Detailed Description
In the following, a specific embodiment of an electric axle for a motor vehicle according to the invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following detailed description and the accompanying drawings are provided to illustrate the principles of the invention and not to limit the invention to the preferred embodiments described, the scope of which is defined by the claims.
As shown in fig. 1, an electric axle 100 for a motor vehicle according to the present invention includes an electric motor 1, a reduction gear, and a differential.
The above components are described in detail below.
The electric motor 1 is in driving connection with a reduction gear for providing a driving torque to the reduction gear via the motor output.
The decelerator includes an input shaft. The speed reducer is configured to receive an input driving torque through the input shaft and to increase the driving torque and output the driving torque to the differential, and the differential is configured to distribute the driving torque to a first wheel (not shown) in driving connection with the first output shaft 10 and a second wheel (not shown) in driving connection with the second output shaft 11 through the first output shaft 10 and the second output shaft 11, respectively.
The reduction gear further includes a first planetary gear, a second planetary gear, and a reduction gear housing for accommodating the first planetary gear and the second planetary gear. The first planetary transmission is configured to receive a drive torque from the input shaft and output to the second planetary transmission. Specifically, as shown in fig. 1, the first planetary transmission includes a sun gear 2, a first planetary gear 3, and a first ring gear 5, the first ring gear 5 includes internal teeth and external teeth, the internal teeth of the first ring gear 5 are for meshing with the first planetary gear 3, and a first planetary wheel shaft 4 equipped with the first planetary gear 3 is configured to be fixed to a speed reducer case. As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, in the electric axle 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention, when a driving torque is input from the input shaft to the first planetary gear, the sun gear 2 rotates as the input of the first planetary gear, thereby transmitting the driving torque to the first planetary gear 3 meshed with the sun gear 2; thereafter, since the first planetary gear shaft 4 equipped with the first planetary gear 3 is fixed to the reduction case, as the sun gear 2 rotates, the first planetary gear 3 is driven by the sun gear 2 engaged therewith to rotate with the first planetary gear shaft 4 as the rotation axis and not to rotate around the sun gear 2; next, the first ring gear 5 meshed with the first planetary gear 3 is driven to rotate with the rotation of the first planetary gear 3, so that the first ring gear 5 outputs a driving torque as an output of the first planetary gear.
The second planetary gear includes a second planetary gear 6, a carrier 8, and a second ring gear 7, and the second ring gear 7 is configured to be fixed to the reduction gear housing. The first ring gear 5 meshes with the second planetary gears 6 via its outer teeth, so that the first planetary gear is in driving connection with the second planetary gear. As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, in the electric axle 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention, when the drive torque is input from the first ring gear 4 to the second planetary gear, the second planetary gear 6 is driven to rotate by the first ring gear 4 engaged therewith, thereby driving the carrier 8 to rotate, and thereby the carrier 8 outputs the drive torque as an output of the second planetary gear, while the first ring gear 5 is used as a ring gear of the first planetary gear.
Furthermore, the differential comprises a differential housing 9, the planet carrier 8 of the second planetary gear being configured as one piece with the differential housing 9, so that the planet carrier 8 is in driving connection with the differential. In the electric axle according to the embodiment of the invention, the drive torque is input into the differential through the differential case 9 integrally formed with the carrier 8 of the second planetary transmission, after which the differential outputs the drive torque to the two wheels through the bevel gears. However, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the integration of the carrier 8 with the differential case 9 is merely an example, and that the connection between the carrier 8 and the differential case 9 may be a mechanical fastener connection, for example, as long as the transmission of drive torque therebetween is achieved.
Thus, the drive torque is input from the input shaft to the sun gear 2 of the first planetary transmission, is transmitted in turn via the first planet gears 3 and the first ring gear 5 to the second planet gears 6, and is output to the differential via the planet carrier 8 of the second planet gears 6.
The following describes a transmission process of the driving torque of the electric axle 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention.
A drive torque is input from the input shaft to the sun gear 2 of the first planetary transmission to rotate the sun gear 2 about the input shaft. Then, the sun gear 2 rotating around the input shaft drives the first planetary gear 3 to rotate by the meshing force between the gears, thereby transmitting the driving torque to the first planetary gear 3 meshing therewith. Next, the rotating first planetary gear 3 drives the first ring gear 5 to rotate by the meshing force between the gears, thereby transmitting the driving torque to the first ring gear 5 meshing therewith to complete the transmission of the driving torque with the sun gear 2 as an input and the first ring gear 5 as an output in the first planetary transmission. Thereafter, the first ring gear 5 serves as a sun gear of the second planetary gear, and the second planetary gear 6 is driven to rotate by an meshing force between gears, thereby transmitting a driving torque to the second planetary gear 6 meshing therewith and thereby to the carrier 8 to thereby drive the carrier 8 to rotate, so that transmission of the driving torque with the first ring gear 5 as an input and the carrier 8 as an output in the second planetary gear is completed. After that, the drive torque is input into the differential from the differential case 9 integrally formed with the carrier 8, so that the drive torque is transmitted from the reduction gear to the differential. Finally, the differential outputs drive torque to the two wheels through bevel gears.
In the electric vehicle axle according to the present invention, the electric vehicle axle has an arrangement in which one planetary transmission (i.e., the first planetary transmission described in the above-described embodiment) is embedded in the other planetary transmission (i.e., the second planetary transmission described in the above-described embodiment), and therefore, the axial dimension of the electric vehicle axle can be reduced. Moreover, the planetary transmission device has the characteristics of small volume and large speed ratio, so that the driving torque amplifying function of the speed reducer can be improved, and the radial size of a gear in the connecting transmission device can be reduced, thereby reducing the radial size of the electric axle. Therefore, the electric vehicle axle according to the present invention has an advantage of compact structure.
Furthermore, in the electric vehicle axle according to the invention, the first ring gear with the internal teeth and the external teeth is used as the first ring gear of the inner planetary gear and also as the sun gear of the outer planetary gear, and the planet carrier of the inner planetary gear can be omitted so that the planet axle is directly fixed to the reduction gear housing, so that the electric vehicle axle according to the invention has the advantages of simple structure, low cost, good lubrication performance and low noise.
As described above, although the exemplary embodiments of the present invention have been described in the description with reference to the accompanying drawings, the present invention is not limited to the above-described specific embodiments, and the scope of the present invention should be defined by the claims and their equivalents.
