An improved Bartlett type flexible coupling includes cylindrical laminated elastomeric bearing means between opposing cylindrical bearing surfaces and substantially flat laminated elastomeric bearing means between opposing flat bearing surfaces. One disclosed embodiment is an improved high angle fixed joint coupling comprising additional spherical sections connected to both of the driving and driven members and to each other so as to fix the axial position of each driving and driven member while allowing the members to rotate about axes which extend at an angle between 0 DEG and 90 DEG . The cylindrical and flat laminated elastomeric bearing means comprise alternating layers of an elastomeric resilient material and a nonextensible material to provide a more reliable coupling with improved performance. |
