Abstract
A clutch unit includes a drive element with a drive element outer toothing, an output element with an output element outer toothing, a linearly movable shift collar with an inner toothing engaged with the drive element outer toothing, and an actuator arranged to shift the shift collar from a decoupled position in which the inner toothing is disengaged from the outer element outer toothing to a coupled position in which the inner toothing is engaged with the outer element outer toothing. The actuator includes a pot-shaped cylinder component formed from a metal sheet and includes an opening. The actuator also includes a cover arranged on the cylinder component, opposite the opening, with a cover opening, a piston guided in the cylinder component, and a shift rod. The shift rod is coupled to the piston and to the shift collar, and passes through the opening and the cover opening.
