A coupling for axle-suspended installation of a direct drive motor, comprises a wheel axle side adapting flange coaxially fixed with a wheel axle and a motor side adapting flange coaxially fixed with the rotor shaft of a motor, an elastic support rotating assembly, wherein the elastic support rotating assembly is radially connected between the wheel axle side adapting flange and the motor side adapting flange so that the wheel axle side adapting flange and the motor side adapting flange can be coaxially and rotatably connected and bear the weight of the motor along the radial direction through the elastic support rotating assembly, and the wheel axle side adapting flange and the motor side adapting flange are circumferentially elastically connected. It also provides stiffness design method of coupling for axle-suspended installation of direct drive motor.

A fluid level sensor is disclosed. The fluid level sensor has a frame which includes a hollow coupling component that attaches to a fluid drain of a gear case of a locomotive. A lug is insertable into the hollow coupling component that has a first connection end, and an elongated flexible sensor blade is attached to the lug. The flexible sensor blade is inserted into the gear case and used to measure a fluid level of a fluid in the gear case. The fluid level sensor also has a connector having a second connection end attached to the first connection end and a third connection end. A cover is attached to the frame, and the cover has a fourth connection end inside of an aperture of the cover, and the fourth connection end is attached to the third connection end.

A drive includes at least one motor with a drive shaft and at least one output shaft which is in particular mechanically connected to a gear. The drive shaft and the output shaft are aligned substantially axially. The drive shaft and the output shaft each have a coupling portion through which a torque can be transmitted from the drive shaft to the output shaft by mechanical coupling. Each coupling portion is connected to the shaft thereof for rotation therewith and the coupling portions can be mechanically coupled by being axially plugged together.
