Abstract
In a coupling operating on the principle of the Oldham coupling, parallel drives are disposed orthogonally relative to one another and include pairs of guide rods. In order to reduce the axial measurements of such a coupling, the guide rods are disposed in recesses located in the intermediate member. This permits the guide rods to be located, according to one embodiment of the invention, in a single plane.
