An assembly set for transmission devices for motor vehicles. Each of the transmission devices has an input shaft which can be operatively connected to a drive device of the motor vehicle, as well as a first output shaft, and a second output shaft, and has a spur gear differential transmission designed as a planetary transmission, via which the input shaft and an intermediate shaft that is coupled or can be coupled to an electric machine arranged coaxially to the input shaft are coupled to the first output shaft and the second output shaft. The electric machine is coupled to the input shaft in a first shift position of a shift device and to the intermediate shaft in a second shift position of the shift device.

A power system for a vehicle comprising: a first engine, a second motor/generator, and a third motor/generator. The system further comprising: a first gearset with a first power train section coupled to an input side of the first gearset and a second power train section coupled to an output side of the first gearset. A mode selection device comprising at least two positions: a first position of the mode selection device coupling the third motor/generator to the first power train section, and a second position coupling third motor/generator to the second power train section. A clutch selectively connecting the first machine and the first power train section.

A rotary actuator is provided which includes a prime mover including a rotor and a stator; a front-end star compound gear equipped with a first pinion, a first plurality of star gears arrayed concentrically around said first pinion, a first clutch, a first clutch shift motor, an output shaft, and first, second and third gears, wherein said third gear is attached to said output shaft; a back-end star compound gear; and a wheel interface including a principal bearing and a brake disk. The first pinion drives said the clutch. The first clutch shift motor shifts the first clutch between a first position in which the first clutch engages the first gear, and a second position in which the first clutch engages the second gear. When the first clutch engages the first gear, the first gear drives the first plurality of star gears. When the first clutch engages the first gear, the first plurality of star gears drive the third gear, or the first clutch engages the third gear to drive the output shaft directly.

A hybrid powertrain apparatus for a vehicle, includes first and second input shafts concentrically provided to selectively receive power of an engine, a planetary gear set including a first rotation element, a second rotation element, and a third rotation element, wherein the first rotation element is connected to the first input shaft and the second rotation element is connected to a first motor, a clutch device configured to fix the remaining rotation element of the planetary gear set or connect the remaining rotation element to the second input shaft, a second motor connected to the second input shaft, and an output gear provided on the second input shaft.
