Title:
DRIVE DEVICE FOR VEHICLE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2008/020502
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A drive device for a vehicle, constructed from an engine, a generator/motor, a
battery, and a power generation device. The engine produces drive force for the
vehicle. The generator/motor is connected to the output shaft of the engine and
also to a drive wheel. The power generation device generates electric power by
using combustion exhaust gas of the engine, and the generated power is accumulated in
the battery. When the output of the engine is below the output required to drive the
vehicle, the generator/motor receives electric power from the battery and assists
the output of the engine. When the vehicle is braked and when the output of the
engine is above the output required to drive the vehicle, electric power is generated
by the generator/motor and the generated power is charged in the battery.
