Abstract
An elastic device for coupling between an aircraft landing gear wheel and a coaxial motorization member for motorization of the wheel. The elastic device comprises a plurality of arms to be rotationally coupled to the motorization member adjacent a first radially inner end and which are to be linked to the wheel adjacent their radially outer opposite end, the arms being substantially rigid in a plane perpendicular to the rotational axis of the wheel and flexible in directions substantially transverse to the plane.
