Abstract
A membrane-type coupling includes an input flange and an output flange which are interconnected via membrane packs in order to transmit torque in such a way that an input membrane pack is braced to the input flange, two output membrane packs that are connected in parallel are braced to the output flange, and the membrane packs are braced to one another with the aid of a clamping set composed of clamping rings. In order to reduce the volume and weight of such a membrane-type coupling, the input membrane pack is disposed between the two output membrane packs.
