ABSTRACT:
A coupler interconnecting a wheel speed transducer with a rotating wheel of an aircraft. A cylindrical housing has a pair of orthogonal passages extending therethrough. One of such passages communicates with a slot within one end of the housing, the slot being adapted to slidingly receive a blade from a drive cap of the wheel. The other of the passages slidingly receives a member having a hub extending therefrom for engagement with the rotatable shaft of the wheel speed transducer. Various types of possible misalignment are accommodated and corrected by the capability of the blade to slide within the slot and of the member to slide within its passage. The coupler substantially eliminates backlash and accommodates high temperature operation.
