Thrust bearing for flexible coupling - has V=shaped body with two radial vanes supported on driver of coupling secondary part

摘要

The flexible coupling has three or mare arms on a primary part, and the same number of counter bearings on a secondary part, the bearings being between the arms. Each counter bearing has a pair or arms converging radially inwards and enclosing a hollow space. The counter bearing (22) is V-shaped with two radial vanes (32) extending outwards. It is also supported on a driver (42) of the secondary part. This driver (42) is inserted axially in the bearing's hollow space (34). The vanes of adjacent bearings (22) are joined together.
