基辅工学院设计了一种新型弹性联轴器(附图)。它与人们熟悉的联轴器的不同点,在于它具有更高的减震性能和工作的平稳性。该联轴器由一个插入另一个间隙中的两个杯状半联轴器1和3组成,它们正好相反地做出尺寸相同的径向缺口。按直径D_1置于半联轴器1凸缘内部的两个弧形板5,将其凸出部分4沿宽度B放入半联轴器的缺口,并彼此构成间隙H。在弧形板间松动地装入一个弹性元件2,它是由内摩擦系数高的 Kiev Institute of Technology designed a new type of flexible coupling (with photos). It differs from familiar couplings in that it has higher damping performance and more stable work. The coupling consists of two cup-shaped half-couplings 1 and 3 which are inserted into the other gap, which diametrically opposite radial notches are made. The two arc-shaped plates 5, which are arranged on the inside of the flange of the half-coupling 1 by the diameter D_1, have their projections 4 placed along the width B in the notches of the half-coupling and form a gap H with one another. Loosely fitted between the curved plates is an elastic element 2 which is high in coefficient of internal friction
