Abstract
A coupling is designed for use in connecting two shafts such as, for instance, the output shaft of an engine with the input shaft of a pump or similar device. The coupling is formed from a generally cylindrical body having a central bore, the bore having a keyway therein. Dyametrically opposed from the keyway, a radial split is formed in the body of the coupler and the split is bridged and releasably tightenable by one or more bolts or other such fasteners.
