PARK LOCK FOR DRIVE MODULE

摘要

A drive module with a motor, a transmission and differential assembly and a park lock. The transmission and differential assembly is driven by the output shaft of the motor. The transmission and differential assembly is operable in at least one mode for driving at least one of a first output member, a second output member and the differential case. The park lock includes a plunger that is movable between a first position and a second position. The drive module can be operated in a first mode such that the plunger is in the first position and inhibits rotation of the rotor relative to the stator to thus inhibit rotation of the first and second output members. The drive module can also be operated in a second mode such that the plunger is in the second position and does not inhibit rotation of the rotor relative to the stator so that it does not inhibit rotation of the first and second output members.

1. A drive module comprising:
first and second output members; a motor having a stator and a rotor with an output shaft; a transmission and differential assembly driven by the output shaft, the transmission and differential assembly having a transmission assembly and a differential assembly, the differential assembly having a differential case, a first differential output and a second differential output, the transmission and differential assembly being operable in at least one mode for driving at least one of the first output member, the second output member and the differential case; and a park lock comprising a plunger that is movable between a first position and a second position, wherein when the plunger is in the first position the plunger inhibits rotation of the rotor relative to the stator, and wherein when the plunger is in the second position, the plunger does not inhibit rotation of the rotor relative to the stator.
