ABSTRACT:
A method of coupling two shafts for rotation is proposed. The end of at least one shaft being constructed to include a hollow outwardly flared end portion, which includes an inner and an outer surface, at least one of these surfaces including alignment and torque transmitting structure. A two-piece coupling is constructed with at least one piece including alignment and torque transmitting structure compatible with the alignment and torque transmitting structure of the flared end portion. The coupling is engaged with the flared end portions and adjusted to generate a pressure at the engaged surfaces and produce engagement of the compatible alignment and torque transmitting structures substantially preventing relative movement between the engaged surfaces thereby aligning the coupling and the shaft or shafts and permitting torque transmission.
