Definitions
- the present invention relates to an electrically propelled vehicle and to a propulsion apparatus for a vehicle, in accordance with the preamble of Claim 1.
- Electric motor vehicles are more acceptable from both an environmental and an economic point of view.
- hybrid motor vehicles namely motor vehicles with a hybrid propulsion system
- motor vehicles with a hybrid propulsion system have been favoured by the motor car industry and users.
- a so-called drive motor consisting of a conventional direct-current electric motor, for actuating the driving wheels of the motor vehicle;
- a permanent-magnet current motor mechanically connected rotationally to the internal-combustion engine; - control means which are able to detect the charged state of the storage battery.
- the internal-combustion engine is switched off and disengaged from the driving wheels and the movement of the vehicle is ensured by the electric motor powered by the said storage battery.
- control means When the control means detect that the voltage at the terminals of the storage battery is below a predefined voltage level, they deviate the current to the generator which thus, being mechanically connected rotationally to the permanent-magnet motor, acts as a starter motor for the latter .
- the latter causes rotation of the permanent-magnet motor so that the latter acts as a generator of an electric current which powers the electric motor so as to ensure the movement of the motor vehicle.
- Any surplus current generated by the permanent-magnet motor with respect to the actual consumption of the electric motor is used for the operation of recharging the storage battery.
- control means automatically switch off the internal- combustion engine and the motor vehicle starts to function again normally powered by the storage battery, as described above .
- this known propulsion system has the undoubted disadvantage consisting in the fact that the internal-combustion engine is mechanically connected to the driving wheels. This involves the need to design chassis which are able to house the transmission means, resulting in less efficient use of the passenger space or less comfort for the occupants of the motor vehicle.
- a further disadvantage and undesirable aspect of such a propulsion system is that it has excessively large dimensions and is bulky since the motor vehicle must be equipped with two propulsion units and their respective transmissions.
- the entire propulsion system in order to provide the driving wheels with a predetermined power, the entire propulsion system must be dimensionally designed so that it has a total power equal to about twice that required by the single motor.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a hybrid propulsion apparatus which is highly efficient and does not have the abovementioned drawbacks.
- the object of the invention is to provide a vehicle which is particularly simple and low- cost and at the same time able to allow a practical and versatile use of the vehicle, having sufficient autonomy and without the need for envisaging an excessively large total power of the propulsion apparatus.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a vehicle having a compact hybrid propulsion apparatus which has a low consumption and causes a very limited amount of pollution and which also comprises a particularly small number of substantially simple and reliable components .
- this object is achieved by means of a hybrid propulsion apparatus for a vehicle, a vehicle thus operated and a method for controlling the propulsion of a vehicle in accordance with the characterizing part of Claims 1, 15 and 22.
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic perspective view of a vehicle equipped with the propulsion apparatus according to the present invention
- FIG. 2 shows a side view of the vehicle in Figure 1 according to the present invention
- FIG. 3 shows a simplified circuit diagram of the propulsion apparatus for the vehicle according to the present invention.
- 1 denotes overall a hybrid propulsion apparatus for a vehicle 2 according to the invention.
- the inventive propulsion apparatus 1 comprises :
- an electric motor 3 for rotationally actuating at least one driving wheel 4 of said vehicle 2;
- a power source 5 comprising a storage battery 6 for supplying a current I to said electric motor 3 ;
- an internal-combustion engine 7 operationally connected to a reversible electric machine 8;
- said reversible electric machine 8 is electrically connected to said electric motor 3 and to said storage battery 6 so as to supply said current I to said electric motor 3 and/or recharge said storage battery 6, respectively.
- the inventive propulsion apparatus 1 does not have movement transmission members for connecting the internal-combustion engine 7 to the driving wheel 4 of said vehicle 2.
- the vehicle 2 may have a small- size passenger compartment; in practice with maximum longitudinal dimensions A in the region of 200 cm, with transverse dimensions B of about 100 cm and with a height C in the region of 150 cm.
