  • Patent number: 9856964
    Abstract: The invention relates to a gear (1) comprising a first, radially inner ring element (2), a second, radially outer ring element (3) and a connecting element (4), wherein the second, radially outer ring element (2) comprises a toothing (10), wherein the connecting element (3) is arranged in radial direction between the first, radially inner ring element (2) and the second, radially outer ring element (3) and is connected to the first, radially inner ring element (2) and the second, radially outer ring element (3), and wherein the connecting element (4) is made at least partly from a rubber-elastic material. In this case edges (11, 12) of the first, radially inner ring element (2) in the connecting area between the first, radially inner ring element (2) and the connecting element (4) and edges (16, 17) in the connecting area between the second, radially outer ring element (3) and the connecting element (4) are provided with a rounding (21 to 24).
