- the gear ratio of the planetary set is the input torque to the torque converter so that the output of the one remaining engine is more efficiently matched to the torque converter.
- the invention stated in US6179078 discloses the invention which relates to discloses a fuel-efficient and inexpensive automobile having two engines, each coupled to a drive wheel by way of a continuously variable ratio torque converter. Both engines are used for acceleration or hill-climbing, then either engine is used for economical cruising.
- One disadvantage of this system is the limited power capacity and speed range of current continuously variable ratio torque converters, especially when used for acceleration and hill-climbing.
- the other document US4588040 provide a triple hybrid power system for driving a motor vehicle utilizing an internal combustion engine to drive an electric generator to charge a bank of batteries that provide electrical energy to drive an electric motor/generator that supplies power to a planetary gear set from which power is directed through a variable drive transmission to drive the wheels of the vehicle, a flywheel is used to apply periodic power through the planetary gear set to provide added power for acceleration, with a speed regulator disposed between the flywheel and the planetary gear set to maintain a substantially constant input speed that facilitates operation of the operable to apply regenerative braking energy back through the planetary gear set to recharge the flywheel and, through to motor/generator, to recharge the batteries.
- the internal combustion engine can be applied directly to power the vehicle at optimum efficiency with the motor/generator and flywheel disengaged.
- the other document 173/DEL/2008 describes twin engine fuel efficient car which is propelled on the highways by small capacity engine mounted at the rear of the car and synchronized with rear wheel and accelerator paddle and the main front engine is switched off on the highways.
- this present invention relates to a highly fuel efficient vehicle which can be operated by two numbers of low powered engines or by one low powered engine based on output load required. Furthermore, this invention also relates to a highly fuel efficient vehicle which has the beneficial effects of simple structure and the economic benefit is greatly improved, so that the eco-friendly car has the advantages of high efficiency, fuel saving, environmental friendliness and economy.
- the principal object of the invention is to provide a highly fuel efficient vehicle having a power transmission system.
