Description

The invention relates to a transmission for a motor vehicle, comprising an electric machine, a drive shaft, an output shaft, as well as a first planetary gear set and a second planetary gear set, the planetary gear sets each comprising a plurality of elements, a first, a second, a third, a fourth and a fifth switching element are provided, and wherein a rotor of the electric machine is connected to the drive shaft, to the output shaft or at least one of the elements of the planetary gear sets.

In hybrid vehicles, transmissions are known which, in addition to a set of wheels, also have one or more electric machines. The transmission is usually designed to have multiple gears, i.e. H. Several different transmission ratios can be switched as gears between a drive shaft and an output shaft by actuating corresponding switching elements, and this is preferably carried out automatically. Depending on the arrangement of the switching elements, these are clutches or brakes. The transmission is used to appropriately implement the tractive power offered by a drive engine of the motor vehicle with regard to various criteria. The gears of the transmission are usually also used in interaction with the at least one electric machine to represent purely electric driving. The at least one electric machine can often also be integrated in the transmission in different ways to represent different operating modes.

From the DE 10 2013 013 947 A1 creates a transmission for a motor vehicle that is composed of two planetary gear sets and an electric machine. The two planetary gear sets are each formed by the elements sun gear, planetary web and ring gear, with a total of five switching elements being provided, via which different power flows can be represented via the planetary gear sets. This means that several gears can be achieved between a drive shaft and an output shaft of the transmission when driven by an upstream drive machine, as well as two gears when driven by the electric machine.

It is the object of the present invention to create an alternative embodiment to the transmission for a motor vehicle known from the prior art, with which different operating modes can be represented in a suitable manner with a compact structure.

This task is solved based on the preamble of claim 1 in conjunction with its characterizing features. The following dependent claims each reflect advantageous developments of the invention. A motor vehicle drive train for a hybrid vehicle is also the subject of claim 14. Furthermore, claims 15 and 16 each relate to a method for operating a transmission.

According to the invention, a transmission comprises an electric machine, a drive shaft, an output shaft and a first planetary gear set and a second planetary gear set. The planetary gear sets include several elements, with a first, a second, a third, a fourth and a fifth switching element being provided, through the selective actuation of which different power flow routings can be represented by switching different gears. Furthermore, a rotor of the electric machine is connected to the drive shaft, to the output shaft or at least one of the elements of the planetary gear sets.

For the purposes of the invention, a “shaft” is to be understood as meaning a rotatable component of the transmission, via which associated components of the transmission are connected to one another in a rotationally fixed manner or via which such a connection is established when a corresponding switching element is actuated. The shaft can connect the components to one another axially or radially or both axially and radially. The respective shaft can also be present as an intermediate piece via which a respective component is connected radially, for example.

For the purposes of the invention, “axial” means an orientation in the direction of an axis along which the planetary gear sets are arranged coaxially with one another. “Radial” then means an orientation in the diameter direction of a shaft that lies on this axis.

The output shaft of the transmission preferably has teeth, via which the output shaft is then in operative connection in the motor vehicle drive train with a differential gear arranged axially parallel to the output shaft. Here, the toothing is preferably provided at a connection point of the output shaft, this connection point of the output shaft preferably being located axially at one end of the transmission, at which a connection point of the drive shaft is also provided. This type of arrangement is particularly suitable for use in a motor vehicle with a drive train aligned transversely to the direction of travel of the motor vehicle.

The planetary gear sets are preferably arranged axially following the connection point of the drive shaft in the order of first planetary gear set and second planetary gear set. However, within the meaning of the invention, a different arrangement can also be made.

The invention now includes the technical teaching that the drive shaft is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the first element of the second planetary gear set and can be connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the output shaft via the first switching element. The output shaft can also be non-rotatably connected to the second element of the first planetary gear set by means of the second switching element and non-rotatably connected to the third element of the second planetary gear set via the third switching element. Furthermore, the third element of the first planetary gear set and the second element of the second planetary gear set are connected to one another in a rotationally fixed manner, while the third element of the second planetary gear set can be fixed by means of the fourth switching element. Furthermore, either the first element and the third element of the second planetary gear set or the second element and the third element of the second planetary gear set can be connected to one another in a rotationally fixed manner via the fifth switching element. In addition, the first element of the first planetary gear set is fixed.

In other words, the drive shaft is permanently connected to the first element of the second planetary gear set in a rotationally fixed manner, while the third element of the first planetary gear set and the second element of the second planetary gear set are constantly connected to one another in a rotationally fixed manner. In addition, the first element of the first planetary gear set is permanently fixed and is therefore constantly prevented from rotating.

When the first switching element is actuated, the drive shaft is connected to the output shaft in a rotationally fixed manner, whereas the second switching element, in the closed state, brings the output shaft and the second element of the first planetary gear set into connection with one another in a rotationally fixed manner. Closing the third switching element results in a rotationally fixed connection of the output shaft and the third element of the second planetary gear set, while the fourth switching element in the closed state fixes the third element of the second planetary gear set and thus prevents it from rotating. Finally, by closing the fifth switching element, either the first element and the third element of the second planetary gear set or the second element and the third element of the second planetary gear set are connected to one another in a rotationally fixed manner, which in both cases results in the second planetary gear set becoming blocked.

According to the invention, a respective rotation-proof connection of the rotatable components of the transmission is preferably implemented via one or more intermediate shafts, which can also be present as short intermediate pieces if the components are in a spatially close position. Specifically, the components that are permanently connected to one another in a rotationally fixed manner can each be present either as individual components that are connected to one another in a rotationally fixed manner or in one piece. In the second-mentioned case, the respective components and the shaft, if any, are formed by a common component, this being achieved in particular when the respective components in the transmission are spatially close to one another.

For components of the transmission that are only connected to one another by actuating a respective switching element, a connection is also preferably implemented via one or more intermediate shafts.

Fixing is carried out in particular by a rotationally fixed connection to a rotationally fixed component of the transmission, which is preferably a permanently stationary component, preferably a housing of the transmission, a part of such a housing or a component connected to it in a rotationally fixed manner. In the present case, the first element of the first planetary gear set is permanently fixed and is therefore constantly connected to the stationary component in a rotationally fixed manner.

