  • Patent number: 10648513
    Abstract: A thread-reinforced joint device for a coupling device of a vehicle drive, particularly of a low-platform vehicle, includes a plurality of coupling elements, at least one thread packet coupling two adjacent coupling elements so that a force is transmittable, a support device arranged on at least one of the coupling elements for axially guiding the at least one thread packet and at least one elastic body, into which, the at least one thread packet and the coupling elements are at least partially embedded. The coupling elements are designed and/or can be positioned so that the thread-reinforced joint device is adaptable to different mounting interfaces of a respective coupling device.

  • Publication number: 20110287846
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device (10) for transmitting torques while damping vibrations, particularly in a steering spindle arrangement, said device comprising a spindle connection part (12) for coupling to an end segment of a steering spindle, a damping bushing arrangement (16) that can be coupled to the spindle connection part (12), and a fork part (18) that can be coupled to the bushing arrangement (16) for transmitting torque. In this device, provision is made for the bushing arrangement (16) to be disposed between the spindle connection part (12) and the fork part (18), the bushing arrangement (16) having a first damping layer (60) made of elastomeric material for damping bending loads, and said bushing arrangement (16) having a second damping layer (62) made of elastomeric material for damping torsional loads.
