A mechanical connection unit for fastening an electrical coupling element to an interconnection ring of an electric machine. The connection unit includes a fixing component, which can be interlockingly and/or frictionally positioned on the interconnection ring, and a receiving component, which is rotatably mounted on the fixing component and is provided for releasably fixing the electrical coupling element. The receiving component can be rotated from a first position to a second position for removal of the electrical coupling element.

Mechanical connection unit, stator and electric machine

A hybrid module includes a housing with a multiple clutch accommodated therein having a first, a second and a third clutch device and a support in an axial end position, and an electric machine which is arranged in an axially parallel manner on the housing and is coupled to the multiple clutch via a gear connection which transmits a torque. The housing is closed axially either by a housing cover portion axially and radially adjoining the support or by a transmission wall, axially adjoining the support, of a transmission connected downstream. A lubricant to be delivered to the multiple clutch can be delivered to the support either radially via at least one feed conduit or axially via at least one feed conduit.

Hybrid module

The invention relates to a hybrid module including a clutch, an electric machine, an internal combustion engine end, a transmission end, and a housing that includes a radially extending housing section located axially next to the electric machine at the internal combustion engine end as well as an axially extending housing section surrounding at least part of the hybrid module; the housing has two separate parts, the first one of which forms the radially extending housing section and the second one of which forms the axially extending housing section. The invention further relates to a method for manufacturing a hybrid module of this type.
