| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to a vehicle supercharger assembly (14) comprising a generator comprising a first armature (14) being adapted for permanent drive from a source of motive power; a supercharger impeller (24) arranged to be driven via a gear train; an electric motor comprising a second armature (28), said second armature (28) being coupled to the gear train; a first clutch (32) for selectively coupling the first armature (14) to the gear train for driving the supercharger impeller (24) in a first mode of operation in which the electric motor is operable to adjust the speed of the supercharger impeller (24); and a second clutch (34), operable when said first armature (14) is coupled to the gear train, for selectively locking the gear train so as to prevent relative rotation of the first and second armatures in a second mode of operation. |
