Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A gear assembly has a gear housing. A first component group is arranged in a first partial area within the gear housing. The first component group includes at least one sensor element and/or at least one actuator. A remote control device is coupled to the first component group so that signals can be exchanged by way of a bus system.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A transmission arrangement, comprising: a transmission housing; a bus system; a component group directly connected to said bus system, said component group being disposed in a first area within said transmission housing, said component group having at least one sensor element and/or at least one actuator; an in-situ control device directly connected to said bus system; and said bus system enabling a signal exchange between in-situ control device and said component group, and forming a direct physical connection between said in-situ control device and said component group. 2. The transmission arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said in-situ control device is arranged outside said transmission housing. 3. The transmission arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said in-situ control device is arranged inside said transmission housing. 4. The transmission arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said transmission housing has an outer wall and said in-situ control device is disposed on said outer wall of said transmission housing. 5. The transmission arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said component group comprises a communication interface. 6. The transmission arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said bus system is configured to couple said in-situ control device in terms of signaling exclusively to one or more bus users arranged inside said transmission housing. 7. The transmission arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said component group is a first component group and the arrangement includes at least one further component group disposed in a respective further area inside said transmission housing, wherein said at least one further component group includes at least one respective further sensor element and/or at least one respective further actuator and said at least one further component group is coupled in terms of signaling to said in-situ control device by way of said bus system. 8. The transmission arrangement according to claim 7 , wherein said further component group comprises a respective further communication interface.
