ABSTRACT:
A tension decoupler includes first rupture members, arranged in parallel to each other, and second rupture members, arranged in parallel to each other and parallel to the first rupture members. The first rupture members and the second rupture members are designed to break only when the load applied to the decoupler device reaches or exceeds a predetermined load value, and the second rupture members are designed to have sufficient fatigue strength as long as the applied load does not reach the predetermined load value.
