  • Patent number: 10465688
    Abstract: A coupling has an opening and a protrusion extending downward from the opening. The protrusion has threads that are preferably positioned outside of the opening. A rotor shaft that connects to the coupling has an internal bore with threads that receives and retains the protrusion, such as by a threaded connection between the two, so the protrusion applies driving force to the shaft.

  • Patent number: 4121325
    Abstract: The invention is concerned with an anchor and coupler unit for use with stressing cables in reinforced concrete structures. The unit comprises a base plate having an aperture therethrough and supporting a cable anchor the body of which includes an external surface curved convexly towards the socket base and spaced apart therefrom and adapted to receive a looped end of a reinforcing cable wherein the body is preferably separate from the base plate and the latter in the form of a socket which has a peripheral flange extending towards the cable anchor body and a conical housing around the aperture extending on the opposite side of the plate to the flange. Also the anchor preferably has a pair of oppositely extending semi-cylindrical projections each providing a curved surface spaced from the base plate.

  • Patent number: 4043146
    Abstract: The present shaft coupling is intended for releasably linking two or more vices to each other in a torque transmitting manner. The devices may, for example, be turbines each of which has a shaft. Two bearing mounts are provided for one of the shafts, but only one bearing mount is provided for the other shaft at its end remote from the coupling. The coupling between the two shafts is formed by inserting a non-circular end portion of one shaft in a corresponding non-circular aperture in the end of the other shaft. An axially extending bolt firmly clamps the two shafts together in the axial direction. One or both of the shafts may be hollow. The non-circular profiles of the shafts may be splined, or have a polygonal profile, and the polygonal profile may be tapered. A polygonal profile as used herein may be one with only three sides.
