The limiting groove 24 and the limiting ring 23 can position and limit the insertion position of the half-coupling 1, thereby ensuring that after the half-coupling 1 is positioned, the external gear sleeve 7 can be aligned with the inner gear 8, thus realizing the quick installation of the gear coupling. After installation, fix the connecting sleeves 5 on both sides. During fixing, bring the connecting flanges 3 on both sides closer together and align the left positioning pin 22 with the right positioning groove 21. Insert the positioning pin 22 into the positioning groove 21. After insertion, all the mounting holes 6 will be aligned.
