  • Coupling device and drive train for a motor vehicle
    Patent number: 12584526
    Abstract: A coupling device for coupling and decoupling a drive element with an output element of a drive train for a motor vehicle includes a coupling element, linearly displaceable from a coupling position to a decoupling position, a first latching device for fixing the coupling element in a one of the coupling position or the decoupling position, a first spring element for urging the coupling element into the other one of the coupling position or the decoupling position, and a first actuator arranged to cancel the fixing of the first latching device and to further load the first spring element to displace the coupling element into the other one of the coupling position or the decoupling position. In the coupling position, the coupling element couples the drive element with the output element, and, in the decoupling position, the drive element is decoupled from the output element.
