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.
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.
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.
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.
Victaulic specializes in the development of couplings, valves, and fitting technologies for a variety of industries. Its main products are: Grooved couplings used to join mechanical pipes together. [3] The company produces a variety of these grooved couplings along with other technologies since it was founded. [4]
For a key to function, the shaft and rotating machine element must have a keyway and a keyseat, which is a slot and pocket in which the key fits. The whole system is called a keyed joint. [1] [2] A keyed joint may allow relative axial movement between the parts. Commonly keyed components include gears, pulleys, couplings, and washers.
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 ...
