Abstract
A propulsion system for an aircraft is provided. The propulsion system includes an engine including a first input shaft and a drivetrain coupled to the first input shaft. The drivetrain includes an output shaft, a gear assembly, an electric motor, and a second input shaft. The gear assembly includes a main gear mounted to the output shaft, and a bevel ring gear integrated on a face of the main gear. The main gear, the bevel ring gear, and the output shaft are rotatable about a first rotational axis. The electric motor includes a rotor rotatable about a second rotational axis. The second rotational axis is perpendicular to the first rotational axis. The second input shaft couples the rotor to the bevel ring gear. The second input shaft is rotatable about the second rotational axis.