In the transmission, the first, the second, the third and the fifth switching element are present as clutches, which, when actuated, adjust the rotational movements of the associated rotatable components of the transmission and then connect them to one another in a rotationally fixed manner. On the other hand, the fourth switching element is designed as a brake, which in the actuated state fixes the associated component and thus prevents it from rotating.

The first, the second and the third switching elements are preferably arranged axially between the first planetary gear set and the second planetary gear set, in which case in particular the second switching element is axially adjacent to the first planetary gear set and this is then followed axially first by the third switching element and then the first switching element. In contrast, the fourth switching element and the fifth switching element are preferably axially on a side of the second planetary gear set that is remote from the connection point of the drive shaft zes provided, in which case in particular the fifth switching element lies axially between the second planetary gear set and the fourth switching element.

On the drive side, a separating clutch can also be provided, which in the actuated state connects the drive shaft in a rotationally fixed manner to a connecting shaft, which in turn is coupled to the drive machine connected upstream of the transmission. This separating clutch can in principle be designed as a non-positive or positive switching element, but is particularly preferably in the form of a friction clutch.

Overall, a transmission according to the invention is characterized by a compact design, low component loads, good gearing efficiency and low losses.

In the transmission according to the invention, four gears can be achieved between the drive shaft and the output shaft by selectively closing two shift elements each. This results in a first gear between the drive shaft and the output shaft by actuating the second and fourth switching elements, while a second gear between the drive shaft and the output shaft can be achieved by closing the second and third switching elements. Furthermore, a third gear can be switched between the input shaft and the output shaft by actuating the second and fifth switching elements. Finally, a fourth gear results between the drive shaft and the output shaft in a first variant by closing the first and second switching elements, in a second variant by actuating the first and fourth switching elements, in a third variant by closing the first and third switching elements, in a fourth variant by actuating the first and fifth switching elements and in a fifth variant by closing the third and fifth switching elements.

With a suitable choice of stationary gear ratios for the planetary gear sets, a series of ratios suitable for use in a motor vehicle is achieved. Shifts between the gears can be implemented in which only the state of two shift elements each has to be changed by opening one of the shift elements involved in the previous gear and closing another shift element to represent the subsequent gear. This also means that switching between gears can happen very quickly.

• So kann ein erster Gang zwischen dem Rotor der Elektromaschine und der Abtriebswelle für ein rein elektrisches Fahren genutzt werden. Dabei ergibt sich dieser erste Gang durch Schließen des zweiten Schaltelements. Bei der ersten Variante der Erfindung, bei welcher der Rotor ständig mit dem dritten Element des ersten Planetenradsatzes und dem zweiten Element des zweiten Planetenradsatzes verbunden ist, wird der Rotor bei geschlossenem zweiten Schaltelement über den ersten Planetenradsatz mit der Abtriebswelle gekoppelt, wobei eine Übersetzung des ersten Ganges dabei einer Übersetzung des dritten, zwischen Antriebswelle und Abtriebswelle wirksamen Ganges entspricht.

According to one embodiment of the invention, the rotor of the electric machine is constantly connected to the third element of the first planetary gear set and the second element of the second planetary gear set. According to an alternative embodiment of the invention, the rotor of the electric machine is constantly connected to the second element of the first planetary gear set. Both arrangements of the electric machine in the transmission are advantageous because different operating modes can be implemented in a simple manner:

• A first gear between the rotor of the electric machine and the output shaft can be used for purely electric driving. This first gear results from closing the second switching element. In the first variant of the invention, in which the rotor is constantly connected to the third element of the first planetary gear set and the second element of the second planetary gear set, the rotor is coupled to the output shaft via the first planetary gear set when the second switching element is closed, with a translation of the first Gear corresponds to a translation of the third gear effective between the drive shaft and output shaft.

In the alternative variant of the invention, in which the rotor is constantly connected to the second element of the first planetary gear set, on the other hand, when the second switching element is closed, the rotor is directly connected to the output shaft. The ratio of the first gear corresponds to the ratio of the fourth gear, which is effective between the drive shaft and the output shaft.

Since a further switching element always has to be closed for driving via a drive machine upstream of the transmission, driving via the electric machine can be represented in both variants without the drive machine being coupled. From this purely electric driving, the upstream drive machine can then go into the first gear effective between the input and output shafts, into the second gear effective between the input and output shafts, into the third gear effective between the input and output shafts and into the first variant of the fourth gear The input and output shafts of the effective gears are each started, since the second switching element is involved in each of these gears.

As a further operating mode, charging operation of an electrical energy storage device can also be implemented in both variants by only closing the fifth switching element and thereby establishing a coupling of the drive shaft and thus also the upstream drive machine with the electric machine. The electric machine is in the first variant, in which the Rotor is constantly connected to the third element of the first planetary gear set and the second element of the second planetary gear set, then coupled directly to the drive shaft. In contrast, in the case of the second variant, in which the rotor is constantly connected to the second element of the first planetary gear set, a coupling to the drive shaft is established via the first planetary gear set. At the same time, in both variants there is no frictional connection to the output shaft, so that the transmission is in a neutral position. Apart from charging operation, the upstream drive machine can also be started via the electric machine.

Alternatively, charging operation or starting the upstream drive machine can also be realized by closing the fourth switching element. In the closed state of the fourth switching element, the drive shaft in the first variant of the invention is coupled to the electric machine via the second planetary gear set, whereas in the case of the second variant, when the fourth switching element is actuated, both planetary gear sets are used to couple the drive shaft to the electric machine.

Since the electric machine is coupled to the output shaft in the closed state of the second switching element, power shifts can also be implemented, in which support can take place via the electric machine during the shifts. The synchronization of the switching element to be closed during a shift can be carried out by speed control of the upstream drive machine or by synchronized switching elements or by another, separate synchronization device, such as a transmission brake or another electric machine. If a separating clutch is also provided on the drive side of the drive shaft, the inertial mass of the upstream drive machine can be decoupled during synchronization.

