Abstract
A coupling assembly () and method can include a first rotatable member () and a second rotatable member () defining a cylindrical hub portion having a plurality of springs () interposed between the cylindrical hub portion of the second rotatable member () and the first rotatable member () for transferring rotational torque between the first and second rotatable members. A plurality of load-bearing surfaces () associated with the first rotatable member () are engageable by the plurality of springs () to accommodate radial clearances () between the first rotatable member () and the cylindrical hub portion while providing rotational drive torque from the first rotatable member () to the second rotatable member () through the plurality of springs ().
