To provide desired shaft torque to a drive wheel without increasing the number of parts or increasing the size of a motor, to improve cooling capability of a generator housed inside a transmission case, and to improve energy transmission efficiency and electrical generation efficiency in an engine unit of a hybrid vehicle. A power unit structure for a hybrid vehicle is provided with an engine, a continuously variable transmission, a driven shaft, a drive motor and a reduction gear mechanism. The drive motor is attached to the reduction gear mechanism.

A centrifugal fan is mounted to an inner plate of a centrifugal clutch as a heat-generating rotating device, and an intake port of a casing is formed near a front side in the axial direction of the centrifugal fan. The centrifugal fan includes a base plate connected to the inner plate of the centrifugal clutch, plural fins formed on the base plate, blow-off holes each formed between arbitrary adjacent fins and extending axially through the base plate, and guide walls for guiding a radially outward air flow over the base plate into the blow-off holes. Air just after admitted from the intake port passes through the blow-off holes and is blown against the centrifugal clutch.

Oil pressure detecting means 150 detects a clutch oil pressure in driving a clutch in its engaging direction against a biasing force of a return spring 12 for normally disengaging the clutch. Stroke end detecting means 140 detects that the clutch has reached a stroke end position where clutch disks are in contact with each other when the amount of change in clutch oil pressure becomes larger than a predetermined value. Clutch control correction amount calculating means 130 calculates a work load generated in the return spring 12 according to the clutch oil pressure detected at the stroke end position and then calculates a control correction amount for the clutch according to the difference between the work load calculated above and a predetermined reference value.

To achieve downsizing of a power unit and the vicinity thereof by permitting compact axial arrangement in a straddle-ride type vehicle on which the power unit having a twin-clutch type transmission is mounted. The transmission has a pair of main shafts with respective different axes and corresponding clutches. One of respective axial centers of the main shafts is disposed on one (above) of the sides with respect to a line and the other is disposed on the other side (below), the line connecting an axial center of the counter shaft with an axial center of a pivot shaft, as viewed in side elevation from the axial direction of the main shafts and counter shaft.

A saddle type vehicle having mounted thereon a power unit is provided with a twin clutch type transmission including a pair of main shafts and a pair of clutches along different axes, to enable a compact layout of axes and a reduction in size of the unit and its surroundings. The axis center (first main axis) of a first main shaft is disposed rearwardly of the axis center (crank axis) of a crankshaft and forwardly of the axis center (counter axis) of a counter shaft, whereas the axis center (second main axis) of a second main shaft is disposed rearwardly of the axis center (counter axis) of the counter shaft and forwardly of the axis center (pivot axis) of a pivot shaft.
摘要:
In a clutch control system for a vehicle having a hydraulic type clutch in the course of power transmission between an engine and a drive wheel the operational response of the clutch is enhanced and the influence of a hysteresis present in oil pressure-stroke characteristic is suppressed. When the clutch is disconnected, a control oil pressure thereof is maintained at a predetermined stand-by oil pressure (allowance compensating oil pressure) P1. At the time of connecting the clutch, the control oil pressure is increased to a predetermined connection oil pressure P2. In bringing the clutch from the connected state into the disconnected state, the control oil pressure is lowered to an oil pressure P3 being below the stand-by oil pressure P1 and being near 0, and is thereafter increased again to the stand-by oil pressure P1.

A twin clutch type speed-change apparatus applies a dog clutch to speed-change gears slid on a main shaft and a counter shaft for changing the number of speed-change steps. A twin clutch type speed-change apparatus includes a transmission having a plurality of gear pairs between a main shaft and a countershaft and a twin clutch. The rotational drive force of the engine is connected/disconnected between the transmission and the engine by the twin clutch. A dog clutch with dog teeth and a dog hole is applied between an axially slidably attached slidable gear and an axially non-slidably attached non-slidable gear to select an on gear pair for transmitting the rotational drive gear, from a plurality of gear pairs in the transmission. Rotational drive force is transmitted between the slidable gear slid by a shift fork and the coaxially adjacent non-slidable gear by engagement of the dog clutch.
摘要:
In a twin clutch type speed change control system in which changeover of gear position is carried out by switching between a pair of clutches, to suppress the noises of clutch being in the disengaged condition during a normal operation with a fixed gear position. In the twin clutch type speed change control system, changeover of gear position between an odd-ordinal gear position and an even-ordinal gear position is effected by disengaging an engaged clutch and engaging a disengaged clutch. During the normal operation with a fixed gear position, the clutch being in the disengaged condition is supplied with a minute oil pressure toward the clutch engaging side, whereby the clutch is moved by a minute amount toward the clutch engaging side.
