Abstract:
A number of variation may include a method that may include providing a drive system that may deliver a torque supply to a vehicle. An electric unit may be provided. The torque supply may be reduced. A torque fill may be initiated when the torque supply is reduced. The torque fill may be supplied from the electric unit.
Abstract:
A number of variations may include a product that may include a power transfer assembly. A gear train may have multiple gears and may provide a first stage gearing that may have a fixed gear ratio. At least one planetary gear set may provide a second stage gearing that may have multiple gear ratios. An electric machine may selectively provide input to the first stage gearing. A differential unit may selectively receive output from the planetary gear set. An engagement mechanism may selectively connect the differential unit with the second stage gearing in each of a high range mode and a low range mode.
Abstract:
A number of variations may include a product comprising an electrical machine operatively connected to a driveline module comprising a gear train having a fixed gear ratio, a first planetary gear set having multiple gear ratios operatively connected to the gear train, a second planetary gear set having a fixed gear ratio operatively connected to the first planetary gear set, and a synchronizer, wherein the synchronizer is operatively connected to the first planetary gear set and is positioned between the first and second planetary gear set; a differential operatively connected to the second planetary gear set; wherein the electrical machine selectively transmits power to the differential through the gear train, the first planetary gear set, the synchronizer, and the second planetary gear set, and wherein the synchronizer is constructed and arranged to shift the driveline module into a high range mode, a low range mode, and a neutral mode.
