<p>A turbo compound engine comprising an engine (1) having an output shaft (15) and an exhaust line (4b), a power recovering turbine (12) disposed at the exhaust line (4b), a gear train (100) connecting the power recovering turbine (12) with the output shaft (15) of the engine (1), and a power reversing mechansim (40) including a hydraulic cluthc (51, 51a, 56) provided with the gear train (100), so that energy consumed by the power turbine (12) may serve as braking effort against the vehicle upon swithcing of the power revrersing mechanism (40), and large load may not be applied to the gear train (100) at one occasion by allowing the hydraulic clutch (51, 51a, 56) to slip during a certain period from the switchcing of the power reversing mechanism (40), thereby protecting the drive power transmission system of the vehicle and improving the driveability.</p> |
