Drive assembly

A drive assembly for a motor vehicle, comprising:

• a gearing,
• at least one friction clutch which is drivingly connected to the gearing and is configured for variable torque transmission between a clutch input part and a clutch output part,
• a housing with a gearing housing chamber for the gearing, a reservoir which lubricant is storable, and a clutch housing chamber for the friction clutch, wherein, during operation, lubricant is conveyable from at least one of the gearing housing chamber and the clutch housing chamber into the reservoir to a higher level due to rotary movement of a component rotating in the housing,
• a valve with a setting member for controlling a lubricant flow from the reservoir to the clutch housing chamber, wherein the setting member is movable by an actuating element with an actuating contour, wherein in the open state of the valve lubricant flows from the reservoir into the clutch housing chamber, and in the closed state of the valve lubricant is stored in the reservoir and the circulating lubricant quantity is reduced,
• an actuator for controlling the friction clutch and the valve wherein the actuator includes a ramp mechanism with a rotatably drivable setting ring and an at least rotatably supportable support ring, which have a ramp structure to convert a rotary movement of the setting ring into a translatory movement, and wherein the setting ring is drivingly connected to the actuating element,
• wherein the ramp structure and the actuating contour are designed such that by rotating the setting ring from an initial rotation angle, in which the setting ring and the support ring are arranged close to one another, to an intermediate rotation angle, the valve is fully opened and the friction clutch is transferred from a fully open position to a partially closed position, and by rotating the setting ring in a second rotation range beyond the intermediate rotation angle up to a final rotation angle, the torque that can be transmitted by the friction clutch is variably adjustable, with the valve remaining fully open.
