Elastic joint

An elastic joint comprising:

• an inner ring (1) provided with an axial opening (11) for mounting the joint on a shaft “(E)” and an outer ring (2) provided with an outer surface (21) for mounting the joint on a support (S) to be damped and metal wire cushions (3) arranged between the inner ring and the outer ring (2) and forming damping and anti-friction means;
• characterised in that:
• the inner ring (1) comprises an outer surface having:
• two opposite intermediate sections (13) having a decreasing cross-section towards opposite ends of said inner ring (1) and forming supporting zones for the metal wire cushions (3), and two end sections (14);
• and the outer ring (2) has an inner surface with two intermediate portions (22) having a decreasing cross-section towards opposite ends of the outer ring (2), facing the intermediate sections (13) of the inner ring (2) and forming the contact surfaces of the outer ring (2) with the metal wire cushions (3).