Specifically, shifts between the first gear effective between the input and output shafts and the second gear effective between the input and output shafts can be implemented under load with the second switching element closed. The same is possible with power shifts between the second gear effective between the input and output shafts and the third gear effective between the input and output shafts. Furthermore, power shifts between the third gear effective between the input and output shafts and the first variant of the fourth gear effective between the input and output shafts can be represented in the closed state of the second switching element.

In both variants, the transmission according to the invention can also be operated in such a way that the speed of the electric machine is reduced when driving. So you can initially drive hybrid in the first variant of fourth gear, either after a torque-assisted shift from third to fourth gear via the electric machine or after starting the drive machine into fourth gear, the second switching element initially remains closed. In order to reduce the speed of the electric machine in fourth gear at higher driving speeds, you can switch from the first variant of the fourth gear to the fourth variant of the fourth gear, since the rotor of the electric machine has a lower speed here than in the first variant of the fourth Ganges. This switchover takes place while maintaining the tractive force via the upstream drive machine. First, the load-free, second switching element is laid out and then the load-free, fifth switching element is inserted, with the speed adjustment being carried out by speed control of the electric machine. If a separating clutch is also provided, via which the drive shaft can be connected to a connecting shaft on the drive side, the upstream drive machine can also be decoupled in the fourth variant of fourth gear. The latter makes sense if recuperation is to take place via the electric machine even at higher driving speeds and the drive machine has to be decoupled and switched off.

For the purposes of the invention, a “connection” of the rotor of the electric machine with the respective component of the transmission is to be understood as a coupling between them, so that a constant speed dependency prevails between the rotor of the electric machine and the respective component. In the first variant of the invention, this connection exists permanently between the rotor and the third element of the first planetary gear set and the second element of the second planetary gear set, whereas in the second variant of the invention a permanent connection of the rotor to the second element of the first planetary gear set is established. The electric machine can be arranged either coaxially with the planetary gear sets or axially offset from them. In the first-mentioned case, the rotor of the electric machine can either be directly connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the component or components or can be coupled to this or these via one or more intermediate transmission stages, the latter enabling a more favorable design of the electric machine with higher speeds and lower torque. The at least one about The setting stage can be designed as a spur gear stage and/or as a planetary gear stage.

If, on the other hand, the electric machine is provided with an axial offset to the planetary gear sets, a coupling takes place via one or more intermediate transmission stages and/or a traction drive. The one or more transmission stages can also be implemented individually either as a spur gear stage or as a planetary stage. A traction drive can be either a belt drive or a chain drive.

According to a further possible embodiment of the invention, exactly one electric machine is provided, which is set up to drive the output shaft. In this case, the transmission according to the invention only has an electric machine, which can also act as a drive for the output shaft, which is then preferably constantly connected to the third element of the first planetary gear set and the second element of the second planetary gear set or constantly connected to the second element of the first planetary gear set is connected. This has the advantage that a compact structure and low manufacturing costs for the transmission can be achieved.

Alternatively, a second electric machine can be provided, the rotor of which is constantly connected to the drive shaft. The functionality of the transmission can be further increased by such a design.

According to a further possible embodiment of the invention, the output shaft can also be connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the third element of the first planetary gear set and the second element of the second planetary gear set by means of a sixth switching element. In this case, a further, sixth switching element is provided, which in the closed state connects the output shaft and the third element of the first planetary gear set and the second element of the second planetary gear set to one another in a rotationally fixed manner. This sixth switching element is particularly preferably provided axially between the first planetary gear set and the second planetary gear set and lies in particular axially between the second switching element and the third switching element.

By providing the additional, sixth switching element, further variants of the fourth gear effective between the input and output shaft can then be implemented in the transmission according to the invention. This results in the fourth gear effective between the input and output shafts in a sixth variant by closing the first and sixth switching elements, in a seventh variant by actuating the third and sixth switching elements and in an eighth variant by closing the fifth and sixth switching elements . Finally, an additional gear can be displayed by operating the fourth and sixth switching elements.

In addition, when the rotor of the electric machine is connected either to the third element of the first planetary gear set and the second element of the second planetary gear set or to the second element of the first planetary gear set, a second gear can also be realized, which is between the rotor of the electric machine and the output shaft is effective. This second gear is switched by closing the sixth switching element, so that the electric machine is then directly coupled to the output shaft in the variant in which the rotor is constantly connected to the third element of the first planetary gear set and the second element of the second planetary gear set. If, on the other hand, the rotor of the electric machine in the second variant is constantly connected to the second element of the first planetary gear set, then in second gear with the sixth switching element closed, the rotor is coupled to the output shaft via the first planetary gear set.

Starting from second gear, the upstream drive machine can then be started in the sixth, seventh or eighth variant of the fourth gear effective between the input and output shafts, since the sixth switching element is also involved in each of these gears.

Furthermore, if the sixth switching element is provided, the transmission according to the invention can be operated in such a way that the speed of the electric machine is reduced when driving. So you can initially drive in a hybrid manner in the first variant of the fourth gear effective between the input and output shafts, either after a torque-assisted shift from third to fourth gear via the electric machine or after starting the drive machine into fourth gear, the fourth switching element is initially closed remains. In order to reduce the speed of the electric machine in fourth gear at higher driving speeds, you can switch from the first variant of fourth gear to the sixth variant of fourth gear, since the rotor of the electric machine has a lower speed here than in the first variant fourth course. This switchover takes place while maintaining the tractive force via the upstream drive machine. First, the load-free, second switching element is laid out and then the load-free, sixth switching element is inserted placed, with the speed adjustment being carried out by speed control of the electric machine.

No separating clutch is required to decouple the upstream drive machine, since the upstream drive machine can be decoupled in the sixth variant of the fourth gear, which is effective between the input and output shafts, by opening the first switching element. This then creates the second gear, which is effective between the rotor of the electric machine and the output shaft.

