  • Publication number: 20160021796
    Abstract: A control unit for use in the engine compartment or in the transmission of a motor vehicle. The control unit has a line section for an engine or transmission fluid, a circuit carrier, and a base plate. The base body is mounted on the base plate. The circuit carrier is arranged between the base body and the base plate. The base body has a plurality of parallel channels each having a respective outlet. At least one of the plurality of parallel channels forms a portion of the line section. A separate cover is mounted on the base body, the cover having a single inlet coupled to the plurality of parallel channels. The cover is, other than only the inlet, connected to the base body in a fluid-tight manner, and the inlet is the only fluid passage through the cover.

  • Publication number: 20150038284
    Abstract: A planet stage of an epicyclic gearing includes a gearing housing with a ring gear arranged in a fixed position, at least two planet wheels mounted in a planet web that has at least one cheek, and a sun wheel. The planet web is connected to an input shaft, and there is a connection between the input shaft and a component of a further planet stage. The planet stage of the epicyclic gearing, in particular the planet web, has a reduced torsional loading. The reduced torsional loading is achieved in that the connection is a connecting web which is connected to that cheek of the planet web which is acted upon by an admission of load/moment, and is arranged in the region between two planet wheels and within the ring gear.

  • Patent number: 8840508
    Abstract: A planetary gear set with a planet stage revolving in a gear set housing has a planet carrier which is connected in particular to a rotor and has planet web cheeks which are connected to one another by means of webs, and a plurality of planet gears which are mounted in planet gear bearings, which are connected to the planet carrier, and are in engagement on one side with a sun gear and on the other side with a ring gear. The gear set housing is provided with an oil supply channel which is connected to at least one oil-guiding channel in the planet carrier. The lubrication of the meshing engagements is facilitated in the planetary gear set by providing dry sump lubrication. This is achieved in that at least one channel connected to the oil-guiding channel is embedded in each web, said channel being aligned with the meshing engagements between sun gear and planet gear and/or planet gear and ring gear.

  • Publication number: 20140256502
    Abstract: A planetary stage of a planetary gear unit with a gearbox housing includes a ring gear, at least one planet gear, and a sun gear, which are rotatably positioned. The ring gear is connected via a tappet to a sun gear shaft of an upstream planetary gear stage, and is rotatably mounted in the gearbox housing. The planetary gear unit exhibits increased robustness by connecting the ring gear on a side opposite the tappet to a ring gear support that is seated in the gearbox housing.
