The element (8) comprises a central opening to be joined to the bolt (7) and three spokes attached to the housing (4). Eine Antrieb-Wandler-Einheit weist einen Antrieb (1) und einen Wandler (2) auf. Der Antrieb (1) weist eine Kurbelwelle (3) mit einem Kurbelwellenflansch (5) auf, der über ein axial weiches Übertragungselement (9) mit einer Gehäuseschale (4) des Wandlers (2) drehfest verbunden ist. Der Kurbelwellenflansch (5) weist weiterhin eine Mittenausnehmung (6) auf, in die ein Mittenzapfen (7) eingreift, der an der Gehäuseschale (4) des Wandlers (2) angeordnet ist. Zwischen dem Mittenzapfen (7) und der Mittenausnehmung (6) ist ein Dämpferelement (8) angeordnet, das aus einem dauerelastischen, nichtmetallischen Material besteht.
