Hybrid Drive Chain and Hybrid Vehicle Equipped with Same
First Claim
1. Hybrid traction drive for a vehicle with a heat engine coupled to a mechanical assembly having a gearbox coupled to a differential, which is itself coupled to the driven wheels of the vehicle by their respective transmission shafts, and at least one electrical machine having a stator and a rotor, cooperating with the heat engine via the mechanical assembly in order to provide combustion and/or electrical drive to the driven wheels, the electrical machine being positioned between the differential and one of the driven wheels, surrounding the transmission shaft connecting the driven wheel to the differential, wherein the electrical machine is housed inside a body distinct from the mechanical assembly.

Abstract
The invention concerns a hybrid drive chain of a vehicle (1) comprising a heat engine (2) connected to a mechanical assembly (4) including a gearbox (5) coupled with a differential (6) itself coupled with the driven wheels (7G, 7D) of the vehicle (1) by their respective axle shafts (8G, 8D), and at least one electrical machine (3) including a stator (10) and a rotor (11), cooperating with the heat engine (2) via the mechanical assembly to provide heat and/or hybrid traction to the driven wheels (7G, 7D). The invention is characterized in that the electrical machine (3) is arranged between the differential (6) and one of the driven wheels (7D), by surrounding the axle shaft (8D) connecting the driven wheel (7D) to the differential (6).
