The Geislinger coupling is a torsional elastic, high-damping steel spring coupling with hydrodynamic damping. High reliability, long intervals between overhauls, and low life-cycle cost are its main advantages. The Geislinger coupling is an all-metal coupling for rotating shafts. It is elastic in torsion, allowing it to absorb torsional ...

A vacuum flange is a flange at the end of a tube used to connect vacuum chambers, tubing and vacuum pumps to each other. Vacuum flanges are used for scientific and industrial applications to allow various pieces of equipment to interact via physical connections and for vacuum maintenance, monitoring, and manipulation from outside a vacuum's chamber.
A Rzeppa-type CV joint. A constant-velocity joint (also called a CV joint and homokinetic joint) is a mechanical coupling which allows the shafts to rotate freely (without an appreciable increase in friction or backlash) and compensates for the angle between the two shafts, within a certain range, to maintain the same velocity.
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 ...
In 1820, the French engineer A. Duleau derived analytically that the torsion constant of a beam is identical to the second moment of area normal to the section J zz, which has an exact analytic equation, by assuming that a plane section before twisting remains planar after twisting, and a diameter remains a straight line.
Torsional vibration is the angular vibration of an object - commonly a shaft - along its axis of rotation. Torsional vibration is often a concern in power transmission systems using rotating shafts or couplings, where it can cause failures if not controlled. A second effect of torsional vibrations applies to passenger cars.
In mechanical engineering, a jaw coupling is a type of general purpose power transmission coupling that also can be used in motion control (servo) applications. It is designed to transmit torque (by connecting two shafts ) while damping system vibrations and accommodating misalignment, which protects other components from damage.
