SYSTEMS FOR A TRANSMISSION SYSTEM
Systems are provided for a drivetrain. In one example, a system includes a first electric motor configured to provide a first power to a power take-off (PTO) and a drive axle via a first two-speed gear arrangement, a second electric motor configured to provide a second power to the drive axle via a second two-speed gear arrangement, and a controller including computer-readable instructions stored on non-transitory memory thereof that when executed enable the controller to adjust the first power of the first electric motor based on the second power.
1 . A system, comprising:
a first electric motor configured to provide a first power to a power take-off (PTO) and a drive axle via a first two-speed gear arrangement;
a second electric motor configured to provide a second power to the drive axle via a second two-speed gear arrangement; and
a controller including computer-readable instructions stored on non-transitory memory thereof that when executed enable the controller to:
adjust the first power of the first electric motor based on the second power.
2 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the PTO is permanently coupled to the shaft of the first electric motor.
3 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the PTO is permanently coupled to a gear of the first two-speed gear arrangement.
4 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the PTO drives a pump of a hydraulic circuit.
5 . The system of claim 4 , wherein the hydraulic circuit comprises an accumulator.
6 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the first electric motor and the second electric motor are identical.
7 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the PTO is coupled to only the first electric motor.
8 . A drivetrain, comprising:
a first electric motor configured to provide a first power to a power take-off (PTO) and to a drive axle via a first two-speed gear arrangement, wherein a first clutch is configured to engage or disengage the first two-speed gear arrangement from the first electric motor;
a second electric motor configured to provide a second power to the drive axle via a second two-speed gear arrangement, wherein a second clutch is configured to engage or disengage the second two-speed gear arrangement from the second electric motor; and
a controller including computer-readable instructions stored on non-transitory memory thereof that when executed enable the controller to:
adjust the first power of the first electric motor based on operation of a vehicle comprising the drivetrain.
9 . The drivetrain of claim 8 , wherein the first clutch and the second clutch are dog clutches.
10 . The drivetrain of claim 8 , wherein reduction ratios of the first two-speed gear arrangement are identical to reduction ratios of the second two-speed gear arrangement.
11 . The drivetrain of claim 8 , wherein the PTO is coupled to a PTO shaft, wherein a PTO gear is meshed with the PTO shaft and a gear of the first two-speed gear arrangement.
12 . The drivetrain of claim 8 , wherein the PTO operates a pump of a hydraulic circuit.
13 . The drivetrain of claim 12 , wherein the hydraulic circuit comprises a pressure accumulator and an actuator configured to operate an accessory device.
14 . The drivetrain of claim 8 , wherein the drive axle is coupled to wheels of an off-highway vehicle.
15 . The drivetrain of claim 8 , wherein the first power delivered by the first motor and the second power delivered by the second motor are equal percentages of the total power of the first electric motor and of the second electric motor, respectively.
16 . A system of a vehicle, comprising:
a first electric motor configured to provide a first power to a power take-off (PTO) and a drive axle via a first two-speed gear arrangement, wherein a first clutch is configured to engage or disengage the first two-speed gear arrangement from the first electric motor;
a second electric motor configured to provide a second power to the drive axle via a second two-speed gear arrangement, wherein a second clutch is configured to engage or disengage the second two-speed gear arrangement from the second electric motor;
a hydraulic circuit comprising a pump coupled to the PTO; and
a controller including computer-readable instructions stored on non-transitory memory thereof that when executed enable the controller to:
adjust the first power of the first electric motor based on operation of the vehicle.
17 . The system of claim 16 , wherein each shaft of the system is parallel and not coaxial to all the other shafts of the system.
18 . The system of claim 16 , wherein gears of the first two-speed gear arrangement and the second two-speed gear arrangement are helix gears or spur gears.
19 . The system of claim 16 , wherein the first electric motor supplies power to the PTO during all active operating conditions of the first electric motor.
20 . The system of claim 16 , wherein the pump is configured to adjust a pressure of the hydraulic circuit.
