Abstract
A coupling for use in transmitting both rotational movement and axial forces from a drive shaft to a driven shaft such as a shaft of a gravure cylinder characterized by a pin member being secured on the axis of both hubs to maintain the spacing between the hubs as a flexible plate arrangement secured to the hubs allows annular misalignment between the axes of the two hubs. The coupling allows side register of the gravure cylinder to be adjusted by shifting the drive shaft in the gear box of the printing press.
