Abstract: A flexible coupling includes a flexure, a first drive member defining an axis and connected to the flexure, and a second drive member. The second drive member defines an axis and is connected to the flexure on a side of the flexure opposite the first drive member. An angular stop is fixed within the first drive member, extends through a portion of the second drive member, and is arranged to limit angular misalignment of the first drive member axis relative to the second drive member axis while transmitting torque between the first and second drive members.

Abstract: Two embodiments of an improved connection between an engine output shaft and a transmission input shaft reduce or eliminate axial shaft loading and spin losses. In a first embodiment, the transmission input shaft includes an annular flange which is received within a slightly larger annulus or a plurality of axially extending tabs from the engine flex plate. After the transmission and engine are assembled, a plurality of fasteners are installed in radial openings in the flex plate annulus or tabs and extend into threaded openings in the annular flange. Since the output and input shafts are connected after the engine and transmission are assembled there is essentially no deflection of the flex plate, no axial loads on the shafts and no spin losses. In a second embodiment, a plurality of axially oriented threaded fasteners extend through openings in the flex plate and are received within nuts in a transmission drive plate. The nuts include eccentric flanges and are retained in the drive plate by snap rings. This eccentricity creates a reaction torque when the threaded fasteners are tightened. Because the nuts are free to travel and accommodate a small axial distance, deflection of the flex plate does not occur.

Abstract translation: 发动机输出轴和变速器输入轴之间改进的连接的两个实施例减少或消除轴向轴负载和旋转损失。 在第一实施例中，变速器输入轴包括环形凸缘，该环形凸缘被容纳在来自发动机弯曲板的稍大的环形空间或多个轴向延伸的凸缘内。 在传动装置和发动机组装之后，多个紧固件安装在柔性板环形或凸片中的径向开口中，并延伸到环形凸缘中的螺纹开口中。 由于在发动机和变速器组装后输出轴和输入轴连接在一起，基本上没有弯曲板的挠曲，轴上没有轴向载荷，并且没有自旋损耗。 在第二实施例中，多个轴向定向的螺纹紧固件延伸穿过柔性板中的开口并被接收在传动驱动板内的螺母内。 螺母包括偏心凸缘，并通过卡环保持在驱动板中。 当螺纹紧固件拧紧时，该偏心度产生反作用力矩。 因为螺母自由行进并且容纳小的轴向距离，所以不会发生挠性板的挠曲。

Abstract: A coupling for transmitting torque between a driving element and a driven element, one of which is rotatable about an axis an formed with an annular array or mounting holes centered on the axis, has an elastomeric ring centered on the axis and having a dished face concave toward and directed axially at one of the elements and an opposite generally planar face directed axially at the other of the elements. Respective face plates conform and are vulcanized to the faces. Formations serve for connecting the face plate of the planar face directly to the other element. An annular and thin coupling disk centered on the axis has an outer periphery and an inner periphery and an inner face turned toward the elastomeric ring and an outer face turned away therefrom. Bolts secure the disk outer periphery directly to an outer edge of the face plate of the dished face.

Abstract: A flexible disk for connecting a transmission shaft to rotate with a mechanical part, the flexible disk being suitable for forming rotary motion about an axis of rotation and including in succession going from its center towards its periphery an empty central zone (10), a circular base (20), a transition zone (30) having an outer face (32) and an inner face (31), and then a peripheral collar (41). The transition zone presents a minimum thickness (e1) at the edge of the peripheral collar (40), the minimum thickness being determined with the help of the following thickness relationship in which “e” represents the thickness of the transition zone at a first distance “r” from the axis of rotation, “Q” is a constant that depends on the misalignment, “C” is the torque applied to the transmission shaft, “r” is the first distance, and “R” is the radius of the empty central zone: e = 1 2  r 2  ( Q C - 2  r r 4 - R 4 )
