Abstract
A driving arrangement with a free-wheel coupling has a coupling sleeve ( ) and a coupling hub ( ) rotatably supported in the coupling sleeve ( ). Both are connected, via locking pawls ( ), so that, during driving of the coupling hub ( ), a slaving of the coupling sleeve ( ) takes place. However, a faster rotation of the coupling sleeve ( ) is allowed so that the coupling sleeve ( ) can overtake the coupling hub ( ). Belleville springs ( ) achieve a breaking effect with large lagging masses. The Belleville springs ( ) are kept non-rotational relative to the coupling hub ( ) and are supported on the end faces ( ) of the coupling sleeve ( ). The Belleville springs ( ) are pre-tensioned by means of a friction face ( ).