In addition, when the vehicle slows down, a downshift from the fourth gear, which is effective between the input and output shafts, to the third gear, which is effective between the input and output shafts, can be prepared. To do this, you must first change from the sixth variant of the fourth gear to the first variant of the fourth gear, with the tractive force being maintained by the closed, first switching element via the upstream drive machine. Since the second switching element is closed in the first variant of the fourth gear and also in the third gear, which is effective between the input and output shafts, a downshift can subsequently be carried out.

In a further development of the invention, one or more switching elements are each implemented as a positive switching element. The respective switching element is preferably designed either as a claw switching element or as a locking synchronization. Positive switching elements have the advantage over non-positive switching elements that lower drag losses occur in the open state, so that better transmission efficiency can be achieved. In particular, in the transmission according to the invention, all switching elements are implemented as positive switching elements, so that the lowest possible drag losses can be achieved.

Within the scope of the invention, the two planetary gear sets can each be present as a negative planetary gear set, provided that the individual elements can be connected, with the first element of the respective planetary gear set being a sun gear, the second element of the respective planetary gear set being a planetary web and the third element of the respective planetary gear set is a ring gear. A minus planetary set is composed, in a manner known in principle to those skilled in the art, of the elements sun gear, planetary web and ring gear, with the planetary web having at least one, but preferably several, planetary gears rotatably mounted, each of which is connected to both the sun gear and the comb the surrounding ring gear.

Alternatively, one or both planetary gear sets could, if the connection of the respective elements allows it, be present as a plus planetary gear set, with the first element of the respective planetary gear set then being a sun gear and the second element of the respective planetary gear set being a ring gear and the third element of the respective planetary gear set is a planetary web. In a plus planetary set, the elements sun gear, ring gear and planetary web are also present, with the latter leading at least one pair of planetary gears, in which one planetary gear meshes with the internal sun gear and the other planetary gear meshes with the surrounding ring gear, and the planetary gears mesh with each other.

Where it is possible to connect the individual elements, a minus planetary set can be converted into a plus planetary set, whereby the ring gear and the planetary web connection must then be swapped with each other compared to the version as a minus planetary set, and a gear ratio must be increased by one. Conversely, a plus planetary set could also be replaced by a minus planetary set, provided the connection of the transmission elements allows this. In comparison to the plus planetary set, the ring gear and the planetary web connection would also have to be exchanged with each other, and a gear ratio would have to be reduced by one. However, the first planetary gear set is preferably implemented as a minus planetary gear set, while the second planetary gear set is present as a plus planetary gear set.

In a further development of the invention, at least two switching elements are combined to form a pair of switching elements, each of which is assigned an actuating element, whereby one switching element and the other switching element of the respective switching element pair can be actuated from a respective neutral position. This is implemented in switching elements of the transmission that have a common shaft and are not operated in one gear at the same time, and has the advantage that the number of actuating elements can be reduced and thus the manufacturing effort can be reduced.

Depending on the specific design of the transmission, the first and the third shifting element and/or the fourth and the fifth shifting element and/or the second and the sixth shifting element and/or the first and the fifth shifting element and/or the third and the fourth shifting element be combined in pairs and each have a common actuating element.

Within the scope of the invention, the transmission can be preceded by a starting element, for example a hydrodynamic torque converter or a friction clutch. This starting element can then also be part of the transmission and is used to design a starting process by allowing a slip speed between the internal combustion engine and the drive shaft of the transmission. One of the switching elements of the transmission or the possibly existing separating clutch can also be designed as such a starting element in that it is present as a friction switching element. In addition, in principle, a freewheel to the gearbox housing or to another shaft can be arranged on each shaft of the transmission.

The transmission according to the invention is in particular part of a motor vehicle drive train for a hybrid vehicle and is then arranged between a drive engine of the motor vehicle, which is designed in particular as an internal combustion engine, and further components of the drive train following in the direction of power flow to the drive wheels of the motor vehicle. Here, the drive shaft of the transmission is either permanently coupled in a rotationally fixed manner to a crankshaft of the internal combustion engine or can be connected to it via an intermediate separating clutch or a starting element, whereby a torsional vibration damper can also be provided between the internal combustion engine and the transmission. On the output side, the transmission within the motor vehicle drive train is then preferably coupled to a differential gear of a drive axle of the motor vehicle, although here there can also be a connection to a longitudinal differential, via which distribution to several driven axles of the motor vehicle takes place. The differential gear or the longitudinal differential can be arranged with the gear in a common housing. A torsional vibration damper can also be integrated into this housing.

The fact that two components of the transmission are "connected" or "coupled" in a rotationally fixed manner or are "connected to one another" means, in the sense of the invention, a permanent coupling of these components so that they cannot rotate independently of one another. In this respect, no switching element is provided between these components, which can be elements of the planetary gear sets and/or shafts and/or a non-rotatable component of the transmission, but rather the corresponding components are rigidly coupled to one another.

If, on the other hand, a switching element is provided between two components, these components are not permanently coupled to one another in a rotationally fixed manner, but a rotationally fixed coupling is only carried out by actuating the intermediate switching element. Actuation of the switching element in the sense of the invention means that the switching element in question is transferred to a closed state and as a result the components directly coupled thereto align their rotational movements with one another. If the switching element in question is designed as a positive switching element, the components that are directly connected to one another in a rotationally fixed manner will run at the same speed, while in the case of a non-positive switching element, speed differences can exist between the components even after the same has been actuated. In the context of the invention, this desired or unwanted state is nevertheless referred to as a rotationally fixed connection of the respective components via the switching element.

1 shows a schematic view of a motor vehicle drive train of a hybrid vehicle, wherein in the motor vehicle drive train an internal combustion engine VKM is connected to a transmission G via an intermediate torsional vibration damper TS. The transmission G is followed by a differential gear AG on the output side, via which drive power is distributed to drive wheels DW of a drive axle of the motor vehicle. The gear G and the torsional vibration damper TS are arranged in a common housing of the gear G, into which the differential gear AG can then also be integrated. As also in 1 can be seen, the internal combustion engine VKM, the torsional vibration damper TS, the transmission G and also the differential gear AG are aligned transversely to a direction of travel of the motor vehicle.

