ABSTRACT:
A hybrid drive has an internal combustion engine and a motor/generator (M/G) for supplying and absorbing driving forces either alone or in combination. Two one-way devices are assembled between the engine and the M/G. One of these one-way devices permits the M/G to drive the engine at start-up and is released centrifugally at or above engine idle speed. The other one-way device permits the M/G to overrun the engine if the engine is at idle speed during dynamic braking. This permits all the dynamic braking energy of the M/G to be used in a regenerative fashion when battery charging is necessary.
