Abstract
The description refers to a torsionally flexible coupling with an outer rim (,) flexibly rotatable against a hub (,). To create favorable construction features, it is suggested to provide at least one ring-like compound body (,) between the hub (,) and the outer rim (,), consisting of at least one spiral layer (,) of an elastomer, with the threads of this spiral layer (,) being connected shear-resistant with a tensionally elastic and flexible intermediate layer (,), filling the spaces between the threads. The elasticity of tension and of shearing of this intermediate layer (,) are smaller than that of the elastomer layer (,).
