1-12. (canceled)
An arrangement comprising:
- a hollow shaft;
- an input shaft partially contained in the hollow shaft;
- and
- a clamping device, wherein the clamping device has a loose state in which the hollow shaft and the input shaft are removable from each other, and a fixed state in which the hollow shaft is connected to the input shaft,
- wherein
- during a transition from the loose state into the fixed state, the clamping device introduces forces which are directed radially to the hollow shaft into the hollow shaft at at least three discrete introduction points arranged along a circumference of the hollow shaft such that the hollow shaft bends in the direction of the input shaft at the introduction points and bends away from the input shaft between the introduction points.
