The transversal mobile couplings are used in movement and torque transmission between two main shafts having parallel axis, with the possibility to undertake misalignments in the transversal plane. These shaft misalignments are usually named transversal movements. The paper presents, starting from some kinematic aspects regarding relative movements between the coupling parts, the kinematic equations useful in determining position of the intermediary elements, depending by the transversal misalignments. Following this, using the inside relative movement in rotation joints between parts and corresponding adequate materials, the friction coefficient is studied. The friction which appears in coupling’s rotation joints between the involved parts has an important influence on their dynamic behaviour, wear and lifetime. The most significant friction and also wear is given by the alternant rotation movements in joints between parts, at the ends of their angular stroke. Due to this, the study of the friction between some materials to be used in coupling manufacturing is required, but also difficult because of some particularities, as reduced rotation in joints, for reduced transversal misalignments between the main shafts. There are presented, in the paper final part, the results and conclusions.
