    摘要: A method includes disposing a first shaft and a second shaft in an end to end arrangement, positioning a sleeve over the end to end arrangement, coupling the sleeve to the first shaft via a first set of fasteners extending through a first set of radial holes in the sleeve and into the first shaft, coupling the sleeve to the second shaft via a second set of fasteners extending through a second set of radial holes in the sleeve and into the second shaft, and allowing the sleeve to self adjust the alignment between the first shaft and the second shaft while transmitting torsional, translational, or torsional and translational loading through the first set of fasteners and the second set of fasteners.

    摘要: A method includes disposing a first shaft and a second shaft in an end to end arrangement, positioning a sleeve over the end to end arrangement, coupling the first shaft to the second shaft via the sleeve and a plurality of shear components that engage the sleeve and partially recess into the first shaft or the second shaft, retaining the plurality of shear components in the partially recessed position via one or more retaining mechanisms, and independently aligning the first shaft and the second shaft while transmitting torsional, translational, or torsional and translational loading through the plurality of shear components and not through the retaining mechanisms.

    摘要: A replaceable seat pocket assembly for a valve includes a first portion configured to couple the replaceable seat pocket assembly to a valve body within a recess of the valve, and a second portion coupled to said first portion and configured for engagement with said valve body. The replaceable seat pocket assembly may provide an interface between a valve seat and the valve body.

    摘要: An adjustable pipe spool includes an outer body, an inner body at least partially disposed within the outer body, an adjustment ring rotationally coupled to the inner body, a lock ring rotationally coupled to the outer body and engaging the adjustment ring, a rotation key maintained within the outer body by the lock ring, the rotation key extending into a slot in the inner body. The inner body is axially translatable with respect to the outer body between a retracted configuration and an extended configuration, and the inner body is rotationally adjustable with respect to the outer body in the extended configuration.
