  • Patent number: 10502266
    Abstract: A torque transmission arrangement in a motor vehicle drive train, having a radially inner shaft and a radially outer hub, which are joined together in torque-transmitting manner by a plug-in toothed gearing with play, in which the plug-in gearing, and shaft outer teeth cooperate with hub inner teeth. In order to avoid gear teeth clattering, and to provide a freedom from play in the plug-in gearing, a spring element is provided, with which the shaft and can be braced against each other. In order to produce the freedom from play, the hub includes a support portion against which the spring element is supported with a spring force, building up a tilting moment by which the hub can tilt with respect to the shaft in the axial direction.
