<p>A mechanical coupling comprises an input member (12,50), an output member (14,52) a chamber (16) associated therewith, within the chamber (16) a charge (35,55) of cured silicone composition in crumb form and means (28,58) for compressing the charge (35,55) to an extent sufficient to permit the compressed silicone to convey rotational motion from the input member (12,50) to the output member (14,52). A clutch (Fig.1) and a variable torque rate torsion bar (Fig.2) are described. <IMAGE></p> |
