Abstract:
A drive system includes a first planetary device, a second planetary device and a connecting shaft directly coupled to the first planetary device, a first electromagnetic device at least selectively coupled to the first planetary device and including a first shaft, a second electromagnetic device directly coupled to the second planetary device and including a second shaft, a clutch positioned to selectively rotationally couple the second shaft to the connecting shaft, and an output shaft coupled to the first planetary device. The first planetary device, the second planetary device, the connecting shaft, the first shaft, the second shaft, and the output shaft are radially aligned. The connecting shaft extends through the second planetary device to the first planetary device. The second electromagnetic device is rotationally engaged with the first planetary device when the clutch is engaged.
