Patent ID: 8303460

Claim:
A connection of sheet metal components of a transmission, the connection, comprising: at least one form fit between at least one first sheet metal component and at least one second sheet metal component, and at the same time the form fit being formed by at least one tenon projecting out of the first sheet metal component, the tenon having an outer contour including an externally conical portion, said tenon engaging into an orifice on the second sheet metal component, said orifice at least partially matching the outer contour of the tenon, wherein the tenon engages behind the second sheet metal component at least at an undercut of the second sheet metal component, and the sheet metal components are connected unreleasably to one another at the undercut, wherein the tenon is bushed out of the material of the first sheet metal component such that a depression is formed in the first sheet metal component on a rear side of the tenon which faces away from the second sheet metal component, and wherein the depression is of internally cylindrical design, an axis of symmetry of the depression being oriented in a direction in which the tenon projects, and at a same time the depression having an inside diameter which corresponds to 0.5 to 1.5 times a depth, codirectional with the axis of symmetry, of the depression.
