  3. Geislinger coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geislinger_coupling

    The Geislinger coupling is an all-metal coupling for rotating shafts. It is elastic in torsion, allowing it to absorb torsional vibration. [1] Unlike some other coupling types, it is not intended to compensate for high radial misalignment between shafts, but it can compensate for axial misalignments better than elastomer couplings.

  4. Rotary union - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_union

    This image shows the components needed to make a rotary union; a shaft, housing, bearings, seals and retaining clip. The independent shaft and housing allow for continuous rotation of either component. This is an example of a two passage rotary union with independent channels that allow both liquids and gases to transfer simultaneously. [1]

  5. Schmidt coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schmidt_coupling

    A Schmidt coupling is a type of coupling designed to accommodate large radial displacement between two shafts. Consisting of an arrangement of links and discs—three discs rotating in unison, interconnected in series by three or more links between each pair of discs—a Schmidt coupling can adapt to very wide variations in radial displacement while running under load.

  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. Hirth joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hirth_joint

    Hirth joint made from anodized aluminum to show the meshing of the teeth Hirth joint (disassembled) between the semi-axles of a Campagnolo Ultra-Torque crankset. Face spline joints consist of a ring of radial splines or teeth milled or ground into the end faces of two rotary components such as a drive shaft and the hub of a wheel.

  8. 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 90° to each other, connected by a cross shaft.

  9. Constant-velocity joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant-velocity_joint

    A Rzeppa-type (Birfield) 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.
