A bearing assembly of an electric drive assembly for a vehicle includes an insulating device having a sleeve with an electrically insulating coating, and a bearing device disposed in the sleeve. In an example embodiment, the sleeve has an inner peripheral surface and an outer peripheral surface, and the outer peripheral surface is formed by the electrically insulating coating. In an example embodiment, the sleeve is formed from steel, and the electrically insulating coating is formed from a plastic material having an electrically insulating property. In an example embodiment, the sleeve is designed as a cylinder having an end face with an outer side, and the electrically insulating coating is disposed on the outer side. In an example embodiment, the bearing device is a floating bearing axially movable relative to the sleeve.

Bearing assembly for integrating into an electric drive assembly for a vehicle, and electric drive assembly comprising the bearing assembly

A drive device for a motor vehicle has an electric drive machine which is operatively connected to a transmission via a driveshaft. The transmission has at least first and second planet gear stages and a differential stage. The first planet gear stage has a first planet gear set with planet gears rotatably arranged on a first planet gear carrier and mesh with a first sun gear and a first ring gear. The second planet gear stage has a second planet gear set with planet gears rotatably arranged on a second planet gear carrier and mesh with a second sun gear and a second ring gear. The planet gear stages are operatively connected to a double clutch device with first and second power-shift clutches, the ring gears are rigidly connected together to form a common ring gear, and the planet gear carriers are rigidly connected together to form a common planet gear carrier.

A drive device for a motor vehicle includes an electrical machine which is operatively connected to a transmission device via a drive shaft. The transmission device has at least a first and a second planetary stage and a differential stage. Each planetary stage includes a planet set having a plurality of planet gears, the planet gears being rotatably arranged on a planet carrier and meshing with a sun gear and with a ring gear. The second ring gear has external teeth which mesh with internal teeth of a ring gear cup fixed to a housing in a stationary manner.

An integrated planetary gearing system includes a reduction gear and a spur gear differential. First planets are arranged in a first planet plane. Second planets are arranged in a second planet plane. A planetary carrier includes a first carrier wall section, a second carrier wall section, and a third carrier wall section. The first and the second carrier wall section are spaced apart from one another axially and are formed by a base part. The third carrier wall section is formed by a cover element which is attached to the base part. The second carrier wall section carries a plurality of pockets, each receiving a planet of the second toothing plane. The cover element is attached to cover seat faces of the pocket bottoms, which cover seat faces in each case face away from the pocket interior.
