Coupling

The coupling according to claim 18, characterized in that the first pivot bearing axis (27) and the second pivot bearing axis (27d) are aligned parallel to one another.

A coupling (10, 10a, 10b) for transmitting torques from a drive element (11) to a driven element (12), wherein the coupling comprises a drive-side connector (13), such as a flange, with a plurality of drive-side fastener (15a, 15b, 15c), which are arranged about a drive-side axis of rotation (17) which is assigned to the drive-side connector, and which comprises a load-side connector (14), such as a flange, with a plurality of load-side fastener (16a, 16b, 16c) and with connecting elements (19, 19a, 19b, 19c), such as links, which on the one hand are arranged on a drive-side fastener and on the other hand on a load-side fastener by means of a articulation joint (20), characterized in that the drive-side fastener and the load-side fastener which is coupled to the former by means of a connecting element is arranged with respect to the drive-side axis of rotation circumferentially spaced from one another by 80° to 100°, in particular by 85° to 95°, further particularly by substantially 90°, and in that the connecting element (19) is designed torsionable in such a manner that its first end (33) which is connected at the drive-side fastening point in an articulated manner is rotatable about a longitudinal center axis (38) of the connecting element on the end (34) which is connected to the load-side fastening point in an is articulated manner.

A coupling (10, 10a, 10b) for transmitting torques from a drive element (11) to a driven element (12), wherein the coupling comprises a drive-side connector (13), such as a flange, with a plurality of drive-side fastener (15a, 15b, 15c), which are arranged about a drive-side axis of rotation (17) assigned to the drive-side connector, and which comprises a load-side connector (14), such as a flange, with a plurality of load-side fastener (16a, 16b, 16c), and with connecting elements (19, 19a, 19b, 19c), such as links, which on the one hand are arranged on a drive-side fastener and on the other hand on a load-side fastener by means of a articulation joint (20), characterized in that the drive-side fastener and the load-side fastener which is coupled to the former by means of a connecting element is arranged with respect to the drive-side axis of rotation circumferentially spaced from one another by 80° to 100°, in particular by 85° to 95°, further particularly by substantially 90°, and in that the articulation joint (20) comprises a pivot bearing (24) allowing a rotary movement only about one pivot bearing axis (27) and/or a self-aligning roller bearing and/or a self-aligning ball bearing.
