Abstract
An adapter for torque transmission between a first rotatable component and a second rotatable component is provided. The adapter includes a first torque transmission feature configured to transmit torque between the adapter and the first rotatable component, and a second torque transmission feature configured to transmit torque between the adapter and the second rotatable component, the second torque transmission feature being different than the first torque transmission feature.
Claims20
An adapter for torque transmission between a first rotatable component and a second rotatable component, the adapter comprising:
- a first torque transmission feature configured to transmit torque between the adapter and the first rotatable component;
- and
- a second torque transmission feature configured to transmit torque between the adapter and the second rotatable component, the second torque transmission feature being different than the first torque transmission feature.
An assembly comprising:
- a first rotatable component;
- a second rotatable component operably coupled to the first rotatable component;
- and
- an adapter disposed between the first rotatable component and the second rotatable component to transmit torque therebetween, the adapter having a first torque transmission feature located at a first end of the adapter that is proximate the first rotatable component, and a second torque transmission feature located at a second end of the adapter that is proximate the second rotatable component, wherein the first torque transmission feature is different than the second torque transmission feature.
A method comprising:
- disposing an adapter between a first rotatable component and a second rotatable component for transmitting torque between the first rotatable component and the second rotatable component, the adapter including a first torque transmission feature located at a first end of the adapter that is proximate the first rotatable component, and a second torque transmission feature located at a second end of the adapter that is proximate the second rotatable component, wherein the first torque transmission feature is different than the second torque transmission feature.
