Abstract

A coupling ring for couplings having at least two coupling parts. The object of the invention is to provide a coupling ring for couplings which have at least two coupling parts, which can be applied to the two coupling parts of the coupling in a simpler and easier manner during installation, in particular in the event of a repair for defects in the coupling ring designed as a wedge packet ring and in the coupling region of the wedge packet ring. The aim is achieved by a coupling ring as a wedge packet ring comprising at least two coupling parts, wherein the wedge packet ring is divided into at least two one-piece ring segments from an alternate arrangement of the securing elements and the spring elements, wherein the one-piece ring segments are fitted with apportioned closure securing elements which are located at the respective end regions on a ring segment and are provided to form a closure, wherein the apportioned closure securing elements connecting the ring elements each have wedge parts which are each adapted to each other and have bores that are radially directed towards the ring axis, wherein the correspondingly adapted wedge parts can each be combined together to form a ra…
