2. Constant-velocity joint - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant-velocity_joint

   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.

3. Sleeve valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleeve_valve

   Sleeve valve closeup from a Bristol Centaurus Mark 175. Bristol Perseus. The sleeve valve is a type of valve mechanism for piston engines, distinct from the usual poppet valve. Sleeve valve engines saw use in a number of pre–World War II luxury cars and in the United States in the Willys-Knight car and light truck. They subsequently fell from ...

4. 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 ...

5. Universal joint - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_joint

   A universal joint (also called a universal coupling or U-joint) is a joint or coupling connecting rigid shafts whose axes are inclined to each other. It is commonly used in shafts that transmit rotary motion. It consists of a pair of hinges located close together, oriented at

6. Magnetic coupling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_coupling

   They are also known as magnetic drive couplings, magnetic shaft couplings, or magnetic disc couplings. Magnetic coupling. Magnetic couplings allow a physical separation between input and output shafts, precluding the use of shaft seals, which eventually wear out and fail from the sliding of two surfaces against each another.

7. Balance shaft - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balance_shaft

   The Lanchester design of balance shaft systems was refined with the Mitsubishi Astron 80, an inline-four car engine introduced in 1975. This engine was the first to locate one balance shaft higher than the other, to counteract the second order rolling couple (i.e. about the crankshaft axis) due to the torque exerted by the inertia caused by ...

9. Drive shaft - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drive_shaft

   Some vehicles (generally sports cars, such as the Chevrolet Corvette C5/C6/C7, Alfa Romeo Alfetta and Porsche 924/944/928), seeking improved weight balance between front and rear, use a rear-mounted transaxle. In some non-Porsche models, this places the clutch and transmission at the rear of the car and the drive shaft between them and the ...
