COUPLING Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC F16D3/64 

FIELD: machine building.

SUBSTANCE: coupling comprises two half-couplings, a main resilient intermediate element and an additional resilient intermediate element. The central part of the main resilient intermediate element is attached to one half-coupling. The additional resilient intermediate element is set symmetrically to at least one main resilient intermediate element, with at least three flat elements coupled with the central part, inclined to the longitudinal coupling axis and connected to the support sections. The central part of the additional resilient intermediate element is attached to the other half-coupling. The support sections of the main and additional resilient intermediate elements are connected to each other.

EFFECT: increased range of compensation characteristics at radial, axial and angular displacement of the ends of the shafts being coupled.
