  • Publication number: 20230116887
    Abstract: A venting device for a motor vehicle drive component is provided with an air feed device which has an air guiding region, by way of which the air feed device can be connected in a fluid-conducting manner to an interior chamber to be vented, and with a membrane vent which has a venting membrane which is permeable to water vapor in a first flow direction and which is impermeable to water vapor in a second flow direction. The membrane vent is connected at least temporarily in a fluid-conducting manner to the air guiding region, wherein an inlet air direction is directed through an imaginary flow direction out of the surroundings which surround the venting device, through the venting membrane and to the air guiding region, and wherein the venting membrane is arranged in an air guide housing such that it is impermeable to water vapor in the inlet air direction. An inlet air shut-off valve is arranged downstream of the venting membrane and upstream of the air guiding region in the inlet air direction.

  • Patent number: 10305347
    Abstract: A drive arrangement for an electrically driven vehicle includes an electric motor that is configured to accelerate the vehicle, the electric motor has a rotor, which is arranged inside a stator having stator windings and is arranged on a rotor shaft. The drive arrangement also includes a drive shaft coupled to a drive wheel of the vehicle, and a shaft coupling that transmits torque output by the rotor shaft such that said torque is conducted to the drive shaft, wherein the shaft coupling has a torque receiving element that receives the torque output by the electric motor, and a torque output element that is mechanically coupled to the torque receiving element and outputs the torque in a direction of the drive shaft. An electrically insulating grease is arranged between the torque receiving element and the torque output element.

  • Publication number: 20160223082
    Abstract: A parking lock for motor vehicles includes an activation device with a shaft for coupling to an actuator. The shaft is pivotable about an activation axis between an activation position and a release position. A latching system is coupled to the activation device and has a latch pivotable about the activation axis between a latching position and an unlatching position. A pawl is pivotable about a pawl bearing axis between a locking position and a release position, and a parking lock gearwheel is rotatable about a parking lock axis and coupled to a motor vehicle wheel.

  • Patent number: 5638720
    Abstract: An arrangement for damping vibrations in a vehicle transmission shifting system in which the shift rod between the gear shift lever and the shifting transmission is divided into two parts. The two partial sections are connected with one another by way of a hinge and a support bearing. The support bearing has play and is provided with an elastic layer to effectively dampen vibrations occurring perpendicularly with respect to the longitudinal axis of the rod.
