couplings can either be rigid or flexible. Rigid couplings are for well-constrained systems where the two shafts are not likely to get out of perfect axial alignment. Rigid couplings include ...

Flexible couplings couple or connect rotating members such as motors and drive shafts while allowing misalignment in either angular or parallel offset orientation. Sliding blocks are slotted or jawed ...

To provide safe, quiet operation, gas engine adapters must enclose the shafts. Often, they use flexible couplings and do not require coupling guards, risers, or shims. Pump motor adapters for gas ...
