The invention relates to a device () for the transmission of power between a shaft () of a heat engine () and a wheel () axle shaft () of a motor vehicle. The inventive device () comprises at least one electrical machine () comprising a machine shaft () and a mechanical pump () comprising a pump shaft (). The shaft () of the engine () and the machine shaft () are connected to the pump shaft () by means of a mechanism () comprising two free wheels. The connection between the pump () and the shafts () of the transmission device is such that the pump () can be driven in any vehicle operating mode.

The invention essentially relates to a method for blocking wheels of a vehicle when stopped in which a transmission device () is placed between an output () of a heat engine () and a wheel () axle shaft (). This device () comprises an input shaft () connected to the output () of the engine (), an output shaft () connected to the wheel axle shaft (), and at least one electrical machine (). The device also comprises a mechanical assembly () interconnecting the input shaft (), the output shaft () and the shaft () of the machine. This assembly () is connected to a bridge () that, in turn, is connected to the wheel () axle shaft (). The invention provides that, in order to block the wheels when the vehicle is stopped and to limit an observable torque on the elements of the assembly (), the wheel axle shaft is blocked by the mechanical assembly.

The invention relates to, in essence, a switching device () for a motor vehicle. This switching device comprises two idler gears () and a claw (). This claw () assures, by displacement, a selective connection of a drive shaft () to one of the two idler gears (). According to the invention, the claw () comprises axial protrusions () for simultaneously connecting it to the two idler gears (). To this end, the gears () each have axial projections (). The protrusions () are designed for entering the spaces made between the projections (). The inventive switching device () is preferably used with a hybrid transmission device ().
