Abstract: A leaf spring made of a fiber composite material having integrated bearing holes and a method for producing is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of cutting prepreg strips of a predetermined length from a prepreg strand, removing cut-outs from the particular prepreg strip in the axial ends where a bearing hole should be formed, laying a plurality of prepreg strips one over the other in a prepreg stack in alternation so that the surfaces of the prepreg strips are flush to form a raw leaf spring forming a bearing hole by deforming an axial end of the prepreg stack in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal extension (L) and perpendicular to the transverse extension (B) of the prepreg stack, setting the raw sheet spring to form the finished leaf spring in a mold with a suitable setting pressure and a suitable setting temperature.

Abstract: The invention relates to an elastic coupling device for connecting two drive shafts to a coupling disk, which is arranged axially between a first drive shaft and a second drive shaft and is arranged against the first drive shaft and the second drive shaft in a rotationally fixed manner. The coupling disk acts as a mechanical compensator during torque transmission between the two drive shafts. The coupling disk is retained without penetration by means of a plurality of circumferentially distributed clamping pieces, which are or can be connected to the first drive shaft and to the second drive shaft in circumferential alternation. The coupling disk and the clamping pieces are contoured in an axis-of-rotation direction in such a way that the clamping pieces encompass the coupling disk in a form-closed manner, wherein the form closure is effective in a rotational direction.
