Abstract
An apparatus transmitting torque among a first torque generative device, a second torque generative device and an output member includes a first planetary gear set including respective first, second and third members, a second planetary gear set including respective first, second and third members, the respective first member of the second planetary gear set mechanically coupled to the respective first member of the first planetary gear set. The first torque generative device is mechanically coupled to the respective second member of the first planetary gear set. The second torque generative device is mechanically coupled to the respective second member of the second planetary gear set, wherein the second torque generative device includes a grounding state wherein rotation of the respective second member of the second planetary gear set is prevented and a rotational state wherein rotation of the respective second member of the second planetary gear set is not prevented.
