HYBRID VEHICLE

To provide a hybrid vehicle that can reduce power loss at the time of travelling when torque of an engine is transmitted to a driving wheel.SOLUTION: A hybrid vehicle is provided with a fly wheel 5, a motor 2 and a power division mechanism 7 whose driving wheel 11 differentially rotates, and is further provided with a locking gear 26, provided to be movable to a lock position where the gear engages with an outer tooth 25 of the fly wheel 5 and to a release position where the engagement with the outer tooth 25 thereof is released, which engages with the outer tooth to make braking torque counteracting to torque of the outer tooth act on the outer tooth, and an actuator 27 that switches the locking gear 26 between the lock position and the release position, which is configured to be able to set a first travelling mode in which the locking gear 26 is moved to the lock position to engage with the outer tooth and a second travelling mode in which the locking gear 26 is moved to the release position to release the engagement with the outer tooth thereof.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】エンジンのトルクを駆動輪に伝達した走行時における動力損失を低減することができるハイブリッド車両を提供する。【解決手段】フライホイール５、モータ２、および駆動輪１１が差動回転する動力分割機構７とを備え、フライホイール５の外歯２５に噛み合うロック位置と、外歯２５との噛み合いが解消された解放位置とに移動可能に設けられるとともに、外歯に噛み合うことにより外歯のトルクに対抗した制動トルクを外歯に作用させるロック用ギヤ２６と、ロック用ギヤ２６をロック位置と解放位置とに切り替えるアクチュエータ２７とを更に備え、ロック用ギヤ２６をロック位置に移動させて外歯に噛み合わせた第１走行モードと、ロック用ギヤ２６を解放位置に移動させて外歯との噛み合いを解消した第２走行モードとを設定可能に構成されている。【選択図】図１
