TRANSMISSION FOR A VEHICLE, WITH ELECTRIC GENERATOR AND/OR MOTOR

摘要

A dual clutch transmission has an electrical machine (25) coupled to the input shafts (15, 16) thereof via one-way clutches (31, 32). The electrical machine acts as a generator, and can be driven at high speed by the input shaft which is not transmitting engine torque. The electrical machine may also act as a motor to start an internal combustion engine via an automatic one-way clutch and reverse speed ratio.
