2. Flexible shaft - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexible_shaft

   Flexible shaft tool. A flexible shaft, often referred to as a flex shaft, is a device for transmitting rotary motion between two objects which are not fixed relative to one another. It consists of a rotating wire rope or coil which is flexible but has some torsional stiffness. It may or may not have a covering, which also bends but does not rotate.

3. Giubo - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giubo

   A driveshaft coupling. Note the split damage beginning to appear, likely due to the large axial displacement. A giubo. A giubo (/ ˈ dʒ uː b oʊ / JOO-boh; etymology: giunto Boschi, "Boschi joint"), also known as a 'flexdisc', and sometimes misspelled as guibo, is a flexible coupling used to transmit rotational torque between the drive shaft and the companion flange on mechanical devices ...

4. Flexplate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexplate

   The name refers to the ability of the disk to flex along its main axis to account for gear changes and/or small misalignments as rotational speeds change. [2] Flexplates are generally much thinner and lighter than flywheels not only because of the required flexibility, but also due to the smoother coupling action of the torque converter [3] and the elimination of the clutch surface.

5. Jaw coupling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaw_coupling

   Like other flexible couplings, jaw couplings are limited in the shaft misalignment that they can accommodate. Too much axial motion will cause the couplings to come apart, while too much angular or parallel misalignment will result in bearing loads that may lead to premature system wear or failure.

6. 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 ...

7. What is Flex Fuel? The pros and cons of flexible fuel vehicles

   Specially equipped vehicles designated as Flex Fuel capable can run on E85, a mix that's as high as 85% ethanol and just 15% gasoline. But, nearly all cars are already using a gasoline-ethanol mix.
