Abstract: A system for selectively locking two coaxial axle shafts of an electric axle is provided. The system includes a first electric motor having a first rotor shaft configured to drive a first axle shaft. The system also includes a second electric motor having a second rotor shaft configured to drive a second axle shaft coaxial with the first axle shaft. An actuator is configured to selectively activate to operate in a safety mode. When operated to assume the safety mode, the actuator causes the first rotor shaft to lock to the second rotor shaft, such that the two shafts rotate in unison. This allows one of the two motors to drive both axle shafts in the event of a fault in one of the motors.

Abstract: A power transmission device includes an electric motor, and a torque converter connected to the electric motor to transmit torque. A torque converter characteristic line is determined based on a capacity coefficient of the torque converter and indicates torque of the torque converter relative to each rotational speed of the torque converter. An electric motor characteristic line indicates a maximum output torque of the electric motor relative to each rotational speed of the electric motor. A first range corresponds to a range equal to and greater than a base rotational speed of the electric motor and equal to or less than a first average rotational speed, which is an average of the base rotational speed and a maximum rotational speed of the electric motor. The capacity coefficient is such that the characteristic line for the torque converter intersects the characteristic line for the electric motor in the first range.
