A shift-by-wire system comprises an integrated park module including a slider, a motor, a spring, and an actuator system. The slider can be disposed in a park position (PP) and a not-parked position (NPP) corresponding to a park mode and a not-park mode of a transmission, respectively. The motor and a gear-train cause the slider to move from the PP to the NPP and the spring urges the slider from the NPP to the PP. The actuator system retains the slider in the NPP after the motor and the gear-train have disengaged from the slider. The gear-train includes a default position (DP) corresponding to the PP and a maximum lift region (MLR) in which the actuator system retains the slider in the NPP. The gear-train rotates from the MLR to the DP while the actuator system retains the slider in the NPP.

A parking lock device includes a parking lock wheel, a locking pawl moveable between a locked position and an unlocked position, and an operating piston displaceable along a displacement axis. A movement of the locking pawl between the locked position and the unlocked position can be effected. The parking lock device also includes a latch lever pivotable about a pivot axis, and a solenoid by means of which the latch lever can be pivoted from one position to the other position. The pivot axis runs perpendicularly to the displacement axis.

Disclosed is a locking unit having a piston and serving for locking the movement of the piston which can be acted on with pressure of a fluid. The locking unit can additionally have an electromagnet and at least one detent element. The detent element interacts with an armature or an armature rod of the electromagnet, and the piston has at least one detent receptacle, where the piston can be secured by the retaining interaction of the detent element with the detent receptacle. The piston is adjustable between a retracted position and an extended position. The piston is mounted at least partially in a middle piece which is surrounded at least partially by a housing, and the middle piece is configured in two parts from a metal part and a plastic part.

An electromechanical parking lock for a motor vehicle includes a locking element for reversible engagement in a parking lock wheel, an actuating element that can be pre-loaded by an actuating spring in order to insert the locking element into the parking lock wheel, an electric motor with an actuating unit for moving the actuating element out of the locked position (P) against the spring force of the actuating spring into an unlocked position (nP), and a solenoid that, in the unlocked position (nP), holds the actuating element pre-loaded via a securing element. The parking lock has an emergency locking position (Not-P) in which the parking lock is unlocked and in which the securing element can be released by the electric motor without changing the state of the solenoid so that the locked position (P) can be assumed.

A locking arrangement for an electric vehicle, that includes a locking unit, an electric motor, and an axle which is driveable by the electric motor. The locking unit can have a piston and serve for locking the movement of the piston which can be acted on with pressure of a fluid. The locking unit has an electromagnet and at least one detent element, and the detent element interacts with the armature or the armature rod of the electromagnet, and the piston has at least one detent receptacle, and the piston can be secured by the retaining interaction of the detent element with the detent receptacle. The piston can be adjustable between a retracted position and an extended position. The piston can act in at least one of the two positions on the axle in such a manner that the rotation of the axle is mechanically blocked.

A parking lock mechanism of the drum-type transmission device comprises a parking gear that is provided on the transmission shaft, a parking operation arm which is selectively operated between a lock position engaging with the parking gear and an unlock position away from the parking gear, a parking release spring for urging the operation arm toward the unlock position, and a parking pushing member which is positioned at a lock position by pushing the operation arm according to the rotation of the drum member from the shift position or the neutral position to the parking position. One end of the transmission operation shaft is located near the operation arm. At one end of the shift operation shaft, there is provided an arm restraining portion that can urge the operation arm toward the unlock position when the drum member is moved from the parking position to the shift position or the neutral position.

A parking lock arrangement for an electromotively driven motor vehicle, including a parking lock wheel which is rotationally conjoint with respect to a shaft in the drive train and which has multiple cutouts, a lock element which is movable between a locking position and a release position along a movement path and which, in the locking position, engages in a form-fitting manner into a cutout of the parking lock wheel and, in the release position, is out of engagement with the cutouts of the parking lock wheel, a parking lock actuator which is operatively connected to the lock element and wherein the lock element is adjustable between the locking position and the release position along its movement path. The movement path of the lock element can be rectilinear.

An electric drive module that includes an electric motor, a differential assembly, and a transmission that transmits rotary power between the electric motor and the differential assembly. The transmission has first and second reductions. The first reduction has a drive gear, which is rotatable about a first axis, and a pair of first reduction gears that are each meshingly engaged to the drive gear rotatable about a respective second axis. The second axes are spaced apart from one another and are parallel to the first axis. The second reduction has a driven gear and a pair of second reduction gears. The driven gear is rotatable about a third axis that is parallel to the first axis. Each of the second reduction gears is being meshingly engaged to the driven gear and non-rotatably coupled to an associated one of the first reduction gears.

A parking lock system for a motor vehicle has a housing, a drive shaft couplable to a wheel of the motor vehicle, a locking element for non-rotatably connecting the drive shaft to the housing, an actuating element for actuating the locking element, a first adjusting disc and a second adjusting disc, which are both arranged rotatably around a common axis of rotation. The system also has an adjusting device for a rotational adjustment of the first adjusting disc, a first actuator coupled to the actuating element and to the second adjusting disc. The adjusting device transmits an actuating force from the first adjusting disc, via the second adjusting disc, first actuator, and actuating element to the locking element. The parking lock system has at least one spring device, which has a first end supported at least indirectly with respect to the first adjusting disc, and a second end supported at least indirectly with respect to the second adjusting disc.

The disclosure relates to a locking unit, in particular for the parking lock of an automatic transmission, for locking the movement of a piston which is movable by a drive and in particular can be acted upon with pressure or hydraulic pressure, wherein the piston is at least partially mounted in a center section which is at least partially surrounded by a housing.
