Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the field of vehicles, and in particular to a wheel hub driving system for a new energy vehicle using hub driving.

BACKGROUND

For a vehicle using an electric drive, especially a heavy-duty vehicle, the drive modes of the vehicle can, for example, be divided into a central motor drive and a hub motor drive.

For a vehicle using a central motor drive, the driving system of the vehicle comprises a central drive motor, a clutch and a reducer that can provide two or three gear ratios. Such a driving system comprises many transmission components and has a long in transmission chain and a large system weight, which will result in large energy loss and low transmission efficiency in the power transmission process.

For a vehicle using a hub motor drive, especially a heavy-duty vehicle, a drive assembly and a brake assembly of the vehicle are usually provided on the inner side of a wheel rim. The drive assembly comprises a drive motor, a planetary gear reducer (usually provided with two stages of planetary gear sets) and a wheel hub bearing.

As two planetary gear sets of the reducer of such a hub driving system are differential, or the two planetary gear sets share the same geared rings, coupled design must be performed for the gears involved in transmission. It is difficult to design and manufacture the planetary gear reducer in a modular manner, and the assembly of components is complicated.

Next, a transmission path of torque (or power) of the wheel hub driving system according to the present disclosure in the transmission and braking process is introduced, wherein braking of the wheel hub driving system comprises the braking of the electric motor E itself and mechanical braking using the brake device 20.

(I) Power Transmission Path Through Which the Electric Motor E Performs Driving

When the electric motor E drives the wheel rim to rotate, the transmission path of the rotational torque is as follows: from the rotor ER, the rotor support F, the primary sun gear GS1, the primary planetary gear, the primary planet carrier GC1, the secondary sun gear GS2, the secondary planetary gear, the secondary planet carrier GC2, and the outer ring B13 to the wheel rim.

(II) Power Transmission Path Through Which the Electric Motor E Performs Braking

When the electric motor E performs braking, the transmission path of the braking torque is as follows: from the rotor ER, the rotor support F, the primary sun gear GS1, the primary planetary gear, the primary planet carrier GC1, the secondary sun gear GS2, the secondary planetary gear, the secondary planet carrier GC2, and the outer ring B13 to the wheel rim.

(III) Power Transmission Path Through Which the Brake Device 20 Performs Braking

When the brake device 20 performs braking, the transmission path of the braking torque is as follows: from the brake drum 21, the primary sun gear GS1, the primary planetary gear, the primary planet carrier GC1, the secondary sun gear GS2, the secondary planetary gear, the secondary planet carrier GC2, and the outer ring B13 to the wheel rim.

Some of the beneficial effects of the above embodiments of the present disclosure are briefly described hereinafter.

(i) The wheel hub driving system according to the present disclosure has a simple structure, a short transmission chain and high transmission efficiency.

(ii) Two stages of planetary gear sets are used in the present disclosure such that a larger gear ratio can be achieved; and the two planetary gear sets are connected with each other in series, and the size and structure design of each planetary gear set can be performed independently, and this falls under the heading of a decoupled design. When different speed ratios must be provided for different applications, the design can be adjusted by just changing the size and structure of one of the planetary gear sets. Compared to differentially-connected planetary gear sets, modular design can be achieved more easily by the planetary gear sets according to the present disclosure.

(iii) The brake device 20 of the present disclosure is anti-torsionally connected to the input end of the planetary gear sets (i.e., the primary sun gear GS1), and the braking torque of the brake device 20 may be amplified by the planetary gear sets. Compared to the common way of, for example, connecting the brake device directly with a wheel, the brake device 20 of the wheel hub driving system according to the present disclosure can meet the braking requirement of the vehicle simply with a small braking torque, and accordingly the size and weight of the brake device may be reduced.

(iv) The first partition wall W1 and the second partition wall W2 are formed in the inner cavity of the housing 10. In this way, the connection and positioning of various components are facilitated; and additionally, the inner cavity of the housing 10 is divided into three chambers such that heat generated in the rotating process of the electric motor E and heat generated in the braking process of the brake device 20 are not easily transferred to other components.

It should be understood that the foregoing embodiments are exemplary only and are not intended to limit the present disclosure. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications and changes to the foregoing embodiments according to the teaching of the present disclosure without departing from the scope of the present disclosure.
