Abstract

Relates to a reinforcing unit and a running gear system with a reinforcing unit, comprising a first shell element and a second shell element, wherein the first shell element and the second shell element each comprise an engagement region on the tube side and an engagement region on the link side, wherein the first shell element and the second shell element each comprise a flange portion, wherein between the flange portion of the first shell element and the flange portion of the second shell element a tensile force can be established, which presses the first and the second shell element against an axle tube in such a manner that the reinforcing unit can be non-positively fixed on the axle tube, wherein the engagement region on the link side can be brought into engagement with a link unit.
