Abstract:
A connecting assembly comprising:a first component having an end toothing and a second component having an end toothing, wherein the end toothings each comprise teeth and gaps which are axially inserted into one another and circumferentially engage one another in a clearance-free way and wherein the teeth of the respective end toothings on an outer circumference each comprise outwardly opening circumferential grooves which are delimited by two flanks and which, when the respective end toothings are inserted into one another, together, form a circumferentially extending annular groove in which there is positioned a securing ring on the outside, and wherein the teeth at the first component and the second component, are each positioned within a cylindrical annular space and the gaps are positioned in pairs within two groups of continuous groove tracks which extend at a right angle relative to one another and which each pass through the respective cylindrical annular space twice, and wherein, in an end view, images of the teeth and gaps are the same at the first component and the second component, and wherein, starting from the corresponding images of the teeth and gaps at the first and second components, there are obtained matching complementary images at the teeth and gaps at the first and second components in an end view when the components are rotated relative to one another by 90Â° or 180Â°.
