摘要:
A drive arrangement suitable for a mobile robot and particularly for an autonomous surface treating appliance. The drive arrangement comprises a drive housing adapted to be mounted on a chassis of a mobile robot and includes a drive motor operatively connected to a drive shaft having a drive axis. The drive arrangement further comprises a linkage member rotatably mounted to the drive housing about a pivot axis, a first wheel carried by the drive shaft, a second wheel carried by the linkage member, and means for transmitting drive from the first wheel to the second wheel.

Muffled sound determining means (124) determines whether a vehicle has been placed in four-wheel drive by a driving torque distributing apparatus (54) and the running state of the vehicle is a preset muffled sound producing state in which a muffled sound may be produced. If the muffled sound determining means (124) determines that the running state of the vehicle is the muffled sound producing state, squeezing force changing means (126) changes the belt squeezing force in the belt-type transmission (18). As a result, the tension on a drive belt (48) changes, in turn changing the frequency of the string vibration of the drive belt so that it will not resonate with the natural frequency of the drive-line that transmits power to the rear wheels, thereby reducing the muffled sound.

A bearing lubrication device in a right angle gear reducer includes a gear housing having an interior portion and a lubricating fluid reservoir therein. An oil slinger, rotating pinion shaft, pinion shaft housing, and bearings for supporting the pinion shaft within the pinion shaft housing work together to provide a continuous supply of oil to the bearings. The pinion shaft includes two radially and longitudinally extending passageways therethrough which supply oil from a recess in one end of the pinion shaft to the bearings. Oil is slung from the reservoir into the recess of the rotating pinion shaft where it is forced outwardly and through the passageways to a chamber formed by the rotating pinion shaft, shaft housing and bearings. The roller bearings pump the oil from the chamber back to the fluid reservoir. Oil passageways in the shaft housing enable the return of oil from one bearing set.

A vehicle drivetrain (110) includes an engine (122) with a vertical crankshaft (124), a first transmission (126) below the engine and driven by the crankshaft, a second trasmission (128) above the first transmission and horizontally adjacent the engine and having a downwardly extending vertical input shaft (130) driven by the first transmission and having an output providing vehicle propulsion. A module pre-assembled unit is ready for drop-in mounting to a vehicle. To facilitate assembly, the engine (122) and the second transmission (128) are attached to an upper surface of a first transmission mounting case (148).

A transmission in a power machine (10) includes an axle (130) having an inboard (122) and outboard end (120). The outboard end is coupled to a wheel through a universal joint (124). The inboard end is coupled, through a sprocket assembly (128) and chain drive linkage to a hydraulic motor. The axle (130) is supported at its inboard end by a single spherical bearing (156).

An automatic transmission for an automotive vehicle includes a continually variable drive mechanism (16) having one sheave assembly (54,56) fixed to an input shaft (12) and an output sheave assembly (58,60) supported on an intermediate shaft (34), a first gearset (20) for producing forward drive low gear and a range of continuously variable gear ratios, a second gearset (20) for producing reverse drive, a first fixed ratio drive mechanism (18) in the form of a chain drive providing a torque delivery path between the intermediate shaft (34) and a ring gear (64) of the first gearset, a second fixed drive mechanism (22) in the form of a chain drive located in a torque delivery path between the output shaft (14) and a front drive shaft, a transfer clutch (102) for connecting and releasing the output sheave (58,60) of the variable drive mechanism (18) and a sprocket wheel (32) fixed to that shaft (34), a coast brake and forward brake (98) for holding alternately the ring gear (64) of the first gearset, and a reverse brake (110) for holding the carrier (68) of the second gearset.
摘要:
A method is disclosed for distributing energy in a vehicle having a hybrid electric drive system that includes an internal combustion engine and at least one electric motor which deliver torque to a primary drive shaft having at least two drive wheels operatively associated therewith. The method includes the steps of delivering torque from the internal combustion engine and the electric motor to the primary drive shaft to accelerate the vehicle from a stationary position to a predetermined cruising velocity, disengaging the electric motor from the primary drive shaft once the vehicle has accelerated to the cruising velocity to reduce parasitic drag on the system, and delivering torque from the internal combustion engine to the primary drive shaft utilizing the mean horsepower of the internal combustion engine to maintain the vehicle at the cruising velocity.
