Abstract
A device for securing a first machine element to a second machine element comprising a clamping sleeve disposed between said machine elements having first and second opposed clamping surfaces forming opposing angles .alpha. and .beta. with the axis of said sleeve, one of the machine elements having complementary clamping surfaces confronting and engaging said first and second clamping surfaces, the angles (.alpha., .beta.) formed between the sleeve axis and said opposed clamping surfaces being smaller than the friction angle in each associated clamping contact whereby relative rotation of said sleeve and one of the machine elements produces a clamping action over substantially the entire length of said sleeve.
