Abstract:
A soil compacting device has an upper mass having a drive and a lower mass having an imbalance exciter. On the lower mass, there is provided a bearer device connected fixedly thereto, which bearer device bears a transmission device having an input shaft and an output shaft. The drive has a drive shaft that is coupled to the input shaft. The imbalance exciter has an exciter shaft that is coupled to the output shaft. A compensating coupling is provided between the drive shaft of the drive and the input shaft of the transmission device. The compensating coupling is designed to compensate for an axial offset, a radial offset, and an angular offset between the drive shaft and the input shaft.

Claim (Index 1):
A soil compacting device comprising:\n an upper mass having a drive; a lower mass connected to the upper mass so as to be movable relative thereto, and having a soil contact plate for soil compaction; an imbalance exciter provided on the lower mass and capable of being driven by the drive; a bearer device situated on one of the upper mass and the lower mass and connected fixedly thereto; the bearer device bearing a transmission device having an input shaft and an output shaft that are coupled together by a torque-transmitting device for transmitting a torque from the input shaft to the output shaft; the bearer device bearing the input shaft and the output shaft so that they are capable of rotation, the drive having a drive shaft that is coupled to the input shaft; the imbalance exciter having an exciter shaft that is coupled to the output shaft; a compensating coupling being provided between the drive shaft of the drive and the input shaft of the transmission device or between the output shaft of the transmission device and the exciter shaft of the imbalance exciter; and the compensating coupling being configured to compensate an axial offset, a radial offset, and an angular offset between one of 1) the drive shaft and the input shaft and 2) between the output shaft and the exciter shaft.
