  • Patent number: 11938807
    Abstract: A device cools a power train of a vehicle including an electric machine with a wound rotor coupled to a speed reducer. The device includes: an oil cooling circuit for cooling the electric machine, the circuit include a heat exchanger connected to an oil tank and a water circuit that connects members of the power train through the radiator of the vehicle; a temperature adjuster of the oil flow supplied at the outlet of the exchanger to a distribution circuit projecting the oil to elements for heating the electric machine; a circuit for lubricating the reducer, the circuit including a sump, the bottom of the sump forming a reserve of oil for lubricating the reducer; and a bypass channel at the outlet of the exchanger, for conveying a portion of the temperature-adjusted oil in contact with the bottom of the sump in order to cool the oil reserve.

  • Publication number: 20210268893
    Abstract: An electric machine for an electric or hybrid motor vehicle includes a cooling system suitable for spraying a dielectric heat transfer fluid onto active parts of the machine and a reservoir for collecting, by gravity, the fluid flowing through an orifice in a wall separating the active parts and the reservoir. The machine also includes, at the orifice, a flap attached to the wall and suitable for closing the orifice, a resilient device to open the flap under the effect of gravity on the liquid, and a non-return device to hold the flap closed when a force exerted on the fluid in the reservoir brings the liquid against the flap.
