Types of Mechanical Couplings Explained by daya shanker shukla is a document available to read on EtoBox.
A coupling connects two shafts together to transmit power while accommodating misalignment. There are two main types of couplings: rigid couplings which do not allow for misalignment and flexible couplings which can accommodate some degree of misalignment between shafts. Flexible couplings include Oldham couplings, universal joints, and jaw couplings which use elastomer inserts to dampen vibrations while transmitting torque between shafts with some misalignment.
