ABSTRACT:
A gear-type shaft coupling for connecting shafts in an end-to-end relation, in which there are two hubs mounted on the ends of the shafts and sleeves disposed on the hubs and having internal gearing for meshing with external gearing on the hubs. A ring overlaps and connects the two sleeves to form a rigid assembly for transmitting torque between the gear teeth of one hub and the gear teeth of the other hub. Bolts or screws extending radially connect the ring and the sleeves and, in several embodiments of the invention, the ring is segmented to permit the ring to be easily assembled in the coupling as the coupling is installed on the drive and driven machinery.
