  • Publication number: 20230179046
    Abstract: A method for producing a rotor includes providing lamella elements and arranging the lamella elements to form a lamella bundle where the lamella bundle has webs. End plates are arranged at respective end faces of the lamella bundle where the end plates axially support the lamella bundle. The lamella bundle is axially fixed or pretensioned by winding conductor material around the webs and a rotor shaft is arranged in the fixed or pretensioned lamella bundle.

  • Patent number: 10569637
    Abstract: A drive system for a hybrid vehicle having an internal combustion engine includes an electric motor and a clutch device which has a frictional locking element and a positive locking element that is connected parallel to the frictional locking element. The clutch device is configured to couple the internal combustion engine into the drive system and to be switched into at least the following states: a) open positive locking element and closed frictional locking element when starting and/or synchronization of the internal combustion engine, b) closed positive locking element and closed frictional locking element or closed positive locking element and open frictional locking element when the internal combustion engine is running and synchronized such that an internal combustion engine drive output action is generated, and c) open positive locking element and open frictional locking element when the internal combustion engine is stopped such that purely electric motor drive of the vehicle is provided.
