Abstract:
A hybrid module is configured for arrangement in the torque path upstream from a transmission and downstream from an internal combustion engine. The hybrid module includes a torque converter and an electric motor including a rotor connected to the torque converter for driving the torque converter. The hybrid module also includes a connect/disconnect clutch configured for being actuated between an engaged orientation for drivingly connecting the internal combustion engine to an output of the connect/disconnect clutch for driving the torque converter and a disengaged orientation for drivingly disconnecting the internal combustion engine from the output of the connect/disconnect clutch. The torque converter includes a stator having stator blades and a stator friction brake actuatable between an engaged orientation locking rotation of the stator in at least a first rotational direction and a disengaged orientation unlocking rotation of the stator in the first rotational direction and a second rotational direction.
