A one-to-one torque coupling includes a centre member, left and right side members, and a plurality of torque transfer elements. The centre member is disposed between the side members, has a main axis of rotation and includes a plurality of holes disposed about the main axis at a radius. The side members each have a common secondary axis of rotation that is parallel to and offset from the main axis. Each side member also includes a plurality of holes that are congruent with the holes in the centre member and are disposed about the secondary axis at the radius. The torque transfer elements extend through the holes of the centre member into the holes of the side members, and rotate about a third axis that is parallel to and disposed midway between the main axis and the secondary axis. The torque transfer elements transfer torque between the centre member and the side members through rolling contact between the torque transfer elements and the holes of the centre and side members.

A coupling includes a centre member, left and right side members, and a plurality of torque transfer elements. The centre member has a main axis of rotation, and the side members each have a common offset axis of rotation offset from the main axis. The torque transfer elements transfer torque between the centre member and the side members. Each torque transfer element includes a pin that extends through a hole in the centre member into a respective cut-out in the side members, an inner set of roller bearings disposed within the respective hole of the centre member in engagement with an outer surface of the pin, an outer set of roller bearings in engagement with a surface of the respective hole of the centre member, and a crescent element disposed within the respective hole of the centre member in engagement with the inner and outer sets of roller bearings.

A coupling includes left and right side members, and a centre member that is disposed between the side members. The centre member has a main axis of rotation, and includes holes disposed about the main axis at a radius. The side members each have a common offset axis of rotation parallel to and offset from the main axis. Each side member includes holes congruent with the holes in the centre member and disposed about the offset axis at the radius. Torque transfer elements extend through the holes of the centre member and into the holes of the side members. The torque transfer elements rotate about a third axis parallel to and disposed midway between the main axis and the offset axis, and transfer torque between the centre member and the side members through rolling contact between the torque transfer elements and the holes of the centre and side members.
