and seventh shifting element. Here, the first drive unit acts on the first internal gear of the first internal planetary transmission, and the electric machine acts on the planetary carrier of the second planetary transmission. Here, the transmission ratio between the input shaft and the output shaft can be varied continuously over a wide range by means of specification of a rotational speed or a torque of the second drive unit. Power-split operation (also called eCVT1 mode) is advantageously made possible, in the case of which both the propulsion power at the output shaft and the charging power for the generator operation of the electric machine can be set independently of one another. Charging at a standstill or in crawling mode (≥0 km/h to approximately 10 km/h) and a smooth comfortable transition from the standstill charging mode into the crawling charging mode and the driving mode is advantageously made possible with a fixed transmission, that is to say in a fixed gear.
  • In the case of an open first and seventh shifting element, the second drive unit is connected in each case via one of the four possible fixed transmission ratios to the output shaft, with the result that driving of the output shaft takes place only by means of the second drive unit with one of the four fixed transmission ratios. By means of (in particular, metered) closing of the seventh shifting element, the first drive unit can be driven and, for example, can be started if the first drive unit is an internal combustion engine while driving by means of the second drive unit.
  • There is also the possibility that the first drive unit is configured, for example, as an electric machine, and the second drive unit is configured, for example, as an internal combustion engine. In a configuration of this type, different functionalities and operating modes for the interaction of the components can result by means of the transmission, which are not described further here.
  • In another refinement of the invention, the transmission ratios of the transmission are changed without the traction force being interrupted.
  • Changing of the transmission ratios of the transmission, in particular shifting into another gear or into another operating mode of the transmission, takes place without the traction force being interrupted if, in particular, for the change from one operating mode of the transmission into another, one of the shifting elements retains its state, a second one of the shifting elements is transferred from a closed state into an open state, and a third one of the shifting elements is transferred from an open state into a closed state. A transmission is advantageously provided, in the case of which changing of the gear stages without an interruption of the traction force is made possible.
  • In another refinement of the invention, the transmission comprises an actuator for actuating at least one of the shifting elements in a manner which is dependent on a predefined operating specification signal.
  • An actuator is provided which actuates at least one of the shifting elements in a manner which is dependent on a predefined operating specification signal, for example a requested torque, a predefined rotational speed, or a defined operating point of the drive unit. Said parameters of the operating specification signal can be related to the output shaft of the transmission, to the input shaft, or to the shafts which are to be connected to the drive units. Control of the transmission is advantageously made possible.

  • A hybrid drive arrangement having an above-described transmission is provided. The hybrid drive arrangement comprises a second drive assembly. In particular, the hybrid drive arrangement comprises a pulse inverter, an electric energy source and/or a first drive unit. The second drive unit is coupled or connected, in particular, to the planetary carrier of the second planetary transmission. The pulse inverter is provided, in particular, for supplying the second drive unit, in particular an electric machine. To this end, in particular, it converts the electric energy of an electric energy source, for example a battery and/or a fuel cell. The first drive unit is coupled or connected, in particular, to the input shaft. A hybrid drive arrangement which is set up for use in a vehicle is advantageously provided.
  • Furthermore, the invention comprises a vehicle having a described hybrid drive arrangement. A vehicle which comprises a hybrid drive arrangement is advantageously provided.
  • Furthermore, the invention comprises a method for operating a hybrid drive arrangement having a transmission. The method comprises the following steps:

    •  DETAILED DESCRIPTION
  • FIG. 1 shows a hybrid drive train arrangement 200 having a first drive unit 7, in particular an internal combustion engine, and a second drive unit 8, in particular an electric machine, and a transmission 100. In particular, the hybrid drive train arrangement comprises a pulse inverter 60 for supplying the second drive unit 8 with electric energy. Furthermore, the hybrid drive train arrangement 200 comprises, in particular, an electric energy source 70 which is connected to the pulse inverter 60. The transmission 100 comprises the input shaft 10 and the output shaft 11. Furthermore, the transmission 100 comprises a first planetary transmission 5 and a second planetary transmission 6. Furthermore, the transmission 100 comprises seven shifting elements SE1 . . . SE7. The first shifting element SE1, in particular a claw coupling, is set up to connect or to disconnect the input shaft 10 to/from the internal gear of the first planetary transmission 5. The second shifting element SE2, in particular a claw coupling, is set up to connect or to disconnect the planetary carrier of the first planetary transmission 5 to/from the internal gear of the second planetary transmission 6. The third shifting element SE3, in particular a clutch, is set up to connect or to disconnect the planetary carrier of the first planetary transmission 5 to/from the sun gear of the second planetary transmission 6. The fourth shifting element SE4, in particular a clutch, is set up to connect or to disconnect the sun gear of the first planetary transmission 5 to/from the sun gear of the second planetary transmission 6. The fifth shifting element SE5, in particular a claw coupling, is set up to connect or to disconnect the internal gear of the first planetary transmission 5 to/from a fixed point. The sixth shifting element SE6, in particular a claw coupling, is set up to connect or to disconnect the internal gear of the second planetary transmission 6 to/from a fixed point. Furthermore, the transmission 100 can have a seventh shifting element SE7. The seventh shifting element SE7, in particular a clutch, is set up to connect or to disconnect the input shaft 10 to/from the planetary carrier of the second planetary transmission 6. Furthermore, the transmission is set up to be coupled or connected to a first drive unit 7 via the input shaft 10 for operation. To this end, FIG. 1 shows that the shaft of the drive unit 7 is connected to the input shaft 10, in particular via a first spur gear set. The second drive unit 8, in particular an electric machine, is connected to the planetary carrier of the second planetary transmission 6, in particular via a second spur gear set 12, for the operation of the transmission 100, as shown in FIG. 1. Therefore, the seventh shifting element SE7 is set up to connect or to disconnect the first drive unit 7 which is connected to the input shaft 10 to/from the planetary carrier of the second planetary transmission 6 and to/from the second drive unit 8. For an optimization of the transmission ratios, the output shaft 11 is connected, for example, to a differential 14, for example via an output 12, in particular a spur gear set, via which differential 14 the movements are transmitted to the wheels 310. An actuator 50 is provided for actuating the shifting elements, which actuator 50 carries out the method for operating the hybrid drive arrangement having the transmission. The control lines between the actuator 50 and the individual shifting elements SE1 . . . SE7 are indicated merely as an arrow for reasons of clarity and are not shown completely. The communication between the shifting elements SE1 . . . SE7 and the apparatus can take place by means of the control lines and also by means of a bus system or in a wireless manner.
