Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of couplings and relates to a shaft sleeve used on a coupling and a coupling. Background Art

[0002] As an important component for connecting two shafts to transmit torque, the performance and reliability of the coupling are of vital importance. In existing couplings, the sleeve is usually clamped by screws.

[0003] This clamping method has some obvious problems in actual use. On the one hand, the locking screw has a chance to fly out. When the coupling is running at high speed or subjected to large vibrations, the screw may loosen and gradually lose its tightening force, eventually causing it to fly out. This will not only cause safety hazards to surrounding equipment and personnel, but may also cause equipment failures and affect the normal production process.

[0004] On the other hand, when the coupling needs to be disassembled, the sleeve and the shaft are often clamped together, making the disassembly of the sleeve extremely inconvenient. This is because during long-term use, friction, wear and corrosion may occur between the shaft and the sleeve, and the screw clamping method may make the sleeve and the shaft more tightly connected. Disassembly requires a lot of time and effort, and may even require the use of professional tools and equipment, which increases maintenance costs and work difficulty. Moreover, during the disassembly process, if the operation is improper, it may also cause damage to the shaft and sleeve, further affecting the service life and performance of the coupling.

[0005] In summary, the existing coupling sleeve adopts the screw clamping method, which has the risk of the locking screw flying out and the problem of inconvenience in disassembly. There is an urgent need for a coupling sleeve design that is safer, more reliable and easier to disassemble to meet the needs of practical applications. Utility Model Content

[0041] In the present invention, unless otherwise specified, the directional words used, such as "up, down, top, bottom", usually refer to the directions shown in the drawings, or to the components themselves in the vertical, perpendicular or gravity directions; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "inside and outside" refer to the inside and outside relative to the outline of each component itself, but the above-mentioned directional words are not used to limit the present invention. Example

[0042] See also Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, a shaft sleeve 1 used on a coupling is intended to solve the problems existing in the use of the existing coupling shaft sleeve.

[0043] The sleeve mainly includes a sleeve body 11, and an axial hole 12 extending to both ends is opened at the center of the sleeve body 11. The axial hole is used to install the shaft to realize the transmission function of the coupling. The sleeve body 11 located outside the axial hole 12 has a first clamping part 111 and a second clamping part 112 that can be radially clamped. The two clamping parts are locked and connected by bolts 3, and bolt holes for the bolts 3 to be placed are provided on the first clamping part 111 and the second clamping part 112.

[0044] In order to effectively prevent the bolt 3 from flying out during use, the sleeve is specially provided with a positioning pin 2. The positioning pin 2 on the sleeve body 11 passes through the bolt hole and is spaced apart from the bolt head when the bolt is in a locked state. The positioning pin 2 is located on the movement trajectory of the bolt 3. When the bolt has a tendency to move backward, the positioning pin 2 can play a blocking role, thereby ensuring that the bolt 3 is always in a stable state during use and will not fly out due to the operation vibration of the coupling or other factors. This design greatly improves the safety of the coupling and avoids possible damage to surrounding equipment and personnel caused by the bolt flying out.

[0045] Specifically, the number of bolt holes in this embodiment is two, namely, a first bolt hole 17 and a second bolt hole 18. The two bolt holes are distributed on both sides of the shaft hole 12, and can provide a stable fastening force for the clamping of the sleeve body 11. A bolt head mounting groove is provided at one end of each bolt hole, and the bolt 3 is inserted from the bolt head mounting groove. This design makes the installation of the bolt more convenient and can also ensure that the bolt will not deviate during use.

[0046] The locating pin 2 is inserted into the bolt head installation groove from top to bottom, playing a key role in preventing the bolt from flying out. The sleeve body 11 is provided with locating pin holes 19-1 and 19-2 for placing the locating pin 2. One end of the locating pin holes 19-1 and 19-2 is exposed on the upper end surface of the sleeve body 11, which is convenient for installing the locating pin. The other end is located below the bolt head installation groove, so that the locating pin can accurately block the backward movement of the bolt.

[0047] The locating pin 2 is installed in the corresponding locating pin hole by interference fit. The interference fit can ensure that the locating pin is firmly positioned after installation, and the locating pin will not loosen or fall off even when the coupling is running at high speed or subjected to large vibration. This stable installation method provides reliable guarantee for the safe operation of the coupling.

[0048] Preferably, the locating pin holes 19-1 and 19-2 are axially arranged. This axially arranged structure has many advantages. First, it is convenient for processing the locating pin holes, which can reduce the processing difficulty and cost during the manufacturing process and improve production efficiency. Secondly, for the assembly of the locating pin 2, the axial arrangement makes the assembly process smoother, can ensure that the locating pin is accurately inserted into the locating pin hole, and improves the accuracy and reliability of the assembly.

