The function of the coupling is to connect the two shafts (active shaft and driven shaft) in different mechanisms to rotate together and transmit the torque. Some couplings also have functions of buffering, damping and improving the dynamic performance of the shafting system. .
The coupling consists of two halves, which are respectively connected with the driving shaft and the driven shaft. Most of the general power machines are connected with the working machine by means of a coupling. They are the most commonly used connecting parts of mechanical products shaft drive.
Common couplings are diaphragm couplings, tooth couplings, plum couplings, slider couplings, drum gear couplings, universal couplings, safety couplings, elastic couplings And serpentine spring couplings.
