  • Patent number: 8672109
    Abstract: A narrow double clutch transmission to be mounted in a drive train with a drive unit comprises a clutch part and a transmission part with two sub-transmission units. The clutch part has one input hub connected with the drive unit and two output hubs, which are connected with two input shafts of two sub-transmission unit respectively. The two sub-transmission unit input shafts are arranged coaxially to each other. At the output side the input hub is connected with a damping mechanism, which is connected with two clutches. The two clutches and the damping mechanism are arranged in a clutch chamber filled with oil, which is sealed floatingly to a clutch cover. The output hub connected with the sub-transmission input shaft is axially supported by the sub-transmission unit input shaft.

  • Publication number: 20110005882
    Abstract: In order to be able to build a double clutch transmission more narrow, the invention proposes a double clutch transmission to be mounted in a drive train with a drive unit, wherein the double clutch transmission comprises a clutch part and a transmission part with two sub-transmission units, wherein the clutch part has one input hub for an operative connection with the drive unit and two output hubs, which are, respectively, operatively connected with the input shaft of a sub-transmission unit, wherein the two sub-transmission unit input shafts are arranged coaxially to each other, wherein on the output side the input hub is operatively connected with a damping mechanism, which—on its side—is operatively connected on the output side with two clutches, and the output hubs are operatively connected, respectively, at the drive end with one of the clutches and wherein both the clutches and also the damping mechanism are arranged in a clutch chamber filled with oil, which is sealed floatingly to a clutch cover, by

  • Publication number: 20100000834
    Abstract: In order to be able to design a connection between a drive side and a transmission side, in particular a damper side, in a drivetrain between a main driveshaft and a torsional vibration damper to be structurally stronger while at the same time having a small installation volume, the invention proposes a drivetrain with a main driveshaft and a torsional vibration damper, wherein the main driveshaft and the torsional vibration damper rotate substantially about a common rotational axis and are connected by means of a connection, wherein the connection can be released in a non-destructible fashion and/or is self-connecting, and wherein a wall is arranged axially between the driveshaft and the torsional vibration damper, which wall is sealed off against the drivetrain by means of a seal, and the drivetrain is characterized in that the connection is arranged radially further remote from the common rotational axis than the seal and than the main driveshaft.
