- Geislinger_coupling abstract "The Geislinger coupling is an all-metal coupling for rotating shafts. It is elastic in torsion, allowing it to absorb torsional vibration.Unlike some other coupling types, it is not intended to compensate for high radial mis-alignment between shafts, but it can compensate axial misalignments better than elastomer couplings. The coupling may have a small ability to compensate for varying alignment, but if this is needed it is generally done through using an additional coupling in tandem. The coupling also runs at the same speed for input and output shafts, unlike a torque converter.The design was invented by Dr. Ing. Leonhard Geislinger in 1958. Its first use was for large diesel engines in locomotives, but it is also widely used in ships.Geislinger couplings are constructed inside robust enclosed steel housings. An outer housing and a central hub or "inner star" form the input and output drive members. Internally, the drive is transmitted through a number of radial leaf springs. The steel leaf springs are available in several configurations and the stiffness increases linear with displacement. These leaf springs are damped by a damping ring, the tips of the longest leaves engaging in splines in the inner star.Hydraulic damping is provided, as the leaf springs are immersed in oil. Any movement of the spring plates must squeeze oil through the narrow gaps around them between the plates and the casing. As the springs have a high surface area, yet there is only a small gap between them and their housing, the damping factor can be high. Damping can be adjusted completely independent from the coupling's torsional stiffness. The oil used for damping is usually supplied by the engine lubrication system, through a drilling in the crankshaft. If this is unavailable, an oil-filled coupling can be used. This oil filling also aids lubrication and encourages a long service life.".
