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, fourth, fifth and a sixth shifting element, and at least one planetary transmission, it being possible for the input shaft to be coupled by means of the first shifting element to a first transmission shaft, and it being possible for the first transmission shaft to be coupled by means of the second shifting element to the internal gear of the planetary transmission, and it being possible for the first transmission shaft to be coupled by means of the third shifting element to a second transmission shaft, and it being possible for the first transmission shaft to be coupled by means of the fourth shifting element to a third transmission shaft, and it being possible for the output shaft to be coupled by means of the fifth shifting element to the third transmission shaft, and the output shaft being coupled to the planetary carrier of the planetary transmission, it being possible for the second transmission shaft to be coupled by means of the sixth shifting element to the sun gear of the first 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, fourth, fifth and sixth shifting element, and at least one planetary transmission. The output shaft is coupled to the planetary carrier of the planetary transmission. Within the context of the description, a coupling is to be understood as meaning 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 a first transmission shaft. The first transmission shaft can be coupled by means of the second shifting element to the internal gear of the planetary transmission. Furthermore, the first transmission shaft can be coupled by means of the third shifting element to a second transmission shaft. Furthermore, the first transmission shaft can be coupled by means of the fourth shifting element to a third transmission shaft. The second transmission shaft can be coupled by means of the sixth shifting element to the sun gear of the planetary transmission. The output shaft can be coupled by means of the fifth shifting element to the third transmission shaft. In particular, the output shaft can be coupled to an output. An output is, in particular, at least a shaft or an 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 sixth and open fourth and fifth shifting element. The input shaft is decoupled from the output shaft in the case of an open first shifting element.


In another refinement of the invention, the transmission comprises a seventh shifting element which is set up to couple the second transmission shaft to a fixed point.


A seventh shifting element is provided for the transmission, which seventh shifting element makes releasing or retaining of the second transmission shaft possible, in particular connecting of the second transmission shaft or supporting of the second transmission shaft on a fixed point or on a housing of the transmission. The retaining of the second transmission shaft comprises the fixed, rigid fixing of the stationary second transmission shaft. The releasing of the second transmission shaft comprises the releasing of the fixing, with the result that the second transmission shaft accelerates in accordance with the forces which act on the second transmission shaft. 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 seventh shifting elements. The fourth-highest transmission ratio, achievable with said transmission, between the input shaft and the output shaft thus results in the case of a closed seventh, first, second, fifth and sixth shifting element, and open third and fourth shifting element.


In another refinement of the invention, the transmission comprises an eighth shifting element which is set up to couple the internal gear of the planetary transmission to a fixed point.


An eighth shifting element is provided for the transmission which makes releasing or retaining of the internal gear of the planetary transmission possible, in particular connecting of the internal gear of the planetary transmission, or supporting of the internal gear of the planetary transmission on a fixed point or on a housing of the transmission. The retaining of the internal gear of the planetary transmission comprises the fixed, rigid fixing of the stationary internal gear of the planetary transmission. The releasing of the internal gear of the planetary transmission comprises the disengaging of the fixing, with the result that the internal gear of the 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 with the above-described topology of the transmission by way of the first to eighth shifting elements. The third-highest transmission ratio, achievable with said transmission, between the input shaft and the output shaft thus results in the case of closed eighth, first, third, fourth and fifth and open second, sixth and seventh shifting element.


In another refinement of the invention, the transmission comprises a ninth shifting element which is set up to couple the third transmission shaft to the sun gear of the planetary transmission.


A ninth shifting element is provided for the transmission, which ninth shifting element makes releasing or coupling of the third transmission shaft from/to the sun gear of the planetary transmission possible. The coupling of the third transmission shaft to the sun gear of the planetary transmission comprises the fixed, rigid connecting of the third transmission shaft to the sun gear of the planetary transmission so as to rotate with it. The releasing of the third transmission shaft from the sun gear of the planetary transmission comprises the releasing of the connection, with the result that the third transmission shaft or the sun gear accelerates in accordance with the forces which act on the third transmission shaft or the sun 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 ninth shifting elements. Six 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 second, third, fifth, seventh, eighth and/or the ninth shifting element comprise/comprises a claw coupling.


The second, third, fifth, seventh, eighth and/or the ninth shifting element are/is configured as a claw coupling. The third and seventh shifting element or the ninth and fifth shifting element or the eighth and second shifting element are either open or 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 three positions, in particular: first-mentioned shifting element closed; both shifting elements open; last-mentioned shifting element closed. A possibility for controllable coupling of the components of the transmission is advantageously provided.


In a further refinement of the invention, the first, fourth and/or the sixth shifting element comprise/comprises a clutch.


In order to connect the individual components of the transmission, the first, fourth and/or the sixth shifting element are/is configured as a clutch. A clutch of this type can be, in particular, a dry clutch, a wet 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 first transmission shaft.


The first drive unit can be attached on the input shaft on the input side. The second drive unit can be coupled to the first transmission shaft. 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 first 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 (stand still 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, for example for starting an internal combustion engine, is made possible.


