Abstract
A hub assembly for a hybrid module having a first and a second connection partner arranged coaxially with one another, the first connection partner has a first bearing portion and the second connection partner has a second bearing portion, and a plurality of connecting elements. The first and the second bearing portion have receiving openings for receiving the connecting elements. The first and the second connection partner are prepositioned with respect to one another via a form-fitting connection such that the receiving openings in the first and the second bearing portion are each oriented in pairs in a positionally correct manner with respect to one another in the circumferential direction about the main axis H.

A hub assembly, comprising:
- a first connection partner having a first contact portion;
- a second connection partner having a first contact portion a second contact portion;
- wherein the first connection partner and the second connection partner are arranged coaxially with respect to each other with respect to a common main axis;
- a plurality of connection elements, wherein the first connection partner and the second contact portion each have a plurality of receiving openings configured to receive a respective connection element, wherein a respective connection element is guided through a respective receiving opening of the first contact portion and through a respective receiving opening of the second contact portion such that the first connection partner and the second connection partner are connected to each other for conjoint rotation via the plurality of connection elements;
- a form-fitting connection configured to preposition the first connection partner and the second connection partner such that the respective receiving openings of the first and of the second contact portion are each oriented in pairs in a positionally correct manner with respect to one another in a circumferential direction about a main axis.
A hybrid module for a vehicle comprising:
- a hub assembly, comprising:
- a first connection partner having a first contact portion;
- a second connection partner having a first contact portion a second contact portion;
- wherein the first connection partner and the second connection partner are arranged coaxially with respect to each other with respect to a common main axis;
- a plurality of connection elements, wherein the first connection partner and the second contact portion each have a plurality of receiving openings configured to receive the plurality of connection elements, wherein a respective connection element is guided through a respective receiving opening of the first contact portion and through a respective receiving opening of the second contact portion such that the first connection partner and the second connection partner are connected to each other for conjoint rotation via the plurality of connection elements;
- a form-fitting connection configured to preposition the first connection partner and the second connection partner such that the respective receiving openings of the first and of the second contact portion are each oriented in pairs in a positionally correct manner with respect to one another in a circumferential direction about a main axis;
- wherein the first connection partner is configured as a hub component for arranging on a shaft for conjoint rotation or as a flange component for connecting to a further component for conjoint rotation, and the second connection partner is configured as:
- a disk carrier for a multi-disk clutch or
- a blade wheel for a torque converter, or
- a rotor carrier for an electric machine.
A method for mounting a hub assembly, comprising:
- providing a first connection partner having a first contact portion;
- providing and prepositioning a second connection partner having a second contact portion with respect to the first connection partner via a form-fitting connection to orient receiving openings of the first contact portion and the second contact portion in pairs in a positionally correct manner with respect to one another in a circumferential direction about a main axis;
- inserting in each case one connection element into respective receiving openings oriented in pairs in a positionally correct manner with respect to one another, in order to connect the first connection partner and the second connection partner to each other for conjoint rotation.