Out of 2 shows a schematic representation of the transmission G according to a first embodiment of the invention. As can be seen, the transmission G is composed of a gear set RS and an electric machine EM, which are arranged together in the housing of the transmission G. The gear set RS includes two planetary gear sets P1 and P2, each of the planetary gear sets P1 and P2 having a first element E11 or E12, a second element E21 or E22 and a third element E31 or E32. The respective first element E11 or E12 is each formed by a sun gear of the respective planetary gear set P1 or P2, while the second element E21 of the first planetary gear set P1 is present as a planetary web and the third element E31 of the first planetary gear set P1 is present as a ring gear. On the other hand, the second element E22 of the second planetary gear set P2 is designed as a ring gear and the third element E32 of the second planetary gear set P2 is designed as a planetary web.

In the present case, the first planetary gear set P1 is a negative planetary gear set, the planetary web of which rotatably guides at least one planet gear, which is in mesh with both the radially inner sun gear and the radially surrounding ring gear. However, it is particularly preferred for several planetary gears to be provided in the first planetary gear set P1. In contrast to this, the second planetary gear set P2 is implemented as a plus planetary gear set, in which case the planetary web rotatably guides at least one pair of planetary gears, of which a planetary gear meshes with the radially inner sun gear and a planetary gear meshes with the radially surrounding ring gear, as well as the planetary gears comb among themselves. However, several pairs of planetary gears are also provided in the second planetary gear set P2.

If the connection allows it, the first planetary gear set P1 could also be designed as a plus planetary gear set, whereby, compared to the design as a minus planetary gear set, the second element E21 is then formed by the ring gear and the third element E31 by the planetary web and also a gear ratio must be increased by one. Conversely, the second planetary gear set P2 could also be implemented as a minus planetary gear set, provided that the elements can be connected. In comparison to the version as a plus planetary set, however, the second element E22 would then have to be formed by the planetary web and the third element E32 by the ring gear and a gear ratio would also have to be reduced by one.

As in 2 can be seen, the transmission G comprises a total of five switching elements in the form of a first switching element K1, a second switching element K2, a third switching element K3, a fourth switching element B1 and a fifth switching element K4. The switching elements K1, K2, K3, B1 and K4 are each designed as positive switching elements and are preferably in the form of claw switching elements. In addition, the first switching element K1, the second switching element K2, the third switching element K3 and the fifth switching element K4 are designed as clutches, while the fourth switching element B1 is designed as a brake.

A drive shaft GW 1 of the transmission G is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the first element E12 of the second planetary gear set P2 and can be connected in a rotationally fixed manner to an output shaft GW2 of the transmission G via the first switching element K1. The output shaft GW2 can also be non-rotatably connected to the second element E21 of the first planetary gear set P1 by closing the second switching element K2 and non-rotatably connected to the third element E32 of the second planetary gear set P2 by actuating the third switching element K3. In addition, the third element E32 of the second planetary gear set P2 can also be fixed to a rotationally fixed component GG of the transmission G by means of the fourth switching element B1, which is in particular the housing or part of the housing of the transmission G.

As also in 2 As can be seen, the third element E31 of the first planetary gear set P1 and the second element E22 of the second planetary gear set P2 are connected to one another in a rotationally fixed manner and are also constantly connected in a rotationally fixed manner to a rotor R of the electric machine EM. The electric machine EM is arranged coaxially to the two planetary gear sets P1 and P2, with a stator S of the electric machine EM being the most rotationally fixed Component GG of the transmission G is fixed. Furthermore, the third element E32 and the first element E12 of the second planetary gear set P2 can be connected to one another in a rotationally fixed manner by actuating the fifth switching element K4, which results in the second planetary gear set P2 being blocked. Finally, the first element E11 of the first planetary gear set P1 is permanently fixed to the rotationally fixed component GG.

Both the drive shaft GW1 and the output shaft GW2 each form a connection point GW1-A or GW2-A, with the connection point GW1-A in the motor vehicle drive train 1 serves to connect to the internal combustion engine VKM, while the transmission G is connected to the subsequent differential gear AG at the connection point GW2-A. The connection point GW1-A of the drive shaft GW1 is designed at an axial end of the transmission G, with the connection point GW2-A of the output shaft GW2 lying at the same axial end and being aligned transversely to the connection point GW1-A of the drive shaft GW1. The two planetary gear sets P1 and P2 are arranged axially following the connection point GW1-A of the drive shaft GW1 in the order of the first planetary gear set P1 and the second planetary gear set P2.

How also from 2 As can be seen, the first switching element K1, the second switching element K2 and the third switching element K3 are placed axially between the first planetary gear set P1 and the second planetary gear set P2, the second switching element K2 being provided axially adjacent to the first planetary gear set P1 and then axially first third switching element K3 and then the first switching element K1 follow. The first switching element K1 and the third switching element K3 have a common actuating element - not shown here - via which the first switching element K1 and the third switching element K3 can be actuated from a neutral position. In this respect, the first switching element K1 and the third switching element K3 are combined to form a pair of switching elements SP1.

On the other hand, the fourth switching element B1 and the fifth switching element K4 are placed axially on a side of the second planetary gear set P2 that is remote from the connection point GW1-A, with the fifth switching element K4 lying axially between the second planetary gear set P2 and the fourth switching element B1. In addition, the fourth switching element B1 and the fifth switching element K4 are arranged axially directly next to one another and combined to form a switching element pair SP2, in that a common actuating element - also not shown here - is assigned to the fourth switching element B1 and the fifth switching element K4, via which from a neutral position on the one hand the fourth switching element B1 and on the other hand the fifth switching element K4 can be actuated.

The electric machine EM is placed axially between the first planetary gear set P1 and the second planetary gear set P2.

Also goes out 3 a schematic representation of a transmission G according to a second embodiment of the invention, which is essentially the same as the previous variant 2 corresponds. What is different, however, is that in this case, in the actuated state, a fifth switching element K4 connects the second element E22 and the third element E32 of the second planetary gear set P2 to one another in a rotationally fixed manner and thereby causes the second planetary gear set P2 to lock. In addition, the fourth switching element B1 and the fifth switching element K4 have swapped places in terms of their axial arrangement, in that the fourth switching element B1 is now placed axially between the second planetary gear set P2 and the fifth switching element K4. Here, the fourth switching element B1 and the fifth switching element K4 are again combined to form the switching element pair SP2. Otherwise, the embodiment corresponds 3 according to the previous variant 2 , so that reference is made to what has been described.

