Device for transferring mechanical energy of e.g. electromotor to drive shaft of hybrid motor car, has controller for producing coupling when velocities of storage element, first and second movable elements are identical

摘要

The device has first transmission element i.e. clutch (122), for coupling first movable element i.e. input shaft (100) of a power source with a storage element i.e. oscillator (120). Second transmission element i.e. clutch (124), is operable to couple second movable element i.e. output shaft (102), with the storage element. A controller (126) controls the transmission elements to produce alternating coupling of first and second movable elements with the storage element. The controller produces the coupling when velocities of the storage element and the movable elements are identical. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a method for transferring mechanical energy of a power source to an energy receiver (2) a computer program with set of instructions to perform a method for transferring mechanical energy of a power source to an energy receiver.
