Patent ID: 8888426

Claim:
A component assembly comprising a functional element of metal and a component ( 56 ) consisting of plastic, the functional element having a flange ( 14 ) of larger diameter form ing an attachment surface ( 12 ) and a centering section ( 16 ) arranged inside the attachment surface and extending away from the flange, wherein an adhesive ( 30 ) is arranged around the cylindrical section ( 16 ) and adjacent to the attachment surface ( 12 ), wherein the centering section ( 16 ) extends into a hole ( 58 ) of the component ( 56 ) and wherein the adhesive ( 30 ) forms an adhesive connection between the attachment surface ( 12 ) and the surface of the component ( 56 ) lying opposite to it; wherein the functional element is formed with the attachment surface ( 12 ) arranged radially inside a contact surface ( 40 ) and the attachment surface is set back relative to the contact surface ( 40 ) in an axial direction ( 64 ) of the centering section ( 16 ) with the contact surface ( 40 ) lying directly at the surface of the component ( 56 ); wherein the surface of the component facing the attachment surface ( 12 ) has a ring step ( 86 ) with a height which is smaller than the amount by which the attachment surface is set back relative to the contact surface.