4 shows a schematic view of a transmission G according to a third possible embodiment of the invention, which is largely based on the variant 2 corresponds. In contrast to the embodiment according to 2 The rotor R of the electric machine EM, which is coaxial with the planetary gear sets P1 and P 2, is now connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the second element E21 of the first planetary gear set P1. Otherwise the design options correspond 4 according to the variant 2 , so that reference is made to what has been described.

Furthermore goes out 5 a schematic representation of a transmission G according to a fourth embodiment of the invention. This essentially corresponds to the previous variant 4 , but in contrast to this there is now a fifth switching element K4 - as in the variant 3 - In the actuated state, the second element E22 and the third element E32 of the second planetary gear set P2 are connected to one another in a rotationally fixed manner and thereby cause the second planetary gear set P2 to lock. Axially, the fourth switching element B1 is provided between the second planetary gear set P2 and the fifth switching element K4 and also again combined with the fifth switching element K4 to form a switching element pair SP2. Otherwise the embodiment corresponds 5 according to the previous variant 4 , so that reference is made to what has been described.

In 6 is an exemplary shift diagram for the transmission G from the 2 until 5 presented in tabular form. As can be seen, a total of four gears 1 to 4.5 can be achieved between the drive shaft GW1 and the output shaft GW2, with an in which aisles 1 to 4.5 are closed. In each of gears 1 to 4.5, two of the switching elements K1, K2, K3, B1 and K4 are closed.

As in 6 can be seen, a first gear 1 is switched between the drive shaft GW1 and the output shaft GW2 by actuating the second switching element K2 and the fourth switching element B1, from which a second gear 2 effective between the drive shaft GW1 and the output shaft GW2 is formed by the fourth switching element B1 is opened and the third switching element K3 is closed. Furthermore, it is then possible to shift into a third gear 3, which is effective between the drive shaft GW1 and the output shaft GW2, by opening the third switching element K3 and subsequently closing the fifth switching element K4.

Furthermore, a fourth gear, effective between the drive shaft GW1 and the output shaft GW2, results in a first variant 4.1 by actuating the first switching element K1 and the second switching element K2, with the fourth gear still in a second variant 4.2 by closing the first switching element K1 and the fourth switching element B1, in a third variant 4.3 by actuating the first switching element K1 and the third switching element K3, in a fourth variant 4.4 by actuating the first switching element K1 and the fifth switching element K4 and in a fifth variant 4.5 by closing the third switching element K3 and the fifth switching element K4 can be represented.

Although the switching elements K1, K2, K3, B1 and K4 are each designed as positive switching elements, switching between the first gear 1 and the second gear 2, between the second gear 2 and the third gear 3 and between the third gear 3 and the first variant 4.1 of fourth gear can be realized under load. The reason for this is that the second switching element K2 is involved in all of these gears, so that the output can be supported via the electric machine EM during the gear changes. The EM electric machine is available according to the variants 2 and 3 when the second switching element K2 is closed, it is coupled to the output shaft GW2 via the first planetary gear set P1, whereas in the variants according to 4 and 5 In the actuated state of the second switching element K2, there is a direct connection of the rotor R of the electric machine EM to the output shaft GW2. Synchronization of the circuits can be achieved by appropriate control of the upstream internal combustion engine VKM, so that the switching element to be designed can be opened without load and the switching element to be closed subsequently can be closed without load.

The gear G of the 2 until 5 can also be operated in other operating modes with the help of the electric machine EM: purely electric driving can take place in a first gear E1, which is effective between the rotor R of the electric machine EM and the output shaft GW2 and is represented by the second switching element K2 in to transfer to a closed state is how 4 emerges. In the case of the gearboxes G becomes 2 and 3 When the second switching element K2 is closed, the electric machine EM is connected to the output shaft GW2 via the first planetary gear set P1 with a constant gear ratio, the gear ratio of the first gear E1 corresponding to the gear ratio of the third gear 3 effective between the drive shaft GW1 and the output shaft GW2. Instead, the transmission G is used in the variants 4 and 5 In the closed state of the second switching element K2, a direct, rotationally fixed connection of the rotor R of the electric machine EM to the output shaft GW2 is caused. In this case, the translation of the first gear E1 then corresponds to the translation of the fourth gear effective between the drive shaft GW1 and the output shaft GW2.

Advantageously, starting from the first gear E1, the internal combustion engine VKM can be started in one of the gears 1, 2, 3 and 4.1, since the second switching element K2 is also closed in each of these gears. In this respect, you can quickly switch from purely electric driving to driving using the internal combustion engine or hybrid driving.

Furthermore, a charging or starting function can be implemented by closing the fifth switching element K4. Because with the gearboxes G from the 2 and 3 is the rotor R of the electric machine EM in the closed state of the fifth switching element K4 via the then blocked second planetary gear set P2 directly to the drive shaft GW1 coupled and thus also with the internal combustion engine VKM. At the same time, however, there is no adhesion to the output shaft GW2, with the rotor R and the drive shaft GW1 running at the same speed. In generator operation of the electric machine EM, an electrical energy storage device can be charged via the internal combustion engine VKM, while in electromotive operation of the electric machine EM, starting the internal combustion engine VKM via the electric machine EM is possible. For the gearboxes G from the 4 and 5 On the other hand, when the fifth switching element K4 is actuated, a coupling of the rotor R of the electric machine EM with the drive shaft GW1 via the first planetary gear set P1 is shown, whereby a charging or starting function can also be implemented here.

In addition, a charging or starting function can also be implemented by closing the fourth switching element B1, which is the case with the transmissions G from the 2 and 3 This results in a coupling of the electric machine EM with the drive shaft GW1 by means of the second planetary gear set P2, whereas in the transmissions G from the 4 and 5 a coupling takes place via both planetary gear sets P1 and P2.

