Abstract

A drive module with parallel input axes for propulsive and torque-vectoring inputs is disclosed, which has a first input part that receives rotary power from a first power source and a second input part that receives rotary power from a second power source. The rotary power from the first power source is transmitted to a differential assembly to drive a pair of vehicle wheels. The rotary power isselectively provided by the second power source to provide the drive module with torque-vectoring capabilities in which equal but opposite moments are applied to the vehicle wheels. The axes of the first input part and the second input part are parallel one another.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to a drive module for a motor vehicle having parallel input axes for propulsion input and torque vectoring input. Background technique [0002] This section provides background information related to the present disclosure which is not necessarily prior art. [0003] US Patent Application Publication No. 2012 / 0058855 discloses a drive module having a first input receiving rotational power from a first power source, and a second input receiving rotational power from a second power source. Rotary power from the first power source is transmitted to a differential assembly to drive a pair of wheels. Rotary power is selectively provided by the second power source to provide the drive module with torque vectoring capability wherein equal but opposite torques are applied to the wheels. Because the first and second power sources are transverse to each other, the solution disclosed in US Patent Application Publication No. 2012 / 0...
