Hybrid Planetary Gear Set Trainer

Product Description

Hybrid Planetary Gear Set Trainer

The Hybrid Planetary Gear Set Trainer is designed to help instructors teach and students to understand the somewhat complex operation of a typical hybrid vehicle drivetrain. Based on a typical Toyota Prius hybrid vehicle, the trainer provides easy visualization of driveline component operation including:

• ICE (Internal Combustion Engine)
• MG1 (Motor/generator # 1)
• MG2 (Motor/generator # 2)
• Drive wheels

Advantages of Hybrid Planetary Gear Set Trainer

• Clearly demonstrates the operation of ICE, MG1, MG2 and Drive wheels in all vehicle modes.
• Students are required to be part of the driveline operation by turning hand cranks or holding devices which increases their engagement and involvement.
• Trainer provides a significant educational tool that clearly demonstrates the complex operation of a hybrid drivetrain using a power split device.
• Makes all major hybrid drivetrain components clearly visible which are normally not accessible in the vehicle.
