20120129638 | DRIVE TRAIN AND METHOD FOR OPERATING THE DRIVE TRAIN - A drive train with a combustion engine, electric machine, and a transmission with first and second partial transmissions. The electric machine is coupled via a planetary transmission to input shafts of the first and second partial transmissions. The combustion engine can be coupled, via a separation clutch, to the input shaft of the second partial transmission and, when the separation clutch is engaged, the engine is also connected, via the planetary transmission, to the input shaft of the first partial transmission. A bridging shift element interacts with the planetary transmission such that, when the bridging shift element is engaged, the electric machine and the input shafts of the first and second partial transmissions are torsionally fixed so that they all rotate together. When the bridging shift element is disengaged, there is no torsionally fixed connection and those component rotate at different rotational speeds. | 05-24-2012 |
