Abstract
A system of fastening a flywheel on an output end of a crankshaft of an internal combustion engine, the flywheel being combined into a single component with a clutch plate unit and a clutch disc. The fastening can be achieved with essentially axial joint surfaces on the output end on one hand, and on the flywheel on the other hand, wherein the joint surfaces are designed as tapered or cylindrical surfaces which are self-locking in the axial direction.
