ABSTRACT:
A joint inserted between a driving member and a driven member, such as a pair of substantially coaxial shafts or a shaft and a flywheel, comprises a stack of annular steel foils each having an even number of peripherally equispaced webs which are alternately secured to the two members via respective pairs of screws. The webs are interconnected by integral strips in the form of outwardly and/or inwardly bulging lobes enabling relative angular and radial shifting of the two members without exertion of a significant axial force upon them. The screws pass through mounting holes in the webs whose distance from the stack axis is greater than half the maximum radius of the foils.
