Abstract

A vehicle is operable in three modes of operation. The vehicle includes a first electromagnetic device, a second electromagnetic device electrically coupled to the first electromagnetic device, and an engine coupled to the first electromagnetic device and configured to drive the first electromagnetic device to provide electrical energy. In each of the three modes of operation, whenever the engine drives the first electromagnetic device to provide the electrical energy, the first electromagnetic device operates without providing the electrical energy to an energy storage device.

Claims (30)

1. A vehicle operable in at least three modes of operation, the vehicle comprising:

a first electromagnetic device;

a second electromagnetic device electrically coupled to the first electromagnetic device; and

an engine configured to drive the first electromagnetic device to provide electrical energy,

wherein, in each of a first mode, a second mode, and a third mode of the at least three modes of operation, whenever the engine drives the first electromagnetic device to provide the electrical energy, the first electromagnetic device operates without providing the electrical energy to an energy storage device.

2. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the at least three modes of operation include a fourth mode of operation.

3. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein an electrical power transmission system of the vehicle directs the electrical energy provided by the first electromagnetic device to the second electromagnetic device to power the second electromagnetic device.

4. The vehicle of claim 1 , further comprising a drive axle coupled to the second electromagnetic device, wherein the second electromagnetic device is configured to drive the drive axle to propel the vehicle.

5. The vehicle of claim 4 , wherein the second electromagnetic device is configured to apply a braking torque to the drive axle and provide electrical energy.

6. The vehicle of claim 5 , wherein an electrical power transmission system of the vehicle directs the electrical energy provided by the second electromagnetic device to the first electromagnetic device to power the first electromagnetic device.

7. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the first electromagnetic device never provides the electrical energy to the energy storage device.

8. The vehicle of claim 1 , further comprising a transmission coupling the first electromagnetic device to the second electromagnetic device.

9. The vehicle of claim 8 , further comprising a drive axle configured to propel the vehicle, wherein the transmission couples the first electromagnetic device to the drive axle.

10. The vehicle of claim 1 , further comprising a transmission coupling the engine to the second electromagnetic device.

11. A vehicle operable in at least three modes of operation, the vehicle comprising:

a generator, and

an engine configured to drive the generator to provide electrical energy,

wherein, in each of a first mode, a second mode, and a third mode of the at least three modes of operation, whenever the engine drives the generator to provide the electrical energy, the generator operates without providing the electrical energy to an energy storage device.

12. The vehicle of claim 11 , further comprising an electrical load electrically coupled to the generator.

13. The vehicle of claim 12 , wherein an electrical power transmission system of the vehicle directs the electrical energy provided by the generator to the electrical load.

14. The vehicle of claim 13 , wherein the generator is a first generator, and wherein the electrical load is a second generator.

15. The vehicle of claim 14 , further comprising a drive axle coupled to the second generator, wherein the second generator is configured to drive the drive axle to propel the vehicle.

16. The vehicle of claim 11 , wherein the vehicle is further operable in a fourth mode of operation in which the generator operates as a motor to drive a load.

17. A drive train for a vehicle operable in at least three modes of operation, the drive train comprising:

an electromagnetic device; and

an engine configured to drive the first electromagnetic device to provide electrical energy,

wherein, if the engine drives the electromagnetic device to provide the electrical energy in any of a first mode, a second mode, and a third mode of the at least three modes of operation, the electromagnetic device operates without providing the electrical energy to an energy storage device.

18. The drive train of claim 17 , wherein the electromagnetic device is a first electromagnetic device, and wherein the drive train further comprises a second electromagnetic device electrically coupled to the first electromagnetic device.

19. The drive train of claim 18 , wherein an electrical power transmission system of the vehicle directs the electrical energy provided by the first electromagnetic device to the second electromagnetic device to power the second electromagnetic device.

20. The drive train of claim 18 , wherein the first electromagnetic device never provides the electrical energy to the energy storage device.
