Abstract

Claims (26)

1. An arrangement for connecting two drive sides of a drive train of a rail vehicle, the arrangement comprising:

a first drive side having ends and a disk-shaped first coupling body at one of said ends of said first drive side;

a second drive side having ends and a disk-shaped second coupling body at one of said ends of said second drive side;

a disk-shaped intermediate body disposed between said first coupling body and said second coupling body;

said intermediate body coupled to both said first coupling body and said second coupling body for transmitting a rotational movement of one of said first or second drive sides to another of said first or second drive sides through said first and second coupling bodies;

said first coupling body annularly surrounding said second coupling body;

said intermediate body annularly surrounding said second coupling body;

said first, second and intermediate bodies having a common axis of symmetry and said second coupling body being nested in said first coupling body and being nested in said intermediate body in a space-saving manner.

2. The arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said first coupling body annularly surrounds said intermediate body.

3. The arrangement according to claim 1 , which further comprises intermeshed studs and recesses coupling said first and second coupling bodies and said intermediate body to one another.

4. The arrangement according to claim 3 , wherein:

said intermeshed studs include entraining studs on a side of said first coupling body facing said intermediate body;

said intermeshed studs include entraining studs on a side of said second coupling body facing said intermediate body;

said recesses include recesses on a side of said intermediate body facing said first coupling body for receiving said entraining studs of said first coupling body;

said recesses include recesses on a side of said intermediate body facing said second coupling body for receiving said entraining studs of said second coupling body; and

respective entraining studs and recesses are coupled to one another for transmitting a rotational movement of one of said first or second drive sides to the other of said first or second drive sides through said coupled entraining studs and said recesses.

5. The arrangement according to claim 4 , which further comprises flexible elements coupling said first and second coupling bodies and said intermediate body to one another.

6. The arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said intermediate body is disposed parallel to said first coupling body.

7. The arrangement according to claim 6 , which further comprises:

flexible elements connecting said first coupling body to said intermediate body; and

flexible elements connecting said intermediate body to said second coupling body.

8. The arrangement according to claim 7 , wherein said flexible elements are strip-shaped.

9. The arrangement according to claim 7 , wherein:

said first coupling body and said intermediate body have annularly encircling recesses for receiving said flexible elements connecting said first coupling body to said intermediate body;

said second coupling body and said intermediate body have annularly encircling recesses for receiving said flexible elements connecting said second coupling body to said intermediate body; and

said flexible elements couple or connect said first and second coupling bodies and said intermediate body for transmitting a rotational movement of one of said first or second drive sides to the other of said first or second drive sides through said coupled or connected first coupling body, second coupling body and intermediate body.
