    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Oldham_(engineer)

    Oldham left a family of 17 children. His eldest son, Thomas Oldham (1801–1851), succeeded to his father's place at the bank. He was elected an associate of the Institution of Civil Engineers on 2 March 1841, and in 1842 he read a paper "On the Introduction of Letterpress Printing for numbering and dating the Notes of the Bank of England" (Proceedings, 1842, p. 166), and in the following year ...

  5. Coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coupling

    An improvised flexible coupling made of car tyre pieces connects the drive shafts of an engine and a water pump. This one is used to cancel out misalignment and dampen vibrations. Rotating coupling. A coupling is a device used to connect two shafts together at their ends for the purpose of transmitting power. The primary purpose of couplings is ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-bar_linkage

    Oldham's coupling; Planar four-bar linkages can be designed to guide a wide variety of movements, and are often the base mechanisms found in many machines. Because of this, the kinematics and dynamics of planar four-bar linkages are also important topics in mechanical engineering.

  7. Scroll compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scroll_compressor

    An eccentric shaft can provide the orbital motion but the scroll must be prevented from rotating, typically with an Oldham-type coupling, additional eccentric idler shafts, or a bellows joint (particularly for high-purity applications). Another method for producing the compression motion is co-rotating the scrolls, in synchronous motion, but ...

  9. Railway coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Railway_coupling

    A coupling or coupler is a mechanism, typically located at each end of a rail vehicle, that connects them together to form a train. The equipment that connects the couplers to the vehicles is the draft gear or draw gear, which must absorb the stresses of the coupling and the acceleration of the train.
