ABSTRACT:
A flexible torque-transmitting element for tying the driven member of a flexible coupling to the driving member thereof includes a body of flexible material (such as rubber, or another elastomer) that has a rim zone. A fabric insert in said body of flexible material projects radially outwardly beyond said rim zone of said body of flexible material and forms a clamping zone situated outside said body of flexible material. Such a torque-transmitting element may be associated with annular clamping means that apply clamping pressure only against the portion of the fabric insert situated outside the body of flexible material. Preferably such a torque-transmitting element is associated with clamping means having two clamping zones, namely a first clamping zone applying a relatively large clamping pressure only against the portion of the fabric insert situated outside the body of flexible material, and a second clamping zone applying a relatively small clamping pressure directly against the body of flexible material.
