Patent number: 11938824Abstract: A hybrid transmission for a vehicle includes a transmission input shaft extending in a transverse direction, at least one countershaft arranged parallel to the transmission input shaft, a clutch device arranged coaxially with respect to the transmission input shaft and which has at least one clutch, and a differential having a differential input gear. A rotational axis of the differential input gear is arranged parallel to the transmission input shaft. The transmission also includes an electric machine having a rotor with a rotor rotational axis arranged parallel to the transmission input shaft and a transmission control device. As viewed in a longitudinal direction perpendicular to the transverse direction, the differential input gear, the transmission input shaft, and a transmission controller including the transmission control device are arranged in succession in the sequence specified.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2021Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: MERCEDES-BENZ GROUP AGInventors: Martin Dengler, Benjamin Bauer, Jan Becker, Markus Brandenburg, Andreas Ertel, Peter Hahn, Tobias Haerter, Elmar Mueller, Jörg Weigold, Timo Maurer, Preetam Birje

Patent number: 11724610Abstract: A circuit arrangement of a motor vehicle includes a high-voltage battery for storing electrical energy, an electric machine for driving the motor vehicle, a converter via which high-voltage direct current voltage provided by the high-voltage battery is convertible into high-voltage alternating current voltage for operating the electric machine, and a charging connection for providing electrical energy for charging the high-voltage battery. The converter is a three-stage converter having a first switch unit which is assigned to a first phase of the electric machine. The first switch unit has two switch groups connected in series which each have two insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) connected in series, where a connection is disposed between the IGBTs of one of the two switch groups, which connection is electrically connected directly to a line of the charging connection.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2019Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Assignee: Daimler AGInventors: Moritz Haussmann, Christian Kloeffer, Jan Philipp Degel, Joerg Weigold, Urs Boehme, Stefan Haehnlein
