  • Vehicle transmission
    Patent number: 11674591
    Abstract: A transmission for a motor vehicle includes an electric motor and a flexible traction drive mechanism which includes a first traction mechanism wheel, such as, a gear or pulley, which is rotationally fixed to a rotor shaft of the electric motor, a second traction mechanism wheel which can be rotationally fixed to a transmission component and which is drivingly connected to the first traction mechanism wheel by a traction mechanism, such as, a belt or chain, and a bearing journal for supporting the first traction mechanism wheel. An oil line extends through the bearing journal, and oil can be fed to the electric motor via the oil line.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 29, 2021
    Date of Patent: June 13, 2023

  • Traction drive for a motor vehicle transmission
    Patent number: 11199231
    Abstract: A flexible traction drive mechanism for a motor vehicle transmission includes a first traction mechanism wheel which can be rotationally fixed to a first transmission component, a second traction mechanism wheel which is drivingly connected to the first traction mechanism wheel by a traction mechanism and can be rotationally fixed to a second transmission component, and a bearing journal for supporting the first traction mechanism wheel. The first traction mechanism wheel is arranged so as to be axially movable relative to the bearing journal.
