It is required to connect two parallel shafts, the distance between whose axes are small and variable. They can be coupled by Correct Answer Oldham coupling

Explanation:

Oldham’s coupling

Oldham’s coupling is an inversion of the double slider-crank mechanism, which is used to connect two parallel shafts the distance between whose axes are small and variable. Hence option (d) is the correct option.
