A torque transmission mechanism for an internal combustion engine, adapted to transmit a starting torque from a starter motor to a crankshaft of the internal combustion engine. The torque transmission mechanism includes a ring gear that transmits the starting torque, a one-way clutch disposed between the ring gear and the crankshaft, a bearing including a first ring coupled in rotation with the gear ring and a second ring coupled in rotation with the crankshaft and a front plate for coupling in rotation the crankshaft with the one-way clutch. The front plate is coupled in rotation with the crankshaft via the second ring of the bearing, by welding along a direction parallel to a central axis of the second ring of the bearing.
