An integrated drive shaft mainly refers to a device that connects two shafts or a shaft and a rotating component. During operation, it rotates synchronously in the process of transmitting motion and power and does not disengage under normal conditions. Below is an introduction to the key functions of integrated drive shafts:

As a commonly used product, the integrated drive shaft also serves as a safety device to prevent connected mechanical parts from bearing excessive loads, thus providing overload protection. It acts as a high-precision connection interface between shafts, functioning as a mechanical component that firmly connects the driving shaft and driven shaft in different mechanisms to rotate synchronously and transmit motion and torque.

With a relatively simple structure, it usually consists of two halves—each connected to the respective shaft ends via keys or interference fits, then joined together through specific means. These basic points are essential for proper usage. Additionally, the integrated drive shaft can compensate for deviations between two shafts caused by manufacturing/installation inaccuracies, deformation during operation, or thermal expansion, while also mitigating shocks and absorbing vibrations.

We specialize in the R&D, production, and sales of various automotive drive shafts, providing one-stop solutions for industry clients.
Most integrated drive shafts are standardized or normalized. Generally, it only requires selecting the correct type and determining the appropriate model and size—basic information to confirm during procurement. If necessary, load capacity verification calculations for vulnerable parts are recommended. For high-speed operation, it is also necessary to check the centrifugal force at the outer edge, deformation of elastic elements, and perform balance verification.

In use, the core function of the integrated drive shaft is to transmit torque through rotation. Under high-speed power transmission, it offers buffering and vibration-damping capabilities, ensuring a long service life and reliable working efficiency. Installed between the driving side and driven side of power transmission systems, it transfers rotational torque while compensating for inter-shaft installation deviations, absorbing equipment vibrations, and buffering load impacts.
