ABSTRACT:
The torque transmitting connecting element, for example constituted by a flange, comprises a small number of pairs of bearing planes which are angularly spaced apart. The two planes of each pair are convergent in a direction away from the connecting face of the element and constitute the two flanks of a channel or of a projection which has a constant trapezoid cross-sectional shape which is symmetrical relative to a plane containing the axis of rotation of the element. Such elements, when they are interconnected in a torque-transmitting device, cooperate solely by their pairs of bearing planes. Bolts or a nut clamp these two elements together.
The invention is for example applicable to automobile vehicle transmissions.
