All-wheel drive vehicle
First Claim
1. An all-wheel drive vehicle (1) havinga drive engine (5),at least two vehicle axles (2, 3), anda transmission unit (7) for variable distribution of drive torque from the drive engine (5), in a longitudinal direction of the vehicle, between the vehicle'"'"'s axles (2, 3), the transmission unit (7) having a transmission input shaft (10) and at least two transmission output shafts (11, 12, 13), at least two planetary gearsets (14, 15, 18) and an electric machine (16) arranged between two mutually connected shafts (14A, 15A) of the planetary gearsets (14, 15) for the variable distribution of torque delivered by the transmission input shaft (10) between the at least two transmission output shafts (11, 12, 13) as a function of a torque produced by the electric machine (16), the electric machine (16) actively communicating with the transmission unit (7) in an area of a connection between the two mutually connected shafts (14A, 15A) of the planetary gearsets (14, 15), and the planetary gearsets (14, 15) having different transmission ratios such that, during a direct start, the electric machine (16) is driven by virtue of a speed difference between the two mutually connected shafts (14A, 15A) of the planetary gearsets (14, 15).

Abstract
A vehicle with a drive engine, with at least two vehicle axles and a transmission unit for variable distribution of drive torque from the drive engine in the vehicle'"'"'s longitudinal direction between the vehicle'"'"'s axles. The transmission unit is made with an input shaft and at least two output shafts, at least two planetary gearsets and an electric machine arranged between two mutually connected shafts of the planetary gearsets for distribution of the torque delivered via the transmission input shaft between the transmission output shafts as a function of a torque produced by the electric machine. The electric machine is in active connection with the transmission unit connecting between the two interconnected shafts of the planetary gearsets and the planetary gearsets are made with different transmission ratios so that the electric machine is driven by virtue of a speed difference between the actively interconnected shafts of the planetary gearsets.
