A torque transmission arrangement in a motor vehicle drive train, having a radially inner shaft and a radially outer hub, which are joined together in torque-transmitting manner by a plug-in toothed gearing with play, in which the plug-in gearing, and shaft outer teeth cooperate with hub inner teeth. In order to avoid gear teeth clattering, and to provide a freedom from play in the plug-in gearing, a spring element is provided, with which the shaft and can be braced against each other. In order to produce the freedom from play, the hub includes a support portion against which the spring element is supported with a spring force, building up a tilting moment by which the hub can tilt with respect to the shaft in the axial direction.

An interference apparatus is provided for a motor shaft transmission assembly. The interference apparatus may include split-ring shells and a retaining device. The interference apparatus may be mounted to an intermediate sleeve of the motor shaft transmission assembly. The interference apparatus is configured to prevent the loss of certain motor shaft transmission assembly components downhole in the event of a failure of the motor transmission due to dynamic loads.

A joint assembly includes a first member having splines formed therein. A second member includes splines formed thereon and is coupled to the first member. The splines of the first member engage the splines of the second member. An access window is formed on the first member. A ring retains the first member to the second member. A seal extends across a joint between the first member and the second member and covers the access window. A portion of the ring is accessible through the access window following removal of the seal, where the ring can be manipulated to release the first member from the second member.

The present invention relates to a turbine engine comprising a wheel, (2) mounted on a shaft (4), and a disk (18), adjacent to the wheel (2) and mounted on the same shaft while being rotated by the latter. The disk (18) is made of a material having a density greater than that of the material used to manufacture the wheel (2). The invention is of use in a compressor/turbine.