- the passenger compartment in the embodiment shown in Figure 2 is able to receive two seats Sl and S2 for two users, which are arranged in tandem with positioning which corresponds substantially to that of the two passengers on a motor cycle or equivalent vehicle; the seat Sl may be folded down forwards so as to facilitate access for the passenger who must sit on the rear seat S2.
- the chassis of the vehicle 2 is equipped with suitable bumpers of the shock-absorbing type D or other equivalent and known type .
- the propulsion apparatus 1 comprises control means 9 for electrically and selectively connecting said storage battery 6 to said electric motor and/or to said reversible electric machine 8.
- control means 9 which preferably take the physical form of an ECU, are provided with a power supply output 10 connected to the electric motor 3 and a two-way connection 11 with the storage battery 6 and a two-way connection 12 with the reversible electric machine 8.
- the latter may be of any type suitable for the purpose and may also comprise, for example, a dynamotor.
- the reversible electric machine 8 is rotationally connected to the shaft of the internal- combustion engine 7 by means of movement transmission means 13.
- These movement transmission means 13 in a preferred embodiment of the present invention take the physical form of a continuous variation transmission (CVT) .
- CVT continuous variation transmission
- the reversible electric machine 8 is able to be selectively powered by the storage battery 6 via the control means 9 and the two-way connection 12 so as to rotate at a first speed of rotation below a first threshold so as to start the internal-combustion engine 7.
- the latter after start-up of the internal-combustion engine 7 the latter in turn causes rotation of the reversible electric machine 8, preferably in the same direction, at a second speed of rotation which is higher than said first threshold.
- the reversible electric machine 8 exceeds the first threshold speed, it behaves like a generator, producing electric energy able to power the electric motor 3 so as to actuate rotationally the driving wheel 4 of said vehicle 2.
- the reversible electric machine 8 is a permanent-magnet motor with a 72V power supply and power output of 2.5 kW, while the internal- combustion engine 7 is able to operate at a running speed where it has maximum efficiency, driving the reversible electric machine 8, with a suitable transmission ratio determined by the continuous variation transmission, at a predefined speed of rotation.
- the propulsion apparatus comprises furthermore circuit means 14 which are able to transfer the voltage value detected by the control means 9 to display means 15.
- these display means take the physical form of an analog or liquid crystal display able to constantly inform the user as to the charged state of the storage battery as well as other parameters such as the speed, average and momentary consumption, etc.
- 21 denotes the steering wheel, positioned so as to be comfortably accessible for the passenger sitting in the front seat Sl of the pair of seats arranged in tandem.
- the internal-combustion engine 7 may be an Otto engine, Diesel engine or engine powered by any fuel chosen from ⁇ the group comprising petrol, methane, biofuel, GPL and diesel.
- the internal-combustion engine 7 is a two-stroke direct-injection engine powered by natural gas, such as, for example, methane. It is thus the case that preferably the internal- combustion engine 7 is powered by methane, said methane being contained in special tanks 16.
- the tanks 16 are arranged so as to be aligned in a predefined longitudinal direction X-X of the vehicle 2 in which the vehicle 2 extends from the front end to the rear end with reference to the direction of forward rectilinear travel of the said vehicle.
- the storage battery 6 is preferably housed inside a box-shaped container 17 associated with the chassis of the vehicle 2 and positioned underneath the seats Sl and S2.
- said at least one driving wheel 4 is a rear driving wheel of the vehicle 2.
- the vehicle 2 comprises two rear driving wheels .
- the vehicle 2 may be driven by all four driving wheels .
- the electric motor 3 is housed or incorporated inside each of the driving wheels 4 of the vehicle 2 .
- the driving wheels 4 are therefore each equipped with a motor as mentioned above, so that the mechanical transmissions and in particular the differential for operation of the wheels are eliminated.
- the electric motors 3 may be housed inside the chassis of the vehicle 2.
