Abstract: A device for a vehicle drive train for generating and transmitting drive torque to components of the drive train. The device comprises a shaft which is connected to the components of the drive train, at least first and second bearings which support the shaft and an electric motor for generating the transmitted drive torque. The electric motor comprises a stator and a rotor which is fixed to the shaft. The rotor is supported by one or more bearing surfaces. The device also comprises elements disposed on the shaft via which drive torque can be transmitted to the components of the drive train while introducing transverse force into the shaft. The rotor of the drive motor is positioned on the shaft such that the bearing surface is located in the region of maximum deflection caused by the transverse force in the shaft.

Abstract: A multi-step transmission having at least a reverse drive gear, several forward drive gears, a main shaft (1) and two counter shafts. The power flow in forward drive can be split up and be distributed to both counter shafts and further transferred to the main shaft (1). The forward drive gears each include two counter shaft gears and one idle gear which is supported on the main shaft (1). In contrast, only one of the two counter shafts (2) is assigned and associated with a reverse gear (3) such that the flow of power, in a reverse drive gear (3), is transferred through a single counter shaft (2).

Abstract: A manual transmission having an input shaft whose rotation is transmitted to an output shaft by a selected set of gearwheel pairs, which include gearwheels that are positioned on common axes at an angle to one another. The gearwheel pairs each comprise at least one cone-shaped gearwheel. Rotational direction reversal of the output shaft can be produced, upon actuation of a clutch, by an intermediate wheel which is positioned to one side of the arrangement axes and which engages a mating gear located on the driving side and one located on the driven side. At least one of the mating gears is conical and the intermediate wheel is cylindrical and arranged relative to the mating gears such that a rotational axis of the intermediate wheel is parallel to the lines of contact with the mating gears. The rotational axes of the intermediate wheel and each mating gear intersecting at a common point.

Abstract: A drive train for a motor vehicle which comprises of at least a rotatable drive shaft (3) and an electric motor (10) which has an enclosure mounted stator (11) and a rotatable rotor (12) which is coupled with the drive shaft (3). The rotor (12) is designed as at least a two part rotor in which the first rotor part (12A) is directly coupled with the drive shaft (3) and the second rotor part (12B) can be directly driven by the stator (11) and the first rotor part (12A) is tiltable coupled with the second rotor part (12B) for a torque transfer. The second rotor part (12B) is supported, for rotation, by an enclosure mounted rotor bearing (13) which is aligned with reference to the stator (11).