A start-up function for reversing EDA-R can also be implemented as a further operating mode. For this purpose, the third switching element K3 must be closed, which means that in the transmissions G 2 and 3 is driven via the drive shaft GW1 by means of the first element E12 of the second planetary gear set P2, while the electric machine EM can support the torque of the internal combustion engine VKM on the second element E22 of the second planetary gear set P2. Output then takes place via the third element E32 of the second planetary gear set P2 onto the output shaft GW2. In the case of the gear G from the 4 and 5 is also driven via the drive shaft GW 1 by means of the first element E12 of the second planetary gear set P2 and an output via the third element E32 of the second planetary gear set P2 is realized through a rotationally fixed connection to the output shaft GW2, although the difference is that the torque is supported via the electric machine EM on the second element E22 of the second planetary gear set P2 takes place when gearing via the first planetary gear set P1. In both cases this can be used to represent a start for reverse travel.

Finally, a speed reduction of the electric machine EM can be designed in mechanical or hybrid operation: after a torque-assisted shift from third gear to fourth gear via the electric machine EM or after starting the internal combustion engine VKM into fourth gear, hybrid driving results in fourth gear Gear 4.1. In order to reduce the speed of the electric machine EM in fourth gear at higher driving speeds, it is possible to switch from the first variant 4.1 of the fourth gear to the fourth variant 4.4 of the fourth gear, in which the rotor R has a lower speed. This switchover takes place while maintaining the tractive force via the internal combustion engine VKM. For this purpose, the then load-free, second switching element K2 is designed and the also load-free fifth switching element K4 is inserted, with the speed adjustment being carried out by speed control of the electric machine EM.

Furthermore shows 7 a schematic representation of a transmission G according to a fifth embodiment of the invention. This embodiment also largely corresponds to the variant 2 , but in contrast to this, a sixth switching element K5 is now additionally provided, which in the actuated state connects the output shaft GW2 in a rotationally fixed manner with the third element E31 of the first planetary gear set P1 and the second element E22 of the second planetary gear set P2, so that a direct, rotationally fixed connection of the Output shaft GW2 is manufactured with the rotor R of the electric machine EM. The sixth switching element K5, which in the present case is designed as a clutch, is provided axially between the second switching element K2 and the third switching element K3. In the present case, the second switching element K2 and the sixth switching element K5 are combined to form a switching element pair SP3, in that a common actuating element - not shown - is assigned to the second switching element K2 and the sixth switching element K5, via which the second switching element K2 and on the other hand, the sixth switching element K5 can be actuated. Otherwise, the embodiment corresponds to 7 according to the variant 2 , so that reference is made to what has been described.

Furthermore, in 8th a schematic view of a transmission G corresponding to a sixth embodiment of the invention is shown, this embodiment being largely similar to the previous variant 7 corresponds. The only difference is that, as with the variant according to 3 , a fifth switching element K4 in the actuated state now connects the second element E22 and the third element E32 of the second planetary gear set P2 in a rotationally fixed manner and thereby causes the second planetary gear set P2 to lock. In addition, the fourth switching element B1 is now placed axially between the second planetary gear set P2 and the fifth switching element K4 and is still connected to the fifth switching element K4 summarized in the switching element pair SP2. Otherwise the design options correspond 8th according to the variant 7 , so that reference is made to what has been described.

9 shows a schematic view of a transmission G according to a seventh possible embodiment of the invention, which is also largely based on the variant 7 corresponds. What is different, however, is that the rotor R of the electric machine EM is now connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the second element E21 of the first planetary gear set P1. Otherwise the design options correspond 9 according to the variant 7 , so that reference is made to what has been described.

Also goes out 10 a schematic representation of a transmission G according to an eighth embodiment of the invention. This essentially corresponds to the previous variant 9 , but in contrast to this there is now a fifth switching element K4 - as in the variant 8th - In the actuated state, the second element E22 and the third element E32 of the second planetary gear set P2 are connected to one another in a rotationally fixed manner. This in turn causes the second planetary gear set P2 to become blocked. Axially, the fourth switching element B1 is provided between the second planetary gear set P2 and the fifth switching element K4 and is again combined with the fifth switching element K4 to form a switching element pair SP2. Otherwise the embodiment corresponds 10 according to the previous variant 9 , so that reference is made to what has been described.

In 11 is an exemplary shift diagram of the transmission G from the 7 until 10 shown, this circuit diagram essentially being the same as the circuit diagram 6 corresponds. What is different is that the additional sixth switching element K5 can now be used to realize further variants of a fourth gear effective between the drive shaft GW1 and the output shaft GW2. This results in a sixth variant 4.6 of the fourth gear by activating the first switching element K1 and the sixth switching element K5, a seventh variant 4.7 by closing the third switching element K3 and the sixth switching element K5 and an eighth variant 4.8 by activating the fifth switching element K4 and the sixth switching element K5. In addition, an additional gear Z1 can be implemented, which results from closing the fourth switching element B1 and the sixth switching element K5.

Also with the G gearboxes from the 7 until 10 can the different, in 6 operating modes described can be implemented. In addition, a second gear E2 can now be represented by closing the sixth switching element K5, the second gear E2 being effective between the rotor R and the output shaft GW2. For the gearboxes G from the 7 and 8th the rotor R of the electric machine EM is then directly connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the output shaft GW2, a gear ratio of the second gear E2 corresponding to a gear ratio of the fourth gear effective between the drive shaft GW1 and the output shaft GW2.

In contrast, actuating the sixth switching element K5 causes the transmissions G to turn off 9 and 10 a coupling of the rotor R of the electric machine EM with the output shaft GW2 via the first planetary gear set P1, since the output shaft GW2 is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the third element E31 of the first planetary gear set P1 in the closed state of the sixth switching element K5, while the first element E11 of the first planetary gear set P1 is fixed and the second element E21 of the first planetary gear set P1 is connected to the rotor R in a rotationally fixed manner.

Starting from the second gear E2, the internal combustion engine VKM can be started in gears 4.6, 4.7 or 4.8, since the sixth switching element K5 is also involved in each of these.

