Abstract:
An electric drive module for transferring torque to wheels of a motor vehicle a planetary gearset having a first member driven by the rotor and a second member. A synchronizer restricts a third member of the planetary gearset from rotation when the electric drive module operates at a first drive ratio. The synchronizer transfers energy from the rotating rotor to the third member during a shift between the first drive ratio and a second drive ratio to match the rotational speeds of the rotor and the second member. A reduction unit includes an input member being driven by the second member and also includes an output member driven at a reduced speed relative to the input member. A differential assembly includes an input driven by the output member, a first differential output driving a first output shaft, and a second differential output driving a second output shaft.

The invention relates to drive systems for motor vehicles, comprising a first electric motor and a second electric motor. The drive systems are characterised in particular by great efficiency. For that purpose the rotor of the first electric motor is either directly connected to an output or can be detachably connected to an output by means of at least one first switch element. Firstly, the rotor of the second electric motor is connected directly or detachably via a switch device to at least one assembly. Secondly, the rotor of the second electric motor is or can be connected either to the central gear of a planetary gear system or to the central gear of a planetary gear system and also via a second switch element detachably to the rotor of the first electric motor. The output is connected to the external gear of the planetary gear system. Between the external gear and the central gear of the planetary gear system there is at least one planet gear. Furthermore, the planet carrier of the planetary gear system can be detachably connected to a fixed part via a control unit.
