Abstract

This hybrid power system incorporates a mechanical type rubber V-belt, continuously-variable transmission (CVT) and chain drives to combine power of the two power sources, a gasoline engine and an electric motor. The system uses four different modes in order to maximize the performance and reduce emissions: electric-motor mode; engine mode; engine/charging mode; and power mode. The main advantages of this new transmission include the use of only one electric motor/generator and the shift of the operating mode accomplished by the mechanical-type clutches for easy control and low cost. Kinematic analyses and design are achieved to obtain the size of each component of this system. A design example is fabricated and tested.
