Abstract
A coupling is for the connection, that is radially elastic but torsion resistant, of two component parts. The coupling includes base elements and a plurality of tabs formed integrally with the base elements at node areas. Each tab has two support points that are at a distance from one another in the circumferential direction. The node areas form the connection of the tabs to the base elements. Both the node areas and the tabs are configured such that they are flexurally softer than the base elements.