In addition, G can be used for gearboxes 5 and 6 A speed reduction of the electric machine EM can also be achieved by switching from the first variant 4.1 to the sixth variant 4.6 of the fourth gear. For this purpose, starting from the first variant 4.1, while maintaining the tractive force via the internal combustion engine VKM, the load-free second switching element K2 is first laid out and the also load-free, sixth switching element K5 is inserted, with a speed adjustment to represent the load freedoms taking place by speed control of the electric machine EM. Apart from the fact that a reduction in the speed of the rotor R of the electric machine EM can be achieved by switching to the sixth variant 4.6 of the fourth gear, it is also possible to decouple the internal combustion engine VKM at any time by opening the first switching element K1, if via the electric machine EM should be driven or braked (recuperation).

In addition, when the vehicle slows down, a downshift from fourth gear to third gear 3 can be prepared by first changing from the sixth variant 4.6 to the first variant 4.1 of the fourth gear, while the traction force is maintained via the internal combustion engine VKM with the first switching element K1 closed becomes. In the first variant 4.1 of fourth gear, the second switching element K2 is then closed, via which the tractive force can be supported during the downshift to third gear 3.

Finally, they show 12 until 10 Possible modifications to the gear G from the 2 until 5 and 7 until 10 . These modification options relate to other integration options for an electric machine EM. That's how it is 12 the electric machine EM is not placed coaxially with the respective - not shown here - wheelset RS of the transmission G, but is arranged axially offset. A connection is made via a spur gear stage SRS, which is composed of a first spur gear SR1 and a second spur gear SR2. The first spur gear SR1 is connected to the RS wheel set in a rotationally fixed manner, where in the variants 2 until 5 and 7 until 10 the rotor R was connected in a rotationally fixed manner. The spur gear SR1 is then in mesh with the spur gear SR2, which is placed in a rotationally fixed manner on an input shaft EW of the electric machine EM, which establishes the connection within the electric machine EM to the rotor of the electric machine EM - not shown here.

Also with the possibility of modification 13 the electric machine EM is placed axially offset from the respective wheelset RS of the respective transmission G. In contrast to the previous variant 12 However, the connection is not made via a spur gear stage SRS, but rather via a traction drive ZT. This traction drive ZT can be designed as a belt or chain drive. On the part of the wheelset RS, the traction drive ZT is then connected to the point at which the gears G from the 2 until 5 and 7 until 10 in each case a rotationally fixed connection of the rotor R was completed. A coupling to an input shaft EW of the electric machine EM is then established via the traction drive ZT, which in turn makes a connection to the rotor of the electric machine within the electric machine EM.

In the case of the possibility of modification 14 The electric machine EM, which is placed axially offset from the respective wheelset RS, is implemented via a planetary stage PS and a spur gear stage SRS. The planetary stage PS is connected downstream of the gear set RS, with the spur gear stage SRS being provided on the output side of the planetary stage PS, via which the connection to the electric machine EM is established. The planetary stage PS is composed of a ring gear HO, a planetary web PT and a sun gear SO, with the planetary web PT rotatably supporting at least one planetary gear PR, which meshes with both the sun gear SO and the ring gear HO.

In the present case, the planetary web PT is connected to the gear set RS in a rotationally fixed manner, where in the gearboxes G from the 2 until 5 and 7 until 10 in each case a rotationally fixed connection of the rotor R was completed. In contrast, the ring gear HO is permanently fixed to the non-rotatable component GG, while the sun gear SO is non-rotatably connected to a first spur gear SR1 of the spur gear stage SRS. The first spur gear SR1 then meshes with a second spur gear SR2 of the spur gear stage SRS, which is provided in a rotationally fixed manner on an input shaft EW of the electric machine EM. In this case, the electric machine EM is connected to the RS wheelset via two gear ratios.

Also with the possibility of modification 15 The electric machine EM is integrated into the RS gear set via a planetary stage PS and a spur gear stage SRS. The modification option largely corresponds to the variant 14 , with the difference that in the planetary stage PS the sun gear SO is now fixed to the rotationally fixed component GG, while the ring gear HO is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the first spur gear SR1 of the spur gear stage SRS. Specifically, the ring gear HO and the first spur gear SR1 are preferably formed in one piece, in that the ring gear is equipped with teeth on an outer circumference. Otherwise, the modification option corresponds to 15 otherwise according to the variant 14 , so that reference is made to what has been described.

Furthermore shows 16 another possible modification of the gear G from the 2 until 5 and 7 until 10 , whereby the electric machine EM was also integrated via a spur gear stage SRS and a planetary stage PS. In contrast to the previous variant 15 The gear set RS is followed first by the spur gear stage SRS, while the planetary stage PS is provided in the power flow between the spur gear stage SRS and the electric machine EM. The planetary stage PS also includes the elements ring gear HO, planetary web PT and sun gear SO, with the planetary web PT rotatably supporting several planetary gears PR1 and PR2, each of which meshes with both the sun gear SO and the ring gear HO.

As in 16 can be seen, a first spur gear SR1 of the spur gear stage SRS is connected in a rotationally fixed manner by the gear set RS, this connection being made at the point at which the transmissions from the 2 until 5 and 7 until 10 each with a rotation-proof connection of the rotor R was completed. The first spur gear SR1 meshes with a second spur gear SR2 of the spur gear stage SRS, which is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the planetary web PT of the planetary stage PS. The ring gear HO is permanently fixed to the non-rotatable component GG, while the sun gear SO is non-rotatably provided on an input shaft EW of the electric machine EM.

Finally shows 17 another possible modification of the gear G from the 2 until 5 and 7 until 10 , with this modification option essentially following the previous variant 16 corresponds. The only difference is that the sun gear SO of the planetary stage PS is now permanently fixed to the non-rotatable component GG, while the ring gear HO of the planetary stage PS is non-rotatably connected to the input shaft EW of the electric machine EM. Otherwise, the modification option corresponds to 17 otherwise according to the variant 16 , so that reference is made to what has been described.

By means of the embodiments according to the invention, a transmission with a compact structure and good efficiency can be realized.
