Coupling Features

• Good starting performance can change the load starting of the motor to no-load starting, so as to realize the soft starting of the working machine, reduce the current during starting and reduce the starting energy consumption.
• Save electric energy and equipment cost, which can solve the unreasonable situation of the big horse-drawn trolley with load starting machine, save the motor capacity, improve the power factor and motor efficiency of the grid, reduce reactive power loss, save electric energy, and simplify the motor starting equipment and reduce equipment cost.
• The transferred torque can be adjusted, easy to achieve overload protection.When the working machine is overloaded or jammed, the steel ball type safety coupling will slip automatically, which can prevent the motor from burning out and other parts damage.
• Except for the starting and braking stages, the main and driven parts of the steel ball safety coupling have no speed difference, no friction loss and high transmission efficiency.
• Nonmetallic elastic elements are adopted in the steel ball type safety coupling, which can compensate the offset of the linked 2 axes within a certain range, with a small amount of buffering and damping.
• Reliable operation, stable performance, convenient installation, disassembly and maintenance.

Detailed Photos

Determining the right type of flexible coupling starts with the following analysis of the application:

• Prime mover type (motor, diesel engine, etc.) of the drive side of the system
• Actual horsepower and/or torque requirements, not prime motor-rated horsepower (note the range of variable torque caused by periodic or unstable loads, worst-case starting loads,
• Drive system inertia related to prime mover inertia (data available from equipment supplier)
• vibration, linear and torsional vibration (experienced supplier or consultant can help you evaluate vibration) shaft-to-shaft deviation;
• Note the degree of Angle offset (axis is not parallel) and parallel offset (distance between axis centers when axes are parallel but not aligned);
• Also note whether the drive/driven units share the same floor axial (inside/outside) axial motion,
• whether they share distance (the distance between the drive end and the driven axis), and any other space-related restrictions.

Compensation for Axial, Angular, and Parallel Misalignments with Flexible Gear Couplings

Flexible gear couplings are known for their ability to accommodate various types of misalignments, including axial, angular, and parallel misalignments. Here’s how they compensate for each type:

• Axial Misalignment: Axial misalignment occurs when the two shafts move closer or farther away from each other along the axis of rotation. Flexible gear couplings can absorb this type of misalignment through their flexible design, allowing the gear teeth to articulate and adjust to the axial movement without transmitting harmful forces to the connected equipment.
• Angular Misalignment: Angular misalignment occurs when the two shafts are not collinear and form an angle with each other. Flexible gear couplings can accommodate angular misalignment by allowing the gear teeth to articulate and flex as the shafts are angularly displaced. This flexibility ensures that torque transmission remains smooth and minimizes stress on the coupling and connected equipment.
• Parallel Misalignment: Parallel misalignment happens when the two shafts are offset horizontally while maintaining parallelism. Flexible gear couplings can handle this misalignment by utilizing their flexible elements to adjust to the lateral displacement of the shafts. The ability to compensate for parallel misalignment prevents excessive forces from being transmitted to the machinery, protecting it from damage.

Thanks to their design and material properties, flexible gear couplings provide a reliable solution for compensating for axial, angular, and parallel misalignments, making them suitable for a wide range of applications in various industries.

Design Considerations for Selecting a Flexible Gear Coupling

When selecting a flexible gear coupling for a specific application, several design considerations are crucial to ensure optimal performance and reliability:

• Torque Capacity: Determine the maximum torque requirement of the application and choose a coupling with sufficient torque capacity to handle the transmitted loads without exceeding its limits.
• Speed: Consider the operating speed of the machinery and select a coupling that can handle the rotational speed without generating excessive heat or vibrations.
• Misalignment Tolerance: Assess the expected misalignment between the shafts in the system and choose a coupling that can accommodate both angular and parallel misalignments within acceptable limits.
• Service Environment: Evaluate the working conditions, including temperature, humidity, and the presence of corrosive agents, and select a coupling made from materials suitable for the specific environment.
• Space Limitations: Take into account the available space for the coupling installation and choose a compact design that fits within the available constraints.
• Alignment Maintenance: Consider the ease of alignment and maintenance requirements of the selected coupling. Some couplings may require more frequent maintenance than others.
• Backlash: Evaluate the application’s tolerance for backlash (angular play) in the coupling and select a design that meets the required precision.
• Torsional Stiffness: Determine the need for torsional stiffness in the system to avoid torsional vibrations and ensure accurate torque transmission.
• Resonance Avoidance: Identify potential resonance frequencies in the system and choose a coupling that helps avoid resonance, preventing amplified vibrations.
• Cost: Consider the budget constraints and compare the cost-effectiveness of different coupling options while ensuring the selected coupling meets all the necessary requirements.

By carefully considering these design factors, engineers and designers can choose the most suitable flexible gear coupling for their specific application, ensuring smooth operation, reduced maintenance, and extended equipment lifespan.

Accommodating Misalignment and Reducing Vibrations in Flexible Gear Couplings

Flexible gear couplings use an elastomeric flexible element, often made of high-quality rubber, to connect the two gear hubs. This design allows the coupling to accommodate misalignment between the connected shafts and reduce vibrations during operation.

1. Misalignment Accommodation: The flexible nature of the elastomeric element allows it to bend and flex as the shafts move out of alignment. Flexible gear couplings can accommodate three main types of misalignment:

• Angular Misalignment: Occurs when the shafts are not parallel and are at an angle to each other.
• Parallel Misalignment: Occurs when the shafts are not in a straight line but are parallel to each other.
• Axial Misalignment: Occurs when the shafts are displaced along their axis.

The ability to handle these types of misalignment is crucial in various industrial applications where machinery may experience movement, thermal expansion, or other dynamic forces.

2. Vibration Reduction: The elastomeric material in the flexible gear coupling acts as a damping mechanism. It absorbs and dissipates vibrations and shocks generated during operation. This damping effect helps in reducing noise levels and protects the connected equipment from damage caused by excessive vibrations.

Overall, the combination of misalignment accommodation and vibration reduction in flexible gear couplings contributes to improved system reliability, reduced maintenance requirements, and extended machinery life.
