2. Thrust bearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrust_bearing

   A thrust bearing is a particular type of rotary bearing. Like other bearings they permanently rotate between parts, but they are designed to support a predominantly axial load. [1] Thrust bearings come in several varieties. Thrust ball bearings, composed of bearing balls supported in a ring, can be used in low-thrust applications where there is ...

3. Coupling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coupling

   A sleeve coupling consists of a pipe whose bore is finished to the required tolerance based on the shaft size. Based on the usage of the coupling a keyway is made in the bore in order to transmit the torque by means of the key. Two threaded holes are provided in order to lock the coupling in position. Sleeve couplings are also known as box ...

4. Main bearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_bearing

   The lower half of the main bearings are typically held in place by 'bearing caps' which are secured to the engine block using bolts. The basic arrangement is for each bearing cap to have two bolts, but some engines may have four or six bolts per bearing cap (often referred to as "four-bolt mains" or "six-bolt mains" engines).

5. Shaft collar - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaft_collar

   Clamp-style shaft collars are designed to solve the problems associated with the set-screw collar. They come in one- and two-piece designs. Instead of protruding into the shaft, the screws act to compress the collar and lock it into place. The connection between the shaft and the collar is made with friction.

6. Ball differential - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball_differential

   A thrust bearing (or thrust race), on the opposite side of the gear, is used to stop the differential from loosening the retaining screw holding the output cups, used to attach the differential to the axle, onto the differential. As the screw is tightened it pushes the Belleville and thrust washers onto the gear/pulley.

7. Axle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axle

   This setup allows the axle shaft to be the means of propulsion, and also support the weight of the vehicle. The main difference between the full- and semi-floating axle setups is the number of bearings. The semi-floating axle features only one bearing, while the full-floating assembly has bearings on both the inside and outside of the wheel hub.
