A device for transmitting a movement between a first member and a second member, namely from a driving member to a driven member, of the type having a cylindrical journal with a circular base mounted so as to rotate in a recess of the driven member or of the driving member. At least one of the ends of this journal is hollowed out by a groove capable of forming, on either side thereof, two shoes that are symmetrical with respect to an axial and diametral plane of the journal and capable of engaging, by a flattened surface, with the driving member or the driven member, the cross-section of each shoe being delimited by an arc of a circle matching the external surface of the journal, ending in a line segment that is part of the flattened surface.
