    Abstract: A vehicle includes an internal combustion engine and a fuel cell for supplying electric vehicle systems. The fuel cell is thermally “coupled” with the internal combustion engine. The waste heat of the internal combustion engine is used for heating the fuel cell, that is, for maintaining the operating temperature of the fuel cell. The fuel cell is arranged directly on the engine where, in the case of conventional vehicles, the transmission is arranged. The transmission is arranged in the area of the rear axle in front of the rear-axle divider transmission.

  • Publication number: 20030015048
    Abstract: A transmission with an essentially unloaded neutral position includes two curved-path carriers each having a curved path and a coupling element configured to engage with the curved paths of the curved-path carriers. The coupling element includes an engaging element which engages with the curved paths of the curved-path carriers. The engaging element is biased by a prestress against the curved path of each of the curved-path carriers in the essentially unloaded neutral position of the transmission.
