Couplings With Convex Teeth

Description and Applications: Great attention is not normally paid to the problem of coupling together shafts. Very often the coupling element chosen is the simplest and, hence, the cheapest; it is deemed adequate for the job at hand, and no one thinks about impairment to the life and quality of the machines thus connected. Frequently the choice is based on the simplistic principle according to which the connecting element must have torsional elasticity and great flexibility. Toothed couplings are indeed flexible, but they lack torsional elasticity. Currently, there are many applications in which the torque to be transmitted, high rotational speeds, misalignment value and reduced maintenance costs call for the use of toothed couplings. In order to understand and appreciate the many advantages of the flexible tooth couplings we must first look at its most general uses.
