  • Publication number: 20100239365
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device (1) for frictionally coupling two coaxial components (4, 5, 41, 42), especially two shafts (41, 42) or a shaft (4) and a hub (5). Said device comprises a first, inner coupling element (2) having a conical, peripheral surface (22) and a second, outer coupling element (3) having a conical, inner peripheral surface (32, 52). The two coupling elements (2, 3) are suitable to be reversibly slid one onto the other in the direction of a longitudinal axis (11), thereby being elastically deformed in the radial direction in such a manner that the conical peripheral surfaces (22, 32, 52) come to rest one on another, and the two coaxial components (4, 5, 41, 42) are frictionally interconnected via the coupling elements (2, 3) owing to the radial forces caused by the elastic deformation of the coupling elements (2, 3). The outer coupling element (3) has at least one peripheral seal (35?, 35?) on the peripheral surface (32) on each longitudinal end.
