    摘要: A drive unit includes: a transaxle case that houses a motor, a speed reducer, and a differential mechanism; a power control unit that controls the motor; and a noise filter electrically connected to the motor via the power control unit, the power control unit being integrated with the transaxle case, the motor, the speed reducer, and the differential mechanism being disposed on a same axis inside the transaxle case. Further, the power control unit is separate from the noise filter, and the noise filter is integrated with the transaxle case in a state in which at least a part of the noise filter is disposed in space between the power control unit and the motor.

    摘要: An electric transmission (10) for a motor vehicle drive train (12) with a first electric prime mover (14) and a second electric prime mover (18), includes a first transmission input shaft (30) having a first transmission connection for drivingly connecting the electric transmission to the first electric prime mover, a second transmission input shaft (32) having a second transmission connection for drivingly connecting the electric transmission to the second electric prime mover, a countershaft (36), gearwheel pairs of idler gears (42, 44, 50, 52, 62) and fixed gears (46, 48, 54, 65, 64) for forming gear steps and arranged in multiple gear set planes, a plurality of shift elements (38, 40) for engaging the gear steps, a planetary gear set (22) with a sun gear (24), a planet gear carrier, and a ring gear (28), and a third transmission input shaft (34) drivingly connected to the planet gear carrier of the planetary gear set. The first electric prime mover is drivingly connected to the ring gear of the planetary gear set, and the second electric prime mover is drivingly connected to the sun gear of the planetary gear set.

    摘要: A transmission system for a vehicle includes a first helical pinion gear having a helix angle coupled to a first shaft and configured to receive an input torque. The transmission system includes a second helical pinion gear having a first helix angle coupled to a second shaft and configured to receive the input torque. The second shaft is disposed within the first shaft and rotatable within the first shaft. The transmission system includes a differential assembly having a third helical gear having the first helix angle coupled to the first helical pinion gear, and a fourth helical gear having the helix angle coupled to the second helical pinion gear. The third helical gear and the fourth helical gear are coupled to a differential gear set to drive a first output shaft and a second output shaft associated with the vehicle.

    摘要: An electric axle assembly having dual motors and dual disconnects allowing for selectably disconnecting either one of the motors so that either motor may operate as the primary drive motor. Each of the dual motors is coupled to a layshaft, and each disconnect is positioned between a gear reduction at the output of the motor and a gear reduction connected to the layshaft. The layshaft is coupled to a differential via a clutch and gear set, the gear set providing a two-speed transmission for power delivered from the layshaft to the differential.
