| 20130081889 | TWIN ENGINE FOR IMPROVING FUEL EFFICIENCY AND METHOD OF OPERATING ENGINE USING THE SAME - A twin engine improves fuel efficiency in a low-load section and generates sufficient output in a high-load section by selecting a specific bank or operating all of the banks in accordance with necessity of required load. The twin engine may include a plurality of engine banks that independently operates in a unit of a cylinder block equipped with a plurality of cylinders, transmissions that are provided at the same number of engine banks and disposed between output ends of engine banks, a power controller that selectively collects the power output from the output ends of transmissions and transmits the power to driving wheels, and a driving controller that controls the operations of the engine banks and the power controller, such that the engine banks are selectively or simultaneously operated in accordance with traveling conditions. | 04-04-2013 |
| 20080236919 | Electric grid for an electric machine - An electric machine including an engine, generator, and motor. The electric grid is positioned between an input passage and output passage of an exhaust system of the engine. While in retard mode, excess electric power is dumped to the electric grid. Continuous airflow from the engine through the exhaust system removes the energy, in the form of heat, away from the electric grid. | 10-02-2008 |
| 20110203863 | MULTI-POWER OUTPUT DEVICE FOR VEHICLE DRIVING SYSTEMS - The present invention discloses a multi-power output device for vehicle driving systems, which propels a vehicle having at least one wheel and comprises a primary power output device, a primary speed-change device, at least one auxiliary power output device, at least one auxiliary stepless speed-change device and at least two transmission devices. The primary power output device and the at least one auxiliary power output device respectively output driving power. The primary speed-change device, auxiliary stepless speed-change device and the transmission devices are coupled to drive the wheels to rotate and propel the vehicle to move. The present invention uses the primary power output device and the auxiliary power output devices to output driving power and uses the auxiliary stepless speed-change devices and the primary speed-change device to change the rotation speed of the driving power to output severalfold horse power to upgrade the acceleration capability of the vehicle. | 08-25-2011 |
