GEAR COUPLING

Te sleeve is an internal gear and the hub is an external gear which has crowned teeth. Te two toothed components compose a special gear pair, wherein both numbers of teeth are the same. Te gear coupling is able to compensate the misalignment of the coupled shafts by the tooth crowning and backlash. Using a single hub and sleeve, the effect of angular misalignment may be eliminated. The teeth of this gear coupling was modeled in kisssoft according to the drawings, therefore the tooth model are very exact.
