    摘要: Specialty tractor includes a diesel engine coupled with a powertrain including a clutch and a manual shift transmission having an output shaft that is designed to transmits power to the wheels of the tractor. An electric motor includes an output shaft connected through a power transmission to the output shaft of the manual shift transmission. The specialty tractor includes an electronic unit configured to perform at least a first operating mode and a second operating mode. In the first operating mode the clutch is opened and the manual transmission does not receive any torque from the diesel engine, and the electric motor transmits torque to the wheels the tractor. In the second operating mode the clutch is closed and the manual transmission receives torque from the diesel engine so that the engine-torque is transmitted to the wheels of the tractor that moves at a speed higher than the speed limit.

    摘要: A multi-mode hybrid module includes a fluid coupling, an electric motor and a first clutch. The fluid coupling includes a fluid coupling housing, an impeller drivingly connected to the fluid coupling housing, and a turbine arranged for driving connection to a transmission input shaft. The electric motor includes a nonrotatable stator and a rotatable rotor including a rotor carrier. The first clutch is arranged to drivingly connect the rotor carrier directly to the transmission input shaft. In some example embodiments, the first clutch is a dog clutch. In some example embodiments, the multi-mode hybrid module includes a first clutch actuator. The first clutch has an axially slidable sleeve arranged to selectively rotationally connect the rotor carrier and the transmission input shaft, and the first clutch actuator is arranged to displace the axially slidable sleeve to connect and disconnect the rotor carrier and the transmission input shaft.

    摘要: A hybrid module includes a housing with a bulkhead wall, a K0 shaft, a rotor assembly, a rotor carrier and a first bearing. The K0 shaft is arranged for driving connection with a crankshaft. The rotor assembly has an electric motor rotor and a thrust surface for a K0 clutch. The K0 clutch is arranged to drivingly connect the rotor assembly to the K0 shaft. The rotor carrier is fixed to the rotor assembly and the first bearing is arranged to rotationally separate the bulkhead wall and the rotor carrier. In an example embodiment, the first bearing is a deep groove ball bearing. In an example embodiment, the hybrid module includes a seal installed in the bulkhead wall and contacting the K0 shaft. In an example embodiment, the hybrid module includes a bushing installed on the K0 shaft and arranged for contacting an inner bore of the crankshaft.

    摘要: A vehicle system includes an internal combustion engine including a fuel injection valve configured to inject fuel into an intake port and a throttle valve configured to control intake air amount for controlling engine torque, and being mounted on a vehicle. The vehicle system further includes a control device configured to control the vehicle. The control device includes a fuel increment controlling component that executes a fuel increment control to make the air-fuel ratio richer than the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio in a plurality of cycles started from a fuel injection start cycle at the time of engine start-up. Where a torque rate correlation value correlated with a torque rate that is a time rate of increase of the engine torque is lower, the fuel increment controlling component decreases a total fuel injection amount in the plurality of cycles.

    摘要: A multi-purpose vehicle is disclosed that includes a mode change switch for operating a travel mode of a vehicle body and a mode control device for switching the travel mode of the vehicle body in response to an operation of the mode change switch. The mode control device switches the travel mode of the vehicle body between a two-wheel engine driving mode in which only an engine is driven, a two-wheel motor driving mode in which only a motor is driven, a four-wheel hybrid driving mode in which both of the engine and the motor are driven, and an OFF-mode in which none of the engine and the motor is driven.
