  • Patent number: 4578608
    Abstract: A coupling for electric motors, with each motor comprising a rotor (62, 63) and a stator (60, 61) mounted in a tubular shell (4, 5). The coupling includes the ends (8, 8a) of the tubular shells to be assembled, shaped for end-to-end inter-fitting in a manner which determines a relative angular position of the shells, the shape being identical on both shells; the coupling further including an internal coupling module (12) constituting a subassembly which is independent of the motors per se. The module comprises a coupling sleeve (15) for coupling the rotor shafts (16, 17), electrical connection means (29) for interconnecting the stators (60, 61), and support means acting both as radial bearings (19, 20) and as axial stops (21, 22) for the motors.