[0049] Specifically, the side end of the shaft hole 12 is provided with a first slit 13 and a second slit 14 extending outward. Both slits extend to the outer end of the sleeve body 11, so that the sleeve can better adapt to the size change of the shaft during installation and use, and also provide a basis for the formation of the clamping part.

[0050] The side end of the sleeve body 11 is also provided with a third slit 15 and a fourth slit 16 which are arranged opposite to each other. The lower end of the first slit 13 is connected to the third slit 15, and the lower end of the second slit 14 is connected to the fourth slit 16. Through such a design, the shaft hole 12 and the first slit 13, the second slit 14, the third slit 15 and the fourth slit 16 are surrounded to form a first clamping part 111 and a second clamping part 112. Under the action of the bolt 3, these two clamping parts can tightly hold the shaft to ensure the effective transmission of torque.

[0051] Among them, the first slit 13 and the second slit 14 are in the same straight line. This design allows the sleeve to be more evenly stressed when clamping the shaft, thereby improving the stability of clamping. The third slit 15 and the fourth slit 16 are arranged horizontally and at the same height, so that the structure of the entire sleeve is more regular and convenient for processing and installation. At the same time, the first slit 13 and the third slit 15 are at a right angle of 90 degrees, and the second slit 14 and the fourth slit 16 are also at a right angle of 90 degrees. This right-angle structure not only increases the strength and stability of the sleeve, but also enables the clamping part to better resist torque and vibration when clamping the shaft. In actual use, this structural design can effectively improve the working efficiency and reliability of the coupling and reduce the occurrence of equipment failures.

[0052] In this embodiment, the bolt hole is bounded by the first slit 13 or the second slit 14, presenting different structural features. The bolt hole close to the bolt head installation slot has no internal thread, which makes the bolt insertion smoother and reduces the resistance during installation. The bolt hole away from the bolt head installation slot is provided with an internal thread that meshes with the bolt 3. This design can ensure that the bolt is tightly combined with the sleeve body after tightening, providing a stable clamping force for the first clamping portion 111 and the second clamping portion 112.

[0053] The bolt head has a hexagonal groove, which is convenient for the staff to use tools for installation and removal operations. At the same time, the installation position of the positioning pin 2 deliberately avoids the hexagonal groove, which will not affect the installation and removal of the bolt, and can give full play to the role of the positioning pin to prevent the bolt from flying out during use.

[0054] When the sleeve 1 needs to be removed from the shaft, the staff can use the corresponding tools to rotate the bolt 3. In the process of rotating the bolt 3, due to the position restriction of the positioning pin 2, the bolt 3 cannot be completely withdrawn, but will push the first clamping part 111 and the second clamping part 112 to gradually open. As the clamping parts open, the clamping force between the sleeve and the shaft gradually decreases, making it easier to remove the shaft from the sleeve 1. This disassembly method is simple and convenient, without the need for complex tools and equipment, and greatly improves the maintenance efficiency of the sleeve.

[0055] In summary, the bolt 3 connects the first clamping portion 111 and the second clamping portion 112, so that the sleeve 1 can firmly hold the shaft, ensuring effective transmission of torque. During installation and removal, the sleeve and the shaft can be quickly installed and removed by operating the bolt 3 and the positioning pin 2, thereby improving work efficiency.

[0056] like Figure 3 A plum blossom type coupling assembly structure as shown and Figure 4 The diaphragm type coupling assembly structures shown all use the shaft sleeve 1 in this embodiment. The application of this shaft sleeve brings many advantages to the assembly and use of the coupling.

[0057] During the assembly process, first insert one end of the shaft 4 into the shaft hole of the sleeve 1. The size of the shaft hole has been carefully designed to fit closely with the shaft 4 to ensure the stability of the connection. Then, screw the bolt 3 into the corresponding bolt hole and tighten it. The reasonable distribution and design of the bolt holes can provide uniform clamping force for the sleeve, so that the sleeve can firmly hold the shaft 4. After tightening the bolt 3, assemble the locating pin 2. The installation of the locating pin 2 can effectively prevent the bolt 3 from flying out during use. At the same time, the installation of the locating pin 2 will not affect the normal operation of the coupling, ensuring the reliability and safety of the coupling.

[0058] After the above steps, the assembly of the coupling is completed. During use, the coupling using the new sleeve 1 can effectively avoid the risk of bolts flying out. Due to the presence of the locating pin 2, the bolt 3 will not loosen or fly out even when the coupling is running at high speed or subjected to large vibrations, thereby avoiding safety hazards to surrounding equipment and personnel. In addition, when the coupling needs to be disassembled, the design of this sleeve also makes the disassembly process more convenient. The staff only needs to loosen the bolt 3 to easily remove the sleeve from the shaft 4. Compared with the traditional coupling sleeve, this design greatly reduces the difficulty and workload of disassembly and improves maintenance efficiency.
