An adjustment drive for a motor-adjustable steering column for a motor vehicle includes a drive unit having a transmission in which there is mounted a drive wheel. The drive wheel can be driven to rotate about a drive axis and is in operative engagement with a transmission wheel which is mounted in the transmission so as to be rotatable about a transmission axis. The transmission has a drive module, which includes the drive wheel, and a transmission module, which includes the transmission wheel. The drive module and the transmission are connected to one another by a joining connection.

An electric drive unit and method of assembling the same is disclosed. The electric drive unit includes a rotor having a rotor shaft, and gear shaft, where the rotor shaft is inserted into the gear shaft. The gear shaft is supported by two bearings, while the rotor shaft supported directly at one end by a bearing and at the other by the gear shaft. A wave spring is also disclosed that provides an axial loading to the rotor shaft. Also disclosed is a balancing ring secured to an end of the rotor via a locknut. The balancing ring can be machined in order to balance the rotor. The rotor shaft can be connected to the gear shaft via a spline connection. The rotor shaft can bear against the gear shaft via a pilot journal and pilot bore defined on the rotor shaft and gear shaft respectively.

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a gearbox housing. The gearbox housing has a housing body and an annular gear. The housing body comprises an annular support and a lateral portion provided at a side face of the annular support. The lateral portion has a hole formed thereon for an input shaft to pass through. The annular gear is provided inside of the housing body along a radial direction and adapted to couple to the annular support, wherein a plurality of teeth are circumferentially provided at an inner side of the annular gear. A gear wheel with an output shaft is adapted to couple to the plurality of teeth.

A rotating device according to an embodiment includes a housing including a first housing and a second housing opposing each other; a motor accommodated in the housing; and a gear transmitting a rotation of the motor to the external device. In the first housing, a tubular protrusion part including a first through hole is formed, and in the second housing, a second through hole for fitting the protrusion part is provided.

Two laminating sheets each formed by laminating a carbon fiber sheet and a film of a thermoplastic resin are set on heating in an area of a mold corresponding to a tubular portion of a rack housing. The mold is clamped, the carbon fiber sheet is impregnated with the thermoplastic resin of the film, each of the two laminating sheets is pressed into a shape with a half tube corresponding to a half circumference of the tubular portion and connection portions at both ends of the half tube in a circumferential direction, and two half tubes are bonded together at the connection portions thereof to form the tubular portion.

A housing for a plastic gearbox and associated plastic gearbox and a robot. The housing includes a body including an inner engaging portion circumferentially arranged on an inner surface of the body, the inner engaging portion adapted to be engaged with a transmission assembly of the plastic gearbox; and an adjusting mechanism arranged around the body and operable to squeeze the body inwardly to reduce an inner diameter of the body. By using the adjusting mechanism to squeeze the body of the housing inwardly, the fit error between the inner engaging portion and the transmission assembly can be compensated in an efficient way. Furthermore, the adjusting mechanism is a part of the housing and thus the body of the housing which is made of plastic does not need to be too thick, which makes injection molding easier and manufacturing precision improved.

A composite transmission housing for a vehicle drive train transmission is configured for sealingly enclosing transmission shafts, gearwheels, and a lubricant fluid within an internal space of the housing and includes: a first carbon-fibre skeleton part having a first attachment region; a second carbon-fibre skeleton part having a first attachment region; a first sealing cover part made of plastic material and having a first sealing surface; and a second sealing cover part made of plastic material and having a second sealing surface. The first attachment regions of the first and second carbon-fibre skeleton parts are mutually connected for providing a rigid structural framework that defines said internal space, and the first and second sealing surfaces of the first and second sealing cover parts are pressed together or against corresponding sealing surfaces associated with the first and second carbon-fibre skeleton parts, for providing a sealing envelope around said internal space.

The present invention relates to a lock actuator (1), in particular for a park lock (2), which is arranged in a longitudinal axis (X-X), comprising a movable actuating element (10) which is movable into a first position (A) and a second position (B) and comprises a locking slotted guide (20), and at least one locking element (15) which is held displaceably perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (X-X), the locking slotted guide (20) having a first surface (21) and a second surface (22) at a different distance from the longitudinal axis (X-X), which are connected by a wedge surface (23) with a gradient (M1), the first surface (21) being in operative contact with the at least one locking element (15) in the first position (A) and a second surface (22) being in operative contact with the at least one locking element in the second position (B), and at least the first surface (21) and/or the second surface (22) being inclined in relation to the wedge surface (23). The present invention additionally relates to a park lock (2) with a lock actuator (1) and to a motor vehicle comprising such a park lock (2).

Systems and methods for cooling power transmission systems are include providing oil through an aperture defined in a housing to a stator cooling ring, through the stator cooling ring and into stator cooling channels, through the stator cooling channels and into spaces defined between the housing and jet rings, and through holes in the jet rings and onto the end-windings. The stator cooling ring, stator cooling channels and jet rings can encircle the stator and end-windings and, via the holes in the jet rings, spray pressurized jets of oil from various angles onto the end-windings, and in particular middle regions thereof. Seals may be used between the jet rings and housing, and between the jet rings and stator ends. The seals may be compressed so as to form an interference fit between the jet rings and housing or stator ends as the case may be.

An electric drive unit and method of assembling the same is disclosed. The electric drive unit includes a rotor having a rotor shaft, and gear shaft, where the rotor shaft is inserted into the gear shaft. The gear shaft is supported by two bearings, while the rotor shaft supported directly at one end by a bearing and at the other by the gear shaft.