  • FIG. 2 shows a shifting matrix of the transmission. The individual shifting elements SE1 . . . SE7 are indicated in the columns, and an approximate transmission ratio which results between one of the drive units and the output shaft is shown in the last column by way of example. The different gear stages, gears or operating modes of the transmission are indicated in the rows. Crosses in the shifting matrix show which of the shifting elements have to be activated, in order that the corresponding gear or operating mode is set. Here, activation of the shifting elements means, in particular, that a clutch is closed or a brake is actuated, with the result that a force is transmitted via the clutch from one shaft to a further shaft or a force is transmitted by means of the brake to a fixed point, in particular the transmission housing. It can be seen from the shifting matrix that, depending on the combination of the four shifting elements, five gears G1 . . . G5 can be set, the first gear G1 having the highest transmission ratio and the fifth gear G5 having the lowest transmission ratio. In the case of the gears G1 . . . G5, a fixed rotational speed ratio in accordance with the transmission ratio indicated in the last column preferably prevails in each case between the first drive unit 7 and the output shaft 11. In the gears G1 . . . G5, the output shaft is driven either by the first drive unit 7 alone or together with the second drive unit 8. In particular, these are internal combustion engine or hybrid gears, for example if the first drive unit 7 is an internal combustion engine and the second drive unit 8 is an electric machine. Said gears also make it possible to raise the load point of the internal combustion engine, with the result that the electric machine can be operated as a generator, and charging of a battery can take place during operation, in particular driving operation of a vehicle. The gears E1 to E4 or operating modes, in which only the second drive unit 8 is connected to the output shaft 11, are also shown in the following lines of the matrix. To this end, in particular, the seventh shifting element SE7 has to be open, in order that there is no connection to the first drive unit 7. This results, in particular, in the electric motor gears, for example if the second drive unit is an electric machine. A vehicle can advantageously be operated locally without emissions in said gears. The transmission ratios which are indicated in the shifting matrix result by way of example between the second drive unit 8 and the output shaft 11.
  • Closing of the first, fourth and sixth shifting element SE1, SE4, SE6 and opening of the remaining shifting elements SE2, SE3, SE5, SE7 result in power-split operation, the eCVT1 mode which makes a mutually independent propulsion power at the output shaft 11 and charging power of the second drive unit 8 possible. In particular, said operating mode is suitable for hybrid driving off in the case of a low battery charging state, since stepless changing of the transmission ratios and therefore, in particular, stepless acceleration are possible in the case of a simultaneous generator operation of the second drive unit 8.
  • A further mode CH1 (also called standstill charging) results if only the seventh shifting element SE7 is closed and the remaining shifting elements SE1 . . . SE6 are open. Here, the drive units 7 and 8 are coupled to one another, there not being a connection to the output shaft 11. In said operating mode, the second drive unit 8 can be driven by means of the first drive unit 7 during the standstill of the output shaft, in particular of a vehicle, in particular can be used in the manner of a generator for charging an electric energy source 70, in particular a battery. As an alternative, the first drive unit 7 can also be driven by means of the second drive unit 8, and, for example, an internal combustion engine start or a diagnosis of the internal combustion engine can be carried out if the first drive unit 7 is an internal combustion engine and the second drive unit 8 is an electric machine.
  • FIG. 3 shows a vehicle 300 with wheels 310, the vehicle comprising a hybrid drive arrangement 200, as described above.
  • FIG. 4 shows a flow chart of a method 400 for operating a hybrid drive arrangement 200 having a transmission 100. The method starts with step 405. In step 410, an operating specification signal BV is determined and, in step 420, at least one of the shifting elements SE1 . . . SE7 is actuated in order to set the functionality of the transmission 100 in a manner which is dependent on the operating specification signal BV. The method ends with step 425. Here, the operating specification signal BV is either a parameter for a physical variable in the transmission 100, such as a torque or a rotational speed or a power output to be transmitted which is to prevail at or to be transmitted to a component of the transmission 100. Said components are, in particular, the input shaft 10, the output shaft 11, but also the parameters at the drive units 7, 8 or the shifting elements SE1 . . . SE7. Moreover, the operating specification signal BV can also represent a defined operating mode such as one of the five gears G1 . . . G5 or the four gears E1 . . . E4 which are operated only by way of the second drive unit, or else can represent the special functions eCVT1 or standstill charging CH1. In a manner which is dependent on said operating specification signal BV, the shifting elements SE1 . . . SE7 are actuated in accordance with the shifting matrix, in order to shift the transmission 100 into the corresponding gear or operating mode. For a shift between the individual gears or operating modes with no interruption of the tractive force, it is necessary that one of the shifting elements SE1 . . . SE7 retains its state before and after the shifting operation, a further shifting element moving during the shifting from the open into the closed state, whereas another shifting element moves from the closed into the open state.
