摘要： A motor resolver assembly includes a resolver stator and a resolver rotor positioned radially inward of and rotatable with respect to the resolver stator. First and second relatively rotatable shield components generally surround the resolver stator and rotor to shield them from electromagnetic energy from a radially outward motor rotor and motor stator. A method of measuring speed and position of the motor rotor relative to the motor stator is also employed.

摘要： A dual path planetary transmission includes two planetary gearsets each having a sun gear member, a ring gear member, and a planet carrier assembly member. Each of the members of the planetary gearsets are selectively connectible between an input shaft, an output drive mechanism, and a stationary member. Each of the planetary gearsets is effective to provide a reverse ratio and five forward gear ratios. The output mechanism of each of the planetary gearsets includes a different gear ratio between the output mechanism and the transmission output shaft.

摘要： A method of operating a hybrid vehicle includes disengaging, i.e., turning off, an internal combustion engine when a brake pedal is disposed in a released position, i.e., non-depressed position, an accelerator pedal is disposed in a released position, i.e., non-depressed position, and a forward path of the hybrid vehicle is blocked, thereby conserving fuel. The method includes engaging, i.e., starting, the internal combustion engine when the brake pedal is disposed in the released position, the accelerator pedal is disposed in the released position, and the forward path of the hybrid vehicle is clear, thereby allowing for a quick launch of the vehicle.
