A method is provided for controlling an air conditioning compressor in a hybrid powertrain of a motor vehicle. The hybrid powertrain includes an internal combustion engine, a first electric machine, and a second electric machine electric machines and the internal combustion engine are selectively connected to the air conditioning compressor so as to function as a drive of the air conditioning compressor. At least one of the first electric second electric machine, or the internal combustion engine is selected as the drive is selected based on a selection by an occupant of the motor vehicle. The selected drive is actuated to drive the air conditioning compressor.

Method for controlling an air conditioning compressor in a hybrid powertrain, and hybrid powertrain

A shifting device for a hybrid drive system of a motor vehicle, with a centrally arranged shaft, a first gear wheel rotatably mounted relative to the shaft and a second gear wheel rotatably mounted relative to the shaft and offset along the shaft relative to the first gear wheel, a sliding sleeve slidably received directly in the first gear wheel and non-rotatably connected thereto, which sliding sleeve is configured such that, in a first displacement position, it connects the shaft in a rotationally fixed manner to the first gear wheel, while the second gear wheel is rotationally decoupled from the shaft, and in a second displacement position, it rotationally connects the shaft to both the first and second gear wheels, and in a third displacement position, it rotationally connects the two gear wheels to each other while the shaft is rotationally decoupled from the two gear wheels.

Shifting device for a hybrid drive system of a motor vehicle, drive system, and motor vehicle

A drive system for a hybrid motor vehicle with a motor shaft rotationally coupled to the output shaft of an internal combustion engine, a first and second electric motors with respective first and second rotor shafts arranged in a radially offset manner to each other, a drive part rotationally connected to the second rotor shaft and which can be rotationally connected to at least one wheel, and a transmission unit operatively installed between the motor shaft, the two rotor shafts, and the drive part. A shift device controls the shift position of the transmission unit such that the shift device rotationally connects the motor shaft to the first rotor shaft while the second rotor shaft is decoupled in a first shift position, the shift device rotationally connects the motor shaft both to the first and second rotor shafts in a second shift position, and the shift device rotationally connects the two rotor shafts together while the motor shaft is decoupled in a third shift position.

A hybrid module for a powertrain of a motor vehicle includes a rotational axis defining an axial direction, a housing, first and second support bearings, an intermediate shaft, a separating clutch, and a sensor device. The second support bearing is arranged at a distance from the first support bearing in the axial direction to form a receiving space therebetween. The intermediate shaft is mounted by the first support bearing and the second support bearing to be rotatable relative to the housing about the rotational axis. The separating clutch has a rotary component arranged to be coupled to an electric machine, and connected for conjoint rotation with the intermediate shaft. The sensor device includes at least one part arranged in the receiving space.

Hybrid module with integrated sensor device, and hybrid powertrain comprising a hybrid module

A hybrid module for a drive train of a vehicle includes an intermediate shaft configured for torque transmission from an internal combustion engine and/or an electric machine to a transmission. The shaft is mounted on a dividing wall by two bearings, wherein a securing element is provided on a transmission side of the dividing wall to fix an axial position of a torque transmission component that can be mounted on the intermediate shaft on a motor/engine side of the dividing wall.

Hybrid module for a drive train of a hybrid vehicle and such a drive train

A clutch arrangement for a drive train of a motor vehicle having a hybrid drive includes a first clutch, a second clutch, a central bearing, and a clutch actuator. The first clutch has a first clutch first rotating part and a plurality of connecting segments. The connecting segments are connected to one another for conjoint rotation in a coupled position of the first clutch. The second clutch has a second clutch first rotating part with a shaft region. The second clutch first rotating part is connected for conjoint rotation with the first clutch first rotating part. The central bearing is arranged on the shaft region. The clutch actuator is arranged to interact with the first clutch. The connecting segments are arranged radially to the outside of the clutch actuator. The clutch actuator is arranged radially to the outside of the central bearing. The first clutch, the clutch actuator and the central bearing are arranged at least partially overlapping one another in an axial direction.
