Abstract:
A power transmission set for tractioned axles of vehicles. The power transmission set includes at least one coupling/uncoupling device, a selector unit, a primary shaft, and a secondary shaft. The shafts are interconnected by the selector unit to select and control a type of motor propulsion applied to a tread axle of a vehicle. The shafts cooperatively with the coupling/uncoupling device are configured to provide a configuration in which only a combustion engine is responsible for propulsion; in which only an electric motor provides propulsion; in which both the combustion engine and the electric motor work together to generate torque; or in which the tread axle is uncoupled from the combustion engine and the electric motor and the combustion engine provides power to the electric motor to generate electricity. A vehicle for the transport of cargo and passengers including the power transmission set.
