Abstract
A torque transmitting system, a drive unit, and a drive assembly are provided. The torque transmitting system includes a torque transmitting element and a support element which supports it via rotary bearings. The torque transmitting element has a first connection device for coupling to a first assembly in a rotationally fixed manner and a second connection device for coupling to a second assembly. One of the two elements forms a substantially hollow cylindrical shoulder, and the respective other element forms the outer cylindrical face and, correspondingly thereto, the inner face of a hollow cylinder radially outwards. The shoulder is arranged between the outer face and the inner face in a radial direction. A first rotary bearing is arranged between the outer face and the shoulder, and a second rotary bearing is arranged between the shoulder and the inner face. By using the torque transmitting system, less axial installation space is.
