Means for securing two elements against relative axial movement

摘要

Means to mount an element to be powered on a drive shaft are shown. The element to be powered fits against a shoulder on the shaft. A retainer ring is next slipped onto the shaft against the element, and a snap ring is put in place in a groove in the shaft. Three plugs in the retainer ring are screwed against the element to clamp the assembly longitudinally between the shoulder and the snap ring.
