Multi-axle torque coupling mechanism: BayerRecent Research Landscape

Mechanical power losses and drivetrain instability occur during dynamic torque distribution across multiple axles. These innovations utilize specialized coupling architectures to synchronize drive units and maintain traction control.

What technical problems is Bayer addressing in Multi-axle torque coupling mechanism?

Inefficient inter-axle torque distribution

(32)evidences

Uncoordinated power delivery between axles leads to energy loss and poor traction control. Optimizing this distribution prevents drivetrain wind-up and improves vehicle stability.

Unintended vehicle rollaway risk

(17)evidences

The integration of coupling transmissions with parking lock devices and drive axle control units addresses the risk of uncontrolled movement during stationary or transition states. Preventing mechanical roll-away or unintended kinetic transfer ensures operational safety.

Powertrain packaging constraints

(16)evidences

Limited spatial volume in multi-motor electric vehicles restricts the integration of coaxial drive components. Overcoming these physical dimensions allows for more compact and versatile vehicle architectures.

Parasitic driveline oscillations

(10)evidences

Disruptions in torque delivery during transitions between multiple power sources and gear states. Resolving this ensures seamless acceleration and prevents mechanical shock during mode switching.

Inefficient power distribution synchronization

(9)evidences

Multi-axle and hybrid drive systems often suffer from spatial constraints and mechanical complexity. Reducing the physical footprint of planetary gear sets allows for more compact vehicle architectures.
