Abstract: A torque limiting tolerance ring is disclosed and can include a generally cylindrical body having a sidewall. The sidewall can include an unformed section. A plurality of projections can extend from the unformed section of the sidewall and the plurality of projections can be arranged in a first circumferential row and a second circumferential row. The torque limiting tolerance ring can include a frangible portion that can extend circumferentially around the tolerance ring between the first and second rows of projections.

Abstract: An assembly including an outer member; an inner member; and a tolerance ring disposed between the inner member and the outer member, wherein the tolerance ring is a split ring comprising opposing edges, where the edges engaged with at one of the inner member or the outer member so as to prevent or restrict movement between the tolerance ring and at least one of the inner member or the outer member, or where the tolerance ring is deformed as installed between the inner member and the outer member and forms at least one buckled region in the tolerance ring due to an interference fit between the inner member and the outer member, where in an uninstalled state, the buckled region is absent.

Abstract: A tolerance ring has a band with outwardly extending corrugated protrusions forming waves that engage an outer surface of a shaft. At one end of the tolerance ring is an inwardly flared guide surface extending axially and radially from the band. The guide surface acts as a tapered entrance to a bore of a housing to assist during assembly.
