A valve device for an automatic transmission for a vehicle, preferably for a motor or utility vehicle, is provided. According to the invention, the valve device is designed such that the valve device can achieve the establishment and separation of a fluid connection between an operating pressure side and an actuator pressure side, each in a state operated without pressure. Further, an automatic transmission having such a valve device and a corresponding method for controlling such a valve device are provided.

Valve device for a vehicle, automatic transmission and method for controlling a valve device

A hybrid module for a powertrain includes a drive, a first coupling section that couples the hybrid module to a transmission, and a second coupling section that couples the hybrid module to an internal combustion engine. The second coupling section includes a shifting arrangement having at least two shift elements which can take an initial and a shift position.

Hybrid module

A method for mounting the drive train components of a hybrid drive including providing an automatic transmission, which comprises a transmission casing and a transmission input shaft; a hybrid head, which is premounted as a separate assembly and which has a hybrid head casing, a rotor drive element and an output element; and an electric machine, which has a stator and a rotor, wherein the hybrid head casing is connected by flanges to the transmission casing and the output element is coupled in rotation to the transmission input shaft by means of a shaft-hub connection, and wherein the electric machine is subsequently installed in the hybrid head casing, wherein the stator is connected to the hybrid head casing and the rotor is connected to the rotor drive element.

A hybrid module includes a housing, an input intended for rotationally coupling to an internal combustion engine, an output intended for rotationally coupling to an input of a gearbox, an electric machine arranged in the housing and having a stator and a rotor arranged within the stator radially, a separation clutch and a torsional vibration damper. The separation clutch and the torsional vibration damper are arranged within the rotor in both the radial and axial directions.

A 9-speed planetary gear-automatic transmission includes precisely one gearbox input element, precisely one gearbox output element, precisely four planetary gear sets and precisely six shifting devices for selecting the individual gears of the planetary gear-automatic transmission.

9-speed planetary-gear automatic transmission

A planetary-gear automatic transmission, in particular a planetary-gear automatic transmission includes at least eight forward gear positions. For shifting the individual gear positions, shifting devices formed by clutches and/or brakes are provided. For actuating the shifting devices, shift actuators are provided which generate assigned actuating forces. The planetary-gear automatic transmission is constructed such that all shift actuators can be arranged or are arranged directly on or directly in the area of the assigned shifting devices.