- the power source 5 may comprise a photovoltaic panel which can be electrically connected to the electric motor 3 and/or to said storage battery 6.
- control means 9 are able to detect the charged state of the storage battery 6 and are designed to operate automatically the reversible machine 8 as described above, when the voltage detected at the terminals of the storage battery 6 falls below a predefined threshold voltage value, so as to start up the internal-combustion engine 7.
- the control means 9 are able to keep the internal-combustion engine 7 normally switched off and connect the storage battery 6 in order to power the electric motor 3 so as to drive rotationally the driving wheels 4 of the vehicle 2 which therefore behaves in the manner of a conventional electric vehicle.
- the control means 9 detect this condition and use the residual charge of the storage battery 6 to operate the reversible electric machine 8.
- the latter starts up the internal-combustion engine 7 which in turn (after start-up) drives the reversible electric machine 8 as already described above .
- the reversible electric machine 8 therefore behaves in the manner of a generator and supplies electric power to the motor 3 by means of the two-way connection 11 and the control means 9.
- control means 9 are designed to apply to the electric motor 3 the power produced by the generator group 7 and 8 in parallel with the power supply provided by the storage battery 6. Therefore the following situations may occur:
- control means 9 are able to interrupt the storage battery charging operation, switching off the internal-combustion engine 7 in the case where the storage battery 6 is charged to a voltage level close to the rated voltage value.
- the power of the storage battery 6 is added to that produced by the reversible electric machine 8 so as to provide the electric motor 3 with the necessary power.
- the storage battery 6 behaves in the manner of a backup power supply unit.
- an internal-combustion engine 7 which has a very limited power - and therefore volume, weight, cost, consumption and emission - for example equal to about 6 kW.
- the propulsion apparatus does not have movement transmission means for connecting the internal-combustion engine 7 to the driving wheels 4 of the vehicle 2.
- This allows maximum freedom for designing the position of the internal-combustion engine 7.
- the internal-combustion engine 7 may be housed anywhere within the chassis of the vehicle 2 namely in any point where there is sufficient space to receive it.
- the internal-combustion engine 7 and the storage battery 6 perform a synergic action by means of the control means 9 and the reversible electric machine 8 so as to power the electric motor 3.
- the reversible electric machine 8 may act as a starter device for the internal-combustion engine 7 and a generator able to power the electric motor 3 and recharge the storage battery 6.
- the latter under normal conditions is the only power source for driving the vehicle and, in conditions where a large amount of power is used by the electric motor 3, performs a back-up action, supplying additional power.
- this solution which is normally called a hybrid solution, has the great advantage that it is no longer conditioned by the critical problem of having to recharge the batteries, being able to fill up with fuel at a normal methane gas fuelling station (if a methane-gas powered two-stroke engine is chosen as the internal-combustion engine 7) .
- the reversible electric machine 8 is connected to the terminals of the storage battery 6 (for the sake of simplicity of the illustration the control means 9 are not shown here) via a switch 24 operated, for example, by a coil (not shown in the figures) .
- the positive terminal of the storage battery 6 is connected by means of a main switch 26 to the driving wheel 4 housing the electric motor 3, while the other terminal of the storage battery 6 is connected to earth.
- the switch 26 When the user decides to move the vehicle 2 using electric driving power, the switch 26 must be closed.
- the switch 24 is also closed.
- the reversible electric machine 8 is powered by the storage battery 6 and starts up the internal-combustion engine 7, as described above. After start-up of the internal-combustion engine 7, the latter rotationally drives the reversible electric machine 8, causing it to operate as a generator which powers the electric motor 3 so as to ensure the movement of the motor vehicle 2. Any surplus current generated with respect to the actual consumption of the electric motor 3 is used for the operation of recharging the storage battery 6.
- control means 4 automatically switch off the internal- combustion engine 7 and open the switch 24 and the vehicle starts to operate normally again, powered by the storage battery 6.
- polarisation means such as, for example, a polarisation diode able to prevent this from happening, are envisaged (not shown in figures) .
