The invention relates to the field of mechanical engineering and is designed to transmit torque from a driving shaft to a driven shaft. The device consists of eccentrics, secured in a number of not less than three to each of the shafts, and cable-type connecting rods. The eccentrics may be mounted at equal intervals or, in order to reduce vibrations, offset by up to 50 degrees of angular rotation. The cable-type connecting rods connect via bearings the eccentrics of the driving and driven shafts and operate solely in tension. The use of cable-type connecting rods makes it possible to increase the specific loads, which leads to a reduction in weight of the connecting rods and counterweights. From four to twelve eccentrics are secured to each of the shafts in order to increase the uniformity of torque transmission to the driven shaft.
A device for the transfer of torque from a driving shaft to a driven shaft, equipped with eccentrics, secured in a quantity not less than three to each of the shafts, and connecting rods, which via bearings connect the eccentrics of the driving and the driven shafts, unique because to permit a greater specific load and weight reduction of the linear moving masses, non-rigid elements—cables, which only operate in tension—are used as flexible connecting rods;
Device for the transfer of torque per p.1, unique because in order to improve uniformity of torque transfer to the driven shaft, from four to twelve eccentrics are mounted on each of the shafts.
