Abstract
A flexible all-steel shaft coupling with two connecting flanges which are connected by a laminated spring ring arranged between them. The laminated spring ring is arranged on clamping bolts by clamping bushes and is held at a distance from the flanges by spacer collars. A washer with a low-friction coating is arranged between the laminated spring ring and each of the spacer collars. The washers prevent the upper lamellae from wrapping as a result of the rotation of the spacer collars during the bracing of the laminated spring ring, this being the cause of premature breaking of the lamellae.
