Apparatus for Producing a Frictional and/or Form-fitting Connection Between Two Components Which Are Arranged Such That They Can Be Moved Linearly or Rotated Relative to One Another

An apparatus for producing a frictional and/or form-fitting connection between first and second components for linear movement or are rotated relative to one another for transmitting forces and/or force moments acting between the first and second components in a linear and/or rotational manner, comprising the first component surrounding the second component at least sectionally with at least one inner wall facing the second component, and wherein the second component includes at least one active-face element that can be transferred in a force-loaded manner from a first position, in which the at least one active-face element is spaced apart from the at least one inner wall, into a second position, in which the at least one active-face element produces a frictional and/or form-fitting connection with the inner wall, and wherein

• the first component comprises a dovetail-shaped recess with two opposing lateral flanks which are directed obliquely to one another and correspond to the inner wall of the first component, and the second component comprises two active-face elements movable in a translatory or rotatory fashion with a restricted guidance, wherein the active-face elements engage the recess and are drivable by the converter material so that the active-face elements engage one lateral flank if the converter material changes by being supplied with energy.

An apparatus for producing a frictional and/or form-fitting connection between first and second components for independent rotation about a common rotational axis for transmitting forces and/or force moments acting between the first and second components in a rotational manner, wherein the first component includes at least one active face inclined relative to the rotational axis or orthogonally intersecting the rotational axis, and wherein the second component includes at least one active face so that face contact between the two active faces, resulting in a frictional and/or form-fitting connection between the first and second components, is producible by an axial extension of at least one of the two active faces comprising:

• a converter material, for generating a first axially directed force and a spring element for generating a second directional force, that is directed axially opposite to the first force, which is on one of the first and second components;
• and
• the converter material and the spring element are between two parts of one component, are axially movable relative to one another and are connected to be rotationally rigid.
