ABSTRACT:
An installation and retainer cap is disclosed for making a secure connection between an annular internally splined collar member and an externally splined shaft end. The cap includes a cap body, a threaded driving shaft extending from the inner side of the body engaging a threaded bore in the end of the shaft, and an outer flange engaging the annular collar member. When the cap is driven in to make the completed connection, the outside face of the flange is substantially flush with the outside face of the annular collar member. Recesses are provided in the end of the shaft and in the outside face of the annular collar member to accommodate the body and the flange, respectively. A washer cooperating with the outer flange allows relative turning movement during the driving of the collar into position. An indicator pin provides an indication when the annular collar is fully installed on the shaft. An alternative embodiment utilizing a separate cap and driving bolt is also disclosed.
