The invention relates to an impeller receptacle, in particular for an impeller of a fan, comprising at least one rotationally symmetrical body. The rotationally symmetrical body has a first end face, a second end face and a lateral face, wherein at least one radial bore extends radially from the lateral face into the rotationally symmetrical body and an assembly recess extends from the first end face into the radial bore. A detent ball having a ball diameter and a spring are arranged in the at least one radial bore, wherein the detent ball can be pressed radially outwards by means of the spring. The radial bore has at least one first, inner radial bore diameter and a second, outer radial bore diameter, the second, outer radial bore diameter being smaller than the ball diameter.

A coupling is disclosed for connecting a propeller to a motor in an aircraft such as a rotary wing aircraft and the like. The coupling comprises a propeller hub having an inner propeller hub bore defining an axial keyway. A rotatable shaft has an internal shaft bore connected for rotation with the motor. A radial key is slidably located in a radial aperture extending through the rotatable shaft. An actuator is slidably mounted within the internal shaft bore of the rotatable shaft. The radial key is received with the axial keyway for securing the propeller hub to the rotatable shaft. A depression of the actuator retracting the radial key relative to an outer surface of the rotatable shaft for permitting the propeller hub bore to be introduced onto the rotatable shaft.

An inner wall surface of a pump housing has a slide surface, which is opposite from a joint member and along which an inner rotor is slidable. This slide surface includes an external tooth slide surface and a main body slide surface. External teeth of the inner rotor are slidable along the external tooth slide surface, and a main body of the inner rotor is slidable along the main body slide surface. A surface roughness of the main body slide surface is higher than a surface roughness of the external tooth slide surface.

A shaft-hub connection of a double gearwheel (2) on a transmission shaft (5), in which the double gearwheel (2) has a first gearwheel (3) and a second gearwheel (4), which are connected to one another in a rotationally fixed manner. The shaft-hub connection is in the form of a shrink fit (7) between a hub (8) of the first gearwheel (3) and the transmission shaft (5). A maximum of the torque to be transmitted can be transmitted by virtue of the shrink fit (7).

An interference apparatus is provided for a motor shaft transmission assembly. The interference apparatus may include split-ring shells and a retaining device. The interference apparatus may be mounted to an intermediate sleeve of the motor shaft transmission assembly. The interference apparatus is configured to prevent the loss of certain motor shaft transmission assembly components downhole in the event of a failure of the motor transmission due to dynamic loads.

A connecting device for a chainring of a bicycle is disclosed, including a connecting disc, a shaft, and a crank. The connecting disc is adapted to be engaged with a chainring, and has an axial bore, a bulging portion bulging from a central portion of the connecting disc, and a surrounding portion, which is flat, and surrounds an outer periphery of the bulging portion. The shaft passes through the axial bore to be fixedly engaged with the connecting disc. The shaft has a connecting end. The crank has a connecting end engaged with the connecting end of the shaft, and a bearing end adapted to bear an external force to make the crank rotate around the shaft. Whereby, the amount of materials used to make the connecting device is decreased. At the same time, the manufacturing cost, the size, and the weight of the connecting device are all reduced.

A joint arrangement including a drive member rotatable about a rotation axis, the drive member including a drive member press fit surface and a drive member shape lock structure; an attachment portion having an attachment thread; and a driven member including a driven member press fit surface, a driven member shape lock structure and a through hole; wherein the joint arrangement is configured such that the driven member can be rigidly connected to the drive member by means of a press fit between the drive member press fit surface and the driven member press fit surface by threadingly engaging the attachment thread with an attachment member passing through the through hole; and wherein the joint arrangement is configured such that a shape lock is provided between the drive member shape lock structure and the driven member shape lock structure when the driven member is connected to the drive member.

A first yoke includes a tubular portion extending in a first direction, a flange, and a pair of arms extending from the flange. Support holes for a joint spider are formed at tips of the respective arms. The arms have respective inner surfaces facing each other in a second direction. Each of the inner surfaces includes a first recessed portion and a second recessed portion as viewed in a third direction orthogonal to the first direction and the second direction. The first recessed portions are recessed such that the distance between the inner surfaces of the arms increases from a start end located closer to an opening edge of each support hole toward an end point located closer to a base end of the arm. Each of the second recessed portions connects the end point to an end surface of a flange so as to form a curved surface.

A mixing system includes a housing having a motor mount rotatably coupled thereto, the motor mount having a passage extending therethrough. A drive shaft is removably positioned within the passage of the motor mount. A cap includes a main body removably coupled to the motor mount and an actuator coupled to the main body so as to be pivotable between a first position and a second position with respect to the main body. The actuator producing a camming action when the actuator is pivoted such that when the actuator is in the first position, the actuator pushes the drive shaft against the motor mount so that the main body is locked to the motor mount and so that rotation of the motor mount causes rotation of the drive shaft and when the actuator is in the second position, the actuator is disengaged from the drive shaft and the cap is removable from the motor mount.
