Abstract: A motor vehicle transmission for coupling an electric machine to a drivetrain of an electrically driveable motor vehicle. The motor vehicle transmission includes a planetary transmission for converting a torque that is introducible by the electric machine. An internal gear of the planetary transmission has an input toothed gear for forming a spur gear stage with a drive shaft of the electric machine. A brake immobilizes a sun gear of the planetary transmission with a static housing. A clutch rotationally conjointly connects the sun gear to the internal gear. The brake and the clutch at least partially overlap as viewed in a radial or axial direction. By virtue of the overlap, it is possible for axial and radial structural space, respectively, to be saved, such that a motor vehicle transmission with a small structural space requirement is made possible.

Abstract: A method for “hands-on” identification on a steering system having two subsystems connected to one another by an elastic connection. The elastic connection has a static friction state and a sliding friction state for a respective set of external state variables. The steering system is excited by an excitation vibration, which is generated by a controllable vibration generator and has a respective excitation amplitude and a respective excitation frequency, for a respective set of external state variables, in which the respective excitation amplitude and the respective excitation frequency for the currently present set of external state variables are taken from a prescribed table and the vibration generator is controlled with them. A reaction torque to the excitation vibration is measured using a sensor. A phase difference between the excitation vibration and the reaction torque is calculated to identify a “hands-off” state as well as a “hands-on” state.
