Abstract

Illustrated and described is, among other things, an elastic claw coupling (10) for transmitting torques from a drive unit (11) to a driven unit (12) with a first coupling section (14) assigned to the drive, and a second coupling section (15) assigned to the drive that both rotate about a common rotational axis (13), wherein claws (18, 19) are arranged on both coupling sections that extend radially outward from the relevant coupling sections and axially to achieve axial overlapping with the respective other coupling section, wherein two claws arranged angularly adjacent about the rotational axis form between them an accommodation space (32a, 32b, 32c, 32d, 32e) for an elastic element. The special feature consists in the fact that in the circumferential direction a plurality of elastic elements (25a, 25b, 25c) of the first type and a plurality of elastic elements (26a, 26b, 26c) of a second type are provided, wherein the elastic elements of the second type differ from the elastic elements of the first type in terms of their geometry and/or in terms of their material properties.
