Zusammenfassung: | 1,093,578. Flexible shafts. FRATELLI BORLETTI S.p.A. Sept. 7, 1965 [Sept. 12, 1964], No. 38226/65. Heading F2U. In a shaft coupling of the kind wherein a connector 11 has a recess receiving the square section end 10 of a flexible shaft 1 of wires wound into a helix which tightens during rotation and has a square section projection 13 engaging complementary surfaces 14 within a hollow driving shaft 15 of an instrument (e.g. a revolution counter or speedometer), lubricating grease which is urged by the rotating shaft 1 towards the instrument is prevented from reaching the latter by forming a helical groove 17 of opposite hand to that of the helix in the outer surface of the connector 11. The connector 11 may be made of plastics material (e.g. nylon). A non-rotating casing 2 which surrounds the shaft 1 is connected to a sleeve 5 clamped by nuts 7 to the casing of the instrument. |
