  • Publication number: 20210262556
    Abstract: The invention relates to a powertrain for a fully electric vehicle comprising an electric machine (1), a driven wheel (2) and a gearing (3) that is arranged between the electric machine (1) and the driven wheel (2) and that provides a driving connection there between, which gearing (3) includes at least a first speed reduction stage (31) providing a fixed first speed ratio, a variator unit (40) providing a variable speed ratio and a second speed reduction stage (32) providing a fixed second speed ratio between an input gear wheel (35) and an output gear wheel (36) thereof, whereof the input gear wheel (35) rotates as one with the output shaft of variator unit (40). According to the invention, a maximum overall speed ratio provided by the gearing (3) between the electric machine (1) and the driven wheel (2) amounts to at least 20:1.

  • Patent number: 6255892
    Abstract: The temperature sensor measures temperatures within a defined temperature measuring range. The sensor includes a reference voltage source with an output terminal to which a reference voltage is applied and which is connected to a first input terminal of a comparator. A series circuit of a semiconductor component with temperature-independent current characteristic and a reference component is connected between a first and a second supply voltage terminal. A temperature-dependent voltage is applied to a node common to the semiconductor component and the reference component. The temperature-dependent voltage is fed to a second input terminal of the comparator. The supply voltage is adjustable within a defined supply voltage range and, within a voltage range resulting from the supply voltage range of a voltage across the reference component, the reference component has a voltage-dependent current characteristic.
