  • Publication number: 20230173910
    Abstract: A hybrid transmission (18) for a motor vehicle drive train (12) of a motor vehicle (10) includes: a first transmission input shaft (24) for operatively connecting the hybrid transmission to an internal combustion engine (16); a second transmission input shaft (26) for operatively connecting the hybrid transmission to a first electric prime mover (14); an output shaft (28) for operatively connecting the hybrid transmission to a drive output (32); a planetary gear set (RS) connected to the second transmission input shaft and to the output shaft; spur gear pairs (ST1, ST2, ST3) arranged in multiple gear set planes for forming gear steps; and a plurality of gear change devices with shift elements (A, B, C, D, E, F) for engaging gear steps. The output shaft is of a countershaft design, and the planetary gear set is interlockable when decoupled from the first transmission input shaft.

  • Publication number: 20230121971
    Abstract: A hybrid transmission arrangement for a motor vehicle (30) includes a first transmission group (12), a second transmission group (18), a third planetary gear set (PS3), and a first electric machine (EM1). The first transmission group (12) includes a first input (14), a first output (16), and a first planetary gear set (PS1). The first input (14) is connectable to an internal combustion engine (VM). The second transmission group (18) includes a second input (20), a second output (22), and a second planetary gear set (PS2). The second input (20) is connected to the first output (16) of the first transmission group (12). The third planetary gear set (PS3) includes a first element (S3;H3I), a second element (H3;S3I), and a third element (P3;P3I). The third planetary gear set (PS3) is interlockable using a first shift element (E) and arranged coaxially to a first axis (A1). The first element (S3;H3I) is connected to the first electric machine. The second element (H3;S3I) is connected to the second output (22).

    Abstract: A hybrid transmission arrangement (10) for a motor vehicle (30) includes a transmission (11), a third planetary gear set (PS3), and a first electric machine (EM1). The transmission (11) includes a first input (14), which is connectable to an internal combustion engine (VM), a second output (22), a third output (23), and at least one planetary gear set (PS1, PS2). The third planetary gear set (PS3) includes a first element (S3;H3?), a second element (H3;S3?), and a third element (P3;P3?). The third planetary gear set (PS3) is interlockable using a first shift element (E) and arranged coaxially to a first axis (A1). The first element (S3;H3?) is connected to the first electric machine. The second element (H3;S3?) is connected to the second output (22) of the transmission (11). The third output (23) of the transmission (11) is connected to the first element (S3;H3?). The third element (P3;P3?) is connected to a drive output (Ab) of the hybrid transmission arrangement (10).

  • Publication number: 20220383736
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for estimating coverage of the field of traffic scenarios includes providing various traffic scenarios, classifying and/or clustering the traffic scenarios into known or unknown traffic scenarios, using a statistical process on the classified and/or clustered traffic scenarios for estimating predefined classification numbers that describe the coverage of the fields of traffic scenarios, and generating other traffic scenarios or termination of the method, depending on the classification numbers.
