The invention relates to a drive assembly on a twin-clutch transmission for motor vehicles, including two clutches which are axially connected in succession in a transmission housing and are positioned between spaced-apart end walls of the transmission housing and which have each a preferably drum-shaped drive element which is driven by an input shaft of the transmission, with the clutches being in driving relationship, preferably alternatingly, via two preferably pot-shaped output elements with two output shafts in coaxial arrangement to the input shafts. According to the invention, the input shaft (14) which is rotatably mounted in the region of a first end wall (12a) is guided up to the second end wall (10a) located in opposition to the first end wall (12a) and is rotatably mounted there indirectly via the output shafts (24, 26) which are also rotatably mounted in the region of the second end wall (10a).
Drive assembly for a twin-clutch transmission for motor vehicles, comprising two clutches which are axially connected in succession in a transmission housing and are positioned between spaced-apart end walls of the transmission housing and which have each a drive element which is driven by an input shaft of the transmission, with the clutches being in driving relationship via two output elements, with two output shafts in coaxial arrangement to the input shaft, wherein the input shaft which is rotatably mounted in a region of a first one of the end walls is sized to extend to a second one of the end walls located in opposition to the first end wall and is rotatably mounted indirectly via the output shafts which are also rotatably mounted in a region of the second end wall.
