Abstract
A centrifugal coupling for connecting a driven rotary component with another rotary component has a pair of flyweights mounted on the driven component for pivoting about pivot axes which are so spaced from one another transversely of the axis of rotation of the rotary component that straight lines intersecting the pivot and center of gravity of the respective flyweight will extend parallel to a plane of symmetry passing through the axis of rotation intermediate the flyweights when the coupling is in an operating position in which it centrifugally couples the two components for joint rotation.
