The invention relates to a method of transmitting power between a shaft of a heat engine and a wheel axle shaft of a hybrid vehicle. The inventive method involves the use of: a power transmission device comprising an electric machine which is connected to (i) the heat engine by means of a clutch and (ii) a wheel axle shaft; and a starting system which is mechanically independent of the electric machine and which is connected to the heat engine. According to the invention, the heat engine is started by applying a torque to the shaft simultaneously using the starting system and the clutch.

Method of transmitting the power of a hybrid vehicle between a heat engine shaft and a wheel axle shaft of the vehicle

According to this method for controlling the coupling and the decoupling of the first and second motors of a parallel hybrid motive power group comprising a first motor driving an input shaft, a second motor, and a coupling/decoupling means motors, maneuverable between an open position and a closed position, the motive power group is controlled so that the rotational speed of the input shaft at the moment of coupling and of decoupling remains unchanged while using a law of control that creates a discontinuity between the torques output to the input shaft when the first and the second motors are decoupled or coupled, selected for compensating for the difference between the inertias produced by the input shaft when the first and the second motors are decoupled or coupled in order to ensure a continuity of the acceleration of the input shaft when coupling or decoupling.

Method for controlling the coupling and the decoupling of two motors of a parallel hybrid motive power group

The invention relates to a method for controlling the coupling and the decoupling of the first motor and of the second motor of a parallel hybrid motive power group comprising a first motor () driving an input shaft () at the entrance of a gear box (), a second motor () and a coupling/decoupling means () of the second motor and of the first motor, maneuverable between an open position and a closed position, for enabling a change with regard to the gearbox when the motor group operates in hybrid mode, according to which the motive power group is controlled for decoupling the second motor and the first motor then changing the ratio of the gear box, and recoupling the second motor and the first motor. The laws of control of the motor group are used in such a manner that during the coupling and the decoupling, the torque set value for the input shaft comprises a discontinuity selected for compensating for the difference between the inertia produced by the input shaft when the second motor is coupled to the first motor and the inertia driven by the first input shaft when the second motor is decoupled from the first motor in order to avoid any sudden variation in acceleration of the input shaft driven by the motor group at the moment of decoupling or coupling.

The invention relates to a method for controlling a coupling device between an input shaft driven by a motor and an output shaft that can transmit a maximum torque according to the position of an actuator of the coupling devicecomplying with a law of behavior of the coupling means according to which: a set value (Cemb,cons) of maximum torque to be transmitted is defined; the actual position (Xemb,mes) of the actuator of the coupling device is measured; a set value (Xemb,cons) is determined for actuating the coupling device and is sent to the actuator of the coupling device, while using a law of behavior of the coupling means obtained by interpolation between a first law of reference of behavior of the coupling means and at least one second law of reference of behavior of the coupling means, and; an auto-adaptation of the law of behavior of the coupling means is carried out for taking into consideration its evolution resulting from the use. The method can be used for controlling the clutch of a drive train of a motor vehicle.

The present invention essentially concerns a method for a motor vehicle speed ratio shift. Said method uses a power transmission device () comprising a traction chain consisting of a heat engine (), a clutch (), an electrical machine (), a gearbox (), and wheels (). The invention is characterized in that, upon shifting, the heat engine () is started before, during or after the torque (CMEL) observable on the shaft () of the electrical machine () is canceled, by means of a starter system () mechanically independent of the electrical machine ().
