ASPECTS REGARDING SHAFT COUPLING USING ELASTIC ELEMENTS
Abstract
The paper presents several aspects concerning the shaft coupling using elastic elements, more precisely, with corrugated bellows. The degree of freedom necessary for an accurate coupling is found. The advantages and the inconveniences of the presented coupling are analyzed. As main benefits, the simplicity and relatively reduced costs are highlighted. The mentioned major disadvantages are the infinite degree of freedom of the coupling elements and the occurrence of a vibration phenomenon that affects the quality of the motion transmission.
