A coupling (2) is disclosed. The coupling (2) comprises an outer member (4), an inner member (8), an intermediate member (6) and a plurality of buffer elements (18, 20). The outer member (4) comprises a plurality of radially inward projections (10), the inner member (6) comprises a plurality of radially outward projections (16) and the intermediate member (6) comprises a plurality of radially inward projections (14) and a plurality of radially outward projections (12). The plurality of buffer elements (18, 20) are disposed between the projections (10, 12, 14, 16). The plurality of radially inward projections (10) of the outer member (4) and the plurality of radially outward projections (12) of the intermediate member (6) are radially overlapped, and the plurality of radially outward projections (16) of the inner member (6) and the plurality of radially inner projections (14) of the intermediate member (6) are radially overlapped.

A power transmitting device includes a first rotor and a second rotor rotatably disposed coaxially with a rotational central axis and in facing relation to each other. A first pressing protrusion projecting from the first rotor and a second pressing protrusion projecting from the second rotor are disposed in relative positions on superposed rotation trajectories. A soft rubber member elastically deformable to a large extent and has a small modulus of elasticity and a hard rubber member elastically deformable to a small extent and has a large modulus of elasticity are interposed between the first and second pressing protrusions. While no relative torque load is being applied to the first and second rotors, the soft rubber member is held in contact with both the first and second pressing protrusions, and the hard rubber member is interposed between the first pressing protrusion and the second pressing protrusion with gaps therebetween.

An electronic device includes a housing defining an aperture. An input device extends through the aperture and has a user input surface external to the housing. An inertial actuator is mechanically and fixedly coupled to the input device and positioned within the housing. A mechanical wave dampener provides mechanical wave dampening between the input device and the housing. The electronic device enables haptic feedback to be provided locally to the input device. In some cases, the mechanical wave dampener may dampen shaking of the input device with respect to the housing by at least an order of magnitude.

The buffer stopper has a base and an elastic body. The base has a columnar shape having a through hole in a center thereof and having recesses at both ends (virtual surfaces including an end surface of a straight part) thereof, and is formed of a material such as a metal or resin, which is harder than a rubber-like elastic material used as a material for the elastic body. The elastic body is an integrally-molded product made of a rubber-like elastic material. The elastic body includes a pair of end elastic bodies fitted into the recesses of the base and protruding from both ends of the base and connects the pair of end elastic bodies by a central elastic body fitted into the through hole.

Proposed is a combined structure, and the combined structure includes a coupling target object having a coupling space that comprises a first space and a second space communicating with each other, a damper structure accommodated in the first space and including a flexible portion having a hollow therein and a hard portion coupled to the flexible portion and having one surface exposed to an outside, and a coupling unit accommodated in the second space, a portion of which is in contact with one surface of the hard portion. The hollow is closed from the outside in the damper structure. In response to rotation of the coupling unit in the second space, another portion different from the portion of the coupling unit comes into contact with the hard portion.
