ABSTRACT:
A quick connect apparatus (10) for attaching a stub shaft (14) to a main rotor shaft (16) of a generator. A rotatable retaining device (12) is secured to the end of the main rotor shaft (16) and includes channels (22) which are engaged by pins (30) projecting radially inward from an inner diameter portion of the stub shaft (14). A polgon drive portion (34) extends from the stub shaft (14) and engages a similar shaped polygon opening (18) formed in the end of the main rotor shaft (16) when the stub shaft (14) is attached. A biasing spring (40) is provided between the back of the polygon opening (18) and a recess in the mating polygon drive portion (34) for biasing the stub shaft (14) axially away from the main shaft (16).
