  2. Coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coupling

    A grid coupling is composed of two shaft hubs, a metallic grid spring, and a split cover kit. Torque is transmitted between the two coupling shaft hubs through the metallic grid spring element. Like metallic gear and disc couplings, grid couplings have a high torque density. A benefit of grid couplings, over either gear or disc couplings, is ...

  3. 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 .

  4. Jaw coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaw_coupling

    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.

  6. Disc coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disc_coupling

    A disc coupling is a high performance motion control coupling designed to be the torque transmitting element (by connecting two shafts together) while accommodating for shaft misalignment. It is designed to be flexible, while remaining torsionally strong under high torque loads. Typically, disc couplings can handle speeds up to 10,000 r/min.

  7. Rotary union - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_union

    The shaft is the component that carries the medium through the rotary union into the drum or roll. In many cases the shaft will turn with the drum or roll. In some cases, like in larger flanged rotary unions, the shaft may be stationary while the housing rotates. The bearings and seal are typically assembled around the shaft.

  8. Rag joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rag_joint

    An older vehicle with loose steering or "play in the steering wheel" is often found to have a worn rag joint. One can reach inside the cab and wiggle the steering wheel while watching the rag joint move without the input shaft moving. This condition may cause the vehicle to fail the vehicle inspection, indicating that the worn part needs ...

  9. Railway coupling - Wikipedia
