“…On a coupling-test stand [12], the general appearance of which is shown in Figure 2, measurements were carried out to experimentally determine the characteristic ππ = ππ(ππ) of the couplings. A bearing box ( 2) is mounted on a plate (1), in which the shaft (3) rotates on rolling bearings, on one end of which, by means of a sleeve coupling ( 4), one half of the coupling A bearing box ( 2) is mounted on a plate (1), in which the shaft (3) rotates on rolling bearings, on one end of which, by means of a sleeve coupling ( 4), one half of the coupling under study ( 5) is mounted. On the other end of the shaft ( 3), a two-arm bridge ( 6) is fixed with the hangers (7) on which the weights ( 8) are placed.…”
