Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a coupling, in particular to a long-spacing drum-shaped gear coupling, belonging to the technical field of transmission equipment. Background Art
[0002] Due to space limitations in the transmission chain of heavy industry equipment, there is a need for extra-long distance torque transmission between the drive and the load. In addition, due to the harsh working conditions, the service life of the coupling is relatively short and requires more frequent replacement.
[0003] In order to meet the transmission requirements of heavy industry equipment, the existing technology is to specially configure an intermediate drive shaft supported by a bearing seat to fill the extra-long distance between the drive and the load. At the same time, the bearing seat also needs to be equipped with an additional base with high rigidity and very high precision to facilitate the installation and positioning of the intermediate drive shaft. In this way, in actual use, ordinary couplings are respectively connected to the drive, intermediate drive shaft and load. This method has the following disadvantages: First, the use of a decentralized transmission structure and on-site assembly is not only very inconvenient and increases the structural cost, but also has low assembly efficiency and requires continuous debugging to ensure coaxial accuracy. Second, if the ordinary coupling needs to be maintained or replaced due to a fault, the equipment or intermediate drive shaft needs to be moved, which not only increases the operation and maintenance cost, but also is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Summary of the Invention

The first inner tooth outer shell is detachably connected to the first shaft sleeve.

The other end of the floating intermediate shaft is matched with the second gear shaft sleeve in an axial hole.

[0010] In the above technical solution, the first shaft sleeve has a connecting flange, which is connected to the flange of the first inner tooth outer shell through locking bolts, and the second shaft sleeve has a connecting flange, which is connected to the flange of the second inner tooth outer shell through locking bolts.
[0011] In the above technical solution, both ends of the floating intermediate shaft have journals, and the journals at both ends of the floating intermediate shaft are respectively matched with the first gear shaft sleeve and the second gear shaft sleeve in the form of shaft holes.

[0015] The two ends of the floating intermediate shaft are respectively provided with a first unilateral flexible coupling unit and a second unilateral flexible coupling unit.

[0024] The first unilateral flexible coupling unit 3 includes a first inner tooth housing 31 and a first gear sleeve 32. One end of the floating intermediate shaft 2 is matched with the first gear sleeve 32 in a shaft hole. The first inner tooth housing 31 is arranged on the outer periphery of the first gear sleeve 32 and forms a sealed connection through sealing. The inner teeth of the first inner tooth housing 31 are engaged with the outer teeth of the first gear sleeve 32. The first inner tooth housing 31 is detachably connected to the first shaft sleeve 1.

The other end of the floating intermediate shaft 2 is matched with the second gear shaft sleeve 42 in an axial hole. The second inner tooth outer shell 41 is arranged on the outer periphery of the second gear shaft sleeve 42 and forms a sealed connection through sealing. The inner teeth of the second inner tooth outer shell 41 are engaged with the outer teeth of the second gear shaft sleeve 42. The second inner tooth outer shell 41 is detachably connected to the second shaft sleeve 5.
[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, in order to prevent the floating intermediate shaft from axially moving during rotation, it can be buffered and limited. The first unilateral flexible coupling unit 3 also includes a first buffering and limiting pad 33, which is arranged between the first shaft sleeve 1 and the first gear sleeve 32. The second unilateral flexible coupling unit 4 also includes a second buffering and limiting pad 43, which is arranged between the second shaft sleeve 5 and the second gear sleeve 42. The buffering and limiting pad is preferably an elastic pad, such as a rubber pad or a silicone pad. Of course, the axial limiting method of the floating intermediate shaft is not limited to this. The inner hole of the end of the gear sleeve can also be set to a tapered hole structure or other methods can be used to achieve the purpose of buffering and limiting.

The journals 21 at both ends of the floating intermediate shaft 2 are respectively matched with the first gear shaft sleeve 32 and the second gear shaft sleeve 42 in the form of shaft holes.
[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, in order to form a good transmission relationship between the drive and the floating intermediate shaft and the load, both ends of the floating intermediate shaft 2 have keys or keyways coaxially arranged with the first shaft sleeve 1 and the second shaft sleeve 5 respectively.
[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, in order to ensure smooth engagement between the inner tooth housing and the gear shaft sleeve and to prevent jamming, the first inner tooth housing 31 and the second inner tooth housing 41 are both provided with injection holes for convenient injection of grease therein, and sealing plugs are provided at the injection holes.
[0031] The utility model simplifies the design of the coupling-related parts of the transmission chain with ultra-long spacing torque transmission, integrates the floating intermediate shaft and the coupling into an integrated structure, eliminates the intermediate transmission shaft structure that requires bearing seat support in the prior art, and also eliminates the additionally configured high-rigidity and very high-precision base, greatly reducing the number of parts, optimizing the design and reducing the cost of use.
[0032] At the same time, the utility model is very convenient to use, improves assembly efficiency, and achieves the purpose of reducing costs and increasing efficiency. When the meshing size of the coupling is worn and needs to be replaced or maintained, there is no need to move the equipment on both sides. The floating intermediate shaft can be directly pulled out as a whole and replaced with a single-sided flexible coupling unit, which greatly increases on-site operability, reduces operation and maintenance costs, and improves maintenance efficiency.
