ABSTRACT:
A coupling stud assembly for coupling together a pair of flanges. A stud ing a tapered surface is inserted into respective overlapping through-holes provided in the flanges so that a space is defined between the stud and inner walls of the holes. A wedge is fitted into the space and is pressed by a wedge spacer so as to tighten contact between the stud and the inner walls of the through-holes. Nuts are provided on threaded ends of the stud to securely couple the flanges together. This arrangement provides a tight, vibration-free coupling between the flanges.
