Abstract

A shaft with integrated angle compensating elements of fibre-reinforced material includes an elastically-deformable coupling flange which is curved backwards to form an annular portion which connects the flange to the inner wall of a surrounding disk-shaped connection element. The shaft comprises fibres cross-wound at an angle to the axis of the shaft which extend up to the free edge of the flange.
