ABSTRACT:
The coupling comprises a tubular sleeve (1) having internal splines (3) and a shaft (7) with complementary splines which are fitted in and engaged with the splines (3) so that the shaft and sleeve are relatively axially slidable. In order to reduce angular play between the splines of the sleeve and the shaft, a spring in the form of a plate (9, 9') is elastically jammed between a transverse recess (11) formed in the shaft and the inner surface of the sleeve. The spring plate bears against the recess by a center portion of the plate and against the inner surface of the sleeve by its ends (13) which engage the flanks (15) of two of the splines (3) of the sleeve.
