Abstract

An arrangement for an internal combustion engine, including a flywheel connectable the crankshaft of the internal combustion engine, a starter generator arranged in a housing of the flywheel, and a friction clutch, which connects the flywheel to a transmission. An intermediate piece is fastened to the output side of the flywheel, such that a torque-transmitting fastening of the intermediate piece to the flywheel is arranged radially to the inside of a torque-transmitting fastening of the intermediate piece to the friction clutch, with respect to the radial spacing from the axis of rotation of the flywheel, and that the intermediate piece forms the abutment for a friction lining of the friction clutch at an abutment surface.
