Abstract:
A motor vehicle drive shaft has a receptacle tube component with a receptacle internal diameter and a push-fit component with a push-fit external diameter. The push-fit external diameter is smaller than or equal to the receptacle internal diameter. The receptacle tube component and the push-fit component can be rotated about a common drive shaft rotational axis and extend along the latter in a longitudinal direction. The receptacle tube component and the push-fit component are connected to one another for the transmission of torque. A connecting component is provided, wherein the connecting component is connected in a torque-conducting manner to the receptacle tube component by way of a receptacle connection. The connecting component is connected to the push-fit component by way of a push-fit connection. At least one of the two connections is configured as a combined frictionally locking and positively locking shaft/hub connection.