In the case of an open first shifting element, the second drive unit is connected in each case via one of the six 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 six fixed transmission ratios. By means of (in particular, metered) closing of the first 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.


Furthermore, the invention relates to a hybrid drive arrangement having a transmission, the hybrid drive arrangement comprising a second drive assembly and/or a pulse inverter, electric energy source or a first drive unit.


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 first transmission shaft. 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:


determining of an operating specification signal;


actuating of at least one of the shifting elements in order to set the functionality of the transmission in a manner which is dependent on the operating specification signal (BV).


A method for operating a hybrid drive arrangement having a transmission is provided. Here, an operating specification signal is determined. At least one of the shifting elements is closed or opened in order to set the functionality of the transmission or of a corresponding operating mode in a manner which is dependent on the operating specification signal. The operating specification signal is predefined in a manner which is dependent on an operating strategy, a driver request or accelerator pedal, a battery management system or other systems which are available, for example, in a vehicle. In a manner which is dependent on said operating specification signal, the shifting elements are actuated in order to set the corresponding functionality or the operating mode of the transmission, in particular the clutches or brakes are closed or opened. The functionality of the transmission or the operating mode are, in particular, the different transmission ratios of the various gear stages, or the various modes or operating modes, for example generator operation of the second drive unit in the case of a stationary output shaft. A method for operating a hybrid drive arrangement is advantageously provided.


Furthermore, the invention relates to a computer program which is set up to carry out the described method.


Furthermore, the invention relates to a machine-readable storage medium, on which the described computer program is stored.


It goes without saying that the features, properties and advantages of the transmission relate and/or can be applied accordingly to the hybrid drive arrangement, the vehicle and/or the method, and vice versa. Further features and advantages of embodiments of the invention result from the following description with reference to the appended drawings.

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 planetary transmission 5. Furthermore, the transmission 100 comprises nine shifting elements SE1 . . . SE9. The first shifting element SE1, in particular a clutch, is set up to connect or to disconnect the input shaft 10 to/from a first transmission shaft 16. The second shifting element SE2, in particular a claw coupling, is set up to connect or to disconnect the first transmission shaft 16 to/from the internal gear of the planetary transmission 5. The third shifting element SE3, in particular a claw coupling, is set up to connect or to disconnect the first transmission shaft 16 to/from a second transmission shaft 17. The fourth shifting element SE4, in particular a clutch, is set up to connect or to disconnect the first transmission shaft 16 to/from a third transmission shaft 18. The fifth shifting element SE5, in particular a claw coupling, is set up to connect or to disconnect the third transmission shaft 18 to/from the output shaft 11 and therefore to/from the planetary carrier of the planetary transmission 5. The sixth shifting element SE6, in particular a clutch, is set up to connect or to disconnect the second transmission shaft 17 to/from the sun gear of the planetary transmission 5. Furthermore, the transmission 100 can have a seventh shifting element SE7. The seventh shifting element SE7, in particular a claw coupling, is set up to couple the second transmission shaft 17 to a fixed point, for example to support it on the housing (not shown) of the transmission 100. Furthermore, the transmission 100 can comprise an eighth shifting element SE8. The eighth shifting element SE8, in particular a claw coupling, is set up to couple the internal gear of the planetary transmission 5 to a fixed point, for example to support it on the housing (not shown) of the transmission 100. Furthermore, the transmission 100 can comprise a ninth shifting element SE9. The ninth shifting element SE9, in particular a claw coupling, is set up to couple the third transmission shaft 18 to the sun gear of the planetary transmission 5. 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. The second drive unit 8, in particular an electric machine, is connected to the first transmission shaft 16 for the operation of the transmission 100, as shown in FIG. 1. 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 . . . SE9 are indicated only as an arrow for reasons of clarity and are not illustrated completely. The communication between the shifting elements SE1 . . . SE9 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 . . . SE9 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, six gears G1 . . . G6 can be set, the first gear G1 having the highest transmission ratio and the sixth gear G6 having the lowest transmission ratio. In the case of the gears G1 . . . G6, there is preferably in each case a fixed rotational speed ratio between the first drive unit 7 and the output shaft 11 in accordance with the transmission ratio indicated in the last column. The output shaft is driven in the gears G1 . . . G6 either by the first drive unit 7 alone or by way of the second drive unit 8 together. 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 E6 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 first shifting element SE1 has to be open, in order that there is no connection to the first drive unit 7. In particular, electric motor gears arise, for example if the second drive unit is an electric machine. A vehicle can advantageously be operated locally without emissions in said gears. By way of example, the transmission ratios indicated in the shifting matrix arise between the second drive unit 8 and the output shaft 11.


A further mode CH1 (also called standstill charging) results if only the first shifting element SE1 is closed and the remaining shifting elements SE2 . . . SE9 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 . . . SE9 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 . . . SE9. Moreover, the operating specification signal BV can also represent a defined operating mode such as one of the four gears G1 . . . G6 or the two gears E1 . . . E6 which are operated only by way of the second drive unit 8, or else can represent the special function standstill charging CH1. In a manner which is dependent on said operating specification signal BV, the shifting elements SE1 to SE9 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 . . . SE9 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.
