Abstract
An overload control coupling between two rotating machine elements, particularly the driving part and the driven part of a coaxial shaft mechanism with at least two essentially semi-cylindrical extensions radially arranged at the interface of the coupled machine elements and uniformly distributed over the circumference, the extensions each comprising portions from the coupled machine elements, which portions form cylinders having a separation plane or interface parallel with the rotation plane of the machine elements, the extensions being embraced by annular power-transmitting carrier links connecting the machine elements. In the case of overload, the machine elements may separate and disrupt the connection by the breaking of the carrier links at predetermined excessive stress levels.
