Core Products/Technology
1. Product name: The key technology of 2-speed automatic transmission with power shifting for new energy vehicles
2. Technical description:
The key technologies of 2-speed powershift automatic transmissions for new energy vehicles include the transmission scheme optimization technology and the design technology to integrate electromechanical hydraulic systems, the design technology for the optimization of high-speed, high-ratio automatic transmissions, and the manufacturing technology of key parts that collaborative power shift control and intelligent adaptive control technology of new energy vehicles, vehicle adaptation and calibration technology for two-speed electric powertrain assemblies. Six core technologies, such as mass production process and powershift two-speed transmission offline test technology, can optimize the first and second gear ratios, reduce engine torque demand, optimize NVH performance, reduce transmission noise and engine system noise, realize seamless shifting by clutch control, and drive more comfortably . It can consider the two working conditions of the low-efficiency range and the high-efficiency range of the motor, so that the motor can work more in the high-efficiency range to reduce loss and improve endurance performance.
3. Unique Benefits:
This technology can help improve the target vehicle’s NVH performance, climbing performance, ride comfort, vehicle mileage, vehicle noise reduction, cost, 2%~5% energy saving, 0.3~0 energy saving, 75 degrees of energy per hundred kilometers and other advantages to improve. When the use of this technology product reaches 500,000 units in the market, it can save 150,000-375,000 degrees of energy per year. It can indirectly reduce coal consumption and save a lot of non-renewable energy.
