Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problems wherein the weight is heavy, cost is high, and hence a hybrid engine has not become widespread to general public at large, even though problems related to environment and energy are serious and urgent, and especially, engines are used in automobiles and various industries and an improvement in fuel economy is important, and hybridization of the engine is regarded as one of the most important challenges. <P>SOLUTION: Components usable in common are integrated, and the engine itself is hybridized, thus increasing gas mileage, reducing weight and the cost, so that the engine can be used for all purposes, such as four-cycle, two-cycle, and diesel engines. Here, the distance between a magnet and a coil for reducing resistance by magnetic force can be adjusted, as required. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI

Description

  The present invention relates to hybridizing an engine.

  In a conventional automobile engine or the like, as shown in FIG. 3, a flywheel 1, a cell motor 3, and a generator 4 are separately attached.

However, according to the above technique, the number of parts is large, and the efficiency is low in terms of weight, assembly work, and maintenance. Furthermore, when the motor for driving is separately installed and hybridized, the above efficiency is considered to deteriorate.
Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a hybrid engine that is more efficient, can be further reduced in weight, and has excellent fuel efficiency.

In order to solve the above problems, a first invention is a hybrid engine characterized by integrating a cell motor, a motor for traveling, and a generator into a conventional engine or the like.
The second invention is a hybrid engine characterized by integrating a flywheel, a cell motor, a motor for traveling, and a generator.
The third invention is characterized in that the distance between the magnet and the coil can be adjusted as necessary in order to reduce the resistance due to the magnetic force generated when the flywheel and the cell motor, the motor for traveling, and the generator are integrated. This is a hybrid engine.

According to the first invention, the integration of the cell motor, the motor for driving, and the generator eliminates energy transmission loss, reduces the number of parts, and reduces the weight, assembly work, maintenance, and fuel efficiency. I can do it.
Moreover, the required power can be obtained with an engine having a smaller displacement.
According to the second invention, the flywheel, the cell motor, the driving motor, and the generator are integrated to eliminate energy transmission loss, reduce the number of parts, reduce the weight, assembling work, maintenance, and fuel efficiency. Can be raised.
Moreover, the required power can be obtained with an engine having a smaller displacement.
According to the third aspect of the invention, when only the engine is used, such as when traveling at a constant speed, resistance due to magnetic force can be reduced, and fuel efficiency can be improved.
Depending on the state of charge of the battery, the distance between the magnet and the coil can be kept moderate to adjust the amount of power generation to reduce the load on the engine and increase the fuel efficiency.

One embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIGS.
FIG. 1 shows that a portion corresponding to the flywheel 1 of a conventional engine is used as a motor for starting an engine, a motor for starting and accelerating as a flywheel-integrated generator motor 5, and for generating power when the engine is decelerated or when the load on the engine is low. Operate as
In FIG. 2a, when used as a motor for starting an engine, a motor for starting and accelerating, decelerating, or operating for power generation, the distance between the magnet 6 and the coil 7 is reduced as necessary.
In FIG. 2b, when only the engine is used, such as when driving at a constant speed, the distance between the magnet 6 and the coil 7 is increased to reduce resistance due to magnetic force.

"Effect of the embodiment"
According to this embodiment, the engine unit can always be rotated in a state of good fuel consumption, and since the flywheel, the cell motor, the driving motor, and the generator can be integrated, the energy transmission loss of that part It is possible to reduce the weight, manufacturing cost, and maintenance.
Moreover, the required power can be obtained with an engine having a smaller displacement.

"Other embodiments"
In the embodiment of FIG. 1, the hybrid engine is a combination of a flywheel, a motor, and a generator. However, in another embodiment, the flywheel and the motor, and the flywheel and the generator may be attached.

It is a perspective view showing one embodiment of this invention. It is a figure which shows one Embodiment of this invention. It is a perspective view which shows a prior art.
