Patent ID: 7083536

Claim:
A hybrid system with a controllable function of variable speed transmission adopting a plurality of power sources for power transmission by way of a complex combination of the power sources, comprising: at least one first electric power driving device being a primary power source of the system; at least one fuel driving device being a secondary power source of the system and started by combustible fuel; an integrated power assistant device coupled to the fuel driving device selectively operable to start and restart the fuel driving device as needed while the first electric power driving device is providing primary driving power, to generate power responsive to the fuel driving device working, and to assistively and directly augment the driving power of the fuel driving device with additional driving power; at least one automatic clutching device controlling clutching actions of the fuel driving device and the first electric power driving device and located between the fuel driving device and the first electric power driving device; at least one continuously variable transmission device for generating driving actions, the continuously variable transmission further having another power source for actuation thereof, the continuously variable transmission device including a reconfigurable pulley assembly operable responsive to an electromagnetic clutch unit coupled thereto; at least one system-controlling device controlling actions among the first electric power driving device, the fuel driving device, the integrated power assistant device, and the automatic clutching device; and wherein the fuel driving device is disposed between the automatic clutching device and the integrated power assistant device for series connection directly therewith; and, the first electric power driving device is connected to the fuel driving device, the automatic clutching device, and the continuously variable transmission device in series.
