A transmission having input and output shafts and planetary gear sets. Each planetary gear set has multiple elements. The input and output shafts and planetary gear sets are designed so torque introduced via the input shaft is distributed to the output shafts in a defined ratio and a sum torque is prevented. An element of a first planetary gear set is rotationally fixed to another element of a second planetary gear set and another element of the second planetary gear set is secured to a rotationally fixed component. A torque vectoring superposition unit has an epicyclic gearing and two switching elements. The epicyclic gearing has four connection shafts. A first connection shaft is rotationally fixed to the linking shaft. A second connection shaft is rotationally fixed to an output shaft of the first planetary gear set. The switching elements secure a third and fourth connection shaft to a fixed component.

A power transmission unit in which an oil pump is arranged without extending a shaft length. In the power transmission unit, an input shaft, a first rotary machine, a differential mechanism, and an output shaft are arranged coaxially. The power transmission unit comprise: a first clutch that engages a first movable member connected to an input element of the differential mechanism with a first engagement section formed on another rotary element; a second clutch that engages a second movable member connected to the output element of the differential mechanism with a second engagement section formed on another rotary element; a drive gear mounted on the input element; a driven gear meshed with the drive gear; and an oil pump connected to the driven gear.

A transmission for an at least partially electrically driven vehicle includes two electric machines which are rotationally driveable in a first direction and in a second direction. The transmission further includes an output shaft at least indirectly operatively connected to the first and second electric machines, a first freewheel clutch that at least indirectly transmits a drive power of the first electric machine to the output shaft with a first ratio when the first electric machine rotates in the first direction, and a second freewheel clutch that at least indirectly transmits the drive power of the first electric machine to the output shaft with a second ratio when the first electric machine rotates in the second direction. Additionally, the transmission includes at least one first gear stage in power flow between the first or second freewheel clutch and the output shaft to rotate the output shaft in a third direction.

A transmission and a vehicle. A first clutch of the transmission is a bidirectional clutch. When the first clutch is disposed on an input shaft, the first clutch is located between a first-stage input gear and a second-stage input gear. When the first clutch is disposed on a countershaft, the first clutch is located between a first-stage output gear and a second-stage output gear. Alternatively, the transmission includes the first clutch and a second clutch that are disposed on the input shaft or the countershaft. A quantity of components in the transmission is reduced, and a structure of the transmission is simplified, to reduce costs of the transmission, and reduce production costs of the vehicle to some extent.
