20080072586, Mar 27, 2008
Filed:
Sep 26, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/527076
Inventors:
Matthew D. Hammond - Dearborn MI, US
Michael T. Berhan - Sylvania OH, US
Jeffrey E. Maurer - Commerce MI, US
Steve G. Thomas - Bloomfield Hills MI, US
Julie A. Sunstein - Ann Arbor MI, US
International Classification:
F16D 33/00
US Classification:
60330
Abstract:
An apparatus for supporting an electric power source in a transmission includes a transmission housing, and an electric machine including a rotor and a stator secured to the housing. A first member is secured to the rotor, extends radially toward an axis of rotation, and is formed with a first pilot surface. A second member, secured to the rotor and the housing, extends from the housing toward the axis and is formed with a second pilot surface that is aligned axially with the first pilot surface. An anti-friction bearing, located at an axial rearward side or axially frontward side of a torque converter, is engaged with the first pilot surface and the second pilot surface. A second balanced bearing is located either in the driving engine or the driven transmission.
