    Abstract: A coupling for connection between a first shaft and a second shaft includes a first coupling portion designed for connection to the first shaft, a second coupling portion connected to the first coupling portion for transmitting a drive torque and designed for connection to the second shaft, and a bush accommodated in a through-hole of an axial hub portion of at least one of the first and second coupling portions and made of an electrically non-conductive high-performance plastics material, for receiving the first shaft or second shaft associated with the at least one of the first and second coupling portions, wherein the through-hole has an internal circumference formed with a radial step.

    Abstract: A transmission cooling device includes a transmission housing part for housing rotating transmission elements and a fan, which is connected to the transmission housing part, for providing a cooling air flow against an outer side of the transmission housing part. The fan has a conveying element, which communicates with a hollow fan ring, for generating an operating flow within the fan ring. The fan ring communicates via at least one discharge opening with a volume provided radially within the fan ring in such a way that the operating flow generates the cooling air flow by a suction jet effect. Indirectly generating the cooling air flow with the aid of the operating flow generated by the conveying element in the hollow fan ring results in good cooling with a large flow cross section of the cooling air flow with small installation space requirement, thereby enabling space-saving cooling of a transmission.

    Abstract: A supporting device includes first and second supporting flanges coupled with first and second transmissions, respectively, and a support via which a supporting force is transmittable from the first supporting flange to the second supporting flange. The support includes a lever element which is coupled in an articulated manner with an attachment element on the first supporting flange and thus articulated with the first supporting flange, and a supporting element which is coupled in an articulated manner with the lever element and connected to the second supporting flange and which includes two spaced-apart supporting parts. The lever element is arranged partly between two spaced-apart attachment parts of the attachment element and partly between the supporting parts of the supporting element and is coupled in an articulated manner with the attachment element via the attachment parts and in an articulated manner with the supporting element via the supporting parts.

    Abstract: A rotationally elastic coupling has a first coupling part with elastomers. The elastomers are arranged in the first coupling part in such a way that the elastomers serve to transfer a force onto a second coupling part when the first coupling part and the second coupling part are connected to one another. In order to improve the identification of wear, the rotationally elastic coupling has a switching element that is arranged at least in part in a first elastomer of the elastomers. A method is provided for producing a first elastomer for a rotationally elastic coupling of this kind. A method is provided for identifying a wear state for a rotationally elastic coupling of this kind.
