Abstract
There is provided a device for the mechanical transmission of forces between a first input element and a second output element, characterised in that it comprises an input member (12) connected to the first element, an output member (14) connected to the second element and a force transmission block (16) which is interposed between these two block members (12, 14) and is capable of experiencing elastic deformation under the action of the compressive forces exerted on it by the two members when these are displaced relative to one another in the main force transmission direction (X--X), and in that it comprises a controlled means (24) for varying the rigidity of the force transmission block (16) in the main direction (X--X) by exerting a control force (FC) on it.
