mechanical coupling

mechanical coupling used to connect two shafts for transmitting power or motion from one to the other. Typically, this type of coupling is employed in mechanical systems to reduce vibrations or compensate for slight misalignment between the shafts. Simplified description for SolidWorks: Main parts: Two shafts connected by a central coupling. Bolts/screws: Present to secure the connected parts together. Cylindrical shape: Features suggest it is some type of flexible or rigid coupling.
