  • Patent number: 9194443
    Abstract: The invention relates to a synchronizing device between two revolving components, comprising a clutch (3) between a hub (4) arranged on a shaft (1) in a rotationally fixed manner and a coupling member (2) that is rotatably mounted in relation to the hub (4), the clutch (3) having a selector sleeve (5) with an internal claw gear (6) which extends along the axial length of the selector sleeve (5) and by means of which claw gear the selector sleeve (5) is mounted in an axially displaceable manner on a claw rim (9) of the hub (4) and can be slid up onto a claw rim (9) of the coupling member (2) for coupling purposes. In order to provide advantageous constructional conditions it is proposed that the hub (4) forms at least one stop (19) for the selector sleeve (5) on the front side facing away from the coupling member (2), the stop (19) protruding radially over the claw rim (7) and the selector sleeve (5) receiving the stop (19) in a frontal stop recess (20).
