Abstract
A gearwheel arrangement for a drive train of a motor vehicle includes a drive shaft, a gearwheel, and a slipping clutch. The gearwheel is seated on the drive shaft and includes a toothing system. The slipping clutch is disposed at a point on the gearwheel between the toothing system and the drive shaft. The slipping clutch opens if a limit torque to be transmitted between the drive shaft and the toothing system is exceeded. In an example embodiment, the slipping clutch has a shaft/hub connection with a shaft region and a hub region, and the shaft region is seated via a press fit on the hub region.
