Patent attributes
In a frictional rotary connector having a tapered ring arrangement (3) to be placed onto a shaft and having at least one tapered ring section (e.g. 4a) with an inner surface for abutting the shaft, and with an oblique outer surface (e.g. 5a), at least one tensioning ring element (e.g. 6a) with an oblique inner surface, which element slides between a starting position and a clamping position on the oblique outer surface (e.g. 5a) of the tapered ring section (e.g. 4a), and a tensioning ring for moving the tensioning ring element (e.g. 6a) in order to lock the tensioning ring element (e.g. 6a) in the clamping position at least one retaining element (8) is provided which is arranged to be guided in a radial direction from a free position to a clamping position, wherein the retaining element (8) axially locks the tensioning ring element (e.g. 6a) in the clamping position.
