Elastic coupling

An elastic coupling (1) has a pair of bodies (2,3) that can rotate about a common axis and are mutually associated by a plurality of springs (7). Each spring has an end associated with the other body; the ends of the springs are associated with the bodies by floating engagement means (8). The floati...

More Information
Summary:An elastic coupling (1) has a pair of bodies (2,3) that can rotate about a common axis and are mutually associated by a plurality of springs (7). Each spring has an end associated with the other body; the ends of the springs are associated with the bodies by floating engagement means (8). The floating engagement means are provided by mating spherical surfaces between the spring and the seats (6) and allows to recover the misalignment caused by the variation of the distance between the seats, limiting the stresses and allowing the spring to work exclusively in an axial direction, without warping, contrary to conventional spring couplings, wherein the springs are inserted in simple cylindrical seats and must necessarily warp.
