A +α/−α composite web lets a hollow drive shaft stay stiff in torque while flexing under axial and bending loads without separate couplings.
Spring-loaded paired rollers pre-align within telescopic arm rails, easing tight-fit adjustment and improving smooth movement.
A two-stage AFP and heat-compression process forms composite driveshaft flex sections with sharp radii for misalignment and bending.
A multi-start helix hollow shaft preserves wiring space while enabling pure-torque transmission and precise high-speed torque measurement.
Localized shaft deformations under 180° add bending flexibility for misalignment while preserving tubular strength and reducing stress.
Offset-angle composite elements form a hollow web shaft that stays stiff in torque while flexing under axial and bending loads, cutting weight and cost.
A glass-carbon monolithic driveshaft tube cuts weight and noise while preserving natural frequency and torque load capacity.
Offset holes in a composite bellow increase shaft articulation while reducing stiffness, weight, and installation constraints in tight spaces.
Offset holes on both sides of a composite tube bellow increase articulation in tight spaces without adding diameter, length, or extra weight.
