  • Publication number: 20210277960
    Abstract: A conducting element for conducting a pressurized fluid and for conducting a cooling fluid, as well as a hybrid module and a drive assembly having a hybrid module are provided. The conducting element for conducting a pressurized fluid for hydraulically actuating a clutch unit and for conducting cooling fluid for cooling a clutch unit has a cylindrical section and a securing section. At least one pressurized fluid channel is formed in the securing section for transporting pressurized fluid. The conducting element also has at least one cooling fluid channel which has at least one axial direction component in the cylindrical section, wherein the flow line element is fluidically connected to the cooling fluid channel for supplying a clutch unit and/or electric machine with cooling fluid.

  • Publication number: 20210229544
    Abstract: A multi-clutch device for a hybrid module includes a separating clutch, a dual clutch device, a first pivot bearing, a common rotary part, a second pivot bearing, a gear element, and a clamping device. The separating clutch is for transmitting torque from an internal combustion engine to the multi-clutch device. The dual-clutch device is for transmitting torque to a drivetrain. The dual clutch device includes a first partial clutch and a second partial clutch. The common rotary part is mounted rotatably by the first pivot bearing, and couples the separating clutch, the first partial clutch, and the second partial clutch in a rotationally fixed manner. The gear element is mounted rotatably by the second pivot bearing, and forms a gear between the electrical machine and the multi-clutch device. The clamping device is for clamping the common rotary part and the gear element against each other in the axial direction.

  • Publication number: 20200101831
    Abstract: A hybrid module includes a first, motor-side pre-assembly group and a second, transmission-side pre-assembly group. A separating clutch is arranged between the motor-side pre-assembly group and the transmission-side pre-assembly group, via which the pre-assembly groups can be connected in a torque-transmitting manner.

  • Patent number: 9939065
    Abstract: The invention relates to a piston-cylinder arrangement, in particular a slave cylinder for a hydraulic clutch actuating device, comprising a cylinder housing which is made of a plastic, in which an annular pressure chamber is formed in which a piston is mounted so as to be axially movable for actuation of a clutch release bearing, wherein the inner wall of the pressure chamber forms a guide sleeve. In the case of a piston-cylinder arrangement which stands up to the pressures and temperatures that occur in operation of the clutch actuating device, a stop is situated on the guide sleeve facing the clutch release bearing, the stop being in the form of a threaded connection.

  • Patent number: 8127911
    Abstract: An actuation system for a double clutch. The actuation system has a guide sleeve disposed around transmission input shafts of a double-clutch transmission which is connected downstream and two cylindrical elements which are disposed on the sleeve axially displaceably by an actuator unit, each for actuating the clutches. The cylindrical elements can be displaced independently from each other, are locked into position, and overlap each other.
