ABSTRACT:
A rotary assembly for rotating a vessel such as a rotary kiln with a minimum amount of heat transfer to the driving element. A pluraltiy of coupling assemblies are provided which include a first bracket attached to the vessel. Pivotally connected to the bracket is a link member having an opposite pivot point on the driving element. With the coupling arrangement, heat from the inner rotating element which causes different rates of thermal expansion with respect to the girth gear does not produce high stresses on either element.
