1. A lubricated gear coupling for transmitting torque, comprising:
a first hub operatively arranged to be connectable to an input shaft, said first hub comprising at least one gear tooth; a second hub operatively arranged to be connectable to an output shaft, said second hub comprising at least one gear tooth; a sleeve gear comprising at least one gear tooth, wherein said first hub and said second hub are arranged within said sleeve gear, said gear tooth of said first hub and said second hub corresponding with said gear tooth of said sleeve gear, wherein torque is transmitted from said input shaft to said output shaft with axial, radial, and angular movement occurring between said first hub and said second hub; a first bump stop arranged within said sleeve gear and operatively arranged to interact with said gear tooth of said first hub, said first bump stop arranged to prevent longitudinal sliding of said first hub in a predetermined amount in a first direction; a second bump stop arranged within said sleeve gear and operatively arranged to interact with said gear tooth of said first hub, said second bump stop arranged to prevent longitudinal sliding of said first hub in a predetermined amount in a second direction, said second direction opposite said first direction; a third bump stop arranged within said sleeve gear and operatively arranged to interact with said gear tooth of said second hub, said third bump stop arranged to prevent longitudinal sliding of said second hub in a predetermined amount in said first direction; a fourth bump stop arranged within said sleeve gear and operatively arranged to interact with said gear tooth of said second hub, said fourth bump stop arranged to prevent longitudinal sliding of said second hub in a predetermined amount in said second direction; and, a draining means arranged on said sleeve gear, wherein said lubricant can flow through. |
