ABSTRACT:
In a hybrid drive for a motor vehicle, a three-phase machine fed by a three-phase converter is coupled via the layshaft of the gearbox to a conventional internal-combustion engine drive train. Both the internal combustion engine and the three-phase machine can be of conventional design. In addition to the known operating modes of a hybrid drive, the three-phase machine serves as a synchronization aid for the gear change in that the layshaft is accelerated in a suitable manner during the shifting operation. As a result, the mechanical synchronization devices in the gearbox have virtually no friction work to perform and can be of correspondingly smaller dimensions.
