Parking lock for a transmission of an electric or hybrid vehicle
A parking lock for a transmission of an electric or hybrid vehicle is disclosed. The parking lock includes a lock device including an actuatable actuating element and a setting element adjustable between a deployed position and a retracted position. The locking device is configured such that, in response to repeated actuation of the actuating element, the setting element is, via a coupling mechanism, adjusted alternately between the retracted position and the deployed position. A camshaft is provided with a cam arranged on the camshaft that is connected in terms of drive to the lock device. A ratchet wheel is provided with a pawl that is adjustable between an engagement position, where the pawl blocks a rotation of the ratchet wheel, and a release position, where the blocking of the ratchet wheel is released. The setting element adjusts the pawl between the engagement position and the release position.
POWER TRANSMISSION DEVICE
A power transmission device, includes a motor; a gear mechanism connected downstream of the motor; a pump that sucks oil through a pump inlet; and a box that accommodates the motor and the gear mechanism. The pump inlet is provided on an inner wall of the box.
POWER TRANSMISSION DEVICE
A power transmission device includes a motor, a gear mechanism connected downstream of the motor; and a pump that sucks oil through a pump inlet. A shortest distance between an open end of the pump inlet and a surface of a stator of the motor is shorter than a shortest distance between the open end of the pump inlet and a surface of the gear mechanism.
TRANSMISSION OIL FILTER ASSEMBLY
A transmission filter includes two outlets. One outlet, adapted to feed an engine-driven pump, protrudes diagonally from the front of the filter. The first outlet is sealed to the inlet of the engine-driven pump by a radial seal. The second outlet is arranged in a rear extension and is sealed to the inlet of an electric pump by a compression seal. The differing types of seals and relative orientations of the outlets make the assembly less sensitive to dimension variation due to production and assembly tolerances. The relative locations of the outlets also mitigate any flow interactions between the pumps when both operate simultaneously.
FLUID DELIVERY SYSTEM COMPRISING A SEPARATE FILTER MODULE
A fluid delivery system for supplying fluid to at least one machine assembly, in particular an engine and/or transmission of a motor vehicle, including: a first pump and a second pump; a drive for driving the first pump and/or the second pump; a reservoir for storing the fluid; and a filter module for filtering the fluid, wherein the first pump delivers fluid from the reservoir to the machine assembly in a supply flow and the second pump is arranged downstream of the machine assembly and delivers at least some of the fluid into the reservoir in a sub-flow downstream of the machine assembly and the filter module is embodied in the sub-flow.
FLUID DELIVERY SYSTEM FOR SUPPLYING FLUID TO A MACHINE ASSEMBLY
A fluid delivery system for supplying fluid to a machine assembly includes: a pump module; a drive for the pump module; and a housing which includes a reservoir for the fluid. The reservoir includes an aspiration point, and the pump module includes a first inlet, a second inlet, a first outlet and a second outlet. The first inlet is fluidically connected to the reservoir via a first suction conduit, and the first outlet is fluidically connected to the machine assembly via a first pressure conduit. The second inlet is fluidically connected to the housing via a second suction conduit, and the second outlet is fluidically connected to the reservoir via a second pressure conduit.
Planetary gear box and method for operating a planetary gear box and gas turbine engine having at least two central shafts and having a planetary gear box
A planetary gearbox of a gas turbine engine has a planet gear which, via a bearing, is arranged rotatably on a planet pin of a rotatable planet carrier. Oil is introduced through an opening, arranged radially within the bearing, into an oil feed which is open at a feed side and which is connected to the bearing and rotationally joined to the carrier. As the carrier rotates, the oil downstream of the opening is conducted toward the bearing unit by centrifugal force. The open oil feed is, between the opening and the bearing, configured an oil filter through which the oil is conducted. The filter extends counter to the flow direction of the oil from the opening in the direction of the bearing unit, in a flow direction of the oil in the open oil feed.
Suction oil filter for a transmission or combustion engine
A suction oil filter for a transmission or combustion engine including an oil filter housing made of plastic and having at least one suction channel that can be connected to a suction side of a suction pump and at least one return channel feeding into the suction channel for a pressurized oil flow returned by the suction pump. The return channel is provided with at least one nozzle in the region of the opening thereof into the suction channel, as well as at least one pressurized oil supply pipe which is linked to the return channel and can be connected to a pressure side of the suction pump, and which is connected to the oil filter housing via at least one contour connection.
Electric drive module configured as a beam axle
An electrically-operated electric drive module for use in a vehicle framework that is configured for a powertrain that includes an internal combustion engine. The electrically-operated electric drive module permits the vehicle to be converted to an electrically propelled vehicle in a manner that is cost-effective and which is relatively low in weight.
Flow control elements and fluid apparatus including the same
Flow control elements (FCEs) and fluid apparatus including the same are described. In embodiments the flow control elements (FCE) include a body that includes a front side, a back side, a left side, and a right side. The body further includes a base region, an upper region, and an intermediate region between the base region and the upper region. The FCE is configured to move in response to a fluid flow (or, more specifically, a pressure differential across the FCE) to regulate a flow of fluid past the FCE. In embodiments the FCE is included in a fluid apparatus for a vehicle, such as but not limited to a suction filter for a vehicle transmission.
