A multi-functional electromechanical device is provided. The device includes a first assembly that includes: 1) at least one motor/generator set configured to act as both: i) a motor to provide rotational assistance to an engine to which it is connected by converting electrical energy from an accumulator set to rotational energy, and ii) a generator configured to act to generate electrical energy to run parasitic devices of the engine to which it is connected, to store in an accumulator set, or to act in both of these capacities, using rotational energy provided by the engine or the transmission; and 2) a second assembly that includes: at least one energy distributor configured to: i) use rotational energy provided by at least one motor/generator set to assist an engine to which it is connected or a transmission to which it is connected to rotate, or ii) use rotational energy of an engine or a transmission to which it is connected to provide rotational energy to at least one motor/generator set to convert the rotational energy into electrical energy for use by parasitic devices or for storage in an accumulator set.
A multi-functional electromechanical device including:
A method of moving a vehicle comprising at least one wheel that causes movement of the vehicle when in contact with a surface and wherein the vehicle includes an internal combustion engine and a transmission, the method comprising:
Drive mechanism with one or more planetary gears connected to one or several energy sources of the same or different characteristics, so that each planetary gear has its Sun and/or Carrier and/or Ring connected to one or several energy sources, where one of these sources acts as a regulator of the output revolutions of a planetary gear system, in such a way that they have eligible ratios that are not constant or proportional to the rpm and power input to one or more planetary gear systems, allowing to dose power and regulate revolutions in direct connection to the final shaft of transmission;
Drive mechanism with one or more planetary gears connected to one or several sources of energy, in a non-hybrid motorization system, where a first planetary system will be connected to a specific energy source at a number of revolutions, and at least one second planetary system will be connected to a specific energy source at a different number of revolutions than the first planetary system, where there will also be linked a Sun, and/or Carrier and/or Ring of a first planetary gear with the Sun, and/or Carrier and/or Ring of at least one second planetary gear, in such a way that the first planetary gear can deliver eligible output ratios in power and revolutions, not constant or proportional to the input, and can be directly connected to a final transmission shaft.
Mechanism of planetary gears power dosing and rpm regulator in a drive system, which allows to dispense with a transmission, linking directly at least one motorization with the shaft with final reduction gear or with any other final control system.
Mechanism of planetary gears power dosing and speed regulator in a drive system, which allows that in a hybrid propulsion system, some of the electric motors can alternatively function as a generator or as an engine.
Planetary gear mechanism power dosing and speed regulator in a drive system, binding in a hybrid propulsion system, between some or all of the motors of the system and the shaft with final reduction gear or with any other final control system.
Mechanism of planetary gears, power dosing and rpm regulator in a drive system, which allows to perform in a hybrid system, the recovery of energy in one or more electric machines in decelerations and braking of the vehicle.
Mechanism of planetary gears, power dosing and speed regulator in a hybrid drive system, which allows when the vehicle is stopped or at times when the vehicle does not require energy to continue its displacement, generating energy in one or more electric machines with the possibility of being stored, from the rotational movement of an ICE and/or of any other type of motor and/or of the movement of the shaft with final reduction gear, and/or of any other final control system.
