Abstract

A hybrid drive module for a motor vehicle includes at least one clutch and at least one electric machine. The clutch has an outer disk carrier and an inner disk carrier. Outer disks are disposed on the outer disk carrier and inner disks are disposed on the inner disk carrier. The outer disk carrier can be connected and/or is connected operatively to a rotor of the electric machine and a transmission input shaft. The inner disk carrier can be connected and/or is connected operatively to an internal combustion engine and a dual-mass flywheel and a centrifugal force pendulum are disposed spatially separated from one another. Torque vibrations are reduced by virtue of the fact that the centrifugal force pendulum is connected operatively to the inner disk carrier.

Claims (19)

1. A hybrid drive module for a motor vehicle, the hybrid drive module comprising:

at least one electric machine having a rotor;

a transmission input shaft;

at least one clutch having an outer disk carrier, an inner disk carrier, outer disks disposed on said outer disk carrier and inner disks disposed on said inner disk carrier;

said outer disk carrier being at least one of operatively connected or configured to be operatively connected to said rotor and to said transmission input shaft;

said inner disk carrier being at least one of operatively connected or configured to be operatively connected to an internal combustion engine; and

a dual-mass flywheel and a centrifugal force pendulum being spatially separated from one another, said centrifugal force pendulum being operatively connected to said inner disk carrier.

2. The hybrid drive module according to claim 1 , wherein said centrifugal force pendulum is at least one of disposed or secured directly on said inner disk carrier.

3. The hybrid drive module according to claim 1 , wherein said dual-mass flywheel is operatively coupled to said inner disk carrier.

4. The hybrid drive module according to claim 1 , wherein said outer disk carrier is substantially L-shaped or C-shaped.

5. The hybrid drive module according to claim 1 , wherein said outer disk carrier is a rotor carrier having a periphery being at least one of operatively connected or coupled to said rotor of said electric machine.

6. The hybrid drive module according to claim 1 , which further comprises:

at least one bearing element;

said electric machine having a cooling jacket with a flange; and

said outer disk carrier being at least partially substantially C-shaped and being supported on said flange by said at least one bearing element.

7. The hybrid drive module according to claim 1 , wherein said electric machine has a cooling jacket with a flange, and said clutch has an input shaft supported on said flange.

8. The hybrid drive module according to claim 1 , wherein said outer disk carrier at least partially delimits a space for receiving said centrifugal force pendulum.

9. The hybrid drive module according to claim 1 , which further comprises a driving disk operatively connecting said outer disk carrier to said transmission input shaft.

10. The hybrid drive module according to claim 1 , wherein said centrifugal force pendulum is at least one of force-lockingly connected, materially connected or form-lockingly connected to said dual-mass flywheel.
