Abstract
Electrical machine having an electrical component, which has a rotor component and a stator component and is arranged inside a housing. The housing has a first housing wall which surrounds the electrical component in the circumferential direction, with the housing having an accommodation space which extends radially outward from the first housing wall from the electrical component with respect to the rotation axis of the rotor component. The individual components of the power electronics for controlling the electrical machine are arranged inside the accommodation space.
Claims25
An electrical machine comprising
- an electrical component comprising a stator component and a rotor component, said rotor component being arranged to rotate about an axis of rotation,
- a housing having a first housing wall which surrounds said electrical component, said housing having an accommodation space radially outside of said first wall with respect to said axis of rotation, and
- power electronics for controlling said electrical machine, said power electronics comprising individual components arranged inside the accommodation space.
The electrical machine as claimed in 2 further comprising at least one cooling channel in at least one of said first and second housing walls.
A drive arrangement for a vehicle, said drive arrangement comprising an engine, a transmission, and an electrical machine arranged between the engine and the transmission, said electrical machine comprising
- an electrical component comprising a stator component and a rotor component, said rotor component being arranged to rotate about an axis of rotation,
