Content
As used herein, “coupling” or "coupler" refers to a mechanical device, component, or structure, that is organized, configured, designed, arranged, or engineered to connect the ends of adjacent parts or objects. In certain embodiments, a coupling can be used to connect two shafts together at their ends for the purpose of transmitting power. In other embodiments, a coupling can be used to join two pieces of rotating equipment while permitting some degree of misalignment or end movement or both. Couplings do not normally allow disconnection of the two parts, such as shafts during operation. (Search "coupling" on Wikipedia.com July 26, 2021. CC-BY-SA 3.0 Modified. Accessed July 27, 2021.)
