Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of coupling protection, in particular to a distance-limited torque protection coupling. Background Art

[0002] The coupling is an important component of the mechanical transmission system and is often used to connect two shafts or a shaft and a rotating part to transmit torque and motion. Simply put, a coupling is a mechanical part used to connect two shafts in different structures so that they rotate together to transmit torque, and the torque-limiting torque protection coupling can be used in high-speed operation and relatively large transmission drive devices, such as port terminal slewing mechanisms, thermal power plant bucket wheel excavator slewing mechanisms, etc.

[0003] Couplings can generally be divided into two categories: rigid couplings and flexible couplings. However, since rigid couplings have extremely high requirements for the coaxiality of the two axes, flexible couplings are more widely used. Rigid couplings are composed of rigid components and are suitable for occasions where the allowable relative displacement of the two axes is very small. This type of coupling has a simple structure, small size and low cost. However, due to the limitations of its own structural properties, existing couplings are often unable to perform emergency friction protection operations when torque transmission is overloaded, and are not suitable for high-speed, large transmission ratio drive equipment. It is very easy to cause damage to the drive device and the output device, and cannot meet daily use needs. Therefore, it is urgent to design a limited-distance torque protection coupling to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a limited-distance torque protection coupling to solve the problem mentioned in the above background technology that the existing couplings are often unable to perform emergency friction protection operations when the torque transmission is overloaded due to the limitations of their own structural properties, and are not suitable for high-speed and large transmission ratio drive equipment. It is very easy to cause damage to the drive device and the output device and cannot meet the daily use needs.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: a distance-limited torque protection coupling, comprising a torque-limiting protection mechanism, a back frame is provided on the back of the torque-limiting protection mechanism, connecting bolts are provided at the upper and lower ends of the front of the torque-limiting protection mechanism, and first screw holes are provided at the upper and lower ends of the torque-limiting protection mechanism and the back frame;

[0006] A driving end and a driven end, one end of the torque limiting protection mechanism is provided with a driving end, one end of the back frame is provided with a driven end, and second screw holes are provided at the upper and lower ends of the driven end.

[0007] Preferably, a first socket is fixedly connected to one side of the second screw hole at the top end, and a first docking seat is provided on one side of the driven end head at the bottom end.

[0008] Preferably, a positioning thread is provided on the side surface of the driving end head, and a connecting disk is provided at one end of the driving end head.

[0009] Preferably, four corners of one end of the torque limiting protection mechanism are fixedly connected with overhead blocks, and one end of the overhead block is fixedly connected with a limiting collar.

[0010] Preferably, a shrink rubber ring is provided at one end of the torque limiting protection mechanism and the back frame close to each other, and a steel washer is provided at one end of the shrink rubber ring.

[0011] Preferably, a second docking seat is provided at the top end of the back frame, and a second socket is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the back frame.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0013] The distance-limited torque protection coupling, through the torque-limiting protection mechanism, back frame, connecting bolt, first screw hole, driving end head, connecting plate, shrinking rubber ring and steel washer, can make the equipment perform a safer and more stable driving connection operation. In the actual use process, the staff first connects the torque-limiting protection mechanism and back frame to be used to the front and rear ends of the driving end head through the connecting bolt and the first screw hole. At this time, when the driving end head is connected to the driven end head, the connecting plate at one end thereof can be stably connected to the two sets of shrinking rubber rings and steel washers between the torque-limiting protection mechanism and the back frame. When the torque reaches a certain value, the two sets of shrinking rubber rings and steel washers perform force-releasing friction operations on the connecting disk, so that the driving end and the driven end of the coupling slide relative to each other, avoiding torque transmission overload and damage to the driving device and the output device. After the use of this limited-distance torque protection coupling, the damage problem caused by jamming at the output end of the driving device will be completely solved. The cost of mechanical protection mechanism is lower than that of electrical protection mechanism, and the effect of overload protection is obvious. At the same time, it reduces the labor intensity of maintenance personnel, improves the reliability of equipment, and reflects the practicality of equipment design.

[0014] The distance-limited torque protection coupling further improves the overall use effect of the equipment by means of the torque-limiting protection mechanism, back frame, driving end, driven end, second screw hole, first socket, positioning thread, overhead block, limiting collar, second docking seat and second socket. In daily use, the staff can install the torque-limiting protection mechanism on the driving end through the overhead block and the limiting collar, and perform stable installation and fixing operations at the positioning thread provided on the driving end. At the same time, when the driven end is connected to the back of the back frame, stable docking operations can be performed through the first socket on the front and the first docking seat and the second docking seat and the second socket of the remaining back frame. The connection is more firm and stable. After use, the damage frequency of the equipment is effectively reduced. At the same time, the equipment can be quickly disassembled, assembled and maintained, which reduces the labor intensity of employees, reduces a large amount of equipment procurement costs and labor costs, and also reduces the occurrence of equipment defects and the maintenance and overhaul workload of the team, reflecting the comprehensiveness of the equipment design.
