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.

A drive unit for a powertrain of an electrically driveable motor vehicle is disclosed having a first electrical machine and a second electrical machine and an output shaft, wherein a rotor of the second electrical machine is connected to the output shaft for conjoint rotation. The drive unit also has a disconnect clutch, by which a rotor of the first electrical machine for torque transmission is connectable to the output shaft, wherein the rotor of one of the electrical machines is at least indirectly supported radially on the rotor of the other electrical machine by at least one bearing.

A freewheel for blocking or interrupting a torque transmission of a motor vehicle comprises a first ring configured for the input and/or output of a torque and a second ring that is arranged substantially coaxially to the first ring and configured for the output and/or input of the torque. The freewheel includes a plurality of first blocking elements, movable between a blocking position and a freewheeling position, for blocking the first ring with the second ring in a circumferential direction in the blocking position and for interrupting a torque transmission between the first ring and the second ring in the freewheeling position. A decoupler is coupled to the second ring or to the first ring for damping rotational irregularities. The decoupler has a housing, mounted on the first ring or the second ring via a housing bearing, for providing a restoring torque directed against the rotational irregularity. A brake element, which can act indirectly or directly on the second ring and/or the first ring, is provided for damping the movement of the first ring and/or the second ring. The brake element is connected indirectly or directly to the housing of the decoupler in a rotationally fixed manner.
