摘要:
The present disclosure teaches a fuel efficient method for powering a vehicle. The total peak power requirements for a moving vehicle under a set of performance criteria are divided into at least two subgroups. A primary engine is provided with a size and output to provide for the peak power for one of the at least two subgroups and one or more auxiliary engines or auxiliary engine subsystems are provided with a size and output to provide for up to the peak power for the remaining one or more subgroups.

The invention relates to a self-propelled civil engineering machine, in particular a road-milling machine, a road recycler, or a road stabilizer, having a frame carried by a set of running gear, a working unit for performing work required for the civil engineering operation, and in particular a working drum, and a drive unit carried by the frame of the machine, to drive the working drum. A power transmitter is used to transmit the driving power from the drive unit to the working unit. The drive unit of the self-propelled civil engineering machine has a first and a second drive engine, the power transmitter being so designed that the driving powers coming from the first and the second drive engines can be transmitted to the working unit together. With the design of drive according to the invention, a particularly space-saving construction is obtained for the drive and this allows the power of the drive unit to be increased without having to exceed the preset width for transport of the self-propelled civil engineering machine.

A gear shift control apparatus for a hybrid vehicle can achieve enhancement of the transmission efficiency and enhancement of the fuel cost without damaging the drivability to the utmost. The gear shift control apparatus for a hybrid vehicle includes an engine, a transmission for changing the speed of rotation of the engine, and a motor for assisting the driving force of the engine. The assist torque maximum value of the motor is set higher when the gear position of the transmission is a predetermined gear position at which the transmission efficiency of the driving force is highest than when the gear position is any other gear position than the predetermined gear position.

A surface cleaning vehicle is provided with hydraulically driven sweeping machinery. The vehicle comprises a truck chassis for carrying the sweeping machinery and a prime mover engine for propelling the vehicle. A second engine is connected to said chassis, and first and second pumps and associated check valves are connected to respective ones of the prime mover and second engines for driving said sweeping machinery. A control mechanism is provided for selectively connecting only one of the prime mover engine or second engine to drive the sweeping machinery.
摘要:
A pulsing drive system delivers pulsed power signals to the driven wheels of a vehicle for improving the efficiency internal combustion or an electric motor driven vehicles. A controller receives signals such as velocity and demand, and communicates to a means for selectively communicating energy wherein the means for selectively communicating energy converts the pulse signal to a correspondingly conditioned power pulse for powering the vehicle. When combined with a plurality of motors sized with optimal horsepower ranges according to a binary array, an arrangement of such motors provides for an optimally efficient operation of the vehicle by bringing on-line strategically selected combinations of the motors. A control system selectively brings on-line the multiple motors.

The vehicle (1) comprises a driving wheel (2) driven by an electric motor (3) whose control circuit (4) is supplied by a generator (6) coupled to a fuel engine (5), and a sensor (18) supplying a power-setting control signal (SC) representative of the position of an accelerator pedal (17) and hence of the desired power that the electric motor (3) has to supply to the wheel (2). To avoid having to provide the vehicle (1) with a large capacity traction battery, the vehicle further comprises means (7, 14 to 16, 19, 20) responsive to the power setting signal (SC) to regulate the rotational speed of the fuel engine (5) to the value at which the latter supplies a mechanical power (Pm) that is equal, firstly, to the desired power and, secondly, to a predetermined fraction of its maximum power.
